BEST Experience EVER with Vacation Rentals!!!
Review Submitted: September 7, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2009
The owners of this property really "get it"! First of all, everything was in working order (not the case in just about every other place we've stayed!). The place was absolutely spotless - and no bugs! We also appreciated the retro-modern "I Dream of Jeannie" decor! (I'm sooooo tired of pink and teal.... hello???) About customer service - we can't say enough about the owners! They are so caring and generous! This was so refreshing, and we really appreciated it! We will not stay anywhere else when we go back to Cape Canaveral! Our friends from Jacksonville came down to visit, and they were very impressed, as well as our friends who own a unit in Canaveral Sands, right next door to the Mansions. We'd definitely recommend this property to our friends. Our favorite restaurant is Grills (great seafood at a reasonable price). Our tradition is to go to Durangos on the first night for steaks and 2 fer 1 margaritas! We also love Florida's Seafood Restaurant and the Italian Garden. We miss Frankie's Wings and Things that used to be by the pier - but we found it in Melbourne (a little drive - but worth it!). There is a lot to do, but we were there in Aug., so it was pretty hot! Loved just hanging out at the beach! Running every morning on the beach was great! Walking to the pier was fun, too! Saw a lot of sea turtles! We did go kayaking on the Banana River, which was really cool (not temperature-wise - lol)! Some of us went to Kennedy Space Center, and some went to Melbourne to the "On the Edge" rock-climbing gym. Of course, us ladies went to the mall on Merritt Island (Dillards had great deals!). You have to check out Bealls, too! Love that - it's like TJ Maxx/Marshalls! The bargains are awesome! The only negative thing (which is not the owners' fault) is that the internet was very slow and unreliable. Oh well! We can't wait for next year!!!
