River nearby (5 minute walk). 5BR 3BA. 2500sf zen-like luxury home with outdoor hot tub, fire pit, and game room. Sink into the vibes of this luxury home! Bedrooms themed on the Zen Elements of Earth, Metal, Water, Wood and Fire. Unbeatable central location. Kennedy Space Center 15min. Bioluminescence tours close. Orlando Airport 35min. Beaches 15min. Cruise Port 10min. Viera USSSA Sports Complex 20min.

Definitely a stand out and NOT your typical vacation rental. Zen House Cocoa was carefully curated to create a restorative and nurturing sanctuary for your large group/family. Think amazing location meets comfy meets fun. Zen isn`t just serious; Zen can be fun. Zen is a vibe and we have it going on here at Zen House Cocoa.

We have off street parking for 4 cars. There is a covered carport that will fit one full size and one small car. You can also park in front of the house, on the grass between the sidewalk and the street.

Bedrooms are super comfy with pillowtop lux mattresses. We have 4 kings, 1 queen, and 2 twins. Sleeps 12 legitimately (no bunk beds or sleeper sofas). We are not at summer camp. 3 full baths.

After a long day of exploring the space coast, settle in for a nice dinner with plenty of seating for 12. The large cooking/eating area is spacious yet designed for conversation. Wall tapestry sets the tone along with under-cabinet the smart light strips.

Pop over to the living room space which also seats every one and catch your favorite movie on the big screen. Stream whatever you want.

Perhaps a stroll down to the river. The river access is about a 5-10 minute walk. (please note: the pier is damaged from a hurricane, but you can still enjoy the water front park.)

The Zen continues outside. Step out onto the brand new paver patio and sit under the stars while taking in a Florida evening. For more relaxation, step into the hot tub with LED lights, take a seat by the fire on the coquina beach, or retreat to the “Turtle Shack” for a game of foosball, air hockey, or watch a movie on the big screen.

All of this zen is packed into a sweet space in an unbeatable location with direct access (no lights) to Rte 528 for heading to the beach (12-15 mins), airport (35 mins), cruise port (10 mins), and space center (20 mins). Or take a quick drive down Indian River Rd to the jewel of the Space Coast, Cocoa Village (5 min drive.

Publix and Walmart are both within 5 minutes for shopping and restaurants.

Stop looking and consider booking. We would be humbled and honored to host you!

    The interior of the home was very nice and clean. The rooms were all very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, living room sofas were comfortable. Only issue we encountered were the red ants in the backyard. Would have been nice to know since one of our travelers is highly allergic to them. A sting would have been a 911 call and rushed to the hospital. The host, Bob, was great and we had a wonderful time!

    Stayed for three days before getting on cruise with 10 total adults. Loved the room everyone had to relax and the ability to get together under one roof to make memories.

    This was a OK Home. It needs a lot of upgrading and cleaning. There was a leak in one of the bedrooms. Bedding doesn’t look like it’s been washed after every use. The couches are very well used. There is an over abundance of bugs and geckos. But the kitchen is very well maintained, and it has everything you will ever need in there. That was a plus to the house.

    The home overall was great however, the dishwasher did not work and the outside area needed help.

    The home is well stocked and everything labeled. Bedding and beds were terrific and room for all to eat together in kitchen/dining area. Location was nice good for beach and space center day. Hot tub and game shed used by our teen grandsons and enjoyed. One of the nicest homes we have stayed in and we rent all the time. Owners even left us snacks and some drinks.

    Needed a place with 5 bedrooms and multiple baths in a central Melbourne/Cocoa area. Easy to get to, great location for traveling to anything. Enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and the jacuzzi. Everything was in good condition on interior and Bob was very responsive with any questions. Turtle Room was not used bit probably a good fun spot for kids.

    This was by far the most thoughtful VRBO I have ever reserved. EVERYTHING was labeled, communication with the hosts was perfect, and the house was amazing. It has everything you need for a very large group, plenty of room for the kids and space for adults. The property was very clean, very convenient to all the activities you could want. You will not find a better place to stay with a large group and at a good value. We will 100% stay here again.

    Totally enjoyed this house and the location worked perfect for our family gathering. When you pull up the house doesn't look like much but when you open the door WOW! owners did an amazing job on the remodel. I even love the attention to detail with labeling all cabinets and drawers with what was in there, made it easy to find and put things back where they belong. It is next to US1 which is a busy road but you'd never know it once you are in the house. We had 20 family members total over for dinner, while only 7 of us stayed at the house we had room for everyone to enjoy each other and visit. Back fire-pit area was a plus with the kids along with the game room in the back shed. We will use this house again as it is perfect driving distance for all my family in Florida to make it for visits, next year we will do a longer stay! Beth
