It is a mere 3 miles to Port Canaveral, 2.5 miles to the Cocoa Beach Pier, and 17 miles to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

For stays starting between November 15 and March 15, the pool can be heated to 75 degrees. For these stays, there is an additional $65/day charge to heat the pool (minimum 5 day charge). This optional charge applies only if you choose to have the pool heated during your stay. This is charged to you as an additional fee after your stay.

Awesome Getaway

Had a great stay! The first thing that hit us when we walked in was "Wow! This place is CLEAN!". Yes...I know that's the expectation, but we were impressed. The house is nestled in a neighborhood that is walking distance to the beach. By shear luck, we managed to be in town for three launches from the Kennedy Space Center. Cocoa Beach area is a touristy but not too touristy. Host was very responsive to any questions or issues and made sure our stay was memorable! If we're back in the Cocoa Beach area, we'd definitely stay again.

Beautiful, spacious, well-equipped home. Loved all the extra thoughtful touches like a welcome basket of goodies in the kitchen and bathroom. Everything you need for pool and beach. Just a 5 minute walk to beach. Owner was quick to respond to questions. We love the Cape. Watching the Port activity. Great restaurants, breweries, distillery nearby We will be back for sure.

The property was awesome!

We had a wonderful week at this property. It had everything that we needed and more. Close proximity to the beach was nice. The pool and hot tub were a hit with everybody. The pictures of the house don’t do it justice - it is beautiful! Upon arrival, we couldn’t find the remote for the main TV. We reached out to the owner and he immediately ordered a new one and delivered it to us on a holiday. Amazing! We will definitely stay here again when we’re in the area!

Sea Turtle Cottage - A hidden gem

Our family stayed at this property for a week during Christmas vacation 2022. The property was beautiful; even better than the pictures! Check-in was a breeze. The property management was awesome. The beach was a super short walk from the property. We took so many pics and videos of the peacocks that casually stroll around the neighborhood. The neighborhood was peaceful and had a really chill/cool vibe. The Kennedy Space center was an easy drive from the property. This property is in a great location! We even spent a day at Universal. An hour's drive, but worth it! It is a hidden gem and a great place to recharge and relax! Will definitely book again!

Family Friendly + Close to Beach

The house is spacious, giving a family plenty of room to spread out or come together for a movie and dinner. It’s a quick 3 minute walk down the street to the beach. There’s a beach wagon in the garage that made the trip so much easier. The host provided beach chairs, toys, and towels. The gunite pool was a treat. It is small, but does the trick for a refreshing dip. The host has put a lot of thought into the home’s setup. From the front door keypad making check in a breeze to ceiling fans in every room. The kitchen is fully stocked and the oversized pantry/laundry room gave our family all the amenities we needed for our vacation.

It was great in every respect.

Everything went without a glitch. The cottage had everything we had hoped for and more. The host was easy to contact, helpful and interested in us having a good time. The cottage was very clean, roomy and very comfortable. The pool was exceptionally clean and relaxing. The cottage location was also a plus : an hour from Disney parks and many of the other Orlando area attractions and approximately 30 minutes from the Kennedy Space Center. In short - we all had a great time and will not hesitate to rent the cottage again on a future Florida visit.

Perfect house for our family

The house was perfect for our family - in a quiet neighborhood and minutes from the beach. Loved having the pool for quieter evenings at home, too. Short drive to Kennedy Space Center and lots of other activities in the area. We are a family of 6, with older teens and the house fit us perfectly. Communication with the host was quick and easy. Many thanks to Neal for a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Jeanne Schroeder

Host profile image
Our family moved to Florida about 10 years ago and love being in Central Florida. It is convenient to many Theme parks, several wonderful beaches on the Atlantic, and fabulous relaxing beaches on the Gulf. Recently, we decided to spend more time at the Ocean and found this amazing Cottage.

Why they chose this property

This property has a wonderful private pool and spa. The dark bottom of the pool helps the water get warm quickly. The Cottage has safe, quick access to the ocean at Peacock beach. There are no busy roads to cross, with just a short stroll through a quiet residential neighborhood to get to the Peacock Beach entrance. The beach access is through an amazing "secret" garden entrance w/ public parking and no stairs in order to reach the sand. The beach is quiet with locals and families enjoying this semi-private beach. The sands are also quite wide even at high tide.

What makes this property unique

This is a unique property, where guests can safely walk to the beach w/o crossing any busy roads. This is very unique in Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach where it is necessary to cross busy roads from most rental properties.
