Tybee Island is the perfect escape…and we mean any time of year! Sure, summer is beautiful, but our fall and even winter are fabulous. The holidays are one of our favorite times of year, so when you stay with us for your holiday, it’s the best present we could have to know you trust your special memories to Mermaid Cottages! We can’t contain our smiles when we hear from you, our cherished guests, about your successful holiday stay with us. For instance, check out what Erika and Sarah had to say about their recent Mermaid Cottages holiday:
“This was one of the most relaxing and enjoyable Thanksgivings I can remember. The cottage is very whimsical and when you step outside you can hear the ocean. I believe that this was the first year in a new Thanksgiving tradition.” ~Erika W. from Mesa, AZ about a stay at The Shrimp Cottage

“This was our second year a Mermaid cottage. Dutton Waller was warm and inviting. Once we put a few lights out on the porch to have our traditional al fresco Thanksgiving, we were all set. Diane and her Thanksgiving Turkey elves took care of everything we needed. The concierge service is impeccable. I highly suggest you rent any of the Mermaid Cottages. I know we will be back again and I cannot wait.” ~Sarah S. from Los Angeles, CA about a stay at Dutton-Waller Cottage.
Dutton-Waller Cottage is just waiting for you!

We are so honored to say that, for the third year in a row, Mermaid Cottages was named the Best Decorated Business on Tybee! It couldn’t have happened without every single Mermaid and Merman in our group, so we want to send out a huge Thank You and Job Well Done to our entire Mermaid Cottages family for all their hard work making every single cottage merry for the holidays. The entire island does a fabulous job with decorating, so being honored this way really warms our hearts! Just look at these beautiful pictures from Fish Camp Cottage, Paws and Paddles Cottage, Dutton-Waller Cottage, and Paula Deen’s Y’all Come Inn!

Oh my goodness…where did November go?! It sure is hard to believe the Christmas season is already here and the New Year is right around the corner. I mean, wasn’t it July just yesterday?!
This time of year might be a slower season on Tybee Island, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing going on! Tybee is still beautiful during the fall and winter months, and you can still enjoy long lazy days of strolling with the beach all to yourself! Just look at these beautiful pictures from our very own Mermaid Margo, owner of Fish Camp Cottage. Pure beach bliss!
Thanks to Margo Cook for these amazing pictures from our corner of paradise!We love to decorate for the holidays!

“We loved everything about the Crabby Pirate Cottage!!! What an excellent trip! The cottage felt like home to us. We had everything we needed to make our vacation perfect. I will recommend Mermaid Cottage’s to everyone that I know. The beds where extremely comfortable and the kitchen was wonderful to have with the teenagers! The view of the marsh was wonderful also. We loved watching the wildlife early in the mornings.We can’t wait to return!”
Thanks for sharing Patti! We couldn’t be happier that your vacation was a huge success. We sure hope to see you again real soon!
Welcome to Lewis Avenue, home to Mermaid Cottages’ very own Crabby Pirate Cottage. This beautiful circa 1940 home is such a value! Crabby Pirate Cottage sits directly on the beautiful marshes of Tybee, so get ready for some amazing sunset views. Your bright and cheerful cottage features three cozy bedrooms, so groups of up to six sleep very comfortably. To make it even better, Crabby Pirate Cottage is also pet friendly! Don’t leave your best fur-iends behind! Bring them along to enjoy the salty sea air and gorgeous fenced-in yard.
Like all Mermaid Cottages, Crabby Pirate is close to everything Tybee Island has to offer! Enjoy a 15 minute stroll to the beaches and Tybee’s lively downtown, full of shops and restaurants, or just stay in and get away from it all. Your cottage has a fully equipped kitchen, cable television, and even complimentary high speed internet and WiFi! You can even enjoy a cook out or two on the grill provided outside! Crabby Pirate Cottage has it all!
