This property was honestly amazing. We have two small children, and proximity to the beach is huge for us because we want flexibility/ease of going back and forth from the beach, as well as the option to hang around a pool. The house had everything you’d need for the beach/pool like beach chairs, wagon, shovels, boogie board, and pool floaties. The only thing that wasn’t there was a beach umbrella, but that didn’t bother us. The house was very clean, with the exception of the shower curtains (extremely molded, luckily my kids use a bathtub so we pushed their shower curtain out of the way). And all the drains seemed a little clogged. The worst part about the house was the beds, the master bed was extremely uncomfortable (hard as a rock), and the others were only slightly better. Another note, because this property is run by a management company, they give you very little supplies (toilet paper, dish soap, etc.) for your stay.

We love AMI. This house was an easy walk to the beach. Right across the street. It’s an easier walk than a house we stayed oceanfront at bean point. Get up, go to beach, then pool, and back to beach for sunset. Get some wagons. They help to carry little ones and beach gear. It’s close enough to the beach to walk back to house if needed. Nice to have private pool. Pool area had lots of shade. It got some direct sunlight around 2PM for a couple of hours. We rented two cribs and they fit fine in the two bedrooms. House is at a good location. Not too far from anything in car or golf cart. House is on a main street for the island but it’s not busy. Beach across the street didn’t get that crowed. Only complaint would be the master bed. It’s time for an upgrade. Not too comfortable and my wife felt like it was about to collapse if you moved. Also, you could hear the people talking sometimes on the other side of the duplex inside the house. Wasn’t a big deal. We would stay at this house again.

We had a great time at this rental. Pool, Beach and repeat. Walk to the beach was really easy. The beach was not crowded. We will consider this location again.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place. The house was immaculate, the pool amazing and the proximity to the beach made our stay a wonderful experience. We’ll be back!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about Mermaid Hideaway. One of this home’s best attributes is that it is extremely close to the beach, that and the fact that it is well equipped and has a great private pool! We thank you kindly.

First night we stayed the smoke detector batteries went dead, we couldn't sleep. Had to listen to it beep till late morning the next day before it got fixed. Every thing else was excellent. Plenty towels and beach extras to take to beach. Including a wagon to carry it!!!

Thank you so much for your feedback. We do value guests safety but are so sorry that the batteries in the smoke detector decided to start chirping on your first night. We were happy to get our maintenance tech over the next morning to take care of that so you could sleep peacefully the remainder of your stay. We’re glad that you otherwise enjoyed Mermaid’s Hideaway and all the amenities if offers. We hope you visit Anna Maria Island again soon!

We had an awesome stay with 6 of us at the Mermaids Hideaway. Loved having the pool in back, everything was clean and nice. Close to the beach.
