This store is a nice touch! However, be aware of the lady working at the jewelry section. She isn't very nice and takes away from the welcoming feel. Hopefully she was just having a bad day and is much better now. I won't reflect this in my rating of the store, because every business has a bad hire that slips through occasionally. Other than that, well done Callahan's! I will be back.

Huge shop with plenty of options to pick from. I spent a good 45 minutes going through every other cute keychain, fridge magnet and mementos for Sunset Beach, NC.

I went in the next day to return and it was not the same nice lady at the counter who assisted me. I had the wrong receipt in the bag so she would not allow me to exchange. She was very annoyed. As many cameras as you have in this shop you can see I purchased the earrings the previous day. I will not be purchasing from this store again. My family and I can spend our money at other stores.

Mermaid Cove Boutique is an absolute delight. I don't normally go into beach shops to avoid the…read moretypical tourist merchandise, overpriced flip flops, shells, magnets, tees, rafts, etc. However, Mermaid Cove is a totally different experience. It is a treasure trove of upscale beach decor, women's clothing, accessories and gifts. The shop is bright and cheery and merchandised spectacularly. Your eyes can't take it all in and you feel the need to explore every nook and cranny of this boutique. There are many areas within this shop for jewelry, handbags, shoes, dish towels, beach tees, clothing, soaps, hand creams, placards and signs and so much more. I personally bought really cute sneakers, a soft Ocean Isle Beach sweatshirt and a bright fuchsia top. There were other things I wanted, but I just had to stop myself. The Mermaid Cove Boutique was so much that I was getting carried away. It's such a happy place. Go see for yourself. There are two other Mermaid Cove Boutiques. Check out their other stores in Oak Island and Surf City. Enjoy!

There's also very cute and funny beach themed decor. I also love the fact they have books about the kindred box. While it was touristy stuff, it made me happy to see so much Carolina stuff as a long time resident of them. NC hats, SSB stuff, and even simple little toys for the kids. The lady at checkout helped me pick the right size for a sweater I wanted. If it wasn't for her telling me I could try it on in a back room I never would've gotten the appropriate size. She was very kind and down to earth. Was a nice end to my trip there.
