The Blue Fin Bungalow- Coastal Comfort & Beauty. 1 Block to the Beach -Sleeps 10
About this house rental
Nestled in Indian Harbour Beach, this attractive house for $245 per night is a great choice for your next break. Come to experience the Space Coast at The Blue Fin Bungalow! A beautiful and unique home just caddy-corner from the beach with all the comforts of home. Open living and dining areas to spend time with family and friends, comfortable seating on the back porch to feel the beach breezes and a large yard to play games. Enjoy the wine and coffee bar complete with a mini fridge to keep your beverages cold, a Keurig coffee maker and microwave. Cook meals in the new kitchen. We have stocked it with baking and cooking utensils, pots, pans, bakeware and more. Watch cable on any one of the four smart televisions or surf the internet on the wifi. We also have a nice selection of board games and beach gear for you such as beach blankets, beach chairs, beach toys, and towels for your beach days and make the most of your stay. Traveling with children? Please let me know. I have toys to keep them busy and baby items such as a pack and play a washtub and a jogging stroller. I have done my best to stock The Blue Fin Bungalow with any and everything you would need in your home away from home so that everyone can enjoy the home. Four comfortable bedrooms await you at the Blue Fin Bungalow including two private suites with king-sized beds each, another private suite with a queen sized bed and a bunk room featuring two twin beds and a full sized bed. Updated bathrooms offer new vanities and plenty of places for your toiletries. Grab your favorite drink and take the three -minute walk to the beach to watch spectacular sunrises and beautiful sunsets on the Atlantic ocean as well as rocket and space shuttle launches! Mosey back to rinse off in the outdoor shower and enjoy a game of foosball, or just relax a watch a movie on the big screen. It doesn’t get much better than this. Indian Harbour Beach is a coastal community where you will find beautiful uncrowded sandy beaches, friendly people and lots to do. Minutes away from water sports, boating and fishing on the Indian and Banana Rivers and world-class surfing certain times of the year just our front of the house. Get to the parks, Port Canaveral and The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in just one hour from our private retreat. Visit the specialty shops in the nearby towns of Viera and Melbourne. Try some of the local cuisine at some of our favorite restaurants, Goombays, DaKine Diegos, Squid Lips, or Too Cool Cafe. Or, if you are feeling frisky and are old enough to drink alcohol, Lous Blues or The Key West Bar can be fun and are all super close by. Explore all that Downtown Eau Gallie Arts District has to offer at the Foosaner Art Museum or try some of the best and most unique beer at the Intercoastal Brewery. It is recommended that you have a car to get around since Florida is quite spread out, but there is public transport available with the bus system and UBER is also a safe and popular way to get around. I look forward to hosting your stay!

My family and I really enjoyed that stay. The house was well kept and the owners were great to work with.

Our family loved our stay at the Blue Fin Bungalow. It was ideal for our large family; we had plenty of space and beds. The owner, Tesi, was great about bringing over board games, a baby stroller, and beach toys. We also had a 3-in-1 game table. The home is beautifully decorated in beach themes which added to the coziness of it.
The best part of our stay was the incredible communication and concern of Tesi. Through no fault of hers, we had an electrical outage which impacted the neighborhood for hours. Tesi was wonderful throughout the experience, including checking on us in person and lending us flashlights. She made things right about a situation that had been out of her control. In addition, she gave us numerous tips about area activities and dining. How blessed we were to have a vacation home owner who treated her guests like family!
We definitely have plans to return to the Blue Fin. It is a very short walk to the beach & was truly a vacation. Thank you, Tesi & family.

The Blue Fin bungalow was perfect for our Spring Break getaway to visit Florida grandparents. The many beach items, close proximity to the beach, and quiet neighborhood were a wonderful addition to a lovely home that was well-suited for our needs. Impromptu and informal family gatherings were easily managed in the open kitchen and living area. We would definitely consider staying at this home again.

Great host!
Older home with updates, open plan, well located in low key beach area, relaxing. Screened porch a bonus (but could use some TLC). Nice park nearby, can view post rocket launches from the driveway!

Our family of 6 plus one infant enjoyed our 8 day stay at this home. We walked to the beach every morning to watch the sunrise and look for seashells. We looked for crabs in the evenings. We enjoyed many activities in Melbourne, Port Canaveral, and Vero Beach. The grocery store was only 5 minutes away. Thus, making it very convenient to stock up the kitchen. Our family looks forward to returning next winter.

We were only here for a short time due to an unexpected emergency back home, but we enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect - near lots of shops, restaurants and the beach. It also is not too far off I-95, which was important to us. The yard was perfect for our dog. House was well kept and had plenty of dishes, pots/pans, etc. Tessi was very responsive, which was much appreciated. We hope to be back for longer next time.

We enjoyed our stay at this location. You could easily walk to beach, which we did, but we drove if we were carrying along chairs, umbrella, etc. Lots of great places to eat. We tried several of the ones that they suggested and we weren't disappointed.

