Unlike many beach side properties this one features a large parking area with room for six cars. A car is nice to have to see attractions further inland but guests without a car can take the Suncoast Trolley (trolley stop is a few steps from the front of the house) up and down the Pinellas County beaches from Clearwater Beach to St. Pete Beach. Indian Shores features dedicated walking and separate bike path lanes. There's plenty within a 2 mile radius - ice cream shops, Smugglers Cove mini golf, the seabird sanctuary, and tons of great restaurants. By car the house is 5 minutes from a Publix; Target and numerous other stores are all within a 15 minute drive. We love spending time at 'Three Mermaids and a Crab' and hope you will, too!

We had a fabulous stay at Three Mermaids and a Crab! Extremely clean property, had everything that we needed. Pool was amazing and close beach and trolley access were a huge plus. Would love to visit again!
Heated pool was great! Had a couple cold days over spring break but kids could still swim in the warm pool. Great location not far from restaurants and easy short walk to beach.
The house (very clean), furnishings (updated), and pool were exactly as pictured. The host, Steven, was very helpful with questions. The location was terrific, walked to the beach (expansive sand) in minutes without crossing a street, and no crowds. Dining, grocery, mini golf (pricey, but impressive layout) and ice cream shops mostly walkable or few minutes by car. Visited attractions in Tampa, St. Pete and Clearwater with 30 - 45 minute travel time. Very enjoyable for entire family, grandparents, parents and 8 year old grandson! Definitely a keeper!
We had an amazing stay! Super close to the beach and an amazing pool!We love your Beach House! The three mermaids and a crab is forever in our memory. We will definitely be coming back!
Wonderful property -- great location -- photos accurately show you the facilities. Plenty of room in the open area & bedrooms. Welcoming host -- beach equipment & a private pool too. Felt safe & value for the money. No problems during our stay.
We enjoyed our stay at 3 Mermaids and a Crab over New Year's, especially its proximity to the beach and of course the wonderful heated pool. It was the perfect property for our multi-generational family vacation—highly recommended!
We had an amazing stay and would absolutely return. The house truly had everything we needed for a perfect beach vacation. It’s a quick 30-second walk to the beach, which was uncrowded and spacious—such a treat. The beach setup was fantastic: six chairs, beach towels, plenty of sand toys, and a wagon to easily haul everything down.The home was fully stocked for cooking, including a grill, and having a washer, dryer, and coffee maker made everything so convenient. The pool was a huge bonus and surprisingly warm—even with outside temps around 52 degrees, our kids happily swam every day. We also loved being within walking distance to DJ’s Clam Shack (best lobster roll we’ve ever had!).Steve was an outstanding host—when we unexpectedly ran out of toilet paper, he was there within 20 minutes to help us out, which we really appreciated.Our only very minor notes were that there wasn’t a towel hook right outside the shower door and there were no washcloths in the master bathroom, but these were small things in an otherwise perfect stay. Highly recommend this property for families or anyone looking for a relaxing, well-equipped beach getaway!
Everything was fantastic, loved the upgrades in the house from last year.We love the cleanliness of the house the proximity to the bench, the pool, and our favorite places to eat ( except dockside Dave's --which hasn't reopened yet ) already looking forward to next year!
Excellent property, great location! Our 2nd time here! Love being so close to the beach, having all the beach 'stuff' and the private pool area! Great amenities - more than listed here. We can't wait to come back!
We have stayed here before. It’s a beautiful and cozy house. Loved the pool and the fact that the beach access is so close! The beach chairs and towels were a very thoughtful
This property is great! The home is neat & cozy with plenty of room for all. We spent a good bit of time out by the pool and were just steps from the beach. It was a great place to get away from regular life for a bit!
