Need other baby gear during your stay? Rent cribs, car seats, strollers, toys and more from BabyQuip!
As seen on Shark Tank, BabyQuip offers clean, sanitized, and safe baby gear in over 500 cities!
Visit https://www.babyquip.com/a/62zwln to make a reservation.

Don't worry about bringing or buying beach gear. The house is stocked with sand toys, beach chairs, beach towels, a beach cart, etc. Just bring your own Speedo and flip flops!

Unlike many beach side properties this one features a large parking area with room for six cars.
A car is nice to have to see attractions further inland but guests without a car can take the Suncoast Trolley (trolley stop is a few steps from the front of the house)
up and down the Pinellas County beaches from Clearwater Beach to St. Pete Beach. Indian Shores features dedicated walking and separate bike path lanes.
There's plenty within a 2 mile radius - ice cream shops, Smugglers Cove mini golf, the seabird sanctuary, and tons of great restaurants. By car the house is 5 minutes from a Publix; Target and numerous other stores are all within a 15 minute drive.
We love spending time at 'Three Mermaids and a Crab' and hope you will, too!

Perfect location
The house was well stocked (but only had travel sized shampoo and such so bring your own or get some from the nearby mart). The kitchen had more than we needed for breakfasts and lunches to be prepared. The walk to the beach was so short and they supplied many items for the re as well (plenty of chairs for our group of six). I recommend renting a cool cabana from green iguana (short walk to pick up). The pool was nice at night and for getting out of the sun in the early morning and the evening. The only “issue” would be the flooor is buckling in a couple places but they tried to rectify it with some warning tape. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Beach House!
This was the perfect house for our family to end the summer in! The house is fully loaded with everything you need for a great trip. Two large bedrooms and a bunkbed room for the kids. The wagon, beach chairs, towels and umbrellas all made getting to the beach each day a breeze. A 30 second walk and you are in the sand! Afternoons and evenings in the pool were a great way to end the day! We will definitely be booking again if we are ever back in Indian Shores!

Fantastic place. Will be returning for sure.
This house is the perfect size and is in a great location. Plenty of parking, pool is perfect for afternoon relaxing and the beach is a 3 min walk. Shops-n-stores are all close by. Steve was a great host making sure everything was in place. He even checked in with us on our arrival to make sure we had everything we needed. The weather was absolutely perfect and the beach was crystal clear.

Three Mermaids and a Crab beach house
This was a great house for our family of 4! (Kids ages 4 and 2) We loved the pool and the proximity to the beach was amazing. We especially appreciated that the house had beach toys, chairs, and a wagon. The house is near lots of restaurants and conveniently located. We had a great time!

Just plain awesome
Terrific! This place has it all… location, outdoor pool and deck, 90 sec walk to the beach! Our family of 6 loved the pool area. We spent more time there than at the beach! If you like ice cream, walk in either direction and you have a choice in under 5 minutes! All you really need to bring are your clothes. The hosts have thoughtfully provided everything you need for the beach or pool. Laundry on site was also a huge plus with 4 kids! Outdoor grill was actually clean, unlike other properties we’ve stayed at. The restaurants in the area get really busy, really early in the evening, so we utilized the grill several nights. This is by far the best vacation rental we’ve ever stayed at! You can’t go wrong with this place!!

Excellent communication with property manager. House is exactly as described on website and in pictures. The neighborhood is both quiet but with great access to restaurants and nearby cities. Heated pool is wonderful and beach is just around the corner and beautiful and uncrowded. Great place for a relaxing vacation.

We really enjoyed our time at 3 Mermaids and a Crab. The beach was so close, and the location is a short drive to just about anything you want to do. The pool is so wonderful to have when you want a break from the sand. The beds were comfortable, and it was just a really cozy place to stay.

Perfect SFH on the beach with a pool!!
Our family had a great stay at 3 Mermaids and a Crab! The house had everything you needed and the short walk to the beach was amazing! The backayrd pool was a added bonus. If you love local coffee, there is a great coffee shop a mile down the road called Indian Shores Coffee! Amazing coffee and homemade treats. My Brother and SIL are Vegan and they even had breakfast items for them. This home is walkable to restaurants and bars. I would highly recommend staying here and will book again soon!
