Great location! This home is perfectlyLocated for our families activities. Walk to the beach, nearby park, restaurants and even the boardwalk. Home has many great local touches from coffee mugs to pictures that make it feel much more like a home instead of the typical vrbo rental. Host is great to communicate with and checked in on us several times to make sure our needs were met. Will definitely try to stay here again next time we are in the area.

This is a beautiful cottage just a block or so from the beach. It can accommodate 2-4 persons easily and has a futon for an extra bed. Everything in this house was beautifully decorated and so comfortable. The kitchen served us well with many amenities. It was a delight to stay here...... I highly recommend this property.

Cozy beach bungalow

My family and I stayed at the Merry Mermaid while in town for a wedding. The space was so cozy and inviting, and stayed cool with constant sun. Walking to the beach every morning was a huge highlight, and the beds were very comfortable as well! Hoping to get back here again some day.
