Experience

Overall it was a decent experience. The owner(s) was amazing and had very quick reaponse times!! Only issues were that the beds were ungodly uncomfortable and were spring mattress so any little move you made squaked and was so loud. Most of us barely got much sleep. Also 90% of the cabinet/drawers had there handles falling off. Other then that it was a decent place for the price we payed and hopefully they can get those couple things fixed because we would love to come again

Nice location

Perfect spot for the Amelia Island Concours. Easy access to the shows and the rest of the island. Very close to the beach as well. Extremely high priced but almost normal for that weekend. Worked for us.

Great location!

This condo was located 2 minutes from the beach and was stocked with everything we needed (except perhaps a rain umbrella which we didn’t expect to need). Amelia Island is a wonderful place to visit and the town was incredibly charming.

Christmas Getaway

My family wanted a place close to the beach and family friendly. The Mermaids Den was a perfect spot. It was either a quick walk or drive to the beach. The managers were very efficient and quick to respond to messages.

Our group have stayed at this complex on several occasions for the Georgia/florida football game weekend. This was our first visit to the Mermaid Den. The property was clean and comfortable, however could use some updates. The complex that the Mermaid Den is located is run by an HOA, and the HOA Needs to clean up exterior around the entryways spiderweb/cobwebs all around stairs and ceilings and doors.

Great getaway

We were very happy to find a clean condo. Comfortable bed. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach. The local restaurants were close by. We enjoyed the bike trails. Our favorite was Fort Clinch. So much to do and super location, close to everything. We would stay again.

Nice vacation

We enjoyed our stay. We had a minor issue with the televisions, but the property manager responded immediately and was able to fix the situation very quickly. We would stay at this property again. The only recommendation we would make is the vacuum that was provided was broken, it wasn’t a big deal because it wasn’t even advertised in the listing, but coming from the beach every day it would’ve been easier to keep up on the cleanliness throughout our stay if we had a working vacuum. Overall though nice property, exactly as listed, pleasant experience with property management and wonderful location.

Great spot for a family beach vacation

Our family of five really enjoyed our stay here! We initially didn’t rent a car and quickly realized we’d need one to get to downtown (so cute) and other spots on the island. The lack of walkability was more than made up for by the beach access. The rental is a short walk from the most beautiful uncrowded beach. Since there was no parking for the beach access closest to this rental, only folks that live in the area were on the beach. It made for a private beach feel that we loved! The rental was clean and spacious, and had everything we needed!

Great location. Older condo

Great location. A short walk to the beach which is exactly what we wanted.the condo is older with some good updates. The king sized bed in the master had a weird crinkly mattress that was noisy to turn over in bed or getting in and out of bed. We could hear the people in the next condo walking but it was mostly a quiet place.TVs in all the rooms. Wi fi a bit slow. Overall clean and enjoyable.

There was a woman walking around harassing the guest for simple things such as shoes being left by the door. Wet, sandy shoes that she said could cause a $1000 fine! We sat our trash out while cleaning and it was storming. It wasn’t out there 5 minutes and she was knocking on the door telling us we had to take it immediately. This was our third year there and never experienced this before. I feel like she was watching g our every move! Including taking pics of cars.
