We had a wonderful visit! House was perfect for our family. The setup, all the extras provided, really comfortable beds, large tvs in each room, kitchen with everything (we cooked our full Thanksgiving dinner), large dining tables both inside and on the awesome screened back porch, and the warm, very enjoyable, relaxing pool. April was the absolute best to work with providing excellent communication. We look forward to visiting SE Florida more often and April's house will be the first place we reserve!! FYI, if you scuba dive, the house is a 5 minute drive (could walk also) to Deerfield Beach inlet making is so convenient. We all loved everything about this house and trip. You have my highest recommendation to stay at April's place! ##### Kathy A.

Our family had a wonderful time at Mermaid Bay! We had 5 adults and 2 children (1 and 3). The house is large enough for everyone to have their own space. April and Stefan were fantastic hosts. There were a few minor things that needed fixing during our stay, and they were quick to get it done. The pool was great and we noticed that our skin did not get dry or itchy as you often experience from pools. We enjoyed watching the neighborhood iguanas and other lizards right in the back yard. The property is close to multiple parks that the kids enjoyed. It is also close to any shopping or restaurants that you could imagine. We had a few fun days at the beach and it was nice to have beach chairs, towels, and sand toys to use. With having young kids, we spent most of our time at the property. We did venture out to Butterfly World and Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. Both were good experiences! We will keep Mermaid Bay in mind the next time we’re looking for a relaxing vacation! ##### Kate L.

This property was better than expected! First, April and Stephan are wonderful hosts. They were available, honest, easy to work with and approachable. They made the process easy! The house was an older home, but well maintained. It was so very clean. We were very comfortable there. They provided all of the essentials, which made traveling easier. Each bathroom, (3 full ones), were stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. They provided all the paper goods. There were plenty of extra pillows and blankets - and the bed were made nicely upon arrival. They provided an abundance of towels, as well as a surplus of beach/pool towels. They provided coffee and sugars, as well as condiments like salt/pepper, ketchup and spices. This made settling in so easy. The house met all of our needs and we were extremely comfortable there. But...it's the back yard that made the vacation week!!! The pool and patio are spectacular! It was like a private oasis. The pool was warm and crystal clear. There were pool loungers and patio chairs. There were plenty of umbrellas if you wanted shade. This back yard made all the ages with us happy. We had coffee on the patio every morning and finished each day all together- some swimming, some relaxing on chairs\~ us, the kids and the grandparents too! The location was within walking distance to a restaurant. This also turned out to be a surprising A+ situation. We were able to take a short stroll to grab a bite and a drink. Soooo easy! And, being there with older teenagers and kids in their early 20's, allowed them to venture off to eat on their own schedules. It was a win! When travelling, you often have only 1 car for your group. Having a restaurant close by allowed everyone to eat on their own schedule if they chose. The location is also a short distance to a grocery store and a pharmacy. This too was a plus. We were able to stock the house with some meal prep which made mornings easier. And, close by were an abundance of other restaurants which was fantastic. As for the beach....AMAZING. We are familiar with other parts of Florida, but Deerfield was a new destination for us. It was a great beach and boardwalk area!!!! Beautiful white sands with so many restaurants and shops right there. No need to pack anything. If you got hungry while at the beach, you could walk 20 steps and grab a sandwich, pizza or ice cream. Or take a break and sit down for a meal! We can't wait to go back!! ##### Nicol G.

Quiet residential area and only 7 minutes to the beach (Deerfield Beach) and near plenty of shopping. Very private with garden and fences around property. Couldn’t see any neighbors. Pool was fantastic – heated, clean and continually checked by owners. Kitchen is well stocked with gadgets and appliances; large gas barbecue was available. Easy to do laundry and even had a clothesline for bathing suits, etc. Living room is nice place to hang. Loved the screened in back patio (with table and chairs for eating) and casual front patio. 3 bathrooms were fine with hot water always available for showering. Bedrooms were comfortable, especially the master bedroom. There is a bedroom attached to the master bedroom which is not as private but it worked just fine for visitor. One bedroom is a little small but ok. Very clean property. Plenty of clean, new towels. The hostesses, April and Stephan were very accommodating; always willing to help or supply something needed as laundry detergent; very respectful of our privacy. Deerfield Beach is lovely with lifeguards, plenty of public bathrooms, boardwalk, restaurants by the beach, and shady spots on grass to sit, besides the beach. Mermaid Rental provides lots of beach chairs of various heights to use at the beach. Super! ##### Frances G.

The house is extremely well stocked. Love all the labels so you can find things, know what turns on what, etc. Super helpful. If you are family, little kids, even big kids this is the perfect house. Screened in patio was our favorite, such a nice amenity. Pool was really nice too, my daughter never got out. Super comfy lounge chairs, all the pool toys! Quiet and safe neighborhood, easy to get to the grocery store. The beach is a quick drive and it's a nice beach! ##### Bernadette A.

The house was stocked with everything you could want or need. All the beds were comfortable and clean. The hosts were amazing. We had 12 guests. Eight adults and 4 toddlers. They had such a blast in the pool and playing with all the pool toys. When we went to the beach we took along all the sand toys. I highly recommend this place. The hosts truly cared about making sure we were comfortable. Upon arrival we were shocked to see beside cribs there was also a pack in play and two high chairs. I hope to go back again!!’ ##### Douglas H.

Wonderful south Florida beach charm home. Great location close to shopping and close to beach. Amazing backyard patio and pool area which is where we spent most of our time. Loved the screened in porch which was perfect for meal time. Owners live close by and are super responsive and helpful. Asked about blowing up some pool toys and they were very quickly able to assist and blow them up for us. Pool kept clean and at a perfect temp. House was super clean and well stocked with anything you might need. If visiting this area I highly recommend this home and the owners!!! Great people and great place! ##### Sara M.

This is a nice property with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Well stocked for cooking and enjoying the water (both in the back yard and the beach that is only a few minutes away). We enjoyed our time around the pool and the home was very welcoming. If traveling to this area again we would certainly book here again. The host went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and even made sure we we got home safe. Very classy. ##### John W.
