    Was a great location. Loved how homey the house was and the decor was perfect. Our host, Mrs Rosemary, was very courteous, helpful, and was always quick to respond to our needs and questions. It was all we could have asked for and then some for a great vacation. Would definitely go back and absolutely will recommend to friends and loved ones!!!

    Mermaid house was great! Location was so close to the beach and having the private beach entrance and beach area was so convenient. Our kids loved having the bikes to ride around the neighborhood, which is very quiet and we felt safe letting them ride whenever they wanted. The pool was huge and our family of 7 had plenty of room to all be in at the same time.

    Overall was a great time and place. Pool was a great size for the entire family. Only issue at all was the HOA president telling us to move our golf cart as soon as we parked it to move cars around. When we told him what we were doing to rearrange he didn’t seem to care or be interested in what we said.

    Best vacation ever! The house was beautiful and clean. There was plenty of room for everyone and plenty to do. The pool was wonderful and private. Short walk to a gated private beach with chair and umbrellas for rent. It was close to shops and the best restaurants. The beds were comfortable TV’s in all rooms. Board games and books available. Bikes, pool toys/floats and a golf cart in the garage as well as an extra refrigerator. We did not use any of the bikes or the golf cart but was nice they were so convenient. The owner was very helpful and answered all messages within minutes. I will definitely be back!

    We took 4 grandkids ages 9-17. House was set up perfect. We paid for the pool to be heated and well worth the extra money!! Short, nice, easy walk to the beach. Clean. Loved having linens and towels, saved space on packing. Only complaint is wished there were better frying pans, but what's there definitely took care of our needs. Definitely will rent again.

    This house needs a deep cleaning! It’s very dirty and by dirty i mean filthy. We traveled with kids ages 3-10 and the property is just disgusting. It has a nice coastal vibe and a beautiful beach that’s located just 1min walking distance from the house, which is a game changer. The owner is older and maybe she doesn’t care about the cleanliness, but she really should invest in couple updates. The dryer requires 2 cycles to dry 6 towels, toaster is only working on 1 side, front door lock got stuck couple times (we couldn’t enter the house and had to contact the owner), bikes in the garage are old and rusty, the golf cart is veeeery old and not working at all, grill is in horrible condition, outside furniture are old and had mold all over (no furniture cushions), pool area needs a solid power washing. Inside of the house is disgusting and it made us so angry when we arrived. We stayed there for a week (8 people) and there were only 2 paper towels, 4 garbage bags, 6 rolls of toilet paper, no Windex and a tiny dish detergent. We had to buy everything ourselves which is ridiculous. The owner wanted to send a cleaning person, but the house should be cleaned before our arrival not when we needed some privacy and relaxation. I wish i could submit all the photos i took, but unfortunately it’s not an option when posting a review…Reconsider renting this property… that’s all i have to say!

    We had a glitch getting in the house, key pads did not work. Rosemary had someone let us in quickly. Will be contacting her about no beach access.

    Nice location, home needs many updates. Home stays really hot inside, doors dont seal. The house needs a good deep clean. Carpet needs cleaned in rooms.
