Compare 5 airports near Cocoa Beach
For travelers arriving in the region, Melbourne Orlando International Airport (MLB) is the clear winner for convenience. While located in the nearby city of Melbourne, it is the closest gateway to Cocoa Beach and handles both domestic and limited international traffic. Orlando International Airport (MCO) serves the city of Orlando and is the most popular choice for international travelers due to its extensive connectivity; it requires a longer transfer but offers diverse transport modes. Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB), also in the city of Sanford, is a quieter alternative often used by budget carriers. Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) and Tampa International Airport (TPA) serve Palm Beach and Tampa respectively, and are significantly farther away, making them viable mostly for travelers who find much cheaper airfares or need to visit those specific cities as part of their trip. For the best experience, choose MLB if flight schedules permit; otherwise, MCO provides the most reliable ground transportation network.

Unfortunately I had a ground floor room, so people walking past all the time. And could hear people in the room next door. Room ok and the bed was very comfortable. Great location on the beach. Pool very small, but outdoor tiki bar on the beach was nice. Great reception staff.FromUS$169

They were very accommodating with my family. We happened to be a very late check in and last minute booking for the first night and it was taken care of in less than 15 minutes. We decided to stay a second night this hotel was so much fun and being super close to the beach the girls (teens) were in heaven.FromUS$132

Being renovated, it is very gray and very noisy. Looking for the front desk for a long time. The room itself is OK, there is no washing machine in the room, the public area needs to pay $1.75. It is still very close to the beach and has a small open-air swimming pool.Great101 Reviews

The breakfast was good in a spacious room with an ocean view~
The lobby, restaurant, and hotel building are all separate, so you have to keep moving around, and the interior of the building is very old, but it's a good place to stay.FromUS$136

Reception staff are welcoming and very helpful, namely Suzanne. Rooms have been renovated but still feel dated with a cheap makeover. Lobby area and restaurant is better. The photos make the hotel look a lot nicer. Car parking is an astonishing $12!FromUS$175

The hotel is one block from Cocoa Beach, and it is very convenient to walk there. Next to it is a surf equipment shop. Opposite the hotel is a small square with McDonald's and other small restaurants. The facilities and services of the hotel itself are okay, but there is a gap between the level and expectations of the Sheraton Hotel.FromUS$170
