Gulf Shores 2025 spring break

The rental had everything that we needed. Kitchen is very well stocked with everything you can think of. It was cleaned well. The host checked in upon arrival to make sure we had all we needed. The pool was warm and got used quite a bit. The neighborhood was quiet and a short walk to the beach. We had a relaxing family trip.

Everything You Need

Our stay at Heron’s Hideaway was everything we had hoped for our trip. The hosts are responsive and supportive and the property is well equipped for anything you may need in your stay. We felt the location was a great mix of quiet and accessible and the closest beach was a great place to spend time and our kids loved it.

Great Getaway

We enjoyed the location and home. Kids had a great time with the large connect four game on the deck. Was really nice to walk a loop from 12th street beach access, down the beach and then leave beach at 13th street beach access and then back to the rental home. Comfy beds. Pool was nice. Clean!

Nice family rental

We had a few hiccups with some things at the property after checking in, but the property manager was very responsive and tried to be helpful whenever possible. Overall, we had a pretty comfortable and nice stay. It's a really nice location very close to everything and to the beaches (just be prepared to pay for parking near beach access, unless you don't mind walking awhile). The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals. The kids really enjoyed the pool and the giant connect four on the deck. The board games were a but weathered, but still nice to have during downtime. The TV in the main room was giant and you can log in to your own streaming service. Wifi worked well. Beds were fairly comfortable (although the master bedroom bed was very noisy with every slight move so take note if you're a light sleeper). Kids loved the bunk beds and that they had a whole room to themselves. The rental was set up really nice. Very good for families.

Can't wait to return...

We drove in the rain for the last 3hrs of our 4.5hr drive and, I kid you not, when we parked & walked up to the back porch, the kids pointed out the big rainbow in the sky. Perfect timing. From the moment I opened the door & crossed the threshold, I was in love. Everything was just as pictured on the site AND!! AND!!! it was CLEAN! Cleanliness is uuuuber important to me & I felt so comfy here. The kids loved the bunk beds & with there being 2 sets, they were each able to have a top bunk. The pool, which we enjoyed as soon as we unloaded the truck lol, was the perfect size & temp... the lights are soothing & pretty at night too. The house is close to plenty restaurants & the beach is right around the corner. We drove like 2 minutes, if that, to get to beach parking ($8 for the day) & walked directly across to the beach. It's probably a 10min walk from the house. You can't go wrong with this one (I wish I could add pics). The owners were very communicative, even left us a nice insulated tote full of goodies (I'm a tote bag collector... I keep em in my truck for grocery shopping). I will definitely be returning. Who knows, this just might become our summer beach vacay house. Thanks for everything!

Great property

Had a very comfortable stay at Heron’s Hideaway. The property managers were so helpful. We were traveling with our two little ones (ages 1 and 3). Jessica was so helpful in letting me know what equipment the property had so that we knew what we needed to bring/rent. In addition, because there was no one staying the night before, they were able to let us check in a bit earlier which was HUGE to keep my littles on schedule for their naps. Loved the pool and the location to the beach couldn’t be beat! Great stay!

GREAT PROPERTY. SO MUCH FUN FOR FAMILIES

This home exceeded our expectations. It was so clean, open, and perfect I wish it was our home. Our kids enjoyed every minute they could in the pool which was the perfect temperature for me since I'm not a fan of super cold pools. The beach was so close we loved walking there at night to go crabbing. The moon and beach at night is amazing! Sitting on the balcony at night was so peaceful. Its just a great home I cant say enough.Jesica the host was beyond helpful. Shes great if you need anything. Which we didnt everything was perfect.
