Night Heron West was perfect for our family! It was within walking distance of our favorite restaurants. We were right across from the beach. There was a great pool that the kids loved playing in and it was heated! There were 15 of us and there was plenty of room for all of us! We will definitely stay here again!

What a wonderful vacation!!! We went on a family vacay with 14 people and had plenty of room. The house was fantastic, the pool was fantastic and the beach was only steps away. Everything was in walking distance. It was a great location. We thought we had left a billfold on the way home and called the host and they were so very nice and texted us and called us and went and looked. Best people to deal with. No worries at all. I just can't express how wonderful this whole place was.

🥰 Wonderful, Terri! 14 people with plenty of room, a fantastic pool, and the beach just steps away — that's the west side of Night Heron doing exactly what she's built for! And oh, the billfold scare — so glad the team could jump right on that for you, texting and calling and going to look. That's exactly the kind of "no worries at all" we want you to feel. So glad it turned out fine! I can't thank you enough for such kind words about the whole crew — I'll be sure to share them with my gang. Thank you so much for the 5-star review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Any suggestions for Night Heron? Or ready to gather the 14 again for a return? I'd love to hear from you. Thanks so much for staying in our home! 🏖️

This was also a great property. We rented out Night Heron East along with this for multiple family spring break and Easter. This is short walk to the beach, Restaurants, and stores! The pools were great too. I would highly recommend this property!!

Yay Ray! 🌟 Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We were so happy to host you at Night Heron West for your Spring Break and Easter celebration. 🐰🌷 It sounds like your group had the absolute perfect setup! Booking both the West and East sides of the duplex is such a 'pro move' for multiple families—it lets everyone be neighbors and enjoy the pools together while still having your own private space to retreat to at the end of the day. 🏠↔️🏠 We’re also glad you loved being just a short stroll from the beach and all the local shops and restaurants! 🍔🛍️ We would love to have your crew back again! Just a heads-up: our duplex setups are a top pick for large groups and holiday weeks, and they tend to be the first to go, so definitely don't delay on grabbing your dates for next year! 🗓️💨 See you back on the Gulf soon! 🏖️☀️

Perfect for NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship!

Richards place at the Night Heron West was perfect for our group! The place was spacious, clean and had all the amenities we needed for our week long stay. The location is perfect- close to the beach, easy to walk around to the main stretch of Gulf Shores and is perfectly located near the hotels hosting the Beach Volleyball NCAA tournament. Everyone was able to enjoy their personal space with the spacious bedrooms and individual bathrooms. I highly reccommend this house for large parties looking to have a relaxing stay right next to the beach. We hope to be back next year!

🙏 Thank you Shelley! Happy to hear you had a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stay at our Night Heron and that she worked well for you and your group. DM me, or Bama Beach Houses, if you have any suggestions whatsoever.... or when ready to come back to the Gulf! And while it worked perfectly for your 'large' group, don't forget: we have places for EVEN bigger groups, whether its both sides of Night Heron, for 2x6 bedrooms of awesome, or even bigger than that (and smaller too). Happy to help with whatever you may need! Thanks again for staying in our place!

Awesome house for a friends and family gathering

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.

Loved our stay in Night Heron!

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.
