Everything about Mermaid Cottage was wonderful! The property was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The pool was great and we thoroughly enjoyed spending hours outside next to it. Martha also thought of every imaginable thing a family would need for a great trip to St. Simon's Island. The kitchen was well supplied and there were plenty of towels. There were also ample beach chairs and a beach umbrella, which made packing for our trip very easy. The cottage is in a great location. Both Pier Village and the beach were within a 10 minute walk. We truly enjoyed our time staying at Mermaid Cottage and cannot say enough positive things about this location.

The Mermaid Cottage was a “home away from home” for us for a month and we hope to return. It’s a great location with an easy walk to the beach and downtown. The cottage is well equipped with quality linens, paper goods and kitchen ware. No thin towels or scratchy toilet paper! The heated pool and guest house set this property above the competition. The owner was very communicative and responded immediately to a very minor problem with the dishwasher. In four weeks that was our only issue, and it's hardly worth mentioning. This property is highly recommended!

Wonderful place

Great location for quick access to beach, shops, restaurants. The cottage has everything we could have possibly needed. Lots of room for our big family. And the detached guest house was wonderful for gram and gramps to go to have quiet time while the kiddos were still running wild lol!

Perfect SSI Vacation Spot

We spent the week with our older teens and young 20s kids and their partners. The house was very well stocked for cooking large meals and was set up perfectly for family conversations, games and fun. We loved the pool and the proximity to the beach and the village was awesome as well. Fantastic home, you can’t go wrong!

Mermaid Cottage

This property was clean, well equipped, and full of quaint charm and character. The pool was perfect for a shady swim after a day on the beach. The walk to the beach was about 7 minutes with shade cover on about half of it. A two year old walked it one day! Great place to make family memories!

Spring Break Family Trip

We had a wonderful time at Mermaid. Cottage. It met the needs of grandparents, parents, teens, and children. Plenty of room inside and the warm pool was great outside. The cottage had everything needed and was super clean. We rented a golf cart while there which transported everyone to the beach and stores. We had a fun and memorable stay!

A Great Location and Host

Martha and her staff showed great flexibility and generosity before and during our stay. The house is in a very convenient location. You can get to everything notable on SSI quick and easy. The house itself is very comfortable and was fully appointed. The Mermaid theme is also well carried out.

About the host

Host profile image

My husband and I LOVE the ocean. As our family grew,and grew, we found St. Simons to be the perfect place to take the kids. They couldn't get enough of the ocean and the biking trails. There was no question, we had to invest in our own 'St. Simons beach house.' We hope you'll enjoy all that Mermaid Cottage has to offer. You'll want to keep coming back too!
