Beach Haven

We loved this property and it was perfect for our family! It was very clean and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were great. The location can't be beat, the beach is half a block away and you can walk to restaurants and shops. The porch is great for relaxing with morning coffee or eating outside. We would definitely come back and stay again!

Tybee Family Vacation

To be honest, I was a little hesitant regarding the layout of the house… But, upon walking in on arrival, it was very very nice!!! Communication before, during and post visit w Mermaid Cottages reps were fantastic! We were within a pitching wedge to the 17th street beach access ramp! The IGA grocery store was 5 blocks away! Perfect location!!!!!! Thank you Mermaid Cottages for a great trip!! We will be back!
