Cocoa Beach-where to stay?

[DLVisitor]

We are hoping to tag on 2 or so days at Cocoa Beach to see Nasa and swim in the ocean before we go to WDW. Any suggestions on where to stay?

Thanks.

I can't really help you on where *to* stay, but there have been some threads recently about some BAD hotels in that area in the Orlando Hotels and Attractions Forum that you may be interested in. Here is a link to one of them...

A lot of people on the Cruise Board stay at the Raddisson at Cape Canaveral before thier cruise.

Sorry about being off-topic, but if you're staying in Cocoa Beach I can recommend a nice little Greek-American restaurant called Zachary's. It's on the West side of A1A just south of where A1A meets the Beeline. It's across from the McDonalds and just south of a mini-golf place.

It's not fancy. We stop there for gyros whenever we're in the neighborhood.

My wife and I went over to Cocoa Beach yesterday for a day trip. We did not spend the night but we did see a couple of nice looking hotels that we might try sometime. There was a Courtyard by Marriott that looked fairly new within walking distance to the beach. There was also a Doubletree that appeared to be right on the beach. Hope this helps.

I'd recommend the Holiday Inn where my wife and I stayed for our honeymoon. They had one bedroom units directly on the beach, you could throw something and hit the ocean. Closest I've ever been to the beach, and a nice pool. The Howard Johnson's was also nice and right on the beach.

Don't forget to visit Ron Jon's.

We stayed in a nice Hampton Inn two years ago.

We have always stayed at the Radisson Resort at the Port. We have even left home a few days early to make a side trip to stay there a couple of nights. You won't be disappointed:cool:

I was at Cocoa Beach in June of this year!

DO NOT DO NOT GO TO HOLIDAY INN BEACHFRONT RESORT..

Dirty, moldy,only 1 building is actually oceanfront..the rest is parking lot!

We stayed at Ocean Landings Resort on the beach in September and it was very good. They have ocean front rooms and 1 and 2 bed suites. Two pools and tennis courts.

Visit their website for further info www.oceanlandings.com

The restaurant on site Gregorys Steak and Seafood was excellent although a little expensive.

THanks everyone for the advice. I've been calling hotels & places for info. Once you get used to t/sing, you REALLY notice the per night cost of hotels!
