    The beach front view and the beach was awesome! If the jet tub worked this place is a 5 but we did go there for the jet tub. The place was clean and beautiful. Well equipped. The area and most of all the beach is beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and plan on coming back!
    Great views clean unit needs new skillets and kitchen items, we really enjoyed our vacation. They did close the pool very early, 7:30 one day and they weren’t very nice about it. I was very disappointed.
    It was a wonderful vacation. We spent one day at Universal and one day at Disney. The drive was about an hour each way and very easy. The condo was wonderfully stocked with beach chairs for us to use. Beautiful view of the ocean 24/7. We even saw a rocket launch from our balcony! Everything thing you need is close by. The owner was kind and responsive. Booked it for next year!
    The condo was spacious and had private beach access. It also had an entire closet full of beach items such as chairs, umbrellas, a cooler, beach toys, fishing poles, etc. Sunrises over the Atlantic were splendid!
    Great place to stay. The owner takes exceptional care of the property and is very close to the surf.

    It was close to downtown, the beach and the porch area was amazing.
    Beautifully updated interior and it was the perfect size for just the 2 of us. The location was fantastic, breathtaking view from the unit and lots to do within walking distance. Communication with the hosts was great, they made our planning process easy and gave great advice & recommendations.
    Being originally from Maui Hawaii we wanted to stay right on the beach to celebrate our anniversary in a “surf town” atmosphere. This place was perfect! It was close to restaurants and shops. And of course beachfront view was the bonus!! We had great communication with Owners (Bill & Jean). The apartments is alittle older on the outside but the unit inside was very cute and beachy decor, I thought it was very cozy. We definitely would look forward to a future trip and we would definitely stay here again. It had everything we needed. Aloha, Wayne & Merlina
    The location of this property was excellent. However there are some things that I would like to bring to the attention of. The outside of the condo was not in good shape. There was a pile of broken & scattered beach toys and chairs that was quite an eye sore. I ended up straightening up this area (so I didn’t have to look at it) throwing away broken items and I even bought a new umbrella to replace the broken one as it is needed for use on the beach. If they are using a cleaning service to clean before new arrivals, I think they should fire them. The place was clean for the most part, but it was like it was quick cleaned and there was not attention to detail. The baseboards were dirty, there were previous guests leftovers in the fridge. Having left over drinks, waters commendations, is nice but I do not want to see half eaten food left in there. I also cleaned that out when we removed our own trash. Needless to say we left it in better shape than we found it. Now, lets talk about the positive.The location is excellent! having beach access was a great perk.we were able to walk to many restaurants,bars and shopping. There was even a community cat that would visit us while we sat out and had our morning coffee. I would recommend to anyone who likes convenience to stay here. It was perfect size for the 3 of us.
    Perfect location. Lovely stay.

    Having lived in Florida for many years before moving to NC, the prospect of a major hurricane aimed at Florida’s west coast was a significant concern. The condo is very nice and the porch and view are fabulous. Paying for 7 days, we wanted to work through it but as the track changed, our one day at the beach changed to preparing to leave..lfinally fear of not being able to get back to NC before it hit here made our choice easy and very wise. Stephanie was helpful and a great owner. Hoping the trip insurance comes through…renters must take the risk and May end up paying the price for bad luck
    Beautiful condo on a great beach. Wonderful for our 3 yr old grandson to come with us. He loved the pool too! The condo had everything we needed!
    We, a family of four, stayed for a long weekend. It was great, nice views, straight to the beach. The owner/manager was really great and the communication was perfect.
    The view, the location, everything was great but the amenities provided by the host were steps above what we normally find in a rental.
    We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The view is amazing and we loved spending time on the deck. The condo was as described in the listing and was quite comfortable. The beach access is easy and the beach itself is great. The location provides easy access to A1A and there were several good restaurants in the area. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in Cocoa Beach.

    This condo was just what I needed. Such a cute place directly on the beach. It was clean and had everything I needed for my short stay. The parking space for the condo is right by the front door. Once I parked I didn’t have to drive anywhere as there are multiple restaurants within walking distance. I will stay here again!
    The condo was amazing! Everything was spotless and the view was incredible just like in the description! Walking distance to everything ! We will definitely be back soon!!!
    We have stayed here multiple times and have never been disappointed. It’s the perfect getaway spot.
    Location of property is within walking distance to everything you need. Beach access, comfortable set up and very friendly owner!
    This was amazing. Perfect for three people. The room was so clean and had everything needed. The owner was absolutely wonderful and was on top of it all. The view was stunning and room was so quaint. Literally a short stroll to the beach and not crowded at all. Recommendations from the owner were spot on and we hit every eatery recommended and oh so yummy. She had beach accessories and even sunscreen in the cabinet. I needed a bandaid and yes – she had that as well. From the beach towels to the toothbrushes – just fantastic. I’ve never stayed in a vrbo that was this clean and had all the little things. We can not wait to return and stay again. Thanks again Marcia for the best family vacation we could have asked for.

