About The Mermaid's Tail

The Mermaid's Tail is a glorious three bedroom self catering holiday home in Pringle Bay. This is the ideal spot for some isolation and a family beach holiday. Whilst staying here, you can go fishing, surfing, mountain biking or simply laze in the sun on the beach, which is a mere 10 minute stroll from the house.

There are a number of shops and restaurants in the main shopping centre and many attraction and activities for your enjoyment in Pringle Bay and the nearby surrounding areas.

Self Catering Accommodation

The house is fully furnished and has three bedrooms and a sunroom off the lounge, which is separated from the lounge with sliding doors and curtains for privacy.

The main bedroom has a queen size bed with a king size duvet and an en-suite shower and toilet. The second bedroom has a queen size bed with a king size duvet and separate access to a family bathroom with a bath, shower and toilet.

The third bedroom has two single beds with ¾ duvets (two of the beds can be placed together to form a king size bed with an extra 'memory foam' mattress topping to cover the gap between the beds) and a separate en-suite shower and toilet.

The sun room is situated off the lounge and offers a double bed, and for children there is an extra pull-out “futon” bed and a daybed sofa. There is also a comfortable double sofa bed in the lounge for overflow accommodation. The lounge has a TV with DStv, a CD / DVD player, a mini Hi-Fi and Wi-Fi. White bath towels and striped swimming towels are provided.

The kitchen is fully equipped with cutlery, crockery, stove, microwave, fridge, kettle, toaster, cooking utensils (including high quality waterless stainless steel pots), basic spices, sauces, coffee, tea, long life milk and sugar.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Verified reviewexcellent

Fabulous homely property. Easy to find off the main road. Friendly welcome on arrival with clear instructions on our stay. Lovely view from the terrace for sunsets. The pool was a real bonus. The property is considerably larger than expected and would be suitable for larger families / groups than ourselves. We had a little toddler so the mixed level of the property was tricky to manage but a carefully repositioned sofa sorted that issue. Easy walk to the shops or the beach but easy to park at the beach if you have a lot of child toys etc. Would happily recommend the mermaids tail for other people for their future holiday plans. Thanks for a lovely stay and hope to see you again in the future.

Our family enjoyed a peaceful stay at Mermaids tail. It was our first holiday since lockdown and we were impressed with the clean and homey feel. Every precaution was taken to ensure our safety. We cannot Thank our hosts enough. There are plenty of games and activities to keep the kids entertained even in the stormy weather we had. A true gem of a find. We will definitely be back soon..