I generally overlook a few negatives in a property in favor of the bigger picture, but in the case of this house, I feel I need to disclose the whole story. My family and I stayed here for 5 days including a 4 month old baby. The host asked that we please treat her house as if it was her own and I wholeheartedly agreed. However, I'm sure that at her house, the sheets are not threadbare, the pillows aren't flat, and the towels aren't fit to be rags to wash the car. The kitchen was also poorly stocked, skillets that should have been thrown in the trash a long time ago, dull knives, only 4 small coffee mugs for 6 adults, etc. Since we were traveling with a baby we had to do laundry every evening, this was difficult because there was no laundry basket. On the positive side, the house was close to the beach but be aware that there is no sidewalk on the house side of the main road. We were close to shopping and restaurants and to Orlando attractions. The Kennedy Space Center is only 45 minutes away. My entire party agreed that this house could be perfect if the host would get the small things right.

Birthday getaway
The home owner was great ! She worked with us on a last minute late checkout, however there was a miscommunication between home owner and housekeeping. She showed up at her normal time and we ended up rushing to gather our things and wait outside for our scheduled Ubers.
The house is quite cute.and comfortable. Plenty of amenities for our 2 night stay.
I do feel the information on location was a bit misleading. The beach is definitely more than a few minute walk as well as the few nearby restaurants.
Overall, the house is great! Just wish the description of location was more accurate!

Wonderful family getaway
We really enjoyed the Blue Fin Cottage it was more than a cottage. It was my 70th birthday. Most of our family was there. We we’re excited about all the amenities the house had. However, I must say a few of the frying pans probably should be thrown away and the spice cabinet needs an overhaul. Our beds were comfortable, bedrooms were updated, internet was more than sufficient for our needs , the ocean play things and coolers were definitely appreciated. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Extended family and friends stayed here with us for our son's wedding. We have stayed in a lot of vacation rental homes and used to be hosts ourselves, and this one is comfortable and a good value for the price, with basic amenities. A lovely bottle of wine and some snacks were waiting for us when we arrived. The house is older (most windows, patio door) but spacious and remodeled in the kitchen and other rooms. The beds were comfortable though some linens (shams etc.) were a bit worn out. It's a short walk to the public beach (across the A1A and down past a couple of buildings). There is a crosswalk with two big flashing signs to stop traffic, which was great. The screened-in porch had some small holes/tears in some of the screens--since it was January (no bugs) it wasn't an issue for us--and though not a huge disappointment for our group, the foosball table pictured in the listing was not there. To be fair, we didn't have time to contact the host about it due to wedding preparations. When we did have occasion to contact her (arrival and departure), she responded quickly. The neighborhood is very quiet and the yard is charming with plenty of flowering bushes even in January. We appreciated that there were a few beach chairs in the garage and lots of beach towels. Tesi provides a booklet with a lot of information about the house and area which was very helpful. All in all a nice stay in Melbourne.

My family and I really enjoyed staying in this house. It’s in a nice neighborhood with a community park/playground/pool nearby and across A1A to the beach. The bedrooms are large, and the beds are so comfortable. The house has a nice layout and is decorated nicely. It was convenient to have a washer and dryer, and the house was stocked with dishes, pots and pans, cooking utensils, spices, etc. If we are in the area again, we will definitely check to see if this house is available.

This was by far the best stay we’ve ever had! Everything was clean and tidy! Although we had a couple of issues (none that was in anyone’s control) at the beginning Tesi and her husband were in contact in minutes to make our stay the most comfortable it could be! I would most definitely stay at any of her properties again! The beds are all super comfy and it’s very clean and tidy. If you need anything at all she responds with in the hour! She will go above and beyond to do everything for her guests! Everything was well stocked and had plenty of towels and toys and things for the beach! Highly recommend!

Great accommodations!! The rooms were perfect, especially for 3 teenage girls. Great location, not far from The USSSA Space Coast Complex, traffic was a breeze....The owner, Tesi was an absolute delight, was quick at helping us with an unexpected night at a different location. We highly recommend it to everyone.

Close enough cottage
This was our first time to have both my children, and their families on a vacation, and I believe we made a Great pick!! The Blue Fin Cottage was the perfect for our needs. When my youngest grandson saw how close we were to the beach, he named it the close enough cottage.

This home was so impressive! It was beautiful and extremely comfortable. It was just myself and my small dog as I stayed a month to get out of my condo during the pandemic and live in a private home next to friends I went to graduate school with. My bed was very comfortable as well as the furniture and blankets, pillows, I could go on and on but everything was in excellent shape. I loved the art work! The kitchen is very beautiful and there is a washer and dryer in the garage. Everything was provided. Soaps, paper towels, toilet paper, plenty of cooking stuff, a cute coffee/mini bar area etc...The neighborhood was extremely safe and there was a park about a mile away called Gleason that I walked to every morning that allowed dogs. There are a ton of great restaurants that do curbside pick up and being vegetarian was not a big deal; plenty of places to get great food at. I can't say enough about the owner. She responded if I had questions about how to use something or how to work the tv, etc...I was super impressed! I am planning on returning next month as they are working on my condo, (if there are openings when the work resumes). Quiet, a nice backyard, great neighbors and great neighborhood. I honestly hated to leave. IN fact if I could have stayed I would have!
