Mermaid Cove: Minutes to beach

New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

Prepare to be charmed by this inviting dog- and family-friendly cottage, just a few minutes' walk from the beach, shopping, dining, and other attractions. Mini-golf, Fort Macon State Park, golf courses, and the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores are all an easy drive away.

At home, start the day with coffee on your cozy front patio, then step inside to make some breakfast in the full kitchen. Throughout the home, you'll find coastal decor and lots of space to spread out, including a fully enclosed sunroom, a living room, and a family room with a TV and comfy leather furnishings. After a day on the sand, relax at home in the central AC while you pop in a DVD or watch some free cable. Use the WiFi to upload the day's pics to social media, then host a family cookout on the gas grill. Drift off to sleep in either well-appointed bedroom - another dreamy beach day awaits tomorrow.

All reservations are offered to purchase travel insurance for an additional 7.75% of your rent and taxes. Please refer to the rental agreement you will be signing to accept or decline this coverage as your refund in the time of cancellation will be dependent on your acceptance in most situations. All guests must sign and return a rental agreement before reservations are confirmed. Payment for travel insurance, if accepted, will be processed upon receipt of this signed agreement.

Standard cancellation policy is: CANCELLATION POLICY and SUBSTITUTIONS - Any changes, including changing dates, switching of properties, or complete cancellations will invoke the cancellation policy. Agent recommends all Renters purchase travel insurance offered at time of booking to protect them in the event of an unexpected event affecting their vacation. Agent cannot offer future credits or immediate refunds for unexpected cancellations due to emergencies regardless of the situation, including but not limited to weather events and acts of God, unexpected illnesses, injury or death, changing of plans, or job loss. Please do not ask. All cancellations are subject to a fifty dollar ($50.00) cancellation fee. Cancellations must be submitted to Agent in writing (email is acceptable). In the event of cancellation, no refund of monies paid will be made unless the Property is re-rented for the same price and time period of this original vacation rental agreement. If the Property is re-rented for a lesser price or time period, the original Tenant will receive a refund for the difference between the originally agreed upon rental amount and the rebooked rental amount as Owner is entitled to receive the full amount of the original rental agreement. Agent will make every effort to re-rent the Property at the full amount. Tenant acknowledges that Agent has full discretion on negotiating rental rates in an effort to get the Property re-rented and make the Owner whole, while also attempting to get the Tenant the highest refund possible.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Relaxing

Cozy house, good location. Plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 teens and a furry companion. Around a 3 minute walk to the beach, 1 minute walk to a good seafood restaurant. Family definitely enjoyed the stay, would recommend.

Cute but could use some improvement

Cute house! The location is perfect for what I needed, and it was a great stay for two people. Be sure to look at the photos as there is no full size sofa and the bathrooms are small, no handheld shower fixtures. Parking is limited and it can be a tight squeeze getting by the car to the door, but it would help if the bushes were trimmed. Most of the place was clean, except the floors, and there were some bugs. Take slippers to wear at all times or your feet may get very dirty. The rental rate should stay lower than other rentals nearby for the aforementioned reasons. It was comfortable overall and good enough that I would rent again depending on the nightly rate.

Nice Cottage

Only draw backs are the chair in the den has worn out cushion, so it was uncomfortable. Master bed was not as comfortable for my style of matress. Other than these couple things, it was great!

Spring Break 2023

This cottage was perfect for our group for Spring Break. The lay out allowed us to have privacy between the teens and adults and the trundle bed came in handy with company one night. I loved the little enclosed court yard to sit out of the cool winds way. The walk to the beach and shopping was convenient and I would definately recommend this to anyone.

AB Beach House

Loved the location of the cute, quaint cottage, as it was close to the beach and other things in AB. It had plenty of space for just the two of us, with lots of windows to let the sun in. Check in was easy and the management staff were very responsive.
