Everything you need when you are away from home in this very cute and comfortable house. We traveled with our 2 doggies and they loved it here. The backyard and screened in porch were perfect for their needs. When we arrived the house was sparkling..literally the floors were so clean they shined. Everything was very clean including the hot tub. Very fresh! Location, location, location..the beach is a short walk and restaurants, sports bar and groceries are a short drive or ride away. Great place to walk the dogs in this quiet neighborhood was a plus for our furry kids at the end of the day before relaxing in the hot tub . Thank you Phyllis!
Very cozy cute place. It was great letting our little dog out the back door to the fenced in yard. Beach is just a short walk down the road. Enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub.
Phyllis is a great host! The location was excellent and perfect for our 2 small dogs with the fenced in backyard. The Mermaid House is very clean in a wonderful neighborhood and we will be back.
We really enjoyed the property. Check-in was made simple and easy by Phyllis.
The house had everything that we needed and was right down the street from the beach access.
The hot tub came in handy since we were there over the holiday break and experienced some milder temperatures. definitely will return.
This was the 2nd time we have stayed in this exact property. Phyllis was awesome and super helpful. The property is as described.
We will definitely be returning.
The place is great. Looked just like the advertisrment on VRBO. So many great places to see and restaurants were close by with an excellent choices. Loved the fenced in yard for my dogs. Hot Tub was a plus. I cant wait to come back. 🙂🙂🙂
We absolutely loved this home! The color scheme and decor in the home are spot on for a mermaid house. We've stayed at a lot of homes, this one by far had the BEST hot tub!
We loved walking down to the beach and enjoy the quiet neighborhood.
We'd definitely stay here again!
To add: Loggerheads is the most delicious place!
Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We stayed at the Mermaid house for a few days during bike week and Phyllis was so accommodating and thoughtful. She checked in with us each day and gave great suggestions for some scenic routes to ride and restaurants to try. The house was perfect and we especially loved the hottub and extra parking for our sprinter van. The beds were super comfy and the carport area with rocking chairs was a great place to gather and enjoy the outdoors! We will definitely come back!
The neighborhood was amazing. Made fast friends with both permanent neighbors and vacation neighbors. The fenced in back yard was clean and safe for our dog to enjoy. Home was very well kept everything in great condition. We never had any issues. Beach access a straight short walk right and located right at the life guard station. Phylis was extremely nice, accomadating eager to help in anything we needed and easy to contact. Will definitely love to stay at her homes again.
We decided we needed a vacation, we never took a honeymoon and my wife’s father passed away after living with us for 8 months. This was perfect for us since we have 2 dogs, the house has a fenced in backyard. The host was awesome we got in earlier then plan and asked if could get in earlier and she made that happen, that is a big thing for us since we had our dogs and it was very warm out, and we were exhausted from the drive. She checked in and seen if we needed anything almost everyday. I would Recommend this property. The house was neat and tidy, yes there is no TV but there is things to do other then that so it was not a bother to us. We will definitely be going back if allowed in the future.

Thank you so much for the kind words! Happy to have you anytime!
The first night we came, the toilet and sink was broken. The owner repaired the toilet at noon the following day. The sink was never repaired. The hall property is very old and it’s not maintained well. The dining room does not have air conditioning, so we could not use it as the air was very staffy there.

I don't even know how to answer this. You walked into the property complaining. At first I figured you just had a long drive and were a little exhausted/grumpy. People are generally happy and friendly on arrival, but I figured that the drive had gotten to you . I truly wanted you ( and any of my guests) to have the best experience ever when they come to this little beach house.. As soon as I realized nothing I could say would help you have a good experience, I immediately called VRBO and had them help me find you new accommodations. BUT they needed you to call them so they could get you moved. You refused. I pride myself on guests having an amazing time - but I was at a loss with you. I do wish you the best and perhaps in the future a hotel might be a better fit.
