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!
