Great Property!
My husband, , two granddaughters (ages 4 &7), two boys ( pets) and I had a wonderful stay at Kelena’s Kabana. Gary and Kelena couldn’t have been any nicer! We spent days on the beach, at the pool and drove to Orlando a couple of days to visit the parks while we visited Melbourne. The boys enjoyed evening rides on the golf cart & we loved having the use of it to go to and from the beach. It helped keep our car clean & virtually sand-free. We even got to see a rocket launch while visiting. The outdoor kitchen area was a nice place to cook and enjoy our meals & it kept the house from getting hot while preparing meals. The fire pit was a nice touch & was great for enjoying s’mores with the kids. Kelena and Gary have put so much thought into what one might need while staying there and have taken the comfort of their guests seriously. The kabana was well stocked and so organized! We very much enjoyed our stay and will certainly visit again!

Everything and More
Kelena's Kabana was a wonderful and unique retreat for us while we were visiting our son. This unit was super cute, private, and stocked with everything you could imagine you might need. Gary and Kelen were so friendly and accommodating and made you feel welcome. The patio and pool area were a beautiful spacous extension of the indoors. We utilized the fire pit, outdoor kitchen and patio every day! The Kabana is very pet friendly and the patio, outdoor kitchen, firepit, and dog potty area are fenced in to keep your pet with you while you are enjoying the outdoors. A highlight of the week was being able to take the golfcart to the beach and around town. It was so convenient to get to the beach, or to watch the sunset from the Melbourne Beach Pier or Ryckman Park. We had a wonderful stay and made some great memories!

We had a family of four stay for 4 nights. Highly recommend the golf cart to cruise to beach or downtown. We had a great time exploring Melbourne Beach, Cocoa Beach and even St. Augustine one day. We went to local mass, beach, played disc golf, breweries, sports bars for march madness games, etc. The house was perfect. 4 days was max for family of 4 because a little tight but if only 2 we would have stayed a week. We took advantage of outdoor space with grill and fire pit. Even make fresh squeezed OJ in the mornings. Nice spot!

Spectacular Hosts
There is nothing the hosts didnt think of to make this an amazing stay. The property is beautifully dercorated and has every ammenity you could possibly need or want. The hosts live on the property and are available to answer any questions or concerns you may have. Kelen left us a welcome basket of Florida oranges to make fresh squeezed juice and cute beach themed doughnuts. Our dog was traveling with us and was very welcomed. The property is in a great location to great dinning options and is within walking distance to the beach. We will 100% stay here again if we are back in the area.

Winter Escape
A private, peaceful and beautifully landscaped property that provided the winter escape we needed from cold weather. The warm, fragrant air was the first thing I noted when we parked our car in the guest spot. The Kebana was well supplied with everything we needed for our stay and within walking distance to the beach and golf course. Comfortable accommodations and spa shower. If the weather had been better we definitely would have used the outdoor grill and kitchen with a sitting area in the Florida sand. Hosts were very responsive when needed and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Our family had an amazing time. If you use their golf cart you have a locals parking sticker. We were able to park at the local beach. The property is clean and beautifully landscaped/decorated. All essentials were provided, even a special towel for my dog. We couldn’t have asked for better accommodations and hope to be back, although we may try to book their larger property that holds 14 next time. Great experience, and just what our family needed!

Everything you need.
The property is great. Comfy bed and even the pull out couch was comfortable. Every amenity has been thought of. Soap, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, paper towels; a toaster, blender, toaster oven, range top, keriug coffee maker, sunscreen, bug spray… We used the grill to make steaks from the local market. There were seasonings in the outdoor kitchen as well as foil and other grill items. Rent the golf cart. It was so easy to put everything on it (beach towels, chairs, umbrella, beach bag, football, cooler provided) and drive 2 minutes around the corner to the beach; which is super nice and quiet. Excellent hosts who recommended a few things to us and then gave us privacy. My daughter swam in the pool once, but we loved the beach. The grounds are very pretty with tropical foliage. We used the 2 bikes a few times (lock provided). Just a perfect vacation. Would recommend to anyone.

We had a wonderful stay at Kelen's and Gary's "kabana." It was as advertised. They thought of all the amenities that guests would need for their stay. The place is beautifully decorated and spotless; the kitchen is well-stocked. We enjoyed meeting the sweet owners who were very communicative prior to and during our stay. They also provided suggestions on places to visit and dine at. The beaches were minutes away and had ample parking. We'll be back to visit when our travels take us back to Melbourne Beach!

