Top hotels in Mermaid Beach
Turtle Beach Resort
This is what I would expect from a 3 maybe star place. Pay for towels, old, no dining options etc, not enough BBQs. Stairs to everywhere etc. quite a few pools - ok. Activities more geared to younger kids not 9 and above other than swimming. Would choose somewhere else next time.

Tropicana Motel
Very clean. Comfortable. Great position. Great staff. Unfortunately we lost power and couldn’t make a coffee or charge phones. Staff tried to fix it but couldn’t. Otherwise pretty good for an older motel.