We were searching for a beach over spring break where we could have a nice relaxing vacation with our family (including our 10 year old daughter, pooch, and guinea pigs). We were lucky to come across this property! It's in a great location at Ormand By The Sea, and is less than a block away from the beach. Laurie Drive is a really nice street with very friendly folks who live there. The house is about a block (or less) away from the beach (which has a lifeguard on duty), and the other side of the street gets you to the public access dock/ramp to the bay where you can go kayaking or paddle boarding.
The house is super cozy with two queen size beds, and a nice size kitchen and eating area. The living room and patio area are really nice to stretch out and relax with family. The backyard is fenced and perfect for a pet, and the hot tub in the backyard is a great way to relax and unwind after a busy day at the beach. There are no TV's in the house, although there is wifi if you want to connect to TV/streaming through your devices. But I have to say (even though we had a 10 year old) it was quite liberating to not be attached to a TV. It allowed for the family to spend more quality time together and really detach from the day to day routine.
Within walking distance is a Dollar General for your basic supplies, and the Publix, Dollar Tree, and several restaurants and other shops are a 3 minute drive away. Ormond Beach and all of the retail/restaurants are less than a 10 minute drive away. And if you want to go to Daytona it's about a 20 minute drive south.
Phyllis is a terrific host. We touched based with her almost daily as she's always around and making sure her properties are all top notch. She was super accessible and helpful (if we needed something she was quick to guide us in the right direction or help supply us with what we needed). There was one day where I had a bit of a snafu, and she even helped me figure out how to get to an urgent care to get myself squared away. She was great with my family and my daughter; truly enjoyed working with her!
This stay was terrific (and I suspect any stay in a house managed by Phyllis will be terrific). Highly highly recommend!
Quaint property perfect for the stress free getaway. Just a few steps to enjoy sunrise every morning and a few steps to the river to enjoy sunsets. Friendly atmosphere and pet friendly.
Phylis the owner has done a fabalous job in creating the perfect home to relax and get away from it all and enjoy the beach experience. The hot tub was a plus to relax and unwind at night.
Highly recommend!
Great little beach cottage. Was perfect for our stay, yard was wonderful for the dogs. Location was fantastic. Walking distance to beach and a nice park. Close to grocery store and restaurants. Nice peaceful neighborhood.
We so enjoyed our stay at Mermaid House! The cleanliness, splashes of color, proximity to the beach (and oh, that hot tub), were instantly inviting. Ours was a short stay whilst traveling further south, but it was so worth it. Big fenced backyard worked well for our furry family member. There is also an off-leash park a mile or so north of the house that is nice. Walks or short drives offered plenty of opportunities for food and drink. The beach was 2 blocks (or less) away on a straight walk out of the neighborhood.
So, if you're looking for a little peace and quiet in a super clean and comfortable house (with a fantastic hot tub and TV d
The house was just as advertised, super close to the beach. Nice “beachy” feel throughout. It was the perfect size for my husband and I and our fur baby. Phyllis was great at accommodating us with our check in date and letting us extend our stay. I also just want to say how much I appreciate the fact that she does allow dogs. It’s VERY hard to find a nice house with a fenced in yard that will allow a dog over 10lbs. My dog loved going for walks along the main strip everyday and loved to try to chase the squirrels in the backyard. Having a hot tub is also a major perk. Publix is less than a mile away for everything you need. I would recommend Phyllis to anyone as she was wonderful to work with. Thank you for a great stay!!
Very charming house with awesome proximity to the beach. The host was fantastic and very responsive. The beds were super comfortable and the hot tub was perfect! Overall, it was a nice place to stay.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Great location just a short walk from the beach. Got a great deal renting some boogie boards from Bill at the rental shop at the end of the same street. Got up and watched the sunrise from the beachside park as well.
Phyllis was an attentive host and made sure we had everything we needed for a family beach get away. We travel with our 3 big dogs and they were super happy with the fenced in yard and nice cool floors. Thanks!
This place is a hidden gem right down the street from the beach
Our experience with this property was stellar. Fence then backyard which allowed us to bring our dogs, screened in patio with a jacuzzi and a 5-minute walk to the beach. Close by shopping and restaurants as well. I definitely recommend staying here. I definitely will book again.
