About this property

Blue Heron Cottage & Carriage House— Luxurious beachy elegance at its best

Much like the majestic coastal bird it’s named for, Blue Heron Cottage & Carriage House is classic, elegant, and quintessentially Floridian. Filled to the brim with luxurious finishes— like hardwood floors, marble countertops, and Viking appliances— this serene 4-bedroom/4.5-bath retreat is located on an idyllic sun-kissed corner of Rosemary Beach. You’ll be steps away from the gorgeous Sky Pool and a short bike ride to the sandy beach.

Enter through the front door and into the open-concept, professionally decorated living space. Neutral sand tones and crisp whites are accented with pops of soothing navy blue. Painted wood beams highlight the high ceilings overhead. The glossy blue accents continue into the kitchen, where custom cabinets and stainless steel appliances create the perfect spot to brew the morning coffee or flip a stack of banana pancakes in the morning.

Upstairs are three private bedroom suites, each with its own bathroom. The primary suite features a sumptuous king-size bed and a spa-like bathroom with a walk-in closet and a freestanding garden tub. The second bedroom has a queen-size bed and a private bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The third bedroom includes a twin-over-twin-size bunk bed and a queen sized bed. There’s also a washer and dryer on this floor.

Just across the private courtyard lies the Blue Heron Carriage House. Although a part of the Blue Heron property, the carriage house offers a wonderful separation and feeling of space for large groups. The carriage house includes a bedroom with a queen-size bed, a full bathroom, a living area with a sleeper sofa, and a full kitchen. Charming white shiplap and nautical accent pieces add a lovely, beachy charm to this elegant space.

Blue Heron Cottage & Carriage House has lots of peaceful, sun-dappled outdoor space, too. Take your mug of coffee out to the wrap-around balcony in the mornings, or relax with a frosty courtyard cocktail in the late afternoon while burgers grill on the Green Egg. When you’re ready to explore Rosemary Beach, slip on your flip-flops and take a stroll— there are lots of options for dining and shopping right around the corner. Plus, the heated Sky Pool is across the street. And when you want to hit the beach, it’s a short bike ride across 30A to the sand.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The decorated and functional house that we have ever stayed at. The location was perfect to get to the beach and stop at the pool on the short walk back. The location was also perfect to visit the merchants in downtown Rosemary. The house was well maintained and has many amenities like cooler, chairs, kids toys, umbrella and very usable courtyard that we all gathered at for morning coffee and evening happy hour. If it is available when we book again, we will definitely book the house again. The staff was also very good in their communication.

This home is beautiful! We especially enjoyed entertaining in the spacious chef’s kitchen and open floor plan. The enclosed patio was perfect for our shrimp boil where we entertained over 20 friends staying at other properties in Rosemary. We will definitely book this home again!

Great home for a 40th birthday trip
We rented the main house and carriage house and found it to be perfect for our party of 3 adult couples without kids and 1 couple with 2 kids. We had one minor service request that was fixed very quickly. The home is beautiful and location is great!

Rosemary Beach trip
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was great. We had a great time. The only thing I would mention is that both clothing dryers on the property are missing lint traps. So besides being a fire hazard, the clothes did not dry well. We also limited our laundry due to this.

Fantastic House in Great Location
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great weeklong trip to Rosemary Beach staying at the Blue Heron. The main house including the guest house comfortably fit 2 families with 4 kids under 4 years old. House was clean, bathrooms were very nice and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the fenced in courtyard that felt safe having a bunch of little kids around. Close proximity to the beach, multiple neighborhood pools, splashpad and the main retail/restaurant area. Would highly recommend.

Great for a large family!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautifully decorated and cozy home that's perfect for a few couples or a big family. Tucked about a block behind the Town Center and easy walking distance to everything in Rosemary. My nephew loved having the pool and tennis courts just across from the street (though the pool could be a bit loud at times for us old people). Plenty of room to spread out in the kitchen and living area, and it was great to have privacy for napping in the carriage house. Overall, a great spot!

Rosemary Beach Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been coming to Rosemary Beach for the last seven years. Each year we have stayed in a different house, for multiple reasons: too small, not clean, property manager not attentive. This is the first year that everyone in our party agreed that we would stay at this house again. Large kitchen/living area, which is a must. Nice size bedrooms and a washer and dryer in the house and garage. It is a two minute bike ride to the beach, directly across from the sky pool, and has enough parking.

A Spring break getaway for all!
This house was beautiful! Plenty of space for all. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals at home. And there were plenty of restaurants close by. We enjoyed biking everywhere! The beach and pools were close to the house and easily accessible either by walking or bike. The property managers were responsive to the few questions we had and the app was great for check in and general information. We loved our time in Rosemary Beach and hope to return!

Beautiful home in idyllic location
We just returned from a fabulous week with our family and can’t say enough positive things about this cottage and the property management. The home is gorgeous- beautifully designed yet very family friendly and in the perfect location across from pool and fitness center and super short walk to beach and town center. We loved everything about this home and are already looking forward to returning soon. It was stocked with everything we needed, impeccably clean, and very comfortable. The property management group was very responsive and eager to make sure our stay went well. Highly recommend this property!

Blue Heron Stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall a fun positive stay . I didn’t think the house lived up to the price . I have stayed in much nicer homes there for less money . Bedrooms were small . Found many inconveniences during our stay . Lights did not work upstairs or on the stairs or on porches . Waterfall not working . No substantial outside lighting . A motion light that went off before you could reach your destination . Master bath floor was sandy. Lamps seemed to be in disrepair . Limited space in kitchen to store groceries .

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at the Blue Heron house in Rosemary. Everything was as described and the app was very helpful with any questions we had during the stay. The location is fantastic with easy access to the pools, beach, town center, and tennis. We really enjoyed the kitchen and outdoor grilling options provided. The space was perfect for our family of 5 (3 kids under 8) and the carriage house was great for the grandparents. I would say be prepared to bring all oils and seasonings (yes even salt and pepper) as there is nothing provided. But overall we would highly recommend the Blue Heron Cottage and would definitely return.
