Charming Cottage

Super charming cottage with lovely view of river. Cottage was set up perfect for 2 people. Lovely decor and extremely comfortable. We spent the evenings sitting on dock and enjoying wildlife on river. It was great location for watching a launch.

The Perfect Getaway

Cocoa, FL and the Hummingbird Cottage is the perfect getaway for my husband and me! My husband enjoyed fishing at the dock, while I enjoyed the sunshine! The cottage is the perfect size for the two of us, and the kitchen was great for breakfast each morning, as well as storing and heating leftovers from dinner in town each night. Cocoa is a short drive to beaches, breweries, and only an hour from Orlando! The hosts are attentive and easy to communicate with. My husband and I plan to continue to visit when we can!

Lovely cottage

My husband and I stayed for three weeks here and enjoyed every bit of our time. We loved having access to the dock, visiting Cocoa Village, and seeing some of the rocket launches from Port Canaveral and Kennedy Space Center. We would definitely stay there again if our travels bring us that direction. Lisa and Mark are wonderful hosts. They thought of everything to make us feel at home!

Exactly as Advertised!

Super, super clean. The absolute best part though is the location. I'm a big walker and the gorgeous morning walks along the miles of waterfront homes were were so peaceful. Walking into town was short and restaurants plentiful. The house is just like the pictures and the bed, comfy. You can eat in if you want too with nice cookware. Favorite parts-sitting on the front porch drinking morning coffee, walking everywhere, watching the bay from the porch or sitting on the pier being lazy, the craftsman style interior finishes where everything is tasteful and elegantly done, Lisa next door answered instantly any questions and you can tell she adores her place...I love it!

The adventure we needed.

We had such an amazing time at the Hummingbird Cottage. The private dock was absolutely beautiful, we couldn't get over all of the wildlife we encountered. We are from the desert so we don't experience things like this. So many sea creatures and we even saw a Manatee who swam by us almost each time we went down. He would roll on his side as he passed the dock to say "Hi". Oh and there were the cutest little armadillos and squirrels that hung out in the garden by the cottage. The cottage was the cleanest VRBO that I've ever stayed it. Immediately upon walking in it was nice and cool and smelled so clean and fresh. The place was spotless and I know this will sound weird but the sheets smelled sooo good, we slept so well! The attention to detail with the decorating was on point and all the little luxuries throughout shined! Thank you Lisa and Mark, we truly loved your cottage. We will most defiantly book again.

Perfect location- better than staying on the beach

We've visited the Space Coast many times over the years, often staying in beachfront hotels. This was by far our favorite place to stay. So relaxing, clean, and beautiful! It was an easy and safe walk from the cottage into Cocoa Village at night for dinner and to catch a play at the Cocoa Village Playhouse. Early morning coffee on the front porch while watching the sun rise over the river across the street. Long bike ride up Indian River Drive and back. (We had brought our own bikes but I the property has bikes you can use.) Sitting on the dock at sunset with a glass of wine while watching the dolphins come in. Long bike ride the next day in the other direction. Everything is super clean and the kitchen is well stocked. Lots of nearby restaurants. Grocery store a short drive away. The only negative, just a minor complaint, is that it's not 100% quiet. Depending on the wind direction, we could hear traffic from the causeway, a train rumbling through town, and Friday night speeders on Indian River Road. But that was more than offset by the quaint peacefulness. We will return for sure!

Great cottage

The cottage was exactly as described in proximity to Cocoa Village, etc., felt safe, was very clean and well decorated. Much attention was paid to detail, and the coffee pot worked well. The bathroom was high-end and spacious, and the office area was neat. Highly recommend.

Perfect Couple Getaway!

The cottage was perfect, cozy and yet spacious. The private dock in the evening was wonderful to sit with a glass of wine and enjoy the evening breeze. The cottage was close to delicious cafes for breakfast, tasty lunches and relaxing dinner spots. Would definitely stay again.

A quaint place in Cocoa, FL

This is a cozy, retro kind of place located in a secluded neighborhood next to the Indian River in Cocoa. The home has been carefully restored with some modern conveniences but still retaining its 1920’s character. It is a separate cabin not connected to another structure so it was very quiet and restful.

Second visit great as the first

We love this cottage. This is the second year we've taken a weekend trip here from our home a few hours away. It's the perfect size, very clean and well kept, and has everything we needed. The best part is the location: walk to the village for an evening performance at the Cocoa Village Playhouse, walk to restaurants, hop on bikes for a scenic ride right out the front door. We enjoyed a glass of wine on the dock at sunset while watching the dolphins jump. We even saw a SpaceX launch!

Amazing place to stay!

The property is clean and cute and super comfy. Plenty of shopping/groceries close by. Bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was amazing. Access to a private dock was super handy and we used it quite a bit. 15 minutes to the beaches. Lots of great places to eat within walking distance. My wife and i will absolutely be booking here in the future.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

Gorgeous little cottage, perfect for two. Easy walk to downtown Cocoa Village for coffee and shops. We sat on the dock to watch a Falcon 9 launch. Sorry we missed the dolphins but other than that it couldn't have been more perfect! We definitely recommend Milpa Tacos y Tortillas (just point yourself toward Cocoa Village and follow the road until it becomes Brevard), and Cafe de Havana for morning coffee. We tried Cafe Margaux (make a reservation) and it was decent - great service and ambiance, food was meh and went to French Delights bakery one morning when Cafe de Havana and Ossorio were closed. French Delights was a little fussy; the coffee was so-so and the pastries looked great (I am celiac so we weren't able to try them)...the owner was a little intense. NASA/Kennedy Space Center is only about a 20-30 minute drive and we enjoyed a full day there. Another afternoon, we drove to Cocoa Beach and found a state park access that was lovely and not too crowded. Absolutely perfect weekend in this adorable cottage! Thank you.

SIX STARS

I wish I could give Hummingbird Cottage Six Stars. The cutest cottage with so many special touches. The location across from the river that we could see from many rooms and a great view from the screened porch. We enjoyed several hours sitting on the dock. Dolphins visited us in the distance. I stomped my feet on the dock and they swam to the dock. What a treat. Loved the shower room it was great. The cute kitchen had everything we needed and the vintage touches throughout the cottage were adorable from the enamel 1950’s kitchen table to the stained glass window in the bath. I enjoyed the small den and the ladies writing desk that looked out to the river. We had breakfast and dinner on the screened porch again with a view of the river. The bed was so comfortable and we enjoyed the ceiling fan. There were even beautiful plush robes waiting in the bathroom. Our only regret we should have stayed longer. We will remedy that in the future with a longer stay. Finally being able to walk to Cocoa Village easily and enjoy the restaurant's, shops and the park was ideal for us to get in our exercise and stay out of the car which was securely parked in our own driveway. We will be back soon.
