Tough to corral small children safely in the upstairs portion of the house. Loved the location.

The location was wonderful. Our constructive feedback is about a couple of issues we had. The living room furnishings are more decorative than comfy.

The house was perfect with a great view. Well stocked kitchen and the air worked great. My only negative about the property was the distance from the beach access. It was farther than expected. Perhaps a map with the distance from the house would be helpful to people looking to rent the property. It was a long walk with all of our baby gear.

Nice place. Liked the upper level kitchen and deck. 400 yard walk to beach sucked and should have been noted in the property description.

Please note the steps to the beach we have listed as one of the stats for the property.

Overall the house and property were great. Only issue was access to the beach. The public access and boardwalk were far when we were just right across.

Beautiful property BUT 2 big issues. The mattresses were HORRIBLE. Reminded me of sleeping at away camp. We left a day early just so we wouldn’t have to sleep on those mattresses. In a property as nice and for the price point, they need to invest in better mattresses to attract repeat customers. I have rental property in the mountains and this is a no brainer. Also, there is no immediate beach access and you have to drive 1/2 mile to access beach. This need to be clearly listed in the listing and map posted of access points. Would not have rented if we’d known it would o be an ordeal to get to beach! With 2 kids this was not an easy feat.

Lauren B - Posted: 7/7/2020

Thank you for your feedback on the property and your stay.  To be clear the distance from the driveway of the house to the neighborhood boardwalk is exactly 0.18 miles.  However if you drive to the nearest public beach access it is 1.03 miles.  Our site reflects the steps to the beach using the boardwalk.  Also I wanted to offer that in October 2020 the mattress have been replaced based on the feedback of multiple guests.

This is our families 10th trip to Cape San Blas. We have stayed in a different house every time and Mermaid Cove is now one of our favorites. The house is absolutely beautiful and so is the view from the decks. The house was stocked with everything we needed and more. The location is great with only a short walk to the Trading Post and a short drive to the Beach store. The only question is how to access the beach. A very nice family let us use the board walk from their house to access the beach. We would definetly stay here again!

Tracy G - Posted: 7/3/2020

We're glad to hear you had such a great time and look forward to seeing you for the 11th trip.  To answer the question about beach access, the offical access for the subdivision is down the road to the north with a boardwalk specifically for the Ocean Haven subdivision.  However if you befriend another family with a closer boardwalk that allows you to use it then that works too!

No internet. No fixes. Was not addressed. We had to leave early and management did not help or address the issue at all.

Stephanie C - Posted: 6/23/2020

Interruptions in internet, cable, or phone service while very frustrating are completely outside of our control.  We have always offered the use of our office wifi or spare computer for those in need.

Spacious, beautiful modern home, and just a short walk through the dunes to one of my favorite beaches in Florida. Great location on the Cape. Highly recommend!
