Beautiful House But Trash Outside and In Yard
We had a nice stay w two families. House was nice and we enjoyed getting to use the grill.
The one downside, which was a bit troubling, was there was trash all over the yard. We called and wrote the management company, and to their credit, the next day they had someone pick up the overflowing trash bins. The trash in the back yard and side yard was not however picked up - we picked up much of it ourselves.
After a few days, we discovered there is a small black bear living in the neighborhood; we notify the management company and informed them they need bear, proof, trash, cans we also spoke with the neighbor, and he indicated we also had three raccoons. Who could imagine! In the end, the bear and raccoon made an enormous mess - we ended up keeping the trash in the house.
One final note - the house has a for sale sign. I believe the owner has called it quits on the house. We enjoyed our stay - house and porch (and grill in back) we’re nice. The master king Bed needs to be replaced. In the meantime d, a bit of a mixed bag. This was our third stay in Mexico Bewch in two years and this would be at the bottom of my list - but the company we had made the trip great.

Great affordable vacation home
Great location. Clean and spacious for 9 of us. 5 adults and four kiddos. We had to fix a couple of the door handles upon arrival and the blender was broken, and the no propane for the propane grill, but a new charcoal grill was dropped off during our stay, but all minor issues. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

Great Space
The location was perfect. It is in a quiet neighborhood that’s a short walk to the beach. The house was beautiful and clean. We had everything we needed.
The king sized and queen sized bed are VERY firm. Adding a quality mattress topper would make the beds more tolerable. However, the twin sized beds were very comfortable-some adults in our party had to retreat to the twin sized beds in search of comfort.
Overall, it was a great place to stay.

Outstanding!
We loved Mermaid Manor! It’s even prettier than the pictures show! Ten of us fit comfortably and it was a quick walk to the beach. Not really a complaint, but just something to be aware of, if you plan to eat cereal, bring bowls- we could only find 2. Otherwise, our stay was fabulous.
