Property Description
Enjoy the ultimate privacy and paradise on Merritt Island! Our spacious mission style home sits on a four acre peninsula on the Banana River. You can spend the day relaxing by the pool, having drinks by our outdoor bar, fishing or water fowl hunting. You can go kayaking and wind surfing on the river where you’re bound to see wild dolphins or manatees. We are just minutes from Cocoa Beach, Cape Canaveral, Kennedy Space Center and we are less than an hour away from Disney World.
We raised our five children on what we and our family and friends like to call it the “The Sosa Resort”.
Over the years we have done lots fishing, water skiing, knee boarding, wake boarding or just enjoyed watching the dolphin and manatee. In the cooler months we love to witness the bioluminescence which is a natural phenomenon of glowing blue waters caused by plankton. By just swirling your hand, a stroke of your paddle or just the darting trails of swimming fish, the water lights up like an electric light water show. The amazing images of perfectly lit dolphin zooming by, cause the water to spark up in glowing blue colors, just like in the movie Life of Pi.
Through the years we have enjoyed unforgettable birds-eye views, of beautiful and colorful sunsets! With shades of orange, red, purple and yes even pink!
We hope that you will also make happy memories and enjoy all of this and more!About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 12:00 PM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.Small children must know how to swim..About checkIn:Check in after 4:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.Smoking is allowed outside.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 21.About events:No events allowed.

Perfect family vacation!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at Dania's beautiful family vacation rental in Merritt Island and it exceeded all our expectations! The location was perfect. We enjoyed the sunset and saw dolphins everyday while there. The house itself was spacious and comfortably accommodated our family of 21 with plenty of bedrooms and shared spaces for everyone to relax. Dania was exceptionally welcoming and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

A perfect family paradise!
We had to request a last minute booking and the host, Dania, graciously accepted when she learned of the unforeseen circumstances. Check in was very easy and the house was all ready for us upon arrival. The kids were very excited about the pool floats and a bin of legos waiting for them. A lovely welcome basket was so thoughtful as was information about restaurants and things to do in the area. The house is absolutely beautiful and we enjoyed looking at all of the art. There are so many unique places to sit and relax, read, play games. The kitchen is amazing and had everything needed. We enjoyed the Breville espresso machine! The outdoors is private and peaceful. The kids loved seeing a dolphin swim right along the shoreline in the backyard. The home gym was great and we enjoyed the hot tub and sauna. The kids had fun with karaoke and the game room, especially skeeball! It’s obvious this is a well-loved and cared for family home and we loved spending time there and making memories. Dania was a wonderful host. We highly recommend this beautiful place!
