Close to the Beach, no car needed, mini golf, bikes, & a King Size Bed! mcB

Did you say white quartz sandy beaches and stunning multicolored sunsets? Yes…and only a block and a half away from your front door when you stay at Mermaids Cove.

This beach themed bungalow is located in the hub of Indian Rocks Beach. Within walking distance to everything you need and steps to the Gulf of Mexico Beach. This relaxing retreat is one of only two units available (convenient if you want to bring more friends or family). It was newly remodeled in Spring 2019 with new furniture and stocked with all the comforts of home. Plus a NEW 3 hole mini golf putting green was just installed for our 2022 guests!!!

Featuring a full kitchen, living room, and two bedrooms that include a KING size and queen size bed. The kitchen was renovated with new white cabinets, granite counter tops, a large kitchen sink, and new appliances.

This piece of paradise has a private tropical backyard so you can enjoy sipping on your morning coffee, or snacking on some local take out while sitting at your own outside patio table. Also enjoy the front yard area while sitting on oversized lounge chairs or relaxing in the hammock.

BONUS…NO CAR NEEDED
Just steps to white sandy beaches and less than 2 blocks to Gulf Boulevard…You are in the main hub of it all; Restaurants, Beach Access, Music, Parks, Pubs, Groceries, Shopping, Yoga, Ice Cream, and More.

Amazing Beach Access, Beautiful Property
Had a wonderful time during our Thanksgiving trip! The property was perfect to enjoy our visit and time with friends. We were able to walk to so many local food places and the beach is literally right across the street! They also put in a putting green that was totally fun! Thank you for an amazing stay!

A wonderful Beach getaway
Loved staying in this cute cottage for a few days! Walking distance to beach, restaurants and ice cream! It is away from the tourist craziness but only a short drive to get to Clearwater Pier 60 if you want to be in the middle of the action. House is clean and has everything you need for the beach. The owner was very helpful and available if needed. I would definitely stay here again!

Mermaids Cove at Indian Rocks Beach
The location was easy to find, and was within a short walking distance to the beach and the shops up the street. The house itself was clean and comfy. We also liked the turf that was outside in the courtyard area, so that we could walk outside barefoot and relax on the patio furniture. The host contacted us before and after our arrival to see if we had any questions or requests, and we really appreciated that. Besides going to the beach, there were plenty of restaurants and side trips that nearby to visit. We will definitely visit again!

Impressed
We rented both units A & B - 2 adults and 2 kids in each. Nice to each have a private place and a joint outside area. The location is great, especially for families. Quiet, nice & safe neighborhood. It was a block away from a park with playground, tennis, pickleball and basketball. The beach is a short walk (1 block & 1/2). Close to restaurants and shopping. The home was lovely & clean. Tastefully decorated with beach theme. 2 Bedroom, bath, living room, kitchen and eat in dinning. Plenty of space for our family even on the rainy day. The yard was nice to have to get together as a family and still respect social distancing recommendations. The kids enjoyed catching lizards in the yard. This yard is shared with Unit A & B. However, Unit B had an additional small yard area / deck off one of the bedrooms that was private. There were beach chairs and some toys for our use and even a wagon to pile beach items in and take to the beach :) We would recommend Mermaid Cove and would rent the units again on our next stay in Indian Rocks Beach. Management / owners are very responsive and take pride in their home

Perfect beach getaway
This is our 3rd time renting a property from Sabrina and Bill as they have always been wonderful hosts and their properties are beautiful and well kept. We chose Mermaid's Cove as it was a 2-bedroom with a separate living/kitchen area and close to the beach (2min walk). Check-in was easy and instructions were provided the day of. The property had everything needed for an extended stay (2 weeks w. 2 children 10yo/8yo) and more. Kitchen was fully stocked with utensils and dinner/cookware and basic necessities such as coffee filters, sponges, soap, etc. The large window in the kitchen was wonderful to eat breakfast by. The living room was spacious and furniture was confortable (loved the couch/sectional). The bedrooms were the perfect size and included large closets which helped keep the rooms clutter free during the stay. The queen bedroom had a door leading to a private deck/walkout with a table and chairs. The king bedroom had more than enough space for 2 adults and empty suitcases etc. Bathroom was a good size and never felt cramped. Everything was clean on arrival with towels and extra bedding available. The vacuum/broom/dustpan came in handy for after the beach. I love that there is a separate laundry room and so many beach items available. Overall, the stay was excellent and we enjoyed our time there. We had a minor issue towards the end of our stay which resolved itself but Bill was very quick to respond. Hoping to book again for 2025 once our time off confirmed.
