Nice place, close to the beach.

Perfect Stay
My two kids and I stayed at The Salty Mermaid Cottage for 3 nights and it was absolutely perfect. The cottage was clean, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we could need - from snacks, coffee and tea, towels, to beach chairs and a wagon. Oh, and even toothbrushes and toothpaste for each guest! Just in case we forgot. We felt so welcome and taken care of. The home itself is very well located. Just a few minutes' walk from the beach in a quiet neighborhood. The host is available to help with any questions through the app and helped us with a couple of things throughout our stay, communicating with us very quickly. I hope that the next time we are planning a trip to this part of Florida, The Salty Mermaid will be available for us to stay at! We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. Thank you again Penny for a memorable stay!
