Perfect location!

Very nice house with a beautiful pool and kitchen! Beds were very comfortable! 4 adults and 1 10yr old were there during our stay and we all had plenty of space! Space Coast complex was the reason for our visit but the Kennedy Space Center was also on the list, this place was located perfectly for that. 15 mins to both places. If we had to go back to Space Coast this is where I hope to stay again!

View of the rocket launch from the pool

We had a wonderful weekend stay on Merritt Island. The home has a lovely pool and outdoor patio for relaxing and dining. I love the en suite bathroom for the master and the entrance to lanai from the master. House has everything you need! Also we saw a rocket launch from the house how cool!

The property overall was good. The pool was great and the kids loved it. Location was very convenient for our needs and the neighborhood in general, quiet. That said, there is room for improvement. It is clear that it is getting a bit rundown and there is some maintenance that needs to happen in general. Please note the following insofar as specifics:– Water feature ponds were not working and looked to be in need of repair. In addition, mosquito tablets should be used as the mosquitos were out of control once the sun started going down.– Grill needs to get a good scrubbing and clean on the grates. I suggest this be done after every booking.– Large bedroom with King Mattress, Mattress needs to be replaced. It sags in the center making it uncomfortable for more than one person to sleep on.– Hall shower stall floor tile is very slippery. I would seek out a way to remediate this as it posses a HUGE liability risk.– Too many cockroaches were found. While I understand this is FL, and being from HI I know cockroaches are unavoidable, I would work to mitigate their presence inside. The other family I shared the property with was completely freaked out by them.– Kitchen Countertops: This is more a long-term suggestion, I would advocate replacing them with the same granite used on the island. Wooden countertops, given the amount of use they get for a rental, is not a great idea.Regardless, overall, good property. I enjoyed the convenience it provided us.
