Our family of 6 stayed at the Mermaid Beach House the week before Christmas and had a great time. The views and gardens are amazing, and it was very easy to walk up and down the beach to go to restaurants. It was also easy to flag down a passing water taxi for a quick ride. The people also made this a memorable stay. Melissa was so pleasant to work with. She provided lots of advice on activities prior to our trip and was very helpful during our stay. Loly was great too. She helped set up a fishing/snorkeling trip with Patrick who I highly recommend. In lieu of renting a car she picked us up from the airport, took us on a full island tour and drove us to the brewery in the jungle on the way back to the airport. I also recommend having Dixie cook at the house. She came two nights, and we really enjoyed talking to her while she made wonderful dinners. Overall this location was perfect, and the friendly folks we met made it even better!

I cannot say enough about how much we four adults enjoyed our stay! The Mermaid House was spacious and had everything we needed for our week-long stay. It was very comfortable, and the kitchen was fully stocked. The location was perfect--about halfway between the West Bay and the West End--and Melissa was extremely responsive and helpful. We enjoyed the sunsets every evening from the beautiful deck, and during the day we went snorkeling from the dock. Also, Melissa put us in touch with Patrick, who picked us up at our dock and took us for a half-day of snorkeling on the reefs nearby (I highly recommend contacting Patrick!). All in all, the house and Melissa made this one of our best trips ever. We hope to return:).

Our host, Melissa was great and very attentive! Juan Carlos kept the pool up & trimmed some trees away from the roofline that were loud in the wind on the metal roof. We loved the location of the home a few steps down to the beach! Unfortunately the home needs work. The kitchen drawer pulls and cupboards were not in working order, the pool shades are missing- making it virtuously impossible to use the deck in the heat of the day. The towels and linens need to be replaced badly they are dingy and musty, The pool chairs could use cushions. The bbq is not working 100% only a few of the burners turn on. We used the transportation that Melissa recommended and it was great! She stopped at the grocery store so we could stock Up! We also had Dixie cook dinner our first night, and it was outstanding!

Mermaid House (a lot of the locals still call it Casa Rubio) is exactly as advertised. It sits in a great halfway location between West End town and West Bay beach. The deck is uniquely elevated above the neighbor's houses which affords nice privacy while sunbathing. If there was any change we would make to the house, it would be some improved lighting as the interior is beautiful dark wood but tends to absorb the light. Minor detail though in an otherwise great house. The host, Melissa, was very accommodating and responsive. She has great connections for anything you would like to do. If you're there to dive, Clearwater Adventures is a short walk down the beach and proved to be a great operation. Other reviewers have done a good job of detailing other fun things like having the resident chef Dixie in to cook! We wished we had another week to stay!

A Beautiful home with stunning views and in premium location. All of our wants and needs were addressed very quickly by our host, Melissa, who goes above and beyond! Every recommendation and referral made our stay so memorable. Including transportation and excursions (i.e island tour, mangroves, fishing, massages etc) to dining....DO NOT miss out on DIXIE...WOW! Her food is amazing, what a blessing! Lighting could have been been brighter in some rooms. Additional shout outs to Loly, Afan, Shannon. Thank you to all!!! Look forward to returning to this beautiful home & island. Highly recommended!

I cannot overstate how much we loved our experience. This house is amazing but more importantly, our host Melissa made our trip better than we could have imagined. Melissa was helpful from before we left on our trip until the minute we headed for home. She set us up for rides to and from the airport with Shannon and Loly (Lola). She set us up with an Island tour with Lola which included a boat ride through the mangroves with a stop for lunch (this is a must do experience). Melissa scheduled two evenings of home cooked meals with Dixie which were absolutely scrumptious meals and tons of fun! The location of this house is perfect. It is a 5 minute walk to Clearwater Dive shop which I highly recommend for scuba and snorkeling tours on the reef. Also it is a short walk to the Gumbalimba Park which was a must do experience (monkeys, parrots, iguanas, ziplining etc..). Water taxis are easy to get from the private dock for a short ride to West End or West Bay. We cannot wait to return. Thank you Melissa, Lola, Dixie and Shannon for making our adventure so perfect! I highly recommend this house!
