Everything we needed
It was a nice little place to stay. The people are very friendly. It was nice to have somewhere that my dogs could go without any issue. Communication with the property manager was great as well. We will definitely stay there again.

Recovery vacation with scary caretaker
We were really looking forward to our trip as I am in cancer recovery.
The property itself is very beautiful & lush with all sorts of wildlife. The Dog Park is awesome.
The Mermaid Life cabin was clean. The air conditioner needs to be upgraded, as we were hot the whole time. BRING YOUR OWN FAN!
The other thing we encountered was a very grouchy caretaker. Maybe he was the owner; we are not sure. I had been sitting by the hot tub and was on a plank of wood. Suddenly it fell & with me on it. I banged my head & tailbone pretty hard. My boyfriend came to check on me. The caretaker was by the pool & never asked if I was ok and blamed us for messing with his ropes. He even gave us a menacing stare & said "someone's been messing with my ropes." He also, yelled at us when we arrived, saying to "get off his grass" when we werent sure where to park yet. Honestly, he was scary. I still dont know what ropes he is talking about & it gave the rest of trip a somber feeling whenever we were outside.
Everyone else we met in Rockport was very friendly, except this one guy we kept seeing again & again , at the one place we spent the most money.
most money. outside outside.

Really cute place
The cottage was clean and cute. We had everything we needed. The parking, pool, hot tub and patio were right outside our door. We felt very relaxed and were not worried about leaving things on the back of our truck. The owners are very nice and treat you like family. My grandson really enjoyed the pool which had plenty of floaties and pool toys for his enjoyment. We would definitely return.

Such a wonderful place
I cant say enough good things about staying here! Everyone we talked to was so friendly and the caretakers of the property are amazing! The pool is a nice little oasis with beautiful plants and trees. Our fur babies LOVED the dog park. (Visitors please keep a leash on your pets while walking the grounds for safety of everyones pets!) We enjoyed making new friends and we will definitely be back!!!

Cute place!
We were looking for a quick get away for our family and dogs and this place was great for us. I really liked the dog park right there so we could let them get their energy out, and the pool was right there too! Nice and quiet property.

Mermaid Paradise
Absolutely amazing stay! Super clean and well maintained property. We loved the quiet tranquil setting. 10 out of 10 would recommend! Best lil place we’ve found to stay. Cottage is quaint and PERFECT in my opinion! Gerilyn and Jason were an absolute delight! Pool was clean and very refreshing! On-site laundry facility is super convenient! Our service dog Roxy LOVED the dog park! Overall super happy with our stay! Will be back as soon as we can!
The property is not to far from Rockport Beach and a decent drive to Port Aransas. The One bedroom is right next to the pool and hot tub that where both very clean. Me and my party had a great time staying here. I highly recommend to others looking for something a little different from Corpus Christi.

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay
The home was good, the only thing was it was a little warm inside. They do have a window unit but it did not do a great job at keeping cool. When we cooked it did get hot inside. Other than that it was a comfortable stay and we would stay again, just take an extra fan. :-) Pots, pans, and utensils were provided. It had just about everything we needed.

A LITTLE GET AWAY FROM THE NORM!!
I felt as if I was on a island with all the banana trees and tropical plants. You walk in and the small quaint place is so inviting. The owner's letter on the refrigerator is very touching. I had a lovely time. Not far from the resturants. The hot tub was awesome looking at the stars at night. On a cool note above the hot tub was a banana tree bearing fruit. interesting to see.

Molly the magnificent mermaid did not disappoint. Quaint, quirky and fun oasis. Nice to have everything available at the oasis. Close to town, the beach and the pool area was nice. The bed was a nice surprise.
