This was our second time at Mermaid Cottage! Had a wonderful week! Grandkids loved the basketball hoop in the pool!!! Great addition! Meremaid Cottage has almost everything you need! Well appointed!

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!

This was our third stay at Mermaid Cottage. Great space for our family, equipped for anything and everything we could possibly need and a perfect location close to the beach and village. We will be back!

This is the perfect place for our family - we spend a week here every year. Works great for 3 or 4 generations staying together. Short walk or ride to the beach. Has all the pots and pans we need, plenty of dishes, cups, glasses and silverware. And towels - lots of towels - including beach towels! We hope to be back next year. And each year after that...

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!

All of our flights were delayed and we had lots of rain to contend with making for a very late arrival. We had some struggle getting in but Martha & Bob were AMAZING and receptive to the lateness of the help needed. The home is spectacularly cleaned and literally not a need for anything!! We LOVED the pool and the closeness to walking to the Beach & downtown. Super responsive with any questions we had. We all fell in love with SSI!

We have been here before when my husband just had a cane. This time he was in a wheelchair. Still the same great experience. 3 bedrooms in main house and the quest house was perfect even as a stand alone. Short walk to the beach.Great fir early morning walks. Currently has construction beside it. But is was not an intrusion at all. Would highly recommend

SSI is a wonderful beach for family. The home is pleasant and comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with everything you will need for cooking family meals. There are beach chairs and beach umbrella. Pool is heated and so relaxing. Beds are comfortable and two sitting areas are great for spreading out. The separate sleeping quarters was nice for young adult children. Easy walk to the beach.

This was my second trip to the mermaid cottage and once again we had a truly relaxing time in this cute cute cottage owned by an extremely helpful host! My friends and I enjoyed the slower pace of the island and just let the days flow as they may. The Cottage itself is extremely comfortable with great beds, linens and a very nicely equipped kitchen. The vintage vibe with all the modern conveniences is a perfect combination for a wonderful getaway! When I say Martha is an amazing host I truly mean that as we locked ourselves out twice (embarrassingly in the same day) and Martha was extremely gracious in providing us access…with no judging!!
We had great BBQ from Southern Soul BBQ and a delicious crab encrusted trout followed by a shared piece of butter cake from Half Shell (be sure to chat with Walter behind the bar). Take the tram ride around Jeykell Island and go to driftwood beach. Be sure to end your day with your feet in the sand and waves just a few beautiful blocks from the Cottage.
There is no question in my mind that I will be returning for a third trip. Thanks again Martha for your wonderful hospitality!!

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!

The Mermaid Cottage was the perfect place for us to be introduced to St. Simon's Island. The neighborhood of nicely kept bungalow cottages in which it is located is reminiscent of mid-century island times. The landscaping at the cottage is very well done. When we walked into the home, we were struck by the wonderful decor. It is obvious that Martha spent a lot of time getting the details just right to be reflective of the mermaid theme. I will mention that there is one small area in the house decorated by Martha's husband that is dedicated to pirates. Have fun searching for it.
While I refer to the property as a cottage, I must point out that it is roomy. We spent most of the time in the family/TV room at the back of the house. The dining room and living room hardly got used. The modern kitchen is sizeable and has up-to-date appliances. Bedrooms were nicely sized with very comfortable beds. Bathrooms were fine and featured the best towels we have ever seen in a Vrbo property.
We particularly enjoyed the pool in the back of the house. It is heated and was a delight to lounge in following a stroll on the beach.
The Mermaid Cottage also has a guest house beside the pool. While we did not use it, we were impressed with its spacious main room and en suite bathroom. It would add a lot of flexibility to room assignment planning.
So, our overall impression of the property - absolutely wonderful!!

The property location is in a great location.
The cabins layout allowed for family dinner and game night. Having the pool room was great for allowing family to have their own space.

We had a great stay. The house is just wonderful and so was our host. St. Simons is a beautiful place. There are things to do or you can just relax. A day trip to Jekyll Island is worth the time. Thanks for the great mini vacation. We will return to the Mermaid Cottage. Sincerely, Sylvia

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.

Love the Mermaid Cottage
This is our 4th year in a row staying at the Mermaid Cottage. I highly recommend staying here if you have young kids or elderly, because it is one level and you don’t have to worry about steps. My favorite part of the house is the heated pool and outdoor shower!!

Great Beach Cottage!
The location was off a quiet street directly behind the elementary school, which was perfect. We were able to walk to the beach using the sidewalk thru the school. We enjoyed the lush landscaping and all the house had to offer (pool, grill, ping pong table, etc). We spent our days between the pool and the beach. The house is a short walk to the village as well, rent a golf cart and never drive anywhere once you reach the island. Martha was a great host and we would surely stay again!

A great place!!
Mermaid cottage was very clean with plenty of supplies, including towels and paper products for kitchen and bathroom.
Owner has it decorated and feels very beachy. The kids had a great time at the beach then enjoyed coming back to play at the pool. We loved the outdoor shower. Plenty of room for a large group. We would definately go there again.

Best vacation home ever!
It’s true, the pictures do not do this place justice! We have rented many vacation homes over the years, and this one ranks top on our list. It is beautiful, clean, extremely well stocked (even better than our own home!) and comfortable for the whole family. The pool is much larger than it shows and having it heated was simply amazing! The walk to the beach everyday was a breeze, short and easy, & our kids loved riding in the beach wagon. Martha was a pleasure to work with, so sweet and attentive to everything. We absolutely fell in love with the south and even more so; with the mermaid cottage! We can’t wait to return.

Great "cottage"
Don't let the name fool you. The Mermaid Cottage offers plenty of room and amenities. It offers a fully stocked kitchen, a huge supply of beach towels, numerous beach chairs and a heated pool.
Martha was quick to respond to any issue or question. You'll enjoy sitting on the front porch with your morning coffee!
