Best Western Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral
Super close to the beach. They kept our luggage for free the day of our early arrival and the day we left so we can enjoy the beach. They gave us access to the heated pool for free the whole day we checked out since our flight was at 9pm. Super friendly staff. Highly recommend.
