Bucket List trip to Galveston
We traveled from South Carolina. Were so pleased with this condo near the beach! Walmart across the street, and a gas station with gas for 2.45 per gallon. The condo was perfect, and so clean. Everything was as described, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Spring Break
We took a 7 year old and a 1 year old to the beach/ocean for the first time and the Mermaid Landing was perfect right at the street east access to the beach. Host had chairs and towels. The rooms were comfortable and relaxing. Definitely will stay again!

Galveston stay
We loved this property. The condominium was clean the and very comfortable. My only complaint is the dishwasher needs to be replaced. It is an older model and did not clean the dishes very well at all. I don't mind doing dishes, but if you advertise a dishwasher it should be in decent conditionOther than that I would recommend Mermaids Landing to any couple looking to visit Galveston. The location was perfect, close to all the major spots in Galveston. It Was very comfortable and perfect for us.. Other than that I w

Not beachfront, hard to find unit
The property was clean but had an overpowering perfumed smell. The bed was tolerable but not a good quality mattress. The description should highlight the fact there is a highway between the condo and the beach.
It was well stocked with coffee and sweeteners as well as spices. Overall, the quality for the price was fair.
