We arrived after office hours and had a hard time with the lock box (our fault). I texted office staff and she immediately replied. She arrived within 10 minutes and let us in. Very gracious young lady!

Nice place to stay at the beach
Very cute place to stay for a couples getaway. The location is perfect. It’s just steps from the back patio to the beach and the outdoor area with seating was perfect. Our only complaint is the shower pressure is very weak and the water smells. Overall it was a great place to stay.

Cool place, we had a great stay! Oceanfront vacation at its best! Clean, comfortable and convenient to dining, the beach, shopping. We also rented a super cool golf cart to zip around town, as well as drives on the beach. And...perhaps best of all...I caught my first Redfish! A 30" big boy! Thanks Salty Mermaid, we'll see you again sooooooon.

Salty but sweet
Pros- Room size, comfortable beds, oceanfront, walkable to restaurants & shops, great setup with chaise loungers & umbrellas facing ocean, super nice host Cons- bathroom door should NOT have slats (it needs to be a solid door…privacy pls), sitting chairs right outside glass doors but no privacy-can see all other guests right there too (need dividers of some sort), grassy area by chaise loungers is full of stickers- they need to turf this area

Very unique property that was close to everything. So nice to be able to see the ocean from our room. The restaurants and shopping on Flagler was just around the corner. Stayed in Room 1 with a large walk in shower and air conditioning unit in the window.
