Top Rocket Garden Hotel Reviews

Radisson Resort at the Port

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and updated"

Dolphins Vacation Rental

10/10 Excellent

"Really cool place to stay. The deck faces the canal. Upstairs was an outdoor seating area. The main level had a living room with a small kitchen, bathroom, and queen-size bedroom. Parking was easy and the restaurant next to it was great. Rented a craig cat in the morning for 2 hours. This was a fun stay!"

Chase Hammock Lake House

10/10 Excellent

"We really appreciated the proximity of the property to the cruise port! Made for quick and easy access to the port. We didn't realize that one of the beds was actually a sofa bed in the living room, but that was really not much of an issue. (I may have simply overlooked or missed that when reading through the property description.) One negative: The coffee make was missing the 'filter bowl' that holds the coffee filter . . . But we worked around that easily."

Cape Crossing Resort & Marina

8/10 Good

"We booked with this property because it advertised a hot tub. Unfortunately, The hot tub was not functioning as it should. The rental company did give us a $25 credit. The condo was lovely and the convenience of the on site restaurant was appreciated. I would stay here again, but I would call ahead to be sure the hot tub was functioning."

Riverfront directly across from Cape Canaveral Launch Site

10/10 Excellent

"Great property right on the water. Spent all our time on the dock fishing. Watched dolphins and manatees swimming right next to the dock. Great sunrises. Watched 2 rocket launches from the sites directly in front of us. Property was clean and much larger than expected! All appliances and HVAC worked great. Highly recommend."

Wren Isle: Real Florida Riverfront, Rocket Launches & Dolphins at the Dock

10/10 Excellent

"Spent the weekend by the pool and on the dock. No need to go anywhere. Loved it."

NASA Space X Indian River Wildlife.

10/10 Excellent

"This was an excellent property. Comparable price to hotels in the area but a much quieter and private experience. Easy access to the nearby park to watch a launch and an inviting pool to relax in. Interior was clean and well appointed and a kitchen with all of the useful essentials. Great food options all within a minute or so drive and a few minutes drive into downtown Titusville where more options await. This would be a great spot for a family that want to do the space center or any number of wildlife refuge exploring opportunities. Solid 5 stars from me!"

Private Backyard Oasis: Cocoa Family Home!

10/10 Excellent

"The house was nice, clean, well stocked with essentials (spices, pots/pans, dishes, etc.). The pool was smaller than we expected (the pictures make it look bigger), but was fine & clean. There are cameras around the pool equipment, which is understandable, but we found the cameras on the pool deck itself to be a little unsettling."

Riverfront Titusville Home w/ Pool + Pickleball!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful vacation. The property was excellent. The accommodations worked out great for large family. Hope to return next year."
