We were extremely pleased with the Mermaids Cottage. It was so cozy and had everything we needed. We loved the back yard, it was so cute and relaxing. The inside was clean and we loved all the deco inside the unit. A/C worked AMAZING!!!! AND i want to especially point out the level of care and service that was provided to us. I had sent an email to the host asking if I could ship some items to decorate the room to surprise my gf, we were celebrating our 15th anniversary and they didn’t hesitate one bit made the process extremely smooth for me and the ladies who setup everything did an amazing job. My gf loved the surprise and so did i. It was carefully put in the perfect spots and I really want to commend this property's staff for all their help. p.s. i wish i could upload pix of the unit. But its super cute.
