We had a wonderful stay! The hosts were fantastic to deal with—friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. The house itself was spotless, comfortable, and in a perfect location. While the mosquitos kept us from spending too much time on the beach, the deck was completely bug-free and became our favorite spot to relax. Overall, a great experience and we would definitely stay here again!

Great Island Family Property

We really enjoyed our stay on PEI at the house in Mermaid. Angie, Dillon and family were awesome hosts. The house a location were perfect for our home base during the several weeks we spent walking PEI Island Walk. We could have asked for a better house or better hosts.

Beautiful views but close to Charlottetown as well

The property was perfect for our family’s needs. Everyone had their own space, and we were able to cook meals for times when we weren’t going out. Quick and easy access to Charlottetown but very quiet and secluded.

Great home away from home

Our family rented this wonderful home as we visited the island. The home had plenty of room to have additional family stop in and visit without making the place feel over crowded. The home was in a nice and quiet neighbourhood where we took our son for a walk nearly every morning.

Relaxing...

This location met all our requirements. Ample room, a large yard for our puppies to enjoy, a beautiful deck to view the surroundings and the tranquil water a short walk away. A quiet neighbourhood and a very easy drive into Charlottetown and starting point for all those adventures across the island. Angie was always a phone call or text away to answer any questions or concerns we had and offered up dining suggestions as well! It was a wonderful, relaxing week...

Mermaid Beach House - Stunning Views

Mermaid Beach House is a beautiful property with the most amazing views of open marshes and the sea - we saw Herons fishing, so many birds and it was the perfect start and end to our day sitting out on the deck - absolutely stunning views and one of the quietest places to stay in a lovely neighborhood. Also so close to Charlotte town and surrounding areas - our Hosts left a pass to the Provincial Parks to enjoy and we used it every day. Would highly recommend - the photographs absolutely do not do justice to the open indoor space and there was absolutely everything our family needed for our stay - if you have children there is a whole playroom for them to enjoy. Angie and Dylan were the perfect hosts and responded to all our questions promptly. Yes, there are mosquitos in the marshes, grass and we were not able to walk down to the sea for this reason but our Hosts offered to come and spray to help with this. We were prepared due to other reviews and just took spray and bug zappers. We were able to sit on the deck without being affected at all. Just a stunning place and highly recommend no question.

Beautiful house and comfortable stay

Loved the views! House was well laid out for a bigger group of guests but even a small group of two was great to have room to spread out. Owners were very responsive and supplied everything you could hope for! The toy room was a bonus abd made the stay very exciting fir my toddler. Highly recommend. Do suggest having a car. Mosquitos were killer but expect that was due to time of the year and that are used to city living :).

Such a pleasure!

In this beautiful house, with its beautiful view, you feel like you never stop enjoying your vacation. We loved watching the birds — so many varieties— bring your binoculars! And we thoroughly enjoyed spending time in many different parts of PEI. The beaches are all distinct and we enjoyed the spectacular national Parks.. Angie was a wonderful hostess and checked in during our stay. She also left many supplies for our use— which was very helpful.
