Spectacular place to stay. Amazing view. Serene. Mermaid theme a little over the top, but didn't take away from the experience. Very comfortable house with modern bathrooms. Will certainly stay there again!

Enjoyable stay at the Mermaid house

8 adults stayed here recently and we really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful views, a nice clean home and a well stocked kitchen. Had one issue and the host and owner were extremely responsive and fixed the problem right away. I would recommend this home and I hope to stay there again.

Wonderful location and the 3 Queen bedrooms all have views. House allows both togetherness and separateness depending on your mood. Dining table great for meals and games. Very clean except for the windows. Kitchen well-stocked except for decent wine opener and sharp knives (and bring Nespresso pods if you prefer to drip coffee.) Host communicates in timely manner--home access through door combo lock easy. Mermaids everywhere.
