Wonderful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mermaid Crossing. The rental is spacious, beautifully decorated, and met or exceeded all of our family’s needs. It was our first visit to Kure Beach, and we fell in love with the charming beach town. We hope to visit again soon. BlueWater Realty Carolina Retreats was absolutely wonderful to work with and always responded promptly to any questions that we had. A+ service! Thank you for a great vacation!
