House was very clean and accommodating for our large group. Plenty of bathrooms and supplies to cook as well as supplies for the beach. We took along our 2 dogs and they loved hanging out under the house:) The “Breakers” community and grounds also nice with a dock to fish and easy access to the beach. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

The fact that we FINALLY found a place to stay for my whole family that actually had enough space for us all to move around, it being close to the beach/pool/bay, AND it was within our budget was AWESOME!

Phenomenal location and perfect beach house

We rented this house for a large family get together and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The house is absolutely gorgeous, incredibly clean and the bedrooms Were good sized With nice furnishings. Having the upstairs washer and dryer was a real convenience. The multiple levels and decks were very enjoyable and it came with everything You can think of or ever needed in the kitchen as well as The grilling space downstairs. The pool is literally steps away, and the beach is at the end of the cul-de-sac, which isn’t far at all. The beach was very clean, well groomed. Liz was Very accommodating and easy to work with and made sure our stay was just as promised. Already looking forward to booking this house for our next family getaway, I would highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed with this gorgeous beach house.

Family vacation October 2019

Our family of 11 stayed for a week . We had a great time. Beautiful home with enough room for everyone. Easy access to beach. The outdoor space was great. We grilled out and had a fire in one of the fire pits. Lots of deck space around the house. Multiple tables and chairs for outside use. Enjoyed having the pool next door for easy access. We have been going to Gulf Shores for 7 years staying in condos. The house was everyone’s favorite. Quiet area. No crowds to deal with. Hope to stay here again.

Absolutely Gorgeous House !

We have rented a lot of houses in the area and this one by far was the nicest for a good price. The attached apartment was amazing for the other family that was traveling with us. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful family vacation!

We rented Mermaids Dream and the attached apartment for our family of 13. Beautiful new property! Was wonderful to have the two kitchens and two living areas. Worked out great for our 8 adults and 5 kids. Loved the beach,pool and fishing pier that was all within walking distance. Family members suggest night stands in upstairs bedrooms, hooks in bathrooms and ice makers did not seem to make much ice. Rose was very good about answering any questions we had. Made wonderful memories and hope to return next year!

Celebrating 50th anniversary at the Mermaid

For our first beach trip in years, the Mermaid was the perfect choice! We decided to celebrate our marriage of 50 years with our entire family--3 sons, 2 daughters-in-law, and 6 grandchildren, and we were thrilled with the accommodations, proximity to beach, and space below for some memorable meals together. Why go out to eat (although there are several nice places nearby--Tacky Jack's and Sassy Bass to name a few) when you have a large grill, two fire pits, and plenty of seating for even our crowd? The decor was lovely, and the kitchen facilities--a must for a large family--were roomy and very well equipped! Our grands were especially amazed at the multiplicity of large televisions! We heartily recommend a stay at the Mermaid--don't wait, though. Bookings like this one will fill quickly!

The home was exactly as described. Beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Immaculatley clean and the beach was so close we felt like we were right on it. Pool was beautiful and we finally got to use it in mid February when the weather warmed up.

Amazing House !

This house definitely is unique. This is the first time we rented a house with an attached apartment for the in laws, and we LOVED it ! The house is gorgeous, convenient to the beach, pool and bay for fishing. The furnishings are very tasteful and comfortable, the bedrooms are not all crowded up, you actually can move, and the apartment is a whole other house by itself with a full sized, fully stocked kitchen, private bedroom with Jacuzzi bath, the in laws loved being with the grandkids, but they also loved the privacy and peace and quiet of their own space. The 4 bedroom side has a wonderful kitchen, living and dining area that is open and spacious. the walk to the beach is maybe 100 yards, the pool is right next door, it has decks to take in all the views and relax or eat. There is a grilling area under the house with seating to sit and chat while enjoying the Gulf breeze and cooking. I cannot say enough good things about this home, except that we will definitely be back, hopefully sooner than later. The description by the owner doesn't do it justice !
