Night Heron, West Unit. 6BR 5BA Beachview Beauty. Brand new in Summer 2021 and all 5 star stays since! Folks LOVE Night Heron. Private Pool PER SIDE. Perfect location. West Beach. West side of duplex. Close to everything, including the beach! Easy beach access across street. Cross at the Stop Light right outside! Awesome, affordable. Location. Location. Location!

This listing is for the Night Heron's WEST Unit, sleeping 18.

We do own both the the Night Heron, East Unit, and the Night Heron, West, Unit, or you can book them together as a 12BR, sleeping 36, as the Night Heron, East & West! Private pool PER SIDE! However you choose to slice and dice it, it will be a great stay!

BRAND NEW in 2021. High end features and furnishings. Awesome open floor plan on main level. Well accommodated kitchen with island.

LOCATION!
Walkable to Bahama Bob's, Hangout, so much more! Convenient to walk to ice cream, Island Outfitters (right across 4th street!), beverage store, Italian ice, and more! 10 minutes walk to the Hangout, 2 minutes to Bahama Bobs (we are EAST of Bahama Bobs). So close to everything, yet in your own private duplex, whether you rent one side, or both, you get your own private pool (TWO if you rent both sides!). No sharing unlike condos etc!

POOL
You bet. Private PER SIDE! EACH UNIT has its OWN private pool. No sharing.
Added a propane gas pool heater, so YES the pool is heatable to a maximum of 82' (the high side of recommended rec pool temps) to take the chill off! This service is by request in advance with a per night surcharge for length of stay (gas is expensive right now, this does not actually recoup the cost!). Fee subject to change due to incredibly high gas rates right now. Any online quote will show the optional fee and its current pricing. You may also add it after booking by simply requesting the pool be heated any time after making the reservation and at least a few days before check in so we can get it on before you arrive. See our FAQ about heatable pools too.

Each side of the Night Heron sleeps 18 in beds. NO SLEEPER SOFAS

EXTRA FRIDGE
We added an extra fridge in an outside storage area. Pull up, unload. Done. Need a beverage while at the pool Walk over to your fridge without having to trek inside. Full size extra fridge!

BEACH ACCESS
Beach access could not be easier! The 4th Street public beach is right across the street. How do you get there Walk out the door, go to to the stop light in front of the property, push button, and cross the street! No crossing random places or getting yelled at for short cutting through private property!

PARKING
There is available onsite parking for 4 cars per side (2 under the side, 2 in front of the side).

WIFI/INTERNET
YES! We have an awesome Eero mesh network to ensure excellent wifi coverage throughout this spacious home. Spotty coverage is always an issue for big places. Sure internet may work next to the router in the living room, but what about the far reaches of the home! That's why we installed a multi-node mesh network. And what's the internet like It is generally solid and ran > 100Mb down the last test--sufficient for several simultaneous video conference sessions for remote work and education. Internet is, of course, an amenity and subject to service provider outages (and guests troubleshooting it), especially with the havoc the sand and salt wreak on cabling and facilities, no more so than any other home on the beach though, and likely better since its close in and new construction!

SOAPS, TOWELS, COFFEE, GRILLS ETC ETC
As with most beach homes in the area, the local mgt co provide what they call a starter supply of soaps, toilet paper, and paper towels, etc. Enough for the first night to get you going! Please plan to bring or purchase additional supplies, and any cleaning or pantry supplies you may need, or to make a quick run to the store (or have it delivered!). You will want to bring beach towels or beach chairs as well. Because mgt cos will not generally support them, grills are not provided, though they are sometimes inherited from prior guests: your mileage may vary on this, and we usually assess and then go snag a small charcoal kettle when we come down ourselves. Also of note: at many locations, you may find the bunk beds (and certain other beds) are not fully made--instead a bedding pack is provided. This is a common practice for the local management companies, which is both green (if the bedding is not used, it doesn't have to be laundered) AND more sanitary--housekeeping does not have to crawl on the bunks and so on to make the beds. Also also... all our homes have both drip coffee makers and Keurigs as well.

    Night Heron was great! Thank you! There wasn't a thing that we would change.... well maybe the stairs bc my kids always forgot something on the second floor and it was faster for me to go get instead of sending them hahaha! It was perfect! Thank you for having us!

    Night Heron was perfect for our family and the location was great! The house was beautiful and clean. I always notice when the ceiling fans are clean so I would say the cleaners did a good job. The pool was perfect. We really loved relaxing in the pool area. We all said at some point we would stay at this house again.

    It was the best place for a friends and family gathering. Very close to many eating places, the beach was across the street and the house was very clean and extremely well kept by the owners. Definitely recommend a larger group.

    Great location, great house, exactly as described. Sitting downstairs under the house hanging out and people watching was very entertaining. [? Glad you had a great time, and happy to hear you will be back next year! Reach out when ready to lock that in--Night Heron goes way early--and if you have any suggestions, I am always happy to hear those too (kudos are lovely as well ?). Thanks again!]

    We had a great stay at Night Heron West. The weather couldn't have been better. We arrived on Tuesday and left on Sunday, and I didn't see a cloud in the sky the whole time! The house was as good as it was last year. We had 11 people staying there and all were impressed with the accommodations.... it was awesome. Thank you for everything, it's been a pleasure dealing with you. [? Awesome is... awesome!! Thanks for coming back! Glad you all had perfect weather, and accommodations! Here for you if you need anything, have suggestions, or when the gang decides on the dates for the next return trip! ?]

    The house was even more beautiful than the pictures. There was plenty of seating in the living area for the 10 of us and the kitchen was large enough for several cooks in the kitchen at any given time. The kitchen was very well stocked and the only thing we needed but was not supplied was pot holders. We also had the pool heated which we enjoyed. We would definitely rent again. [??? Thanks Charles! Glad you all had a super time in our home for Thanksgiving, and that everything was perfect for you all! She is definitely a beauty! I love the decor. Really glad you all had a wonderful time, and I would be happy to have you all back anytime! Thanks so much! ?]

    We stayed at Night Heron west and absolutely loved it! We loved having king beds in each room, our own pool, easy beach access, walking distance for everything, and how clean and spacious it was!

    Night Heron has plenty of room and the location is fantastic. Short walk to the beach and the gulf made it easy to get grandkids back and forth. Pool area is a good place to wind down at the end of a busy day. Having the childrens bed rooms on the second floor (adult rooms as well) made it easy for the adults to visit and make a little noise without bothering the littles. Would definitely recomend for families and adult groups as well.
