    Flip Flops cottage was an amazing rental experience. We came down for just a getaway weekend and the cottage was clean, comfortable, and the proximity to AJs was perfect for us as we had dinner reservations there. Also, the yard is big and without those pesky Tybee sand spurs which my fur baby really appreciated. I would definitely like to stay here again.

    a guest from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma recommends this vacation rental

    We greatly enjoyed our time on Tybee! House was very accommodating for the amount of people that stayed. Location was great as the back river was within walking distance. Only thing I would suggest would be swapping light fixtures out for ceiling fans (living room, twin bed bedroom) as some of the rooms didn't cool as well as others. All in all, great time and experience!

    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!

    Lisa H from Lafayette, Georgia recommends this vacation rental

    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 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 !!

    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 was our second rental from Mermaid Cottages. The first was impeccable! Our experience at Flips Flop was very nice. As always the customer service is second to none. Tammy was wonderful and helped to rapidly address two issues with the home - fast and thorough. One issue remains: Flips Flop beds are not standard Queen sized. It may make a difference to some. Not necessarily a detractor, but ask about the beds.

    The Mermaids never disappoint! From making the reservation, to checking in, to our last minutes in the house, we felt very welcome and cared for. We were a group of 7, ages 16-85. Beds were super comfy. Kitchen was well stocked. WiFi was strong (one of the kids had to do online school for a day, and hubby had to log into work for a few hours every day). Walking distance to AJ's and marsh-side beaches. Younger folks could probably walk to the ocean-side beaches, but we drove because of our elder guests. When at the house, we spent most of our time on the porches. A perfectly relaxing vacation, catching up with relatives we haven't seen in over two years. Thank you, Mermaids!

    Flips Flop house was perfect for our stay with extended family. It is decorated amazingly. Had all the kitchen and table space, the bedroom layouts with bathrooms was just right. Some reviews we read before hand say the small parking lot across the street is an issue, but it is not at all. Being able to walk to AJ’s Restaurant after a day of sightseeing and then being out on a boat was just the thing! Diane / owner is knowledgeable of her cottages to help you pick the right one and wonderfully generous making our stay perfect. Highly recommend.

    We all had a blast. I was worried that three teenaged girls would be bored with their old Grandmother , but they fell in love with Tybee Island and Flips Flop House !! I can't wait to bring them again !! They loved all of the french doors that opened out onto the screened porch, that was their gathering place , feet up and phones out. We walked to A.J.'s for lunch, the pier at sunrise and, of course, the beach at Back River was our playground !! A trip to remember . Thank You Mermaids !!

    The Flip Flop House was easy to find, in a great location. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the river beach side or to the ocean side. The beach on the river was calm and with soft sand. The beach on the ocean had more waves and soft sand past the shoreline. The house clean with the exception of hair on our pilliows and sheets. I believe they were washed and it from static. The bedrooms connecting was a bit awkward with two adult couples in each room. The shower in the front bathroom was poor and the tv was a chore. Other than that it was great and comfortable. I’d stay there again.

    Lisa H from Lafayette, Georgia recommends this vacation rental

    Two families - 7 people total. We have stayed in a different cottage on previous trips. I highly recommend the Mermaids and especially this cottage. The screened in porch is huge and amazing. There is a pedestal fan in the laundry room that made the porch comfy even in the hot afternoons. If you are an early riser like me, sitting out there & listening to the birds was so pleasant. The outdoor shower is a must. The water was fantastic. The bedrooms are roomy & comfy. The kids' room was a huge hit with them. The dining room was big enough for us all for the big meals. If I had to say something negative, the kitchen could use a small island. There isn't a lot of counter space for dinner prep for a big group. We made it work just fine though. It is on the back alley side away from all the tourist chaos, which is our preference. A neighborhood kind of cottage. AJ's across the street was not an issue at all. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this cottage.

We enjoyed both porches and loved being in the quiet back river area able to experience gorgeous sunsets and the cozy neighborhood feel. Kitchen had all the amenities we needed and more. Beach was within walking distance, but too far for older folks carrying beach gear, so we drove each day. Next time, we will get a golf cart. 😊. Can’t wait to come back.

    Rachel S from Chagrin Falls, Ohio recommends this vacation rental

    This was our 4th time staying on Tybee Island in a Mermaid Cottage. Flips Flop House was amazing. The location was perfect, close enough to ride bikes to the beach, across from AJ's and near all the shops. We enjoyed breakfast on the screened in porch and hanging out in the large and bright living room. I was a little nervous about the kitchen because the pictures make it look very small, but it is actually quite large, nice and new and had all the amenities we needed. The decorations and furniture were perfect and so beachy. We had a little issue with the refrigerator leaking and the Mermaids took care of it right away. They are awesome! Flips Flop House is the perfect beach vacation. We will for sure be back next year.

    This home was way more than we could have asked for. The side porch that has entries indoors to three of the bedrooms was our all time favorite feature. We spent many mornings and evenings here talking. Everything was clean and this one-of-a-kind house gave us all the charm we were looking for. It accommodated 10 people easily and comfortably. We will definitely consider another visit to the Flip's Flop house next time we are on Tybee!!

    We liked the screen porch a lot. They really need to repair the hot and cold faucets in the front bathroom because they move around and it's hard to wash hands. The pedestal sink should be repaired to look cleaner too. Several of the outlets didn't work, so we had to use the hair dryer in a different room. A couple of the night lights didn't' work either. Otherwise, I liked the house.

    We had a great time visiting this house for the weekend. There were 10 of us and there was more than enough room for us to spread out and not feel cramped. We loved the side yard for games and the two porches for morning coffee. We were a short walk to the beach (about 20 minutes), which wasn't terrible at all. Just bring your backpack beach chair! :)

    I have to say that Mermaids is a most professional company!!! They have their act together and are the client is "in the know" before you arrive at their properties! Location was fine except a bit far from the beach. We thought the house could have been a bit cleaner especially bath floors, but overall it was fine. It was an adorable cottage...decorated so nicely!!! We enjoyed sitting on front porch talking to all the customers coming to A J's for dinner! We also liked just walking around the corner for a drink or dessert, at A J's, on several occasions while there. Lively place on the water!

    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.

The house is close to the beach, IGA,and some nice restaurants. The twin beds are in a room together and the three queen beds were all in separate rooms. We also enjoyed the screened in back porch to eat dinner or just relax. Very nice rental for vacation. The property management called us to make sure we did not have questions or issues.
