Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I had a relaxing week staying at this lovely cottage on Tybee Island. The home was comfortable and clean, with attractive furnishings. We enjoyed the short walk to the ocean with beautiful views. We visited nearby Savanah and the many interesting sites and restaurants in this historic city. The home does have a small apartment connected to it, but the residents are quiet. This beach community offers a pleasant atmosphere, and the local sushi restaurant is top notch.

Fall 2023 Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the layout and roominess of the house plus it was so close to beach, pier, and downtown stores. Lot of parking area for famiky and friends. House felt secluded due to high fence in front yard. We have rented via Mermaid Cottages for past three Fall 7 weeks vacations, and they have provided excellent service. I have SEVERE respiratory allergies and Mermaid Cottages works with my issues to cleaning products and pesticides. They always call to check on us during our stay. I HIGHLY recommend Mermaid Cottages for your Tybee Island vacation rental!

Close enough to park your car and walk to the beach, stores, restaurants. Catch a sunset-you won’t be disappointed! Thanks for the coffee, Mermaids! We made a trip to SeaSide Sisters to buy more!😊Tammie was sweet to give us a call. We were very happy with the Mermaids and you will be,too.
