Welcome to the Mermaid villa - Your perfect retreat!

8/10 Good

"The property was nice with great views of the ocean. We are an elderly couple and a bit disappointed that there was only one chair in the den since we do not sit well on soft sofas. That would not matter to most people. Interesting decor."

Spacious BHI Home | Ocean + Golf Views, Screened Porch, Pet Friendly, Both Clubs + Golf, 2 Carts

10/10 Excellent

"We were quite pleased with Blackbeard’s return. We had not been to bald head Island in the last six or seven years and we’re not sure what to expect. We got there and were quite satisfied. We had with us two other couples, one of which had not been to Bald Head Island, and this was the first time. The house was spacious and very homelike. It was perfect for three adult couple. This house was well located relative to the marina and the grocery store and Shoals club. It was well appointed. But most of all, was the service we received while we were there. We had some questions about how the process worked, and the owners were very quick to respond to us by text and continue to say if we needed any more help they would give it to us. We had a couple minor things we had them address, which is not unusual. We had a great time and would not hesitate to rent this property again. Kudos to all.R yes"

Bald Head Island Family Retreat with private pool, BHI & Shoals!

10/10 Excellent

"What an amazing trip! The home was very comfortable, beautifully appointed, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. At first glance, I thought it had a private pool, but it was actually a community pool shared by a few nearby homes. That turned out not to be an issue at all. The pool was just across the road, clean, spacious, and a wonderful place to relax and unwind.The home itself was very clean, although I would suggest cleaning the downstairs exterior windows so guests can better enjoy the beautiful wooded scenery. The rooms were spacious, and the king beds were incredibly comfortable after long days of boating and exploring.The sunsets were simply breathtaking! We especially enjoyed taking the golf carts, graciously provided by the owners, down to the beach each afternoon. While there were many amenities we didn’t have time to use, the home was thoughtfully stocked with everything you could need, including beach supplies.Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and we made some great memories."
