    Wayne G from Tulsa, Oklahoma recommends this vacation rental

    For a last minute reservation, everything was great. If only the bungalow backed up to the beach, it would have been perfect, but absolutely great anyway!

    • Manager Responded on 4/9/2013

      So glad you had a great stay at Beach Boys Bungalow! Although it doesn't back up to the beach, the beach is just across the street! We do have other cottages closer to the beach and right on the beach so let us know your preference on your next visit and our reservationists will be happy to help you select the perfect place! We hope you will plan a return visit to Tybee Island and Mermaid Cottages very soon! ~The Mermaids of Tybee Island

    The "Beach Boys Bungalow" was the second cottage I've rented from Mermaid Cottages on Tybee Island in the past year. Once again, the funky Tybee charm and hospitality both come through in a most enjoyable way. Affordable, clean, fun, and highly recommended!

    a guest from N.Augusta, SC recommends this vacation rental

    We had a wonderful time in the cottage. It was so close to the beach and convenient to the restaurants we enjoy. There are 2 issues with this cottage. First, the master bath shower does not drain properly...we had to sweep the water down the drain in the shower after every use, which was sort of gross. Anyway, the next issue was the staircase leading up to the back cottage. They were very steep and hard to climb, especially for small children. Once these are redone, it will be great! We loved the studio cottage once we got up there. It was very comfortable.

    All the bedding was very comfortable and the house was nicely decorated. There was plenty of seating for dining and a great little cubicle for the children to eat in the kitchen.

    We had a great time!!

    • Manager Responded on 8/15/2012

      Thank you for your review! We are so happy that you had a great time at Beach Boys Bungalow! We wanted to let you know that there is now a new staircase for the back apartment! It is much, much better and safer than before! And, we are passing along the shower drain issue you reported to the owner for resolution. We appreicate feedback such as yours as this is what allows us to continue to offer the very best beach vacation possible for our guests! We look forward to booking your next visit to Tybee Island and mermaid Cottages! ~The Mermaids of Tybee Island

    Beverley G from Watkinsville, GA recommends this vacation rental

    This bungalow was absolutely perfect! It's very clean, comfortable, nicely decorated, great amenities, & only a hop & a skip from the beach. My family & I had a marvelous time, just wish we could have stayed longer. We'll be back & I have told all my friends about Mermaid Cottages. Thanks to the entire staff - Diane, Jan, Michelle, Bill - just to name a few. Everyone was extremely nice, accommodating, & easy to talk with.
