Response from VrboOwner on 1 Jun, 2026
So glad you all enjoyed The Mermaid House. You were our first VRBO guests, and you are welcomed back any time! Thanks for being exceptional guests!
About the host
Hosted by Kimberly Holz
I am a PA girl who always enjoyed getaways to the Jersey Shore! After discovering the bay area fifteen years ago, we have come back every season! We purchased the Mermaid house in 2019, and it's been my pleasure hosting since then!
Why they chose this property
This is a quiet peaceful neighborhood, only a 10 minute walk to the bay, and 4 blocks to Fleck's ice cream, voted best in Cape May county! It's a great location for a peaceful stay, yet only 15 minutes drive to the hubs of West Cape May and Wildwood.
What makes this property unique
If you enjoy privacy, comfort, and a quiet neighborhood, but also want to be close to the beach and excellent restaurants, Wildwood boardwalk and wineries, the Mermaid is for you! We also have a fully fenced yard, so if you like bringing the pups with you, we are happy to accommodate them, also!
