The towns and cities that make up both the Space and the Treasure Coast deserve to have their stories told, especially as you may discover that your favorite Happy Palm Stays escape can be found in many of them, including Melbourne Beach. Offering a rich history, Melbourne Beach, in particular, has a history that dates back to pre-Columbian times, but it is its beach history that you may be most interested in, especially as this town is Brevard County’s oldest beach community, dating back to the late 1800s. Today, we want to tell the story of Melbourne Beach, introducing you to its charms, as we also tell the tale of a vacation experience spent in comfort and luxury when you choose our Melbourne Beach vacation rentals to make your own.
Naturally Beautiful
The scenery, the landscape, and the beaches of Melbourne Beach are what brought you here, and their beauty is what will keep you wanting to play outside as much as possible, so it’s only natural that we recommend a visit to Indian River Lagoon Preserve State Park. The Indian River Lagoon Loop is a short trail, just over half a mile in length, but is so worth exploring. Keeping your eyes peeled for graceful herons standing at the water’s edge, for sea turtles sunning themselves on logs, and in the winter months especially, a large group of manatees, better known as an aggregation. The warm waters in the winter make the playful creatures feel at home, and your tour of the park may allow you to see them swimming and lounging in the waters of the Indian River.
A Blend of Luxury and Comfort
Our Happy Palm Stays Properties in Melbourne Beach are a mixture of condos and standalone homes, but the majority are homes, making these spaces perfect for larger families or friend groups. The condos, however, are equally wonderful, offering pretty much all of the same amenities, just on a more compact scale. Water views are popular in both our condos and our homes, and although you won’t find a private pool in the backyard of your cozy condo, you will find a resort-style pool that will bring you joy on those days you don’t want to play in the surf, but you still want to cool down with a nice relaxing swim. Some condos may offer fitness centers, others may offer sports courts, and still others may offer all of the above; there are no sacrifices needed to be made, simply because you chose a condo over a home.
Welcome Home
Our standalone homes in Melbourne Beach are spacious escapes offering as few as 4 bedrooms and as many as 7, so if you are planning a destination wedding, a bachelorette weekend, or a family reunion with 18 of your favorite family members, these homes are the ones you should look at. Step inside for the first time and fall in love with all the treasures awaiting inside, including gourmet kitchens, state-of-the-art televisions, game rooms, and theater rooms furnished with leather recliners that are much more comfortable than any real theater seat would be. Electric fireplaces, private seating areas in luxurious bedrooms, and ocean views that will take up permanent residence in your heart are more wonderful amenities that will make your stay with us memorable. Travelers with babies will appreciate highchairs and pack n’ plays, and every guest will thrill to discover a closet filled with beach gear, including chairs, umbrellas, wagons, and coolers.
Go Outside and Play
The amenities don’t end at the front door of your Melbourne Beach retreat; they continue out into garages, where you may find more games to play and quite possibly a collection of beach cruisers that are perfect for riding around town. The backyard, however, will be your own private oasis, and although each property is different, coming with its own set of unique amenities, often you will find a private pool surrounded by lounge chairs, some with basketball hoops, some without, barbecue grills and dining tables ensuring that you can enjoy an al fresco meal as the sun sets over the water, and the occasional putting green. Golf is big in Florida, with weather this nice, how could it not be, and the golfer in your family will enjoy a little downtime practicing when not actually on the Spessard Holland Golf Course, our local course. Firepits and kayaks are more treasures you may find awaiting you in the yards of our Melbourne Beach properties, enabling visitors to enjoy an action-packed vacation they have always dreamed of.
