Perfect! 5 star experience!

Hot water heater was not functioning properly the first week and had to heat water on stove for the babies to take a warm bath. We reported it the first week, but took until the 2nd week to repair. They ended up replacing the tankless water heater. The heated pool was to cold to swim in, while everyone around us were using their pool. Maintenance finally regulated the water and we were able to use the pool the second week. I do expect a full security deposit and possibly some compensation for our troubles. Sincerely, Paula Reagan

The house was gorgeous! Love the pool, very private. Great location, not too busy but easy bike or drive to city pier. Easy, quick walk to the beach. Quick response from property managers when needed. Would definitely stay here again!

Our stay was mostly very enjoyable. There were a few issues that we had with the property such as the shower liner had a few mold spots on it, the sliders to the pool area had an alarm on it (for children) and I wish there was a way we could have turned it off since it was just my husband and I and we don't have children. It made it quite annoying to go in and out of the pool area. Also, the slider to the pool area was quite heavy and it was hard to pull it open and push it shut, especially when you had that pesky alarm on the top that if you didn't shut it in time the alarm would start ringing. The master room was very lovely other than the VERY uncomfortable mattress and the french doors aren't properly sealed (you can see sunlight coming in towards the ground) so that was definitely the hottest room in the house no matter how cold we put the air at. The location of the property was AMAZING. You walked down the road and there was beach. The pool was extremely enjoyable to be around (this and the beach were the best part of our vacation). There was a mosquito issue around the pool, I am not sure if this was just because of the area or if people in surrounding houses have standing water but I didn't get bite up by mosquito's out there. The pool area also smelled like dog pee at times, it wasn't constant but you would get a whiff of it every now and then. The kitchen and living room were really nice and comfortable. The only complaint with the kitchen was that the ice machine was completely frozen into one block of ice which made it unusable. This wasn't a huge deal as we just went and bought a bag of ice, but I thought it would be worth noting. Again, we really enjoyed our vacation, but we felt if it wasn't for these few pain points it could have been better. I don't regret renting this place for the week, but I don't know if we would stay in this exact location again.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place. The house was immaculate, the pool amazing and the proximity to the beach made our stay a wonderful experience. We’ll be back!

We asked for a same day weekly rental and they were able to fit us in, along with an early check-in. The property was just as gorgeous as the photos. The barbecue was in pristine shape - we used it almost every day, and there's a great story about that. The first night, we found it was out of gas so we left a voicemail that night. The next morning, not only was there a new installed tank when we woke up, but they also replaced the wire brush with a new one. Talk about service! The pool was a great bonus, and we used that almost every day, also. The Gulf-side beach was less than a 4 minute walk away. The great property, great location, great amenities, and fantastic property management made for one of the best vacations we ever had. Thank you, Tea and Anna Maria Island Accommodations!

I loved the location for sure. I found the furniture and the bedding to be very dingy. Especially the bed skirts. There was only a filthy mop to clean floors with so I asked, and they brought a sponge mop. I could not get the floors clean and we mopped 3xs a day. I had to wash my feet every night before I got into bed. The light fixture in kitchen was very dusty. The ice maker had issues and water dispenser never worked. I did complain about that. Otherwise we loved our stay. For the price, I would not stay at that property again

Great stay at Mermaid's Hideaway. Only 1/2 block to beach and beautiful pool in private fenced backyard. House was clean, neat and very nice. Liked the big screen TV in living room and DVR feature. Plenty of towels provided for pool and daily use. Only complaint was turntable in kitchen microwave did not work, resulting in uneven heating. Would definitely recommend this house to others. Quick response from property manager when I called about need for pool to be cleaned.

My wife and I stayed here for 9 nights while waiting for our house to finish being built We loved this cottage. Quick walk to a beautiful beach

This house is absolutely gorgeous and in the perfect location with a pool. You couldn't ask for anything more perfect then this place. The home provided dishes, silverware, linens, and beach towels. There was also beach equipment such as beach chairs, boogie boards, floaties and shovels to use at the beach. The beach is right across the road so it is about a 2 minute walk straight from the house. We love this property and will continue to rent it!

First night we stayed the smoke detector batteries went dead, we couldn't sleep. Had to listen to it beep till late morning the next day before it got fixed. Every thing else was excellent. Plenty towels and beach extras to take to beach. Including a wagon to carry it!!!

We had an awesome stay with 6 of us at the Mermaids Hideaway. Loved having the pool in back, everything was clean and nice. Close to the beach.

This was a great rental and had everything we needed! Nice cozy villa, beautiful pool & short walk to the beach. We were very surprised to find beach chairs, a wagon & toys included at Mermaid’s Hideaway.

We found the property very clean and well maintained. It had everything we needed from beach towels to beach chairs, pool toys, and equipment. The location cannot be beat, it is a less than 2 minute walk across Gulf drive to the white sand beneath your feet. The rental company was very accommodating with an early check-in and even refunded us for exchanging the grill propane tank. Come relax and enjoy Mermaid's Hideaway - we will definitely stay again next year!

Great location to walk to the beach (<2mins). Awesome backyard oasis. Plenty of shade throughout the day. Perfect house for family with kids. FYI there is a large stash of beach gear there, so you can pack lighter than we did. Only a few minor complaints: couldn't get the ceiling fan in the living room to work, and the pool pump was VERY loud.

Stay was only 4 stars because the weather didn’t cooperate. The house , property and location were all 5 star !
