The Mermaids Grotto was a beautiful home perfect for our family vacation!

Interior design was spectacular! Ocean view was more of a sand dune.

Extremely clean and well equipped. Great location

The Mermaid’s Grotto is in a perfect location. Very easy access to the beach and lots of space to spread out on the beach. The decor of the house is fabulous and the communication with the owner was easy and quick. We would definitely recommend this beach house to family and friends and hope to return.

This property is stunning. We especially loved the spacious living area, large kitchen island, master suite on the upper floor with private balcony & coffee bar, and outdoor shower. In addition, communication with the owner was superb. We continued to notice so many thoughtful details throughout our stay which made us feel exceptionally welcomed and informed.

Family get away with our 2 childern, our Daughter inlaw, my wife's mother, and 4 grandkids. The trip for my wife and I was about time with the grandkids. Plan accomplished. This home is right on the beach, we had plenty of space for all of us. The owner was great with information and following up on questions. I would recommend this owner and home. Great place and location.

This house was fantastic and Nadine, the owner, was a wonderful host who was easy to communicate with when we had questions leading up to the trip! She even left flowers and an anniversary card for my husband and I who were celebrating our 10th anniversary. The pictures of this rental hold up in person. It was a beautiful home and location! I loved Nags Head as a destination as well. You are basically in the middle of the outer banks so day trips up to places like Corolla, Duck, Rodanthe, etc are easy jaunts. The area where the house is located felt peaceful and our beach was great for the family - not overly crowded or busy. Yet, where we were was fast and easy access to shops/shopping. A fantastic trip, a wonderful home, we would absolutely stay here again! A few things I’ll note for people who are considering this home because these are things I would find helpful to know or have pointed out to me: If you are in an electric vehicle (one family member has a Tesla) there are supercharging stations within 15-20 minutes of the house. Reminder this home has 2 full bathrooms (one for the rooms downstairs and one for the main suite upstairs). Wasn’t an issue for our crew but I think important to note if you are bringing multiple guests. Note to either bring your own linens or rent them since this is not included. We did a combination of both. The kitchen was well appointed and has a gas stove. It was easy to use. The grill outside is charcoal only.

It was like a private writing retreat to reenergize and reconnect w old friends. It was exactly what I hoped for. I could stay forever perched on the upper balcony and ask for nothing more.
