  • Mermaid Tales

    Weekly & Monthly Discounts Available!

    Welcome to Mermaid Tales, a privately owned beach home just steps from the ocean in beautiful Garden City Beach, Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.

    Perfect for families, couples traveling together, and groups of friends, this spacious three-level townhouse combines the comfort of a private home with an unbeatable coastal location. Set in a small oceanfront grouping of private beach homes, Mermaid Tales is the second townhouse from the beach, giving you easy access to the sand, beautiful ocean views, and a peaceful setting away from crowded resort areas.

    The home features three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, an oversized two-car garage, and two large balconies with ocean views. The bright, open kitchen connects to comfortable living and dining areas, making it easy to prepare meals, gather together, and enjoy quality time after a day at the beach. With ocean views throughout, Mermaid Tales gives you plenty of opportunities to relax and reconnect without sacrificing space or convenience.

    Start your morning with beautiful ocean views from the king-size bed in the Sunrise bedroom, or enjoy coffee on the balcony while listening to the waves. After a day in the sun, rinse off, settle into the comfortable living area, and dine outdoors as the coastal breeze rolls in.

    Comfortable furnishings and locally inspired artwork create a welcoming nautical and coastal atmosphere that feels relaxed, personal, and distinctly beachside.

    Steps from the Beach & Garden City Pier

    The sandy beach is just steps away, so you can easily head out for a morning walk, return for lunch, and go back to the water without packing up the car. This convenient location is especially appealing for families with children, beach lovers, and guests who want to spend more time enjoying the coast and less time driving.

    Walk along the beach to the Garden City Pier, where you’ll find fishing, an arcade, food, drinks, and seasonal live entertainment. Nearby, Garden City Beach offers the charm of a classic small beach town, with local restaurants, cafés, beach shops, bars, and live music close to home.

Such a lovely townhome! Very clean, walk right to the beach! Balconies from living room and master bedroom upstairs have great view of ocean. Garage space for both cars and plenty of room for the golf cart rentals too. Love the location so close to the pier to walk and get some drinks and watch the ocean. Close to our favorite restaurants in Murrell’s Inlet (very short car ride) and golf cart rides to everywhere else. Love this place and highly recommend. Would definitely stay here again.

Family Celebration

We enjoyed the house and location very much. It was the perfect space for 4 adults and a dog. The only draw back was the heavy cigar and pot smoke from the neighbor renting next door. We had to keep the windows and sliding doors closed much of our stay.

Relaxing beach get-away

We feel very at home here. The kitchen is well stocked and bedrooms are comfortable. On the cold days, we enjoyed the peaceful view from the living room windows. Warren is very responsive and a super host. The way this condo is decorated and maintained reflects his attention to making sure it is clean and a very pleasant and restful place to stay.

Beautiful Beach Home

We stayed here to celebrate our 40th anniversary, and it was a fabulous time! The whole house is beautifully decorated in beachy colors and decor, very neat and clean, beautiful views of the ocean from every room, and you walk out & you’re on the beach. Two balconies with ocean views guaranteed that we were up to watch the sunrise, sitting out on the balcony with cups of coffee. It was a wonderful and memorable way to celebrate.

Great Location

The townhouse was clean, comfortable, and spacious for our group (two couples plus 1 adult). The location was great - just steps away from the beach and wonderful views of the sunrise. The beds are very firm. We slept fine though. I just wish it was softer. Also there’s not many beach chairs available - bring a couple of your own. Owner was very responsive and easy to deal with. Id stay here again for sure.
