Mermaid Tale: Key Lime Parrot Cottage

Welcome to your home away from home on Tybee Island, Key Lime Parrot Cottage! If you are looking for the perfect island getaway, look no further, you’ve come home. The Key Lime Parrot is the ideal choice for a family vacation. With one king, one queen, and two full beds, this cottage has plenty of room for everyone! Your cottage even sits right next door to The Shrimp Cottage! Looking for a way for two families to vacation together, but still have some privacy? Be neighbors at the beach and book both homes! Both cottages are directly across the street from Memorial Park and the Tybee YMCA, so there are plenty of opportunities for activities to keep you busy. Key Lime Parrot Cottage is also ground level, making it perfect for anyone looking to avoid climbing a lot of stairs.

During your stay at The Key Lime Parrot, you are close to everything Tybee Island has to offer. Picnic in the park, take the beautiful 4 block stroll to the beach, or bring your bikes and enjoy cruising where ever you need to go! Your cottage is the perfect home base after a day full of trips to local hot spots, like The Tybee Lighthouse Station, the Pier and Pavilion, or Fort Pulaski. It’s also an oasis in which to escape the world. If staying close to home is more your speed, you’ll enjoy the cozy quirky atmosphere. There’s a fully equipped kitchen for all those home chefs out there, loads of books and games to enjoy, and cable television for surfing of a different kind. You can even stay as connected as you want with the complimentary high-speed internet and WiFi. Brew a cup of our Mermaid Morning Bliss (waiting for you in every cottage!) and enjoy rocking the day away in one of the many rocking chairs, or enjoy the beautiful privacy of the fenced yard. Take it slow and enjoy the salty sea air from your screened porch. Rinse off in your private outdoor shower after a day of beach combing…it’s up to you!

Key Lime Parrot Cottage is just missing one thing…YOU! You don’t have to wait, either. We have dates available now! Plan your visit online now, or give us a call at (912) 313-0784 and let us help you plan your perfect island escape. We hope to hear from you soon!

Mermaid Tale: New Addition at the Mess Hall!

Here at Mermaid Cottages, we pride ourselves on the beauty and comfort of each and every home we offer. We love to know our guests have everything they need during their stay, so when we make additions or improvements, we like to share them with you! The addition over at The Enlisted Men’s Mess Hall is one example!

The home used to be a two bedroom with one full bath, one half bath. Now, The Mess Hall boasts two full bathrooms with the addition of a brand new shower! The addition is in the front bedroom bath, where the two twin beds make their home. This makes the cottage even easier on families and groups, since there are now two locations to freshen up after a day of beach combing! Isn’t it lovely?

We are so excited about the new addition, and hope future guests find it just as wonderful as we do! Want to see it for yourself? Well, plan a trip today: we have open dates right now! The Mess Hall is just waiting on one thing… YOU!
