NO BEACH TOWELS OR BEACH GEAR PROVIDEDCONTACTLESS CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT

Located directly behind historic Officer's Row, this quiet part of Tybee is close to the Lighthouse and North Beach.
Ground level, fenced-in yard, dog-friendly, tall ceilings and extra large windows allowing tons of natural light to pour in. The home now offers 2 full baths and an additional "water closet!"
Full of art from local artists and vintage finds, comfy furniture and best of all the extra large screened porch with rocking chairs. Truly a southern charmer of a home! This home is a historic home, and the homeowner has added an additional full bath for a total of 2 1/2 baths! Yet another unique feature of our home! This is half of the duplex with Enlisted Men's Mess Hall on the other side. Both sides are quiet and have private/separate entrances. Need space for a large family? Rent both sides!
Enjoy your complimentary sample of Mermaid Morning Bliss coffee; a special perk for all Mermaid Cottages guests!

Fabulous Stay on Tybee Island

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay on Tybee Island this year was made even better by renting Screened Inn through Mermaid Cottages. The house was well appointed, very clean and fit our needs beautifully. Dealing with all the 'Mermaids' was a real treat---each one was kind, polite and extremely helpful. We hope to stay there again next year!

Awesome stay at Screened Inn Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Thank you so much for a wonderful month long stay at your beautiful cottage. We were impressed by the service of the Mermaids and the perfect location of the cottage. We loved walking through the “secret passage “ to the beach each day. We loved watching the summer storms from the front porch. Great linens, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and furnishings and a super outdoor shower. We hope to come back next summer.

Family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was our family's first time visiting Tybee and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. We were celebrating the adoption of our two youngest daughters and it was the perfect place to do it. The house cottage was adorable and brought back so many memories of my Grandmother's home. The location is great with the private walkway to the beach. The trip was exactly what we hoped for a relaxing time spent making new memories with our family. We can't wait to come back.

Our Favorite Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We just finished our sixth vacation at Screened Inn. Since our first visit, this is our preferred vacation getaway. It's a cute property on the north side of the island, which we prefer because it is quiet and peaceful, but only a few minutes' walk to the North beach. It is always spotless. And it is very spacious. The interior is exactly like the pictures in the listing. Really cute. The Mermaids are friendly, accommodating and responsive. We are already planning to be back sometime in November-December and again in March.

charming and relaxing

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great property. The rooms were all much bigger than they looked in the pictures. The screen porch and small fenced-in yard are wonderful. Lots of shade from old live oaks. VERY convenient to trail around nearby Jaycee Park and easy access to the beach. The floor pan and room locations are a *little* quirky but actually worked very well for us (we were there with our two small children, and, alternately, my wife's parents and a friend with her child). Lighthouse and the very tasty North Beach Bar & Grill were within easy walking distance. Nice, quiet neighborhood and street. Also, the staff at Mermaid Cottages were very friendly and helpful. We loved Tybee and hope to return next summer!

The Perfect Getaway!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All I can say is: WOW. Not only did this place feel like a home away from home but mermaid rentals went above and beyond in their communications- they are incredibly friendly, warm and inviting which is so welcoming after a big day of travelling. The rental was spectacular, cozy, bright and FULL of character, the decorating really made it feel like a relaxed vacation and the walk to the beach was very short. I could truly go on and on about our incredible experience here, but I’ll leave it at saying it’s the type of place and experience you’ll tell people about, you’ll have wonderful memories and you’ll be just waiting to book the next time around. Thank you to Mermaid Cottages for truly making this rental a phenomenal experience. We’ll be back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at Screened Inn during our last seven consecutive visits to Tybee Island, and we plan to stay there again soon. Screened Inn is located on the North end of the island, very close to the beach and the lighthouse. It's a very quiet location, and convenient to everywhere on Tybee Island. The Inn is always spotlessly clean, and the Mermaids are so responsive and helpful. We just love it...

We have stayed in multiple cottages over the course of seventeen years. The historic charm and location are unmatched. We love to take full advantage of Ft. Screven and enjoy walking, biking, and Pickleball. Beach access is quick and easy. This cottage feels like our home away from home. We look forward to returning often😊

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been coming to this charming cottage (both this side and Mess Hall) for our annual girls trip for four years. We adore it! Every time we see something we hadn’t noticed before. Lots of thought has gone into the furnishings. Tammy has always been amazing! She always makes us feel special. She quickly answers our questions and helps us out. The cottage is within a short walk five minute to North Beach. It’s always spotless. We love sitting on the front porch and relaxing before and after a day at the beach. Truly a magical home away from home! We have our reservations for next year and can’t wait to return.

This is our third or fourth trip to Tybee and working with the Mermaids and will not change.
