“Great vacation” Nice place for vacation Close to beach , to everything around Loved the view of the ocean Only thing pool was not heated Will definitely come back in summer time

“Paradise” We were in heaven! This property is secluded and beyond peaceful. The house looks out on a small harbor and quiet beach with rare birds. The sunsets are extraordinary and we enjoyed many nights lounging on the porch, drinking wine, nibbling cheese or grilling (freshly caught!) fish and watching the sky turn colors before it got dark (and then we were faced with brilliant stars--we're New Yorkers so we don't get night skies like this!) The house is spacious, yet very cozy. The master bedroom has an amazing (huge!) shower and jacuzzi. The living room has big comfy couches, throw pillows and a working fireplace. One night we roasted marshmallows and played cards. A perfect stay-in evening. I feel I should also say--this house is stocked! The kitchen comes with everything you could want if you're a foodie (we grilled, made mixed drinks, made sushi one night, baked muffins, everything.) There is great cable including HBO and a video library, as well as games for kids if you should need. We loved to bike some days to a nearby beach (Madaket, about 15 minutes away) where there was a little more action than our private one (a taco restaurant called The Westender and spot with bigger surf where we went to boogie board.) The house has beach balls, paddle ball, and buckets for building sand castles. The bikes provided by owners are in great shape and there were also helmets available. Additionally, we loved that there were ocean kayaks, though we didn't have a chance to use them. Mostly, I think we all appreciated that we could completely unwind in this peaceful spot, read, sleep in, enjoy the beauty of the island, etc., but also get into town quickly if we wanted to go out for dinner or get drinks. Getting to Cisco is also a pretty quick trip--and we went twice to the brewery to get a drink after the beach and listen to live music. Overall, this was one of my best vacations in recent memory. You must try this part of the island and

“Great rental...NEARLY perfect.” My group of friends and I have a tradition to go to a beach house each summer. Finding something that has ample sleeping spaces, proximity to the beach, all within our price range can be a challenge. We were excited to find Forever Sunshine. We rented both the upper and lower units and were, overall very happy! Pros: - Location: you really can't beat the location. Maybe 25 steps to the beach. The beach that it's connected to also seems a bit further down from the super commercialized area, so it didn't feel overrun, even on Memorial Day. - Customer Service: We were also impressed by the customer service. They even brought us fresh cookies on the first day! We also had an incident with some locals who inflicted some damage on the property and they were very understanding and even let us know what was happening. - Space: Both units offered MORE than enough space for me and my friends. We only pulled out 2/4 couches each day and had room to spare. Cons: - Provided amenities: Hand soap, dishsoap, dishwashing soap, and laundry detergent were not provided. Paper goods, trash bags, and grilling stuff were provided, but minimal (or maybe they were leftover by the last folks staying?). This is all outlined in the rental agreement but I think it would be great if they had an option to add to your rental amount and have these things provided for you, since it seems like a waste to buy all of that for shorter stays. - House Design/Decor: One complaint was you can't get upstairs from the inside. I see how this is convenient when the units are rented separately but for us it was just a bit of a bother to always go outside to go upstairs/downstairs. We also couldn't get the TV upstairs to work--granted we didn't try very hard, ask about it, and didn't miss it but just a minor annoyance. Finally, the Tiki Hut outside seemed just a bit precarious, probably could have done with some screw tightening on the seats. The decor is also a bit cheesy, and one painting even depicted the Trail of Tears. Although the painting may have been appropriate for a gallery setting or educational purposes, in the context of the beach house with no educational component I found it rather exploitative, inappropriate, and offensive. Overall though my friends and I had a great time! Would definitely consider staying again. Thanks!

“GREAT PLACE TO STAY, CLAY COURTS AMAZING, POOLS AND HOT TUB PERFECT BIKING AND BEACH AWESOME.” We Love The Island it is a great place for families found an excellant church to worship at GRACE COMMUNITY. Biked everywhere grilled daily, loved the Clay courts for tennis. Beach was very close by, FACILITIES were decent and very clean. HOPE TO BACK NEXT YEAR.

