The bunk room, located on the ocean-facing side of the home is finished with a twin-over-double bunk bed, closet space and vistas of ocean across the way. There is also a twin trundle tucked under the bunk bed.

Connected to the bunk room by a shared full bathroom is the final bedroom that features a queen bed, constructed-in desk and closet space for your vacation essentials. A pack and play and a high chair are also included for your little ones.

An additional half bathroom and private office space also feed off the living area so you can find that ideal work life balance when you visit the coast!

Outdoor entertaining and relaxation is painless on both porches! The front porch offers rockers where you can sit and listen to the waves crash and pelicans glide by over the water.

The back screened porch accepts you to dine outside without in comfort. The back porch also provides access to the backyard and the pool where you can make memories of a lifetime!

Whether you are ready to jump into the ocean or the pool, both options await you at Mermaid Manor!

Tips to get the best Southport rental experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To book the largest vacation home within your budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local tours and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfectvacation home:

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Mermaid Manor: Ocean View Home with Private Pool, Close to Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a specific Southport attraction you simply love, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your . We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
