Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay. Location was great! I would recommend getting some better pillows for all the beds, and thicker mattresses for the bunk beds (they were a little thin and it was like sleeping on plywood). The ceiling fan was broken in the back bedroom and it got a little stuffy. It would also be helpful to have some type of hooks to hang wet clothing/bathing suits or towels in the bathroom.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, I really appreciate how easy it was to do all the paperwork and to check in, to get in! I've rented other properties and it was utter chaos. This was great and the people were super nice where we got the check in info. The property was very cute, felt roomy with the high ceilings, has a wonderful decor and vibe, and the outdoor shower and private sitting area were wonderful for my sister, myself, and my three legged, wonderful rescue dawg. The place was very well appointed with things we needed, and there was plenty of TP, soaps, etc, even though we brought more just in case. The rooms were laid out well so that we had our own spaces and privacy when we wanted it. The outdoor shower was great for keeping us all clean so there was no mess in the house. We loved the pool too, after spending enough time at the beach, and the location is very nice and convenient to restaurants, the primary store, and to the beach. Check out was fine and there were no surprises in the fees or costs. I highly recommend this place and it was especially a treat for my sister and myself to have a causal hang out, and a first traveling trip for my tripod. All went very smoothly. ##### Sarah L.

We were able to bring our dogs which made our family complete. The space was perfect, very cutely decorated! The only suggestions are: make sure cleaning crew actually sanitizes before 1)next guest arrives (it smelled like dog urine when we walked in); 2) provide more than 4 towels for a place that sleeps 8 people. Other than these two things - it was GREAT! We will be returning again and staying here! ##### Robin F.

Jun 19, 2021 #### Nice place to stay Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our cottage was very nice and very roomy & clean. Beautiful decor. Beds were a bit hard & they could put on softer sheets. We had everything we needed here. The pool was nice, although way too small for the amount of people in Pirates Bay & the water was way too warm. There is a second pool but it’s even smaller, so heats up even more. The main issue for us was not being able to have a golf cart. If that’s something your family enjoys and needs to get to beach without having to take your cars down, be warned you can’t drive up the hwy. You have to sneak across and it is illegal so, that was annoying. Other than that, our stay here was wonderful. ##### Paul W. W.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Neat Layout of the whole complex. Tall Ceilings. Nothing was over exaggerated - no bait and switch. The quality of the amenities were mostly 5 star. The living room TV needs to be replaced - the speakers in the TV are muffled and it needs to be a smart TV with options for Netflix’s and Amazon sign in like the Master Bedroom. I liked all the Decor accents and how the Mermaid and Beach theme all added to the ambiance of the trip. Very comfortable bedding and extra bedding as well. Plenty of towels. Marble Countertops. The fridge was kitchen made for some nice home cooked meals. The WiFi was awesome because my AT&T had only a bar of LTE. The area felt safe - the island felt safe - day and night - it was a safe place. This area will explode with growth soon. The local Restaurants and shops are friendly. Port Arkansas is a jewel but it’s also a community. If you have extra money to spend - spend it while you are there. I’m a business owner myself - so my heart goes out these small time businesses here. ##### David W.

Reviewer Comments: My family (consisting of myself, husband, and two young children) stayed recently at the Mystical Mermaid for 5 nights. Although a bit large for my small family, I did enjoy having an extra room that the kids could spread out their toys and playthings. The condo was beautiful and clean, and the property was great. Both pools were perfect for kids, offering plenty of shallow area to play in. It is actually my preference to not stay directly on the beach. With icechests, wagons, toys, etc. we would take our vehicle anyways. Plus, property wise, you get more bang for your buck. What I was looking for in a property was: a place with nice pools for the kids, something that had a WOW factor when stepping inside, bunkbeds- cause my kids love them, a washer and dryer, and a place that had plenty of extra space to spread out in. This place delivered! It was everything I had looked for and more. I would recommend it to anyone. ##### Rebecca C.

I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful condo, however housekeeping needs to clean after every stay. Our floor was so dirty we all had black feet if we tried to go barefoot. This unit needs more comfortable seating for relaxing. The chairs are very uncomfortable. a large group decided to set up a canopy and bbq with chairs and party in parking lot making it hard to get in and out. It also took away from guest parking. Which is right behind our parking making the parking lot cramped and hard to park and back out. ##### Stacy H.

Reviewer Comments: I thought vacation escapes was very attentive but I would not stay at pirates bay again. We wanted a cheaper rental and that is definitely what we got. We had to call management several times for anything from bugs in the rental to pool bathrooms needing attention. ##### Kristen B. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Great Wolf Lodge Grapevine](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Grapevine.h1906487.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hazelton Hotel Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-The-Hazelton-Hotel-Toronto.h1688828.Hotel-Information) > > [Viva V Samana by Wyndham, A Trademark Adults All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Samana-Hotels-Viva-Wyndham-V-Samana-All-Inclusive-Resort.h9858248.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Frisco-Dallas Hotel at The Star](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Omni-Frisco-Hotel.h18919478.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt DFW - Connected to the airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-DFW.h1209294.Hotel-Information) > > [The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Woodlands-Waterway-Marriott-Hotel-Convention-Center.h907442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin At The Woodlands](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Westin-At-The-Woodlands.h13173066.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels.d180002.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Regency DFW International Airport - Adjacent to Terminal C](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-DFW.h22022.Hotel-Information) > > [AT&T Hotel & Conference Center at the University of Texas](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-ATT-Hotel-Conference-Center-At-The-University-Of-Texas.h2169414.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Dallas - Richardson](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Dallas-Richardson.h18234.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tobermory](https://www.expedia.ca/Tobermory-Hotels.d59192.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Houston Airport Marriott at George Bush Intercontinental](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Houston-Airport-Marriott-At-George-Bush-Intercontinental.h22967.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton Splash Punta Cana, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Royalton-Splash-Punta-Cana-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h6480724.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-JW-Marriott-San-Antonio-Hill-Country-Resort-Spa.h2841775.Hotel-Information) > > [Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Gaylord-Texan-Resort-Convention-Center.h985065.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad New York Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Conrad-New-York-Downtown.h423480.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton DFW Lakes Executive Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hilton-DFW-Lakes-Executive-Conference-Center.h6039.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Dallas Fort Worth Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-The-Westin-Dallas-Fort-Worth-Airport.h1653.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sayulita](https://www.expedia.ca/Sayulita-Hotels.d601105.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Novotel Montreal Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Novotel-Montreal-Centre.h14727.Hotel-Information) > > [Home2 Suites by Hilton Lewisville Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Home2-Suites-By-Hilton-Lewisville-Dallas.h45970429.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to San José (SJO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sjo/vancouver-to-san-jose) > > [flights from pearson intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yyz/flights-from-pearson-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Banff (YBA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/yba/montreal-to-banff) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Puerto Vallarta (PVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/pvr/calgary-to-puerto-vallarta) ### Cars > [Minivan Car Rentals in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Minivan-Car-Rentals-In-Toronto.d178314-tMinivan.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) > > [Car rentals in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Niagara-Falls.d6023515.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Punta Cana](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/601906/Punta-Cana)
