A well-maintained and clean property in a great location with beach access just across the street. Photos were accurate and the pool was really nice to have. Communication with the owner was clear and convenient. We will plan to stay here again in the future!

Cottage was fantastic and perfect for our group of five! Host was communicative. Everything was as advertised and clean. Beach access is close. Restaurants and Ice Cream in walking distance. It was honestly perfect for me and my family. Would definitely stay here again.

This place was amazing! It was the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in. We were able to check in as soon as the property was ready, which was earlier than expected and a nice bonus! The pool was the perfect size for a small family with older people and/or kids. This place is very family friendly, we would definitely recommend. 10/10!

We have stayed in the cottage several times. We did have some bugs in the house this time. Especially in the master bathroom. Love this cottage.

It was indeed my pleasure to welcome you back for another stay at The Mermaid's Pillow. I value my returning guests & appreciate your feedback. I am most concerned you experienced a few bugs during your stay. More than likely, they are palmetto or water bugs. The cottage is treated professionally on a regular basis for insects, etc. In the future, please contact me if there are any issues and I will address them at once.

This is a perfect beach cottage. It was clean, the host was easy to communicate with, it was across the street from the beach, the pool was great. All and all it was a fantastic rental. We were initially wary due to the lack of linens especially as guests who were flying in, but rented them and it was honestly quite simple. Would highly rec this place.

Our stay at 'Mermaid's Pillow' was nothing short of amazing! The check-in process was super easy and the house was spotless. The location is perfect since it's just steps from a crosswalk and quick beach access. The pool was perfect to relax in after a day at the beach. The decor is so well thought out and just adds to this being a perfect beach house. The host was very attentive to any questions we had. All of this combined made our stay a 5 star experience and we will be back!
