Heated Pool & Hot Tub · Walk to Beach · Sleeps 22

Cannonball into the heated pool while the grown-ups sink into the hot tub, then make the easy walk to beach access for salt air and sandcastles. At sunset, everyone claims a recliner in the home theater, and the kids sneak off to the game room for one more round of Pac-Man before bed. This is Lunar Tides in Melbourne Beach, the home base for the family reunion, birthday trip or team weekend everyone will still be talking about next year.

ABOUT THIS SPACE
With 8 bedrooms, 7.5 baths and room for a large group, Lunar Tides sleeps 22. There's room for the whole crew. It's a two-story home where everyone can spread out all day and still end up together at night.

Step inside and the home theater is right there on your right: three rows of recliners and surround sound, ready for movie night with the whole crew. Down the hall, the downstairs master is the first of five king suites, each with its own en-suite bath, a quiet retreat for grandparents or anyone who wants a little distance from the fun upstairs.

The heart of the house is the open kitchen, living and dining area. Cook together on the double-oven range with an air fryer, blender, crock pot, bakeware, toaster and dishwasher, then gather around the long dining table or pull up a stool at the island. Mornings start at the coffee bar with espresso, drip and pods. The living room has big sectionals and an oversized TV for game day.

Upstairs is where the kids disappear. The game room pairs a casino-style poker table with arcade games, including Pac-Man and an arcade basketball shooter. Every bedroom opens off the upstairs gathering space and has its own TV and bathroom.

Sleeping arrangements:
- Five king suites, including the downstairs master
- One room with two double beds
- The space-themed bunk room with a rocket bunk and an enclosed slide
- The Paris-inspired Dior room with a loft bed, where young guests walk their own red carpet
Past guests rave about these themed kids rooms, and the kids will argue over who gets which one.

Out back, the fenced backyard is your own resort: the heated pool, a bubbling hot tub, loungers, covered patio dining and a BBQ grill. Inside you'll also find a washer and dryer, a dedicated workspace, Wifi, a high chair, baby gates and kids' dinnerware. Beach gear is ready too: chairs, a cooler, a wagon and games for the sand.

LOCATION & WHAT'S NEARBY
Lunar Tides sits in Harbor Island, a gated community in Melbourne Beach on Florida's Space Coast. Guests get gated beach access through the Harbor Island Beach Club, with covered restrooms and outdoor showers, and Coconut Point Park beach is about a 15-minute walk. The neighborhood also has a resort-style community pool and docks on the bay for sunset strolls.

Close to home:
- Beachside Creamery for ice cream (0.6 mi)
- Publix for groceries (1.8 mi)
- Skewers (4.9 mi)
- BB's Beach Bar (5 mi)
- Big Island Burritos (5.1 mi)

Kennedy Space Center is about an hour's drive north, and rocket launches are a highlight of any Space Coast trip, so check the launch schedule before you arrive. The protected dunes nearby are sea turtle habitat, so watch for nests in summer.

WHO THIS HOME IS BEST FOR
- Family reunion trips: 8 bedrooms means every branch of the family gets its own room and bathroom, and the dining table fits the whole crew.
- Large group getaways with friends: movie nights, poker nights and pool days without anyone feeling crammed.
- Sports tournament teams: recent guests booked for a baseball tournament and loved having the whole team under one roof.
- Families with young kids: themed kids rooms, a slide in the bunk room, baby gear and a fenced backyard.
- Pet friendly travelers: well-behaved dogs are welcome with approval, and a pet feeding station is waiting.
- Space fans: plan your stay around a launch at Kennedy Space Center, then come home to the pool.
