About this property

Tipsy Mermaid | Oceanfront | Private Pool, Hot Tub | Nags Head

  • New for 2025: Top-level living room couches replaced with two couches and two chairs. Top-level king master bedroom, two mid-level king master bedrooms, and ground-level queen master bedroom have new mattresses.

    "Tipsy Mermaid" is aptly named. This fabulous oceanfront property is designed and decorated for a premier vacation experience at a great location! The elevator helps everyone get around the property to enjoy all activities. The top-level Great Room has bamboo floors, LCD TV, a separate wet bar, and deck access with a great ocean view. The kitchen is beautiful and functional with granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances (5-burner stove, 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers, oversized refrigerator, microwave). There is plenty of room for dining together at mealtime. You have two laundry areas so there are 2 washers and 2 dryers for you to use on the property. Quiet moments on the covered porch will find you watching the sunset. There is a mid-level den for watching movies or TV and the ground-level rec room is enough for a crowd. All ages will enjoy the full-size pool table, and the LCD TV for movie night, or catching the big game! Little ones had too much beach? A quiet afternoon by the pool may be just what the doctor ordered! Evenings in the hot tub can be spent relaxing while watching the kids play in the pool. You will find the deck walkway to the beach (through your own private dune top deck) helps all to enjoy the beach, or to enjoy watching the action on the beach. You have your own beautiful beach here and the view from the top-level is world-class! "Tipsy Mermaid" is centrally located for all family activities. The Nags Head multi-use path is at your driveway for exploring the area. You are just minutes from Soundside Park, offering community activities! Close to Nags Head Pier and minutes away from Jennette's Pier, Pirates' Cove Marina, and Oregon Inlet Marina. Outlet shopping, restaurants, and grocery stores are an easy drive. Take an afternoon to explore Historic Roanoke Island for artisans, museums, coffee shops, the Elizabeth II ship, Elizabethan Gardens, and home of the Lost Colony outdoor drama.

Great location

We loved this location. So close to stores and Jockey’s Ridge, yet fewer houses in area so the beach is quiet and so peaceful. The best feature of house is having so many master bedrooms. Our family of 16 was comfortable and loved our time in house hanging out and the beautiful beach ciews

Family vacation

Very nice property and it’s a great location. Many family friendly activities nearby and many bars and restaurants too. I was a little disappointed that we could not get it a half hour before check in. I’ve stayed at many other rentals and it’s never been a problem when it’s less than an hour.it seems kind of petty.

Excellent Christmas Stay

We had a last minute change in holiday plans due to our 89 year old mother not being able to travel. Was able to seamlessly book this beautiful, spacious property with amazing beach views! The house had so much that made our stay special -- a chef like kitchen full of amenities, fun game room for the teens, elevator, extra large great room and much more. They even had toys for small kids, puzzles and plenty of board games! Sat outside in the mornings /evenings on the deck watching the sunrise and sunset. Doesn't get any better! Having 7-11 and brew thru across the street was a big bonus. Programming some of the TV remotes were a challenge but we figured it out eventually. Would highly recommend and definitely book again.

Great location

Positives - great location, comfortable furniture, accurate description and beautiful house Negatives - cleaning was so so. Sand was on one of the bed sheets and in most of bedrooms. Pool was not covered and half full. We only had enough hot water to take 2 showers at a time even with 2 hot water heaters (although they did send a plumber problem was not fixed)

fantastic house and convenient location

The house came as advertised. Great location with many amenities nearby. There's a park a mile up the road if you are bringing kids and want a little time away from the beach. The kitchen was well stocked for a rental house and the stand alone ice maker on the first floor was something you don't usually have in a beach house. Beds were comfortable and the place has really been kept in good shape.

Really Nice Place to Stay.

We had a really great mini vacation with only a few issues. The floors were vacuumed well but could have used a mopping, the cook-top in the kitchen was slow to heat up and the driveway pavers needed sand to fill the voids which in some spots were very difficult to walk on. All in all, it was a nice house and we would stay there again. Thanks, R Nuckoles
