Thursday morning I received a very excited phone call from one of the memebers of our housekeeping team to tell me Mermaid Cottages was on The Today Show! Turns out the story was about the top 5 best places to retire and Tybee Island was one of the top 5! Even better- the video they used during the segment showed pictures of our various cottages: Maddie’s on Jones, The Shrimp and The Key Lime Parrot. The background- about a year ago we recevied a call from Good Morning America who wanted to do a story on Affordable Family Vacations. Barbara Corcoran- a nationally known real estate expert-had heard about Tybee and wanted to include our Island in the story. We sent her some video on Tybee and our cottages and Barbara used the video in the story and on her website www.barbaracorcoran.com. Some of the same video was used in this story . To see the actual video- please go to “Fun Stuff” on our website and then to Media. You can watch Ann Curry learn all about Tybee!
