Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 01 Apr 2011 rated 4 out of 10.

The hotel inside was lovely, desk staff not very friendly and it seemed good for business meetings. The trash in front of the hotel which was there when we arrived and when we left was very unattractive.

Positives: It had a nice gift shop.

Negatives: The balcony overlooked a drainage ditch and the parking lot. There was trash all around the entrance. ex: empty wine bottle, pages from a newspaper.

We received a king size smoking bedroom for a family of four non-smokers. The room smelled really bad and we would not have fit in a king size bed all together. The staff was quick to help. They had no vacancies to move us to a better room, however, they offered to bring in an ionizer immediately and also brought to our room a roll away bed before we even got to the room after the check in desk.

Positives: The staff was courteous and quick to help.

Negatives: We received a smoking room (we are non smokers).

Positives: The front desk was very friendly.

Negatives: Emailed re: smoke free room and never got an answer.

It is perfectly located facing the beach. The unbelievable room we got was on the top floor with an amazing view on the beach, the marina, the International Swimming Hall of Fame. We got a junior suite which allowed us to fit our young son in the sofa bed. The staff treated us like any other customer.

Positives: The view from the room (top floor), equipment of the room.

Negatives: Parking not free for customers, small pool.

It was labeled as a Double Tree however other than the dining area, meeting rooms and lobby it felt like a motel 8.

Positives: The restaurant was very good.

Negatives: The rooms needed attention. Lots of patched holes and a few water spots.

The cocoa beach doubletree ocean front hotel is a relaxing, clean hotel in a beautiful ocean front location. The pool area is fabulous, the view is fantastic, and the staff is friendly and responsive. I would recommend this hotel to families, couples, and business travelers. I can't wait to go back!

Positives: Doubletree gave us a two double bed room.

Negatives: Parking lot was not well lit.

If you are looking for a family friendly hotel, close to the beach, this one was good. We visited during the off season. The staff was pleasant, our room was clean, the pool was wonderful and we enjoyed the beach. It was close to many activities in cocoa and also close to a number of restaurants. The hotel restaurant serves a very well rounded breakfast buffet that we enjoyed one morning.

Positives: Very well placed in cocoa beach. Terrific place for a weekend beach getaway.

Negatives: Some updating needs to occur, or there is a mold problem in some hallways. There was an odor that did not seem to go away.

My "non-smoking" room reeked of smoke and when I said something I was told I got the room I paid for. Would never stay there again. Other amenities were fine though.

Positives: On the Beach.

Negatives: The supposed Non-Smoking room smelled of smoke the whole time.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 01 Sep 2007 rated 8 out of 10.

Certainly not a five star, but it fulfilled our needs.

Positives: Curious staff, nice restaurant and conveniences.

Negatives: Did not like the so-called Ocean View and housekeeping was marginal.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 27 Aug 2007 rated 8 out of 10.

A pleasant stay. Comfortable but not exactly outstanding. Although all the rooms have ocean views, most of them have better views of other hotels and condos. We had to turn off our AC to sit on the balcony because of the noise and heat coming from the unit. Nice size room for a family, but no place to hang swimsuits after a swim in the ocean or very small pool. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, but might also check out other hotels in the area.

Positives: Very comfortable hotel.

Negatives: A few cosmetic problems-some carpet could be re-stretched, sloppy paint jobs, etc. Loud air conditioner (cannot sit on balcony without turning off).

It was a very beautiful hotel on the beach; the staff was courteous and polite. Our room was beautiful and clean and the beds were very comfortable!

Positives: The cookies at check in were awesome!

Negatives: The lady who checked us in was not familiar with area and things to do or eat.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 30 Jul 2007 rated 7 out of 10.

The hotel overall was great. I didn't like the fact that we had to sleep 3 to a bed and 1 on a roll away.

Positives: It was convenient and had all of my desired amenities.

Negatives: They were unable to accommodate our need for 2 double beds.
