Our 'A Mermaid's Tale' Vacation home is a wonderful cottage ideal for families, girls weekends even romantic couple honeymoons! A 5 minute walk to the main Tybee Island Beach, 2 blocks from door to beach. The main beach is wide, flat and ideal for walking, surfing and just enjoying the sand and surf.
Our home was featured on the 2008 Tybee Tour of Homes and was a big hit with all the visitors.
Pet Friendly- all pets welcome ( note- no fenced yard) Complimentary High Speed internet, both DSL and WiFi.
The home is ground level ( easy acess for all ages) with off street parking for 4 cars.
Mermaid Cottages is proud to sponsor a guide/service dog puppy each year (we have sponsored 7 dogs!) These service dogs give the invaluable gift of more productive, more independent lives to their owners. Our pet-friendly homes feature complimentary Beach Bum Dog Biscuits for your furry friend’s enjoyment! These wonderful treats are organic, peanut-butter based and made especially for us.
We support Sea Turtles in Georgia and around the world. The Tybee Sea Turtle Project has been working very hard to increase the number of loggerhead sea turtle nests. 2012 was a record-breaking year in large part because of our successful 'Lights Out For Sea Turtles' education we've helped sponsor. All our homes feature a starter supply of Mermaid Morning Bliss coffee which supports the sea turtle projects. This coffee is 100% organic Columbian craft-brewed coffee; again, created just for us!
The home has been completely remodeled and restored and full of bright and cheerful beach colors, art and comfy furniture. Updates include a brand new fully equipped kitchen and a family friendly open floor plan.
Each of the bedrooms feature flat screen TVs with DVD players and a 42' flat wall mounted TV in the spacious family gathering area which includes the living room, dining room, and kitchen.
There are ceramic and wood floors throughout.
Our outdoor areas are just as special! This includes a rocking chair filled side porch, a private back yard with two separate seating areas, and a perfect place for a relaxing outdoor massage.
We have two master bedrooms! The Garden Room and the Nautical Room are both large Master Suites with King Beds including their own full baths. Our other bedrooms include what our grand children love -the Bunk Room with it's bunk beds, trundle bed, seating area and flat screen TV with DVD.
This is the perfect family gathering home and if you have more then one large family, we have other Mermaid Cottages directly across the street including Under the Tybee Sun which also has 4 bedrooms AND a private pool! Pet Friendly as well!!!
Don't forget- if you're looking for a mountain getaway- that is Just as wonderful as our Tybee Beach house is our Mountain House on the highlands of the Roan at 4200 feet elevation (the views are breathtaking) in the mountains of north east Tennessee. We would love to have you visit there too. You can see pictures and details at our VRBO listing #29493.
NO SURPRISES HERE! Our cottage is professionally cleaned and managed by one of the top management companies on Tybee Island with 24/7 customer service.

A Mermaid's Tale was the perfect place for my college girlfriends to gather. Everybody thought the house was "darling" and spotlessly clean. We ate in one night and had ample cooking utensils; it's a well-equipped kitchen. Since we were all liberal arts majors, we couldn't get the TV or the WiFi to work, but we called for technical support and the nice man came right away and set us up! The only downside was that it was a very cold week-end for Tybee and we couldn't take advantage of all of the nice outdoor seating this house has. A colorful, comfortable place! We loved it.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We just returned from our stay on Tybee and I couldn't wait to write a review of this past trip. This was our second year spending the holiday in a mermaid cottages property. I didn't think we would be able to top our last year's trip (we stayed in the castaway, it was awesome too) but this trip was even better than last year's. It is always such a pleasure to deal with the mermaids because they treat you like family. I know if at any point we needed anything we didn't already have the mermaids would provide it! The mermaids tale cottage is fully stocked with anything you could possibly want to cook up a delicious meal for your family. The house was decorated beautifully and having not one but TWO master suites was amazing. The beds were so comfortable I slept sound every night we were there, which was 6 nights. Not one night of poor sleep! Another feature that made it so incredible is that each of the rooms had their own private bathrooms, we loved that! I highly recommend this cottage or any of The Mermaids Cottage properties they are delightful! Happy New year and see ya next year!!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The property management team is the best I have ever worked with! They really are the experience and the rest is the gravy! We had a wonderful time; lots of good memories for us, our grown children, their spouses and our grand kids. Thanks Mermaids; we'll be back!Did you find this review helpful?

This was our first Tybee vacation and we were in heaven. Used A Mermaids Tale as a secondary location for an extended family gathering. Combined with our rental of Under The Tybee Sun, we were able to provide ample space for children,parents and grandparents. I can not say enough about the friendly Mermaids. Can't wait to plan return trip.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The two day stay at the Mermaid's Tale was so enjoyable even though it rained both days. My<br/>family went to the beach anyway and had a good time. House was well stocked with a complete kitchen since we cooked in the first night we were there.The space was great since we had six family members with us and our little pets. The Mermaid staff Jan, and Denise were just so friendly and kind. We would certainly recommend this Cottage to our friends and family for future visits. Thanks Jan and Denise.We appreciate all the assistance given.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We loved our stay at Mermaid's Tale. My parents flew from Trinidad and Tobago to celebrate my 38th birthday and my daughter's high school graduation. After the weeks of hustle and bustle we totally enjoyed spending family time at the house. The house was spacious enough for everyone to sleep, the bedrooms were wonderful and oh so comfortable....The kitchen was great - we prepared meals without a hassle. We loved how close we were to the beach and we loved the quiet. The security of the area was also amazing. No worries about the children. We are already planning another trip and we will definitely use Mermaid Cottages. Thank you for a wonderful time.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

This is a very roomy, well appointed cottage. From the minute we walked in the door, we felt at home.. The decor was very cheery and the beds, sofa, etc were very comfortable. We also sat outside and enjoyed the yard areas. It was especially nice because we went with another couple and the fact that it has two Master Bedrooms with King beds and full baths was very appealing. We can't wait to come back. We enjoyed our stay very much.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0
