Was able to get away to Flips Flop House for a ladies long weekend and we enjoyed it so much! Tybee is our new favorite getaway and FFH is in a great location-so quiet and peaceful and a great area for walks! We loved hopping over to AJs for a bite and beautiful views! We had plenty of room for our ladies and owners are so sweet to provide trash bags and other things to accommodate guests. We love the charm of these older beach homes! Don’t ever change!!!

This charming cottage provided ample private space for our group with a large living and dining room plus a huge screened porch for us all to gather. We enjoyed the quiet area and were not bothered by the restaurant parking across the street. This is our second time renting this house and we all agreed a return visit is a must! We also loved the mermaids, especially the wonderful Tammy, who not only made sure the house was clean and welcoming, but, when they learned it was a birthday trip, left champagne and a birthday card! It doesn’t get nicer than that!

Our Flip Flop House was all we hoped it would be . . . charming decor, side porch perfect for our morning coffee, proximity to AJ's Dockside & gorgeous sunsets, quiet neighborhood, outdoor outlet to charge our golf cart. We were not disappointed in any aspect of our stay (except maybe the dog hair in the corners & dog slobber on the windows, lol).

The cottage was very comfortable and spacious enough for our family to enjoy. The location was excellent and two restaurants were within walking distance. Enjoyed playing corn hole in the spacious yard. Would definitely come back.

Flips Flop is our favorite cottage. Perfect fit for our extended family and in the quiet back area. The Mermaids are always so responsive. It stormed every day, usually several times per day. The porch made it all OK. Go to the beach, retreat back to the porch for the storm and then back to the beach. The big side yard and next to the porch always gets used in one way or another. We brought our canopy and set up an "outdoor kitchen" with our gas griddle and the use of the grill there. We'll be back next year.

We do a family women's trip every few years. We had 10 of us this year. The house had everything we could have needed. We loved the back screen porch for lounging around, and the outdoor shower! Also the walk to the beach and shops was not far.

What a great place! We met up with family to spend a couple of days in the Savannah and Tybee area. The house had plenty of space for all of us and plenty of furniture to all of us to relax. We can't wait to come back and spend more time in the area.

We love Flips Flop House and will stay again soon. Our visit this time was during the brief spell of freezing weather here in South Carolina. The pipe in the out door shower burst and we were offered another rental while the plumbers fixed things at Flips Flop, but the plumbers had us up and running warm water again in a VERY short time ..so we were able to stay put in our cozy home away from home . Those Mermaids are the best !!

We rented for a week. Rental company checked with us and responded to anything quickly. We had five ladies and it was great. The back screened in porch was awesome. Only suggestion for that was a ceiling fan. Other thing for suggestions only was more hooks to hang towels in the bathrooms. We had a great time and will stay here again if we come back.

This was our second time staying at Flips Flop house, what an absolute gem of a vacation rental! We were a party of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids) and this house fits our family perfectly with plenty of space for everyone. The kids really enjoy the room off the kitchen with two twin trundle beds, and each adult couple has a room to themselves with french doors to the screened porch. We thoroughly enjoyed watching thunderstorms from the screened porch. The beach is a short walk or drive, and we also enjoyed walking to river for beautiful sunset views. This is a quiet neighborhood and the charm in this house is unbeatable. Mermaid is wonderful to work with and they take incredible care of the property as well as do a great job communicating information before, during and after our stay. We look forward to another stay in the near future.

This house is in a great location, but anyone that plans to rent should know that the twin bedroom has no door, only a curtain to shield it from the kitchen. Also, one of the bathroom's shower head is hand held, not overhead. The kitchen is also very small and has only the barest minimum of amenities. BUT, great front porch that shields the wind and catches the afternoon sun, AND roomy living room and dining room.

Everything was fine except we saw a couple of roaches in the kitchen and it would have been nice if all the rooms had TVs. Didnt know the restaurant parking lot was right across from us. The people were nice and quiet but would have liked a little more privacy. Other than that we enjoyed ourselves.

This beach house looks like someone just loaned us their historic, cozy beach cottage. The kitchen was outfitted well with the exception of no measuring cups. Lots of towels were provided. The beds were a bit too soft. The screened porch was wonderful and huge. There were two daybeds in the one bedroom and there were curtains to close it off. Room for three cars to park.

When we walked in the house was perfect and we fell in love with it instantly! This place was absolutely gorgeous!! Everything we needed was there for us and the home was very relaxing! The beach is not a far walk and there are some shops not too far as well that we enjoyed going to. We even had an accident and the maintenance was quick to have someone come out! We look forward to booking again with Mermaid Cottages!!! Mermaid Carol was awesome in helping with everything and is a very sweet lady!!

my family and I had a great time and Tybee Island. We really enjoyed the beach and staying in the Flips Flop house. My son and son-in law work in pest control and the hospitality industries respectively. As soon as the door was opened they ran in and did a complete inspection of the property for undesirables and overall condition of the house before declaring "it's all good" We had 10 adults and an infant and the house fit our needs perfectly.
