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.

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.

This place is incredible for your soul!

So peaceful and relaxing, feels like your own neighborhood! Walk to the beach in no time! Very comfortable home and you’ll want to extend your stay (I did!) So much to do within short distance and the idea of doing this annually only took about two minutes! Don’t miss out, this place is incredible for your soul!

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!

WE LOVEDDDD ITTTT!!!!! Couldn’t recommend a place more if you’re looking to stay here just do it I really don’t have to say anything else. My friends and I came for spring break and our hosts were the most generous and kindest people ever. The day we left I was already missing my time and I actually would do anything to go back! Just make sure you don’t book next spring break because I am calling dibs.

Hated to leave!

Check in/out was easy, the house was just as pictured. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach from the house, the heated pool was a big hit with our 8 year old. We made some great memories the only thing I would have changed is an extension of our time there!! Thank you Jessica for being a great host!

This house exceeded our expectations!

We had 4 adults and a 15 month old and this house exceeded expectations and suited our needs perfectly! We loved the beach (an easy 5 minute walk) and the pool was fabulous during the little one’s nap time. The covered deck was another great feature for morning coffee, lunch or drinks and cards in the evening! Will definitely book this house again if/when we return to Gulf Shores!

Would give 6 stars if allowed!

We had a great stay! Location was great! Close to “the main drag” but just out enough for peace and quiet. Easy access to the beach. Home was very clean with plenty of room for our party of 7. Would give 6 stars if allowed!

About the host

Hosted by Jessica

Host profile image
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
