Newly Built Cocoa Beach Escape: 1 Block to Beach!

Reviews

• Unfortunately it was not a great experience

  2/5

  The location is perfect, just a block from the beach and great restaurants. The unit itself is like the pictures. Unfortunately however we were really disappointed with our experience. Seems this was once a 10 out of 10 property under different ownership but it has gone way down hill since someone else took it over I suspect. From reading other recent reviews we realized that the long list of maintenance issues we experienced are repeat complaints. Plumbing issues, drains not draining, standing water in tub and sinks. Washer broken. Shower had built up grime and mold, so gross. Extremely poor internet connection so tv streaming was no go. No thought put into basic items like beach stuff and house supplies. Beach chair was rusted and old. Beach sun shade was trash. Paper towels were pretty much out when we arrived with no resupply. Complimentary toiletries were just a random selection of a few very basic items, no conditioner. Really cheap single ply toilet paper, maybe provided because of unreliable plumbing. On the day we arrived we asked the host for help with some of the major items. She admitted that there was a major water leak recently and she apologized for conditions not being up to par. I appreciated her honesty and looked forward to having the drains snaked like she said. However they were never taken care of during our 5 day stay. Except for providing a few more towels, none of the issues we raised were addressed.

• Great location

  4/5

  Would definitely stay again because of the location. Nice and quite. Everything within walking distance. Few things that needed improvement were the beach items. There were no beach towels to use dispite it saying there would be. The beach chairs were old, rusty and in bad shape. Beach umbrella was completely worn out. We ended up buying a new beach chair and umbrella but had to leave it there due to us flying to florida. Cleaning could also be improved.

• Close to everything

  4/5

  We enjoyed the condo- 1 block away from the beach and able to walk to any kind of restaurant. The beds were comfy. Able to sit on the patio for morning coffee or evening drinks. Just a few small issues that I brought to the owners attention.

  Great property. Few glitches but they were addressed quickly. The property manager was very kind and responsive.

  Definitely as advertised, and would book again if some issues are corrected. The washing machine did not work and locked out clothes inside. Our contact agent was notified promptly but did not respond for almost 8 hours. Using online forums for the appliance we were able to find the breakers and manipulate the unit enough to release our clothes. We didn't trust it to use again. We washed elsewhere and used the dryer in the unit which works well.

  Hall bathroom sink does not have hot water, which is odd. We did not notify our agent. There is hot water everywhere else, and showers are great.

  The master bath was not cleaned thoroughly, with a lot of hair from previous guests in the shower and around the toilet area. The rest of the unit was very clean, including the grounds outside despite it being in a high traffic area. We liked coming in to a fresh mint smell, we presume from a diffuser. One of us smelled a light smell of smoke possibly from previous guests, while the other did not.

  The unit is nicely appointed and easily accommodated us for our long weekend.

  We would definitely rent again if the issues above are corrected.
