Make Merritt Island your next getaway

Merritt Island feels like Florida with the volume turned down: a ribbon of neighborhoods, lagoons, and wildlife refuges set between the Banana River and the Indian River. In Merritt Island, FL vacation rentals, you can wake up to palm-shaded quiet, then be on Cocoa Beach in minutes or watch a rocket rise over the water before breakfast.
