We’ve added a special touch to the communal dining room at Golden Mermaid Villa—a giant, backlit world map that glows beautifully at night. This isn’t just for decoration; it’s a way for us to connect with all of you, our amazing guests, from all corners of the globe.

The map is covered in flag pins for every country, as well as all 50 U.S. states and Canadian provinces. We’re inviting our first guest from each country to place their flag pin on their home country. This will allow us to visually track all the places our visitors have come from, turning our map into a living record of our shared global community.

We can’t wait to see the map fill up with flags and learn about your home countries. So, when you arrive, be ready to find your place on the map and become part of the Golden Mermaid Villa story!
