The good and the ehhh

The good: Location fantastic - just a short walk to the beach. The bed was very comfortable, Publix is just a short walk, space was clean The ehh: Kitchen is very limited - hot plate was more like a warm plate, outdoor grill is just an electric George Forman grill, futon was very uncomfortable, parking is behind the Publix - a short walk, but not your own parking Overall, a cute small place good enough for two, but be prepared for cooking challenges and be creative…

Small Group Getaway

The bungalow was a good size for us. There were only 3 people in our group. I don’t think it would be comfortable for more. We were okay with the fact that there was no stove and oven. I just brought food from home already cooked and we reheated in the microwave when we didn’t eat out. The bungalow is really well stocked with kitchen dishes and utensils. The king size bed is really comfortable. Our son said the futon wasn’t very comfortable so we put a blanket on top before we put the sheet on. That seemed to work well. Bungalow was stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. There is a nice short walk to the beach. There is quite a bit of street traffic noise at night but it didn’t affect our sleeping. (It was Spring Break and there were sirens and motorcycles passing) Overall, it was a very nice beach vacation.

The property was a perfect size for our long weekend getaway. The condo is conveniently located to the beach and the grocery store, allowing us to maximize our time. It was a plus they provided chairs and beach towels since we had to fly in and weren’t able to bring our own stuff. The AC worked very well which is rare with beach condos. Even though it’s right on that main intersection, it quieted down at night so no issues for us there. The bed was comfortable. The water in the city has a strong taste, but these hosts provide a Brita which helps some. With that said, there are some small changes that could make a huge difference for future stays. The shower curtain/lining were moldy and should definitely be replaced. The toilet will not flush easily unless you stand there and hold it down until it entirely flushes. The towels aren’t good quality have clear signs of excessive use. More than 3, old, towels should be provided. The laundry room was dirty and the washer and dryer were moldy and rusty so to wash items (towels) didn’t really feel like it was getting anything clean. The greenery around the gates needs cleaned up, it’s starting to obstruct the walk way by the main gate. Any of the qualms we had are really easy fixes and we overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for us two and we would undoubtedly go back.

Marvelous Mermaid Bungalow

This was such a cute little place upstairs. Had many amenities you need, & short walk to the beautiful beach! The walk from the parking lot was so short,it was just like normal parking at any beach rental. A/Cworked great! Which is a NEED in Florida. Close to downtown also. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. And will be coming back!
