An absolute gem of a find

My husband found The Tipsy Mermaid condo and we instantly booked as we were looking for a “on the beach” spot. This place was clean, modern, and on the first floor ON THE WATER. The booking was easy, the communication was very prompt with the owners and they checked in to make sure are needs were met. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend the week as everything was perfect! They also have two more rentals. We will definitely be holding on to there information and will absolutely book with them again. Thanks for making our stay unforgettable. -W & L

EXCELLENT

You can't beat this 1 bedroom condo. Communication and flexibility with the owner was excellent they checked on us after the area had severe weather and just exceeded our expectations. The location is easy access to everything you need. We walked to Pineapple Willy's every day. If you are wondering about the property. The two smaller pools are heated but the large lagoon pool is not which would probably be fine for most in the summer. We brought our own beach chairs but the unit does have 2. We didn't see an umbrella but that was fine for us. Just be aware that if you want beach service it is about $250 for the week. We had a great time and would definitely rent again.

Thank you so much for the 10/10 rating! We were so happy to host you, and we’re glad that our communication helped put your mind at ease during the weather event—your comfort and safety are always our top priority. We truly appreciate you sharing those helpful tips with future guests, especially regarding the pool temperatures and the beach service. It’s great that you were able to take advantage of the easy walk to Pineapple Willy’s every day; that location really is hard to beat! We’re also glad you found the beach chairs useful during your stay. We would love to welcome you back anytime. Thank you for choosing to stay with us!
