Unbeatable Location
Situated just a 3-minute stroll from the sun-kissed shores of Cocoa Beach, 211 Turtle Cottage places you in the heart of the action. Directly across the street, you’ll find popular dining spots like Jazzy’s Mainely Lobster and Pig & Whistle, while an array of boutique shops, bars, and surf rental outlets are just two blocks away.

For adventure seekers, the nearby Banana River offers endless opportunities for kayaking, dolphin and manatee sightings, or summer bioluminescent tours. Explore the Thousand Islands, accessible only by water, where you can kayak or boat around serene islands teeming with wildlife. Prefer to keep your feet on land? Bike to cruise through Cocoa Beach’s picturesque neighborhoods. And don’t miss the opportunity to catch a Kennedy Space Center rocket launch - either from your yard or the beach!

When you enter the driveway, turn right to park. Please pull as far forward on the rocks as possible and park to one side or the other, leaving as much room as possible for a second car beside you. Parking for 1 vehicle per unit is provided on premises.

We generate a unique access code for each guest. You will receive this code as a direct message to you.

You will have access to all areas inside your unit except for a small owner's closet in the hall where we store supplies, this is one unit in a duplex.

Amazing experience, perfect location & great hosts

The hosts were lovely and very helpful in recommending itinerary items before our stay. They were also prompt with anything we reached out about during our stay. The location is great, a 3 minute walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk to the dog friendly beach.

Wonderful property

Lovely place. Excellent location. Great quality, well equipped, tastefully decorated. We really enjoyed our short stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. Perfect for a small family. We loved the restaurant across the street, totally worth it. Feels like home away from home. We would definitely come again.
