Designed with family fun in mind, there's something for everyone here. If you are looking to put your toes in the sugar white sand beaches and emerald water, you are a 10 min walk to Ed Walline Public Beach Access which is equipped with parking, bathrooms, outdoor showers, picnic tables, grills and is ADA accessible. Across from the beach access is Gulf Place which offers restaurants like Shunk Gulley with stunning gulf views, shopping, bike rentals and live entertainment. If the pool is more your speed, we are just a few houses away from the community pool which is never crowded because it is only available to the small number of homes on our street. From Gulf Place you have access to the 19 mile paved bike path that parallels the entire length of 30A passing through all the famous beach communities (Dune Allen Beach, Grayton Beach, Seacrest Beach, Seaside, Alys Beach, Rosemary Beach).
For shoppers, the Grand Boulevard shops and Silver Sands Premium outlet mall have anything you may want, and there are numerous golf courses nearby and several tennis facilities all within a 15 minute drive.
Note: Parking for 3 cars. No student rentals. Street legal golf carts are allowed on 30A.
Guests pets are not allowed and smoking is not permitted in our home.
Grocery stores are less than a 10-minute drive and Publix now has online ordering and delivery to our area allowing you more time to relax and enjoy your vacation.

Had a wonderful stay. The house has everything needed to make your vacation experience a time to remember. The home was extremely well cleaned and stocked. Angela had the best communication from the day I made the booking all the way through the time we left paradise. Don’t hesitate to book your stay here, you won’t be disappointed.
We loved staying here. The property is in a great location. An easy walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. Not in a really busy, touristy area so it was perfect for what we wanted. Hosts were really nice and accommodating. They immediately took care of anything we needed.
This beautiful house was perfect for 9 of us. We and our family of 6 and friends family of 3 found everything to be just what we hoped for. The beds were comfortable and the ensuites for each bedroom was wonderful. The house was very clean and all the extras for our stay was provided. Location peaceful and great for short drive or walk to town and beach. The info book made everything easier. Great vacation had by all.
We had a wonderful stay with our family of 6 adults and one child. The home was spacious, very clean, and very comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone to relax without feeling crowded. There were more than enough towels for beach/pool use and we loved that there were some beach toys for the little one to enjoy!The walk to the beach was easy, about 10 minutes, and the neighborhood was welcoming and safe. We’d recommend renting beach chairs and bringing along your favorite games for evenings or a rainy indoor day.All in all, a fantastic rental for a laid-back, family-friendly beach vacation. We'd absolutely stay here again!
If you are looking to stay on 30A look no further, just book this house! The location is PERFECT! It is tucked away on a quite street with a private back yard and is just a quick bike ride/walk to the beach. It is also just a minutes walk to the pool! The house is clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated. It was plenty of space for 3 families and a huge bonus that each room had its own bathroom. The house is equipped with everything you could need to enjoy your stay - from the kitchen to the beach (chairs, towels, toys, umbrella). The host is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We had a great time during our stay at the Blue Heron and are thankful for all the wonderful memories!
This is the perfect beach getaway for you and your friends or family. It's just a short walk or bike ride to the beach and several great restaurants and ice cream shops! The house comes with four bicycles that our teens loved riding. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, plus one more half bath downstairs. How awesome is that!! You will love reading and chilling on that daybed on the upstairs porch! You'll also love the kitchen that comes equipped with all the pots, pans, cookware, dishes and glasses you need. We ate around the big table and watched movies together on the big sectional! Our group of 9 loved this house and the wonderful Santa Rosa beach area so much that we're already talking about coming back. It's right off 30A, which makes for a short drive or bike ride to all the great beach areas and activities. If this is available for your dates, go ahead and book it before it's gone!
Angela was so accommodating. She was quick to answer any questions we had made our stay even better. The house was beautiful and very clean when we arrived. Very well equipped with anything you could need. Our family loved having the king beds in three bedrooms with on suites in each room. Definitely a beautiful home for a family to vacation in. Close to beach, restaurants and shopping.
The whole process was very simple and easy! We enjoyed our stay at the Blue Heron! The house had everything we needed and was in close proximity to the beach.
We had a wonderful stay at Angela's home. The accommodations met all of our needs and Angela was very quick to reply with answers to our questions. The house is in a great location, very clean and comfortable. If we ever return to Santa Rosa, we would definitely stay again.
Beautiful home a short walk from the beach. The house is even better than the pictures, gorgeous while still making you feel at home. Close to the beach and great restaurants. I would recommend this to anyone!
Great layout for families. Huge and clean bathrooms and bedrooms. Great kitchen and living room. Loved the large sofa so everyone can be comfortable. Would definitely rent the home again!
Our family vacation at The Blue Heron was just what we needed.
Angela is a wonderful host and her home was clean and well stocked. The neighborhood is quiet and it is an easy walk to beach and coffee shop. Each bedroom having its own bathroom is a huge plus! Would vacation here again!
It was a beautiful home located conveniently to everything. Even the bad weather did not dampen our stay. The kids were still able to get out and enjoy a bike ride and the adults were able to get out and enjoy leisurely walks! Would highly recommend this location! Will definitely be back!
This place was perfect. Host was AMAZING. Well decorated and tidy. Blocks from shops coffee restaurants and beach. Quiet neighborhood. Great internet. Loved it
Can not say enough good things about The Blue Heron! Adorable house, perfect location, and great little town. All king size beds were great for the adults and our three year old loved the bunk room. The bikes and extra beach towels were nice to have. Cooking was easy as they have all the essentials you need. We will definitely be coming back again!!
We had a family wedding and this listing was perfect location for not only the venue but to everything. I would highly recommended this rental . Very clean, spacious and we lacked for nothing but the steaks we grilled. Very comfortable house for three adult couples and kids. The 3 master bedrooms were perfect for our group. We definitely plan on staying here again in late summer.
This place was great. Looks brand new. There was plenty of everything from towels to pots and pans to trash bags. They had everything- beach towels, bikes, boogie boards, etc. The house itself was awesome. Bigger than it looks on TV. All my family thanked me for picking a great place. You will love it!!
The property was great and was a perfect fit for all 9 of us, including 3 kids who loved the bunk bedroom. I thought the house was even better in person than through the photos. It had a great space and met all of our needs. It's a very short walk to 30A, and close by a lot of local places, and the beach. We had a great time and would stay there again. Angela was great through the whole process and answered a few questions about the area prior to us arriving, and provided some great recommendations.
Home was stocked with everything that you need for your beach vacation. It was beautifully decorated with space for everyone! It came with 4 bikes but, we choose to rent a golf cart to get around. We also used the neighborhood pool. I would give this home 10 stars!!
