Enjoyable stay at the Mermaid house

8 adults stayed here recently and we really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful views, a nice clean home and a well stocked kitchen. Had one issue and the host and owner were extremely responsive and fixed the problem right away. I would recommend this home and I hope to stay there again.

Beautiful location at Sea Ranch

Our group of 7 adults had a lovely stay at the Mermaid House. The location is fantastic with a great view and right by the bluff hiking trail.The house was clean and comfortable. Lots of mermaid art and a very bright foam green kitchen. There was one issue with a leaking cistern but the manager responded promptly.The kitchen is very well stocked with cookware, utensils and miscellaneous food items.

Terrific Sea Ranch gem with close view of the water

My family and I loved staying at this property in Sea Ranch! We’ve been to Sea Ranch a few times and this was our favorite property; it had gorgeous views of the water from every bedroom and the main room / kitchen. The house had such whimsical charm with the mermaid/ocean theme throughout. The kitchen was well-stocked and also close to the nearby Gualala supermarket. We loved staying here and would love to come back.

great location

The house has a great location and view. Beads are comfortable. Maintenance was not great, in that several blinds were broken, and sliding glass doors did not work well.

Pretty Mermaid!

I've stayed in many Sea Ranch homes and each has its own unique flavor. The Mermaid house lives up to its name and we found it quite charming. The owners definitely went all in on the theme, and while it kitschy, it's fun and quite well appointed.

Comfort in an outstanding location

This comfortable house is literally steps away from the trail bordering the ocean cliffs. The very well-equipped kitchen suited our crew of cooks, and we loved being able to walk to the Rec Center.

This property is fantastic! The location could not be any better due to it being ocean front with unobstructed views. Step out onto the numerous decks or simply open up the many sliding glass doors and hear the ocean waves against the rocks. Paradise!
