Top Sanders Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Cape Canaveral by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend"

Beachside Hotel & Suites Cocoa Beach - Port Canaveral

8/10 Good

"Staff was extremely kind and the property is very kid friendly. The only bummer was there were no pool towels available. We waited about 20 minutes in the lobby for towels to be brought down, went ahead and got in the pool for over an hour to just grab towels when we were done, but towels had still not been brought to the lobby."

Crowne Plaza Melbourne - Oceanfront by IHG

8/10 Good

"Note to self... parking is across the street, busy A1A. Not very convenient at all. Trek up the steep stairs to cross over A1A with your luggage or play frogger trying to avoid traffic. OR pay for valet or block traffic while unloading luggage in front of the hotel entrance, then drive across the street to park (pull in the fire department entrance) then cross back over. Also, breakfast is NOT included. Usually you have one or the other... but to not have either, oof. Not impressed. You could hear doors and gates slamming all night long. Room and balcony doors didn't shut properly so make sure to double back to be sure you aren't leaving your room open. No hot tub. Beds were comfy as ever tho. Food was delish at the restaurant attached, expensive: 40+ bucks for 9 wings and a ceaser salad (with no protein). Took forever too. Ordered an NA beer when hanging by the pool, only had one option, tho menu said there were two, and it was warm. But atmosphere, right? As a last minute anniversary weekend away, on a holiday weekend nonetheless, there was a room available and we jumped. If given OPTIONS next time, I'd choose somewhere else."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cocoa Beach Oceanfront

10/10 Excellent

"This Hotel is a Definite Go! Front Desk staff were Welcoming and helpful. The hotel Staff were Awesome and supportive. The rooms were clean and spacious. Location on the beach and about a 3 minute walk to the pier. Pool was clean and refreshing. Breakfast was on point. The Price was right and I recommend this Hotel for your next stay. Very Happy Customer!"

The Inn at Cocoa Beach - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was such a delight to stay at! The staff were helpful and so sweet (especially the house mascots). I thought this place was intentionally curated and had everything I needed. Access to the beach and nearby shops/restaurants was really convenient and I would definitely stay here again."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Sanders?

The best times to visit Sanders are during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

Spring in Sanders offers comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 20-28°C (68-82°F), making it ideal for outdoor activities without the intense summer heat. You'll find the city's parks and gardens in full bloom, and it's a great time to enjoy the waterfront promenades. This period is particularly good for couples looking for a relaxed holiday exploring the city's charming districts and enjoying al fresco dining.

Autumn also provides lovely weather, with temperatures between 22-30°C (72-86°F), and the humidity tends to be lower than in summer. This season is superb for families, as the theme parks are less crowded, and there are often special events and festivals leading up to the holiday season. It's also a good time to visit the nature reserves and enjoy activities like kayaking or paddleboarding on the calmer waters.

While summer (June to August) is very popular, it brings high temperatures and humidity, along with larger crowds, especially around the major attractions. Winter (December to February) is mild but can be cooler, and some attractions might have reduced hours.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Sanders hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Sanders hotel?

Hotel prices in Sanders often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
