We just returned from our vacation to Cocoa Beach and had a great stay at the Hampton Inn. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a beautiful view of the beach and ocean from our balcony and watched the sunsets at night. The room was clean and comfortable including the bathroom. There was a fridge and microwave which we used to heat up dinner leftovers, saving money we would have spent on lunch the next day. We used the pool at night and found it to be clean and refreshing. The beach is nice, not too crowded, and an easy walk from the hotel. The breakfast area was spacious with the usual Hampton Inn fare. In the eveings families used the tables there to eat take-out or play cards. The lobby has 2 computers for guests to use to check email or find directions, check out local attractions, etc. There was hot water and coffee available 24/7 and in the afternoons there were cookies at the front desk.
Adjacent to the hotel is a Courtyard which has a full service restaurant. We ate there twice and were able to charge it to our room at the Hampton.
This hotel was ideal as a base for a trip to Kennedy Space Center. It also looks perfect for cruisers departing from Port Canaveral. The Sunset Waterfront Cafe and Bar on route 520 is a great place to have dinner while watching the sunset. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone staying at Cocoa Beach.
