We loved staying here!! The location was great and it wasn’t too crowded where we were. Walked right across the street to the beach and we loved the balcony beach view. Our condo had everything we needed and it was a cozy nice home away from home.

The property manager, Julie, did a great job of communicating with me. The place is clean a d has a beautiful view of the Ocean. Parking isn't cheap, but it's all fenced in, which is nice when you ride a motorcycle. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location

We had an amazing time at Mermaid Lookout! Absolutely zero complaints. The condo itself is beautiful with a great view and useful amenities. The location could not be any better in my opinion. The beach is a short 5-7 minute walk and you pass right by the pool coming and going! Close to restaurants, shopping and Walmart is right across the street. We definitely plan on returning in the future!

Loved the mermaid lookout

We had a wonderful week at the Mermaid Lookout. Location is close to everything without feeling in the middle of it all. Easy access to the beach and the pools are great. Would love to stay here again. Our daughter loved the Mermaid theme and views from the Loft bedroom. Thank you for a wonderful vacation spot.

Fantastic

It was just what we needed. The property owner was very responsive and very quick to respond any time i had a question. The views were awesome from the balcany and master and even the loft of the ocean. Walmart is right across from where you enter to park so if you need anything its right there.

Hope they can fix it

The room was beautiful with the decor and the view was just perfect but some cleaning, maintenance and a little improvement would be nice. The restroom had a horrible odor of urine in there that lingered through our stay. The toilet kept running and we had to constantly keep fixing the pump. The most unpleasant thing was the mattresses. We have not been in an old spring mattress since I can’t recall. We slept very uncomfortable the 2 nights because the mattresses. We have stayed in lots of places and I have to admit those mattresses were the worse. My husband and I both woke up with severe back aches. Like I mentioned room was beautiful but when things like the issues I had defeats all other things. I hate to say but I won’t be booking this room again unless these issues are fixed.
