Our cottage had character, a cute beachy vibe! The beach is a block away, as promised, and it’s easy to carry the chairs and umbrella. There’s also a wheeled cart to take everything to the beach. Our host immediately responded when we had a problem with a malfunctioning umbrella, and a replacement was provided that same day. Several restaurants are within walking distance, and there are two fabulous places for breakfast right down the street. The beach was awesome, not very crowded. We treated ourselves to one night at a nearby hotel so we could enjoy a pool for a couple of days, as we checked in at the hotel early, and hung out at the pool the day we checked out, too. Downtown Cocoa Beach has an old school feel. We had a great beach vacation!
