The property was perfect for our group. Location was within walking distance to grocery stores and restaurants. There were a few cleaning issues - all of the frying pans in the cupboard were dirty with food stuck to them, the microwave was dirty and there was a full chicken nugget on the floor under the side table in the living room.

Very close to the beach and restaurants. Did find a few dead bugs on the first day so think the owners bug bombed shortly before checking in, otherwise the stay was great. Host was quick to respond and fix when the lock stopped working.

Very nice property, well equipped with most everything one might need for your stay including extras that most properties don't. Close walk to the beach with views to the Kennedy Space center, we were lucky enough to witness a launch during our stay which was unexpected.
