About this property
Steps From Sand! BEACH VIEW, 1 Blk to Park, 2 Blks to Restaurants, Pet Friendly.
Stay at the Mermaid's lair while she's away, frolicking with the Pirate! She created the perfect oasis for those times when one just needs a little peace, quiet and relaxation away from a crazy world that begs escape. Don't worry, the lair is thoughtfully stocked with all the amenities bipedal folks require. There is a fully equipped kitchen (dual ice maker in the fridge), all linens, including beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, etc... Just grab your suit, throw on your flip flops and make a RUN FOR THE COAST! This is a classic beach house with views of the water from Historic Seal Avenue. Covered, off street parking available for vehicles. Ideal for two couples or two small families (one king size bed, one queen size bed plus two inflatable mattresses available) - If you need more space than 2bdr/2bath, check out our other listing - also at this address, a separate 1bdr/1bath/kitchenette cottage which can be booked in addition (if available on the calendar- property listing number #371550)

We loved this house! It was so welcoming and the hosts thought of everything. The house was clean, has a fully stocked kitchen and you can see the ocean from the front steps. We will definitely book here again!
This was a great location with all amenities and cute beach decor. We were only there two nights but it was a wonderful stay. They even made us bread pudding! I highly recommend it!
We wanted a nice spacious place to stay near the beach that wasn’t in a high-rise condo. This place was absolutely perfect and we hope to stay there again!
Great location in Pass Christian - steps from the beach! Dog friendly makes it so convenient for our dog! Love the decor and charm! Would love to stay there again!
If you want to get away from the crowds of the Gulf Coast this is a wonderful place to stay. A short walk to the beach and an easy drive to some wonderful shopping and restaurants.
The house is very well appointed, comfortable with secure parking. Our hosts were very easy to work with.
This property is well appointed, very comfortable and in a wonderful location. Property owners easy to communicate with and responsive. Highly recommend this lovely spot on the coast.
This was our first time staying here, but we will definitely be back! The house is beautiful, has everything you need for your stay and is in a great location! The owners are awesome, leaving little touches like muffins and flowers, and they are very easy to communicate with!
My family and I had the most incredible stay! Every part of the home is simply perfection!! From the location, to the cleanliness, to the decor, to the wonderful little touches that that owners leave for each guest. We absolutely can't wait to go back:) Even our little dog, Mollie, at a terrific time!
The stay was awesome. We were greeted with delicious cupcakes and a nice note. The location was great just a block off the beach and the hosts were easy to contact and quick to answer any questions we had. Would recommend The Mermaid to anyone looking to enjoy the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
Perfectly located within sight of the beach and ocean! Easy access to beaches, short drive to restaurants and casinos ,quiet and comfortable! Every thing we wanted! We’ll be back!
This place was all we could have asked for and more. Quiet, close to everything, and just a couple minute walk to the beach. Kurt and Dana were excellent hosts and would recommend their place to anyone. Thanks for letting us crash at your place for the week!
The house was beautiful and clean. The location couldn't have been better. So close to the beach and restaurants, it could get any better. Absolutely perfect!!
We loved our two nights at this home. It’s furnished with lovely things and it’s competently run by friendly, prompt people. The fresh flowers and bakery treats left for us were such a thoughtful element. The proximity to the shore is perfect and the surrounding homes are beautiful to see. We slept well on firm mattresses and enjoyed our time immensely. We would stay again.
My best friend and I were looking for somewhere to meet for a short weekend beach get-away. This property was everything described and more!!! The house was just lovely and so well equipped. The owners even left us a delicious tray of chocolate covered strawberries for our weekend. We will definitely stay here again!
This is the perfect place for us. Clean, spacious and comfortable. Great place to enjoy some family time with our college daughter. Kurt and Dana are awesome! They communicated exceptionally well and are very helpful. Five plus stars!!!!

About the host
Hosted by Kurt Strange
We are a military family who fell in love with the coast when it was time to retire. Original southerners by birth, we find the gulf coast offers not only famous southern hospitality, but a rich blend of the various coastal culture from New Orleans to Florida (not to mention fantastic foods) that cannot be duplicated anywhere else on planet earth. We know this because we have traveled all over planet earth! The gulf coast is a special place and we consider it a privilege to be able to share it with others.
Why they chose this property
Our home was built post-Katrina in 2010 when the area was still struggling to revive itself. We've seen significant growth in the past decade.
What makes this property unique
Pass Christian is unique in its stately and peaceful setting among the considerable activities on the coast. It is the perfect quiet beach getaway with easy access to nightlife, casinos, water sports, shopping, museums, restaurants...you name it.
