Outstanding Property

One of the most well appointed properties we have ever rented. They pretty much thought of everything. The house and pool are lovely and provided my family with much enjoyment. This is an Evolve property. Whenever we are booking through VRBO we give preference to their listings as they are always top notch. In the unlikely event that you have an issue they handle it promptly and efficiently. Book this property if available - you won’t regret it.

Great Escape from the Midwest

The Jellyfish House fit the needs of my family and was as described. Cooking supplies and utensils, dishware, silverware and glassware in the kitchen were abundant. Even though we brought a few items from my kitchen, we really didn’t need to use these. Cleaning supplies, bedding, linen and towels were plentiful. We were able to host family and friends at the house a few times and comfortably cook meals which definitely made the property very much a home away from home. The pool, landscape and bug spray were maintained as scheduled. Fenced in back yard provided enough privacy and space for our 6 year old pup to explore. Sabrina, the property manager, was quick to respond to inquiries. Only inquiry was about the recycle bin, which we were unable to locate. Must’ve gone missing since the last Hurricane/storm. Grocery stores, restaurants, gas stations, Space Coast attractions, Kennedy Space Center, NASA launchpad and cruise ship ports were nearby since it’s off of N Atlantic/A1A. It’s location made for close (but not too close) distance from family and friends in Merritt Island and surrounding area. Overall, it was a pleasant visit to warmer weather coming from Wisconsin. A wonderful alternative to staying at a hotel. Wish we could’ve stayed longer… until next time!

Wonderful cottage!

Awesome cottage in an excellent location! Just a couple of blocks to the beach with the Mobimat for our two children in wheelchairs... Excellent! The house had EVERYTHING you would need for a great stay (beach supplies, pool toys, seasonings in the well stocked kitchen, etc). We even got to see a rocket launch on our last night! The waves were great for surfing and the weather was perfect. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will book the Jellyfish Cottage again!

Great Getaway

Our trip to Cocoa Beach was great. The house was exactly as described. Very clean and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed our time out by the pool. Also used the grill. Only thing that would be a plus is if the cabana had a bathroom. Great for a bedroom but inconvenient to have to go into the house at night to use the bathroom. Overall great house.

Pickleball Stay

The house was not what was portrayed in the Pictures. We expected a newly renovated house like the one in the pics and description. The shower had black mold all the way around the entire perimeter. All the outside metal furniture was rusted and would stain you clothes if you sat on it. The beach chairs had so much rust it would stain your clothes and you could hardly open them. The textured pool deck was cover in algae and mold. The fire pit was rusted out and leaked gas and we couldn't use it the entire time we were there because it wouldn't stay lit and you could just smell the gas. The big grill looked fine until you opened it and the inside was rusted out and dirty. When we mentioned this to the manager she said it's Florida and things get moldy and rusty and because it's rented all the time they don't have time to fix things. This house should not have been rented in this condition. We waited seven months to travel to Florida and stay in what was decribed as a newly renovated home for a month. We were shammed with no where to go after waiting months. They told us Evolve didn't have any other places for us and VRBO said put it in your review.... First time we've felt this was about renting from VRBO....

Jellyfish Cottage Was a Delight

I have been a VRBO customer for several years and this property was far and away the nicest so far. I would go back to the Jellyfish Cottage anytime. Michelle, the host and owner, was very helpful and flexible and immediately responsive even when she herself was on vacation in Puerto Rico. I felt like we were old friends. The property and owner are more than 5 stars!

Nice stay!

The owners were terrific. Very responsive. The unit was described as having three bedrooms which was technically correct. However, one of the bedrooms was located in the cabana - no bathroom. So we had to go outside to the main building. It worked OK for us but a little bit of a surprise when we first got there.

Jellyfish Cottage is a Real Gem!

We've been renting from Home-Away for over 10 years and this rental has been one of our favorites so far! All the comforts of home and them some. Centrally located to everything. A short walk to a quiet beach and a beautiful private outdoor pool to enjoy as well. Local contact Michelle was available to answer any and all questions we had during our stay which was a super helpful touch! We would definitely book this property again!

We LOVED our stay at the Jellyfish cottage. The house is really well furnished—with just about anything you’d need. The owner is easy to contact should you have any issues—-which we did not have. The pool was cold but the owner is putting a heater in this year. We would absolutely stay here again.

AWESOME place and Host

This is an absolute must stay if you are coming to the area. Fantastic options, perfect location to everything and couldn’t have any better options. All of the little extras that were unexpected were greatly appreciated - bug spray, sunscreens, assorted toiletries, etc. were as good as any 5-star resort! The kitchen is fully stocked with spices so unless you spice out of the ordinary (we do) you will be good to go. There are an assortment of condiments and alcohols that were left from previous vacationers was appreciated and saved us the cost of buying the staples. We loved the fact that there was a kettle to heat water because we are coffee snobs (we did bring our own French press to make coffee) and will not use a coffee pot or a keurig (but they have them!!). Normal vacationers will literally need to bring NOTHING. We skimmed the pool each day of leaves and treated this like we would our own house - we appreciated their efforts to make this a home away from home. We don’t have any little ones (children) but they’ve thought of them too! There is a high chair and a stroller and kids toys, games, and puzzles in the house and in the shed with the rest of the pool toys. We will absolutely stay here again and we will recommend all of our friends do the same. Thanks so much to Michelle and Nate for the use of their beautiful beach home!!!

Clean, comfortable, close to beach.

We recently stayed at this rental house for a week. The house was very clean and fully stocked with all amenities imaginable. Michelle was very responsive to our needs and questions. The cable did not work due to a thunder storm right before our stay that knocked out the box, and the pool was cool due to a cold snap the week prior. Overall however, we did enjoy our stay at the Jellyfish!

Charming little cottage

We had a lovely time here in this home. Our twin toddlers loved the jellyfish theme and we loved the clean, inviting atmosphere. Our stay was chilly (January), which meant that we had a few extra visitors indoors (but hey, it's FL) and the owners responded quickly. We also didn't get to use all the fun outdoor items - pool, grill, bikes, firepit, etc. - because the wind and cold made it unsafe. Had some TV issues and would love some additional window coverings on the first floor bedroom, but all in all, a great stay.
