Great home, location and host

We loved the location of this house. Very convenient to a ton of shops and restaurants, not to mention the beach. The pool and hot tub were a huge bonus. The deck off the master suite was also heaven especially in the mornings. The kids loved having a hang out room seperate from the rest of the house. We had one small issue and Stefan was extremely responsive and helpful in getting it resolved. Definitely would recommend.

Best Leisure vacation ever.

"We had an amazing vacation with family and friends at this beachfront property in Atlantic Beach, NC. Our group of 8 adults and 8 kids (aged 4-12) had a wonderful time. The property is perfectly located right on the beach, offering breathtaking ocean views. The hot tub was a highlight, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Host Stefan was exceptional, ensuring our stay was comfortable and hassle-free. He even arranged for someone to check on comforters on Christmas Eve and followed up to ensure everything was in order. We can’t wait to return in the summer!"

Wonderful Beach Getaway

We had a great time at the Mermaid. Right on the beach with its own private pool. Only minutes to restaurants and seconds from the beach. Beautiful upper and lower covered decks with very comfortable outdoor furniture. Morning coffee on the upper deck started every morning on beach time. Stefan was great to work with and very responsive. It was an amazing stay.

Perfect!

This was the perfect house for our family and our friends family! We had 4 adults and 9 children all under the age of 9. It was clean, had everything we needed to make meals, and it had plenty of room for both sets of parents to have their own rooms and the kids not to be squished. The kids loved the pool and arcade games. It was a very easy walk onto the beach and the outdoor shower made it easy to get all the sand off the kids and their suits. 10 out of 10!

Fantastic location and host!

With many beach houses and ski houses as a basis of comparison, we couldn’t have been more pleased with our host, Stefan. And while many so-called beachfront homes require a very long walk to the dunes, then over it, then a long trek to the surf, this wasn’t the case here. My 80+ yo parents (not so steady on their feet), came down to the beach every day, instead of one walk, one day, as they did in Duck last year. The kids really enjoyed the cool family room in the basement, with its massive tv, video games, and cabana bar. Finally, I can’t praise enough the upstairs porch, cozy deck furniture, and its fantastic view of the fore mentioned not-so-far-away surf. Great for a rainy day. Finished a good novel up there. Enjoy!

Mermaid house right on the beach

My family and I really enjoyed our time here at this bnb. There was about 12 of us and we all slept comfortably ate breakfast while taking in the amazing views! And walked seconds to the the water when we didnt spend time at the beach the house provided alot to do together as a family being that we came together from 3 different states and this was only a weekend getaway. we totally plan on booking again this house keeps the family occupied but also provides all the leisures of downtime without ever leaving the comfort of this bnb. Thank yo so much I would love to stay again on our next vacation to the beach.

About the host

Hosted by Stefan M Krompier

Host profile image
My wife Diana and I renovated this ocean front home with a pool and hot tub. We both work in education and run a small business. Along with our sons Stefan and Ryan we vacationed at this home prior to our purchase. During our stay we fell in love with the home and agreed that there is no place we would rather be.

Why they chose this property

We had vacationed many times near the ocean but after vacationing in an ocean front home with a pool and hot tub in Atlantic Beach we new this was the only place we wanted to be. The home's exquisite and nostalgic cottage décor along with the convenience and beauty of being on the beach is an incredible vacation experience. From the porch you see dolphins as well as the sunrise and sunset . You can walk only a few minutes from the home to fantastic ocean front restaurants, ice cream and shopping. We love to visit the historic town Beaufort which is a very short drive from our home. My wife children and I love to fish. We are now only steps away from the beach and a few minute drive to Atlantic Beach and Morehead City charter fishing. There is so much to do in Atlantic Beach and that fact had some influence on us buying this property. The Major influence was the home itself. The incredible time we spent relaxing on the porch and enjoying all the beach had to offer was the main reason we bought this property.

What makes this property unique

OCEAN FRONT PRIVATE HEATED POOL & HOT TUB LOWER & UPER DECK----- NEW GRILL and HOT AND COLD OUTDOOR SHOWER. Private path through the dunes to the ocean.