Perfect Beach Retreat!
Kelanas Kabana offers everything needed for a relaxing stay near Melbourne Beach. The apartment is spotlessly clean and well equipped. The hosts thought of every detail from supplies in the bathroom to spices and coffee in the kitchen. The decor is lovely and it’s obvious to see all the love and thought they put into each aspect of the Kabana. It’s very easy to get to the the beach right down the street. We enjoyed the ease of using the beach parking at the end of the street where public restrooms are available along with picnic tables and benches to sit and enjoy the view after long walks on the beach. We also utilized the beach chairs provided at the Kabana. Also, at the Kabana, there are many places to enjoy the outside spaces with an abundance of seating options in sun or shade. And, of course, the pool is beautiful with lots of seating there to relax. The hosts, Kelena and Gary are so friendly and go the extra mile to ensure we had everything we needed and yet gave us our privacy. Our stay overlapped with the recent Hurricane and they kindly invited us to stay until our flight home could be rescheduled. Luckily for us the Kabana had a few nights free! We highly recommend a stay here! Wonderful hosts and a perfect location for a beach getaway!

Picture Perfect
Kelena's Kabana was as advertised and more. From the moment you pull into the parking spot you begin to experience the outdoor paradise that they created. A curvy walkway leads you right to the gate, but before you get there you are surrounded by many different flowers and trees. When you open the gate the adventure begins. They have everything you can possibly think of for the beach. There are bicycles, outdoor shower, outdoor kitchen and many different kinds of lounge chairs to just chill out and take it all in. Next to that is the pool gate. When entering the pool gate there is a wood walkway surrounded by sand that leads you to an outdoor bar area and a crystal clear private pool including pool amenities and more lounging areas. The area around the pool is breathtaking as it is surrounded by more beautiful trees and landscaping. The inside of the Kabana was absolutely perfect for the two of us. The Kabana was up to date and meticulously cleaned. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything a kitchen should have including a brand new ice cream scoop. The bed is very comfortable and all linens and towels are supplied. The Kabana is located only a block from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. It is also next to a park and a golf course. There are several different areas at the beach that you can choose to go to which has bathrooms, covered picnic areas and large viewing areas to gaze at the stunning sunrise. You can choose to take your car or the golf cart. We stayed here for 3 weeks and tried many different restaurants and none of them disappointed us. Our favorite restaurant was Nini's Cuban Cuisine. We enjoyed breakfast at the Blueberry Muffin, Sand on the Beach and Beachside Cafe in Melbourne Beach. We ventured out to Cocoa Beach and enjoyed Squid Lips, Pig & Whistle and Sandbar Sports Grille. We also went to Palm Bay and ate at the Lazy Turtle and The Shack which is right on the river. For a more exquisite dining experience you should visit Djon's Steak and Lobster House. There is plenty to do here. I recommend Poolies if you are a true pool player. The Kabana is about 1.5 hours away from all the Disney/ Universal attractions. Overall, we consider this our best VRBO experience ever and would highly recommend Kelena's Kabana. Gary and Kelen were amazing hosts. We look forward to coming back and doing this all over again.

It is located right in the middle of some amazing beaches. If you’re looking for a small town feel vacation, this is your place.

Beautiful, Relaxing and Fun!
We had a phenomenal time staying at Kelena’s Kabana! It was the perfect size for our family of 3 and beautiful inside and out. Everything was super organized and clean - and for folks who traveled in on a plane all of the extras were very much appreciated (beach towels, linens and bath towels, toiletries and kcups, beach chairs, etc)! The outdoor kitchen area is amazing. We were close to the beach and utilized the golf cart to drive there (so fun!) We hung out at the beach, the pool at the Kabana, and spent a day at the Kennedy Space Center (very much recommend)! We also ate a lot of good food - Nini’s Cuban Cuisine, Squid Lips, Little Dos, Sand on the Beach, and for breakfast we liked Sunnyside Cafe. Good ice cream at Moo’s Soft Serve. We will 100% be staying at Kelena’s Kabana again in the future!

I had the pleasure of staying at Kelena's Kabana for 7 weeks. Probably the best vacation I have ever had. The Kabana was incredibly clean & well stocked with everything I needed. Gary and Kelen were incredibly kind hosts and checked in with me often to be sure I had all that I needed. Their Kabana is literally an oasis that brought tranquility and privacy so I could work when needed. The beach is right around the corner-an easy and fun golf cart ride away. The outside area is what I loved most-it feels like you are on a deserted island-very private and tranquil. I would highly recommend this retreat and would definitely go back to stay there!!

Loved the feel of the space!
From the moment we arrived we felt welcomed by the hosts. The location is close to all Melborne has to offer. In preparation for our trip we packed everything we felt we needed. We should have left half of it at home. The amenities, both inside and outside, we expansive. If you think you might need something to make your trip comfortable the hosts had already thought of the item. Jayne and I travel extensively and this is the 1st location to have a juice press and of course they added a bag of Florida oranges for our use!! We did get out quite a bit and found a wonderful local brewery close by. If you are one to sample local beer make an effort to go to Intracoastal Brewing. You won't be disappointed. We were not able to take a dip in the beautiful pool available to guests due to the unseasonable temperatures but wished it had been warmer. My suit stayed packed but take yours. Thanks to the hosts for a very relaxing week!!!!!!
