I love Kodiak! The VRBO I stayed at was so perfect for me. The location was great and it was right on the bay. The balcony was great to sit on and enjoy the beautiful weather and watch the boats going by and the float planes taking off. I would stay here again!

Perfect studio set-up. Awesome view of the channel, easy walk into town. Quiet. Nice little deck. "Everything you need and nothing you don't." Would definitely recommend to a friend and plan to re-book on my next trip to Kodiak.

I loved this property and it was a perfect relaxing spot. I slept well and enjoyed the quiet. I highly recommend this place. If you stay here and have some mobility issues this may not be the best option. There are steep stairs and the bathtub has a higher ledge. Otherwise a beautiful location and plenty of places to walk for a great view. Please take advantage of Carol's Cab as well.

Terrific place with outstanding view of the water. Close enough to the Downtown area that it was an easy walk. Gina, our host, was easy to access and very helpful. Overall a great experience.

We stayed 7 nights and overall, would rent again. The efficiency is well decorated, clean, comfortable bed with a nice view of the water, watching boats come and go from the balcony. The hot water is shared with the other Suite so there were times we had to wait to shower.

The lady is very unfriendly from the moment trying to get in the door. Paper thin wall that you can hear the people upstairs snore and fart. Very steep steps to get in and out of the place. The hot water won’t fill the tub so forget that too. Don’t waste your money

The Mermaid’s Lair was a perfect getaway for me and my husband. We stayed 3 nights on a trip to Kodiak for golf and relaxation. We loved the view; the weather was perfect for sitting on the deck, and the room was comfortable and had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Our hosts made sure we were all tucked in, and let us enjoy the Mermaids lair. They offered to let us borrow bikes, and Wow! That was so much fun to see Kodiak by bike. It was more than just a stunning view!

The view was lovely. Quiet setting. We enjoyed the fishing boats coming in and going out of harbor. There were also sea otters to entertain us. In our final 24 hours we saw few small whales and groups of sea lions passing by. The bed and the room comfortable. Fun to utilize the claw foot bathtub. It was an easy walk to and around town. We also walked across the Near Island bridge to take in some hiking. The owner was nice, available and helpful as needed.

Apartment was nice, clean and photos were accurate. The view is slightly obscured by some trees but still a good view. We saw a sea lion and lots of boats coming and going. My only suggestion would be to change the chairs on the deck to the taller chairs so you could easily see over the deck railing. I would go back.

We truly enjoyed the coziness of this rental. It has a lot of space for two. The bed is comfortable with nice linens. I love the view of the water just off the deck. Plenty of room to hang our clothes and a large dresser. I highly recommend staying at the Mermaid’s Lair…the theme was throughout the beautiful rental. There are stairs going down to the rental and a claw foot tub to climb in and out of. This could be a problem for a person with a physical disability. We are in our 60’s and it wasn’t a problem for us.

The Mermaid Lair is absolutely stunning. The soak in the tub In the evenings and morning coffee overlooking the water was so very tranquil! Our stay was very relaxing and everything we hoped it would be aside from experiencing the 8.2 earthquake!! Wow! I guess we had the whole Alaskan experience this trip! Fishing was excellent! Captain Kevin of the Lucky 9 Charters did not disappoint! We took home over 100 pounds of fish! We also had time to take in a fun little hike ups to Termination Point! I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be back again!!

Excellent views every morning of the boats coming into the harbor, quiet with the slow wake for boat speeds, great amenities: coffee, shampoo/ conditioner, eating utensils; our neighbors above us were not loud; the oak flooring helps cushion sounds and creates a beautiful atmosphere. I loved this mermaid lair location; excellent host, provided thorough check in info and pamphlets available for the finest adventures kodiak has to offer! This location is charming, quiet, and all the amenities of a home away from home!! Thank you:)!
