Perfect room, great view, comfy bed. It is down a full flight of stairs. A parking space is provided. Also coffee maker in room, microwave and fridge. Nice TV. Lots of closet space. The tub is a claw foot high sided tub. If you are mobility impaired, it could be difficult. I had a great 5 days here at the Mermaid Lair.
Awesome Views! So comfortable, clean, and cozy. The decor was charming, bed very comfortable, and such a lovely quiet place to stay. Will definitely be back!
I love Kodiak! The VRBO I stayed at was so perfect for me. The location was great and it was right on the bay. The balcony was great to sit on and enjoy the beautiful weather and watch the boats going by and the float planes taking off. I would stay here again!
Perfect studio set-up. Awesome view of the channel, easy walk into town. Quiet. Nice little deck. "Everything you need and nothing you don't." Would definitely recommend to a friend and plan to re-book on my next trip to Kodiak.
I loved this property and it was a perfect relaxing spot. I slept well and enjoyed the quiet. I highly recommend this place. If you stay here and have some mobility issues this may not be the best option. There are steep stairs and the bathtub has a higher ledge. Otherwise a beautiful location and plenty of places to walk for a great view. Please take advantage of Carol's Cab as well.
The lady is very unfriendly from the moment trying to get in the door. Paper thin wall that you can hear the people upstairs snore and fart. Very steep steps to get in and out of the place. The hot water wonât fill the tub so forget that too.
Donât waste your money
Super stay, great view, small but you have everything you need as long as your not planning on cooking. We have rented this property twice in the past two years.
Terrific place with outstanding view of the water. Close enough to the Downtown area that it was an easy walk.
Gina, our host, was easy to access and very helpful.
Overall a great experience.
We stayed 7 nights and overall, would rent again. The efficiency is well decorated, clean, comfortable bed with a nice view of the water, watching boats come and go from the balcony. The hot water is shared with the other Suite so there were times we had to wait to shower.

The Mermaidâs Lair was a perfect getaway for me and my husband. We stayed 3 nights on a trip to Kodiak for golf and relaxation. We loved the view; the weather was perfect for sitting on the deck, and the room was comfortable and had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Our hosts made sure we were all tucked in, and let us enjoy the Mermaids lair. They offered to let us borrow bikes, and Wow! That was so much fun to see Kodiak by bike. It was more than just a stunning view!
The view was lovely. Quiet setting. We enjoyed the fishing boats coming in and going out of harbor. There were also sea otters to entertain us. In our final 24 hours we saw few small whales and groups of sea lions passing by. The bed and the room comfortable. Fun to utilize the claw foot bathtub. It was an easy walk to and around town. We also walked across the Near Island bridge to take in some hiking. The owner was nice, available and helpful as needed.
