Summary: Recently stayed in Mermaid Manor. The pictures online dont do the property justice. View are excellent, property well stocked with fluffy clean towels, spices, dishes, etc. New kitchen, new beautiful countertops & flooring. Everything needed for a great day on the beach, towels, chairs, snorkel items....even a wagon to haul it all around:)Tide pools....our 5 YO Grandson loved exploring. Everything was perfect. Could have easily stayed a extra week or 3 :) Thank you for your wonderful hospitality.
