Step out into the Florida sunshine and feel the Space Coast come alive around you. This Merritt Island home puts you minutes from Cocoa Beach, Kennedy Space Center, and Port Canaveral - with a private pool and fully fenced backyard waiting for you each time you return. Whether you're here for a family vacation, a group getaway, or a workcation, everything you need is already in place.
⠀
Living space
The bright, open living area is set up for easy relaxation, anchored by updated furniture and a large smart TV. When you need to spread out, the bonus office doubles as extra sleeping space - fitted with a queen sleeper sofa and a dedicated workspace, so remote work or an overflow guest is never a problem.
⠀
Sleeping arrangements
Three bedrooms sleep up to eight guests comfortably. The primary bedroom has a queen bed and a private ensuite. The second bedroom holds a queen bed, and the third has two single beds. All three bedrooms include ceiling fans and smart TVs for a restful night in.
⠀
Kitchen & dining
The fully stocked kitchen has everything you need to cook from scratch or throw together a quick meal - refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender, toaster, and full cooking basics. Dining inside is easy with the dedicated dining table, and outside, a BBQ grill and outdoor dining set let you take full advantage of the fenced backyard.
⠀
Backyard & pool
The private pool and fully fenced, tropically landscaped yard are the heart of this home. Swim laps, fire up the grill, or settle into the outdoor furniture as the afternoon stretches on. Beach essentials - including towels, an umbrella, a beach blanket, and snorkeling gear - are provided so your days at Cocoa Beach start without a trip to the store. Bikes are also available for exploring the neighborhood.
⠀
Bathrooms
Two full bathrooms, one of which is a private ensuite off the primary bedroom. Both are stocked with shampoo, body soap, hair dryer, and cleaning products.
⠀
Practical details
The home is single-level with no stairs - easy for all ages and mobility needs. Self check-in via smart lock keeps arrival flexible. Free parking is available on premises. The washer and dryer are in-unit, and the home includes all essentials: towels, bed linens, extra pillows and blankets, iron, hangers, and clothing storage. Families will find a pack-n-play, children's books and toys, children's dinnerware, and board games already on hand. Exterior security cameras are present at the front and back of the property.
⠀
