Great Stay@ The Heron

5 of 5
Submitted: March 29, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
What a little piece of paradise staying in this clean,spacious condo...we had lots of family visiting and were very comfortable with room and privacy.Wether you want a quiet retreat, or a get a way filled with meeting nice families, you can have it all! Great location to the convenient boardwalk, and fun park right on the beach for young kids to play while you watch and relax with a margarita in hand! The pools and water fun for families is a huge bonus!What a nice way to regroup and get away from the hustle and bustle of reality. Thank you for the oppurtunity, and for being so informative,easy to get a hold of, and mostly for the cleanliness and comfort of home. Many Blessings!

Wonderful Stay!

We had a wonderful time and experience at this condo! It was clean, spacious and nicely decorated. The balcony was relaxing and we were able to enjoy some nice dinners around the large table. The kids had a fantastic time at the lazy river both during the day and evening. What rounded out the beautiful condo was that the owners were easy to work with. Not only were they efficient, but it was apparent that they were personally interested in making our stay enjoyable. Many thanks to them....we will be back!

Great condo, well maintained and good location in the complex. Faces east so you don't get the hot afternoon sun on your patio. Owners are a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.
