We couldn’t have wished for a better place for our family of 6 to enjoy! There were so many things provided that help us to just show up and enjoy ourselves! We have stayed at a few houses in the area and this was by far the best!

Beautiful place! Very clean and cozy.
Beautiful place! Very clean and cozy. We had a great time sitting by the fire pit every night. The pool was clean and nicely heated. Short walk to the beach and really appreciate the amount of beach towels provided! Neighborhood was very quiet. Perfect getaway :)
Perfect place for a low key week- close to the beach and the pool was perfect. Loved having the deck both covered and not. We rode bikes to the bars one night which was fun. They had a cart with towels and chairs and everything for the beach which was super awesome. Would love to stay again!

Thank you so much for that wonderful review. We look forward to hosting you all again in the future.
Perfect location! You can hear the waves from the beach from the back deck! My family of 4 had the best week and the kids(and us adults) LOVED the heated pool! The house is exactly as pictured and described and felt like a little home away from home! Plenty of extra beach towels and tons of beach toys/floats and chairs! The pool was so nice and clean. The propane tank for the fire pit was empty our first night, I sent a quick message to let them know and the very next morning someone was there to go have it filled up and it was up and ready to use that night! If I could give 10 stars I would! Will definitely book again for our next vacation in Gulf Shores!

We really enjoyed our stay at Heron’s Hidaway. Everything was as advertised and the hosts are very responsive. We really enjoyed the cabin feel in this home and having good bicycles for use during our stay. The heated pool is fantastic.

About the host
Hosted by Jessica
We have travelled and stayed in VRBOs all over the world. We love the convenience and comfort of staying in a home and have appreciated those hosts that make an extra effort. When we got our own VRBO home, it was important to us to make it a place that we would want to stay and love. We know the effort and expense that goes into finding and choosing a vacation spot, gathering family and traveling to the location. We want our home to always be a place our guests are excited about and glad to arrive at.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Gulf Shores, AL on our first visit. The beaches are some of the best anywhere and we love the quite small town vibe as well. We love this house for its private pool, comfortable back deck to hang out on and its close proximity to the beach and town.
What makes this property unique
Private salt water pool, close to town, close to beach
