Coco Sands Beachside Cottages
Guest rating: 4.7 / 5
Overview
Coco Sands Beachside Cottages is a beachside cottage/apartment-style property in Florida with a strong public guest rating (4.7/5 from 776 reviews). Stays are oriented around independent, self-contained units rather than a full-service hotel format. The property is positioned as a convenient base for visiting Cocoa Beach and the Cocoa Beach Pier (both within about a 15-minute drive).
Units & In-room conveniences
Apartments include practical, longer-stay-friendly features such as a kitchen setup with microwave and oven/stove, plus air conditioning and heating. Each unit also includes a washer, and the source summary notes washers/dryers and refrigerators as unit “bonuses.” Free Wi-Fi supports streaming and day-to-day connectivity while staying in a cottage-style layout.
Amenities & recreation
Onsite recreation includes surfing/body boarding, aligning with the beachside setting. For cookouts, there is an outdoor grill, and at least some guests mention outdoor showers for rinsing off after the beach. The property is pet-friendly, which can be a differentiator for travelers bringing animals.
Location & getting around
The cottages sit near local bus stops including S Atlantic Ave/ S 16th St (SE Corner) (about 263 m away) and S Atlantic Ave/ 13th St (NE Corner) (about 408 m away). For air travel, the closest listed airport is Melbourne Orlando International Airport (about 21.4 km away), with larger Orlando-area airports much farther (roughly 70–82 km away). Reviews frequently emphasize the beach location and ease of getting to the shoreline.
Best for
This property best suits beach-focused travelers who want a cottage-style stay with the ability to cook and do laundry, supported by in-unit kitchen facilities and a washer/dryer setup. It’s also a strong pick for guests who value a notably clean, well-kept space and want quick beach access, plus onsite surfing/body boarding. Pet owners who want to bring an animal along may also find it a good fit due to the pet-friendly policy.
Travel tips
If you plan to use public transit, the S Atlantic Ave/ S 16th St bus stop is a short walk (about 263 m), with another stop at S Atlantic Ave/ 13th St (about 408 m). Cocoa Beach and the Cocoa Beach Pier are described as being within a 15-minute drive, so a car or rideshare can be useful for exploring beyond the immediate beachfront. Some units may not have an ocean view or direct sand access from the back of the cottage, so it’s worth confirming view/access expectations for your specific unit before arrival.
What guests say
Guests frequently highlight exceptionally high cleanliness standards across the cottages, including kitchens and common areas like parking. The beach location is repeatedly praised, with reviewers noting convenient access to the shoreline and beach-related rinse-off options such as outdoor showers. Several comments point to smooth, fast check-in and effective communication, along with comfortable interiors (including beds) and appealing decor. Negative feedback is limited but includes concerns that some units may not offer an ocean view or direct sand access from the cottage, and at least one guest was disappointed there is no pool.