“The cottage experience was relaxing and peaceful with a short wa” Enchanting cottage, very comfortable, enjoyed a little interaction with the owner's family and dog. Very sweet.

“Mrs” Perfect in every way. Condo was spotless and had everything we could need. Pool was right out the door. Couldn't see the beach from the Condo but a very short walk We had a small maintance problem. Made one phone call and it was fixed within the hour. We will be back

“It does not get any better than this in Cocoa Beach” There is check-box beneath this text field asking if I'd recommend this vacation rental to a friend. Absolutely not. No way. I'm not telling anybody, I'm keeping this place to myself. We were in town for the annual Cocoa Beach Art Show, plus a class reunion. Rooms were tight in CB, and many of our friends were staying at the local chain hotel/motels. I had first heard about Jackie and Dave's guest cottages a few months ago, but I didn't act. Much to my surprise, it popped up on TA and was available for the weekend. Best move we ever made. The Manatee Suite is over-the-top great. Bordering on kitsch, but not. Beach Kitsch. Brightly painted stucco, manatees, mermaids, sea turtles, and oh that beautiful spacious lanai, about as big as the entire suite. And a koi pond. All enclosed in a very private tropical garden that gives one little incentive to ever leave. There is a very comfy queen bed...a king would be nice, but would seriously cut into the navigation...and a kitchenette/hang-out area with a pull-out perfect for a couple of little ones or just to flop and watch tv (wall mounted flat-screen, extends to full view in either of the two rooms). No stove in the kitchenette, but a fridge and micro, as well as coffee maker and all the basic utensils and plates and drinkware. The Manatee Suite is in the back of the cottage, with the owner's residence and another suite out front. This is perfect, as it provides a buffer from the traffic noise of A1A. Jackie and Dave's little doggie will great you every time you walk by. The gate locks, adding another level of privacy to the beautiful lanai on a sunny day. ;) My wife and I grew up in Cocoa Beach, and return regularly. For some odd reason we'd never heard of the Done Roam Inn Guest Cottages. I hesitate to tell anyone else about it, because it is simply the best place in CB for for a casual vacation. Located one in from the corner of 3d St. North and AIA, it's within walking distance of virtually everything Downtown Cocoa Beach has to offer in terms of restaurants (breakfast, lunch, dinner), bars, coffee shops, you name it. We parked the car and rarely used it. Of course, the beach is right across the street. I mean, like right there. The cottage also comes with a couple beach chairs and extra beach towels. It felt like we were staying with some friends, certainly not in a cold hotel. I think our future plans will be to rent both suites and have a Thanksgiving on the beach. This is a homey and comfy as you'll find in Cocoa Beach...take it from a guy who grew up here and knows his way around this town. My only advice would be to NOT stay here at any of the times we're in town. I'll be sad if the Manatee Suite is not available for us. We showed a few pictures and invited a few friends over and got the same response from every one...jaw dropping, "why didn't we stay here?!" I may be shooting myself in the foot by posting this review, but Jackie and Dave deserve all the positive vibes I can send. In my travels I've found few places that have made me feel so welcome, so at home, than Done Roam Inn. When we checked out, Jackie and my wife shared a hug. I cannot think of one negative thing to post about the place.

“Wonderful Vacation Stay!” I was a bit nervous to go online and book a vacation home, worrying it would not be as pictured or described but I was extremely happy with the beach house and the wonderful service from Belloise Realty! We had an amazing family vacation and the house was so nice and clean and was just as pictured on the site. We will defiantly use Belloise again in the future as well as request this specif house when visiting Clearwater again!

“Great place” This is a fantastic house. Comfortable and quiet. Great location. Beautiful beach. Close to everything in town but without the noisy crowds of other oceanside villages. You are guaranteed a great time here.

“Classic cape cod experience” Beautiful property well located on the cape non commercial sector. Tastefully appointed overall fantastic.
