Wonderful Experience

My daughter and I absolutely loved staying here. Very short walk down the lane to the beach. People were so friendly and it felt safe. This location was close to my Ventura family. Little scary for us when the fires started in Ventura but there was a quick response to put them out.Beds were comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. LOVED the candy jar-we love Smartees.We could have walked to a few stores but didn’t need to. I do recommend this property.

Nice location and cute cottage

This cottage's location is good and is walking distance (10min) to multiple beach areas. I felt safe there with my young kiddos (7 and 8 years old). The cottage itself is cute and had nice decorating touches. We encountered two issues. One was the cleanliness of the 2nd bed which had visible hair on both the bed and pillowcases and the bedskirt was stained/dirty. Unable to find other sheets, I notified the owner via vrbo but didn't get reply until the following afternoon. (She did refund a portion of the cleaning fees and ask the cleaning company to contact us the next day). Secondly, the unit next to us was doing some work and we were awoken each morning between 7-8am to loud moving/pounding sounds. It would have been nice if the owner had informed us of this work since we were on vacation and trying to sleep in a bit. Overall, it's a nice cottage and in a good location.

Family visit

Great location. Easy access to the beach and restaurants. If you’re interested in using bikes, you will need to let management know prior to your arrival. Also, the washer and dryer are in a cabinet in the backyard. If you plan to cook, the kitchen was fully stocked with pots and pans, dishes, everything needed to make a meal. It was a great stay. Thank you.

Cozy beach bungalow

My family and I stayed at the Merry Mermaid while in town for a wedding. The space was so cozy and inviting, and stayed cool with constant sun. Walking to the beach every morning was a huge highlight, and the beds were very comfortable as well! Hoping to get back here again some day.

East coast to west coast visit made easy!

This place was great! It was clean and decorated nicely. The kitchen was nice. We cooked a lot and found everything. We loved the bedroom with the sitting/tv area. We loved the beach or marina walks close by. Dukes was around the corner and we could walk to the grocery store. The host was super responsive. We were able to visit with our family in area easily. Thank you!

Ventura Beach Pierpont by the Sea

A wonderful place to stay, it was clean, quaint, and simple. It was advertised properly and made our family business reunion special. I rarely write a review, this was such a nice place that it was a simple way of saying "thank you." It accommodated three adults in a very nice way that was comfortable and not overcrowded. The art work and mermaid theme was very welcoming. Thank you for making this a wonderful week.

Simply The Best

The Merry Mermaid was the most enjoyable rental we've ever experienced - and there have been many! The home was clean and cozy, bright and relaxing. The beds were amazing and the towels were fluffy. The neighborhood was adorable and so much was within walking distance. We particularly loved Juice Swell just a few blocks away - the avocado toast, smoothies and coffee were amazing. The kids loved the frozen yogurt place and Social Tap had good food. We were so happy to experience staying at such a special place!

Charming Property!

This charming beach house was a great home base for exploring the Ventura area. It was a block from the beach and conveniently located by restaurants and a grocery store. It was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked for anyone who wants to cook. We loved the beach themed decor to remind us how close to the beach we were! Communication with Jen was very good and she was quick to accommodate us when we had to make a change in our plans. Check in and check out was easy.. We would recommend this property!
