Virginia's place is a lovely oasis away from the main town. The Mermaid House is quiet and peaceful space that won't disappoint those wanting a unique island experience. We came to Block Island for our Honeymoon during the "off" season when many shops and restaurants were closed. Virginia provided us with lots of local tips on the few places still open that helped us have a memorable stay during the Island's quieter season. She was also always available for questions. For those nature lovers looking to experience BI for its beauty (not the shopping) this is the place for you!