    Keith was great to deal with, he had all the extras in the condo. I will highly recommend others to stay here and will hopefully be back soon!
    Very comfortable and well equipped.
    The condo is just as it was shown. Had everything you would need and then some. It was great. The on-site management was good also. There was a problem with the gate going out to the beach. We made one call and it was fixed. It was good all the way around.
    Keith communicated timely and with needed details The property was “as advertised”. We always enjoy our stays at Sand Castles and this time was no different
    We were highly impressed about the cleanliness and the condition of this home. It was absolutely beautiful inside and breathtaking views outside. Excellent communication with the owner. We are so glad we chose this home.

    I think this is our 5th time staying at this apartment and the first time we have stayed for a month. It is such a great apartment in a perfect location for the beach and downtown bars and restaurants. Marisa and Jonathan are great hosts and always respond in a timely manner to any questions. I would recommend this apartment without hesitation.Sue and Neil
    This condo was the perfect vacation spot to get so many different experiences that Cocoa Beach has to offer! The hosts are very friendly and helpful. Check in and out process is super easy. There is absolutely everything you’d need from kitchen to beach essentials! This is definitely a must place to stay at if you’re vacationing in Cocoa Beach!
    Property is fantastic, everything you could for from a beach condo.
    We absolutely loved everything about our stay here! The check in process was super easy. The condo is in the perfect location and the view is beautiful! Everything was clean and the condo is very spacious. We have 3 small children (7 months, 3, and 5) so we brought a ton of kid gear that we really didn’t need to because Marisa has a lot of things at the condo already! There was a pack n play, cot, baby feeding seat, and tons of beach toys. There’s a grassy area right outside the balcony that was perfect for our kids to run and burn energy without having to pack up to go on the beach or to the park. There are carts in the parking garage and an elevator to make unloading the car incredibly easy. I highly recommend this condo for your next family vacation-you won’t regret it! This condo was perfect for our young family.
    Property was in great location. Unit is well kept and comfortable.

    Day one the building has a strange odor and so did the condo. There was a roach crawling around the master bedroom. Shower and tubs needs replacing. The condo barely looked like the pictures. Then was construction next door so I was awaken out my sleep extremely early due to this. There was dirty towels just sitting on the washer.
    Great location, condo was clean but could use a deep clean and light maintenance (bulbs out/missing, bathroom fan didn’t work), I needed to buy a few items that I typically find in a condo such as hangers and cups with lids for the pool/beach. Pool was very clean and view was beautiful! Photos need updated as the ones in the listing don’t match current look. Check in and check out was a breeze!!
    The condo was very clean. The ocean views were amazing. The condo was stocked with towels, and anything you needed for your beach days. Location of condo was perfect and walking distance to many restaurants and stores. Personal garage parking space for the condo was perfect! We would definitely book again.
    The condo’s location was excellent and the building was quiet. The building is old but still functional. The only thing that really needs to improve is getting in touch with renters at least the day before. I had to send a message to get the physical address and directions on how to get into the unit.
    Great location, beautiful view and very clean!

    Unit is clean and spacious. The panoramic ocean view is breathtaking! Lots of kitchen gadgets for cooking. Plenty of towels including beach towels. Owner is nice, accommodating and prompt. Definitely recommend!
    From the moment we walked in, it felt perfect. Beautifully appointed, well maintained, and all the extra (beach towels, towels chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc) made this a ‘settle in and have fun’ kind of trip. The wrap balcony made for some amazing sunrises and relaxing evenings. Jill was easy to reach and able to handle any questions we had. Check in and out was a breeze. Thanks for making our last family trip amazing before taking my son across country to college. There are so many things to do, from renting surf boards just down the street, fantastic fishing from the jetty, night kayak tours through the banana river waters and we even saw a SPaceX launch from Cape Canaveral from the comfort of our balcony and beach!!
    We had a great stay at Sandcastles 611. The condo had all the amenities to make for a great stay!
    One of the most well equipped properties I have stayed at on the beach. You truly don’t need anything but your swimsuit. Jill was wonderful to work with and very responsive. Great location with lots of restaurants close by.
    Great communication from the property manager. Gorgeous view and looks exactly as pictures in the photos. Would highly recommend.
