You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

October is the best month for the Gulf!

Mermaids N' Mimosas is found on Hwy 180 headed towards the Fort and Tacky Jacks. Once considered a fish camp and now a small piece of luxury on the peninsula island many have come to know and love.

Our beach cottage is a 3 Bedroom / 2 Bath home sitting on a very private 1/2 acre of land. Just one street away from being ocean front. Relax on the front porch, feel the constant breeze and enjoy your view of Mobile Bay. Relax on the full sized back deck off of the kitchen and enjoy the beauty of the Gulf of Mexico.

We purchased and brought this property back to life in the summer of 2023. It was originally built in 1983 by the first owners and used as a personal vacation home and never rented. We are the second owners and fully renovated the property, bringing a breath of fresh air back into the home. Every room has been completely redone with all new furnishings and appliances on the inside and brand new decks front and rear on the outside.

Our home is taken care of by a dedicated team of individuals that are local to the area and will take care of just like you were family.

Please enjoy the pictures and call with any inquiries that you may have.
We hope to be chosen as your next vacation destination.


Golf cart is NOT included with the property! A golf cart is available on the property for a charge of $400/week. Golf cart rentals are also available through a local company called island carts golf cart rentals!
