Very impressed with this Vrbo rental house. To start off the location of this rental is amazing and is only 10 minutes from the water, and the rental is also 3 minutes from downtown and is very accessible for walking. Now for the actual rental. It was amazing. 100/10 the owner has everything you could ever ask for, here for you! a beach buggy, that is great on any terrain, that holds plenty of items. As well as multiple boogie boards, along with multiple beach chairs and multiple bottles of sunscreen and aloe for your use. Toiletries and soap is also supplied for you here. You can save hundreds of dollars by booking this rental on money that could have been spent on chairs and boogie boards and a wagon. Amazing experience for group sizes of 1 or 2.

Jackie is such a friendly and accommodating host. All the extra items avaliable for whatever outing you plan - a rolling cart, beach umbrellas, boogie boards and lawn chairs for the beach, and kayaks, carriers, and coolers for paddling. Bikes to ride about town, beach towels to dry off. No detail was overlooked. Such a nice little place with proximity to all the fun. Loved our time there again this year. Thank you Jackie!

We loved our stay at the Dolphin Den! It was very close to walk to the beach and into town and had everything we needed. Jacki was super helpful and guided us on how to experience all the fantastic things to see and do in town during our stay. Highly recommend and will def stay again on a future trip to Cocoa Beach!

One block to the river to kayak among dolphins and manatees - three block to the ocean for sand, sun, and surf. Nice private cottage tucked away on a side street - Jacki was an excellent host, so helpful, and had all the little extras that make for a great stay.
