Perfect vacation

This was our 3 rd year renting this property. The location is perfect, close to everything but still private. The private beach and pool are fantastic and the home is in pristine condition and fully stocked. Kim is always available and quick to respond. Looking forward to our stay next year!

Family Vacation

This is a great property and the private beach area within walking distance was perfect. Beach chairs, towels and wagons made daily trips to the ocean easy and enjoyable. Would highly recommend and would return for future trips.

Fabulous location

This was our second year staying at the Heron Hideaway. This property is well maintained and has all the necessary amenities for a perfect vacation. The pool is fantastic and we spent many days on the beach which is a short walk. There are also many excellent restaurants very close by. We are already booked for next year!

Great winter escape

We had a wonderful time staying here. The host provided great check in guidance and all the supplies and amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. It is just 12 houses away from a private beach access with a wonderful beach for long walks and sunrises. The neighborhood is great for walking and close to town for shopping and activities.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Heron Hideaway was a dream come true! It was clean, comfortable and spacious. We really enjoyed the private pool in the backyard and the short walk to the magical secluded neighborhood beach. We really appreciated all of the pool / beach ammentities in the garage and the games / toys in the dining room cabinets for our daughter. Kim is super reliable and responsive. We look forward to working with her again to book another stay at Heron Hideaway in the future :)

Never Disappoints!

We’ve stayed at The Heron House several times and every time it is for the same reason - it’s a fantastic house with everything you could want. Bikes, chairs, a pool, beautiful working kitchen, plenty of linens and towels, so clean, and a responsive and gracious host.

Fabulous vacation home

I cannot praise Kim enough or give a high enough rating to do justice to this property. The house was fully stocked and beautifully decorated. The location of this home is perfect, many fine restaurants and walk to the beach. It was a wonderful vacation! My only problem is that it is not available for next year🙁. Hopefully I get the opportunity to rent this home again. Thank you Kim for this exceptional vacation and your quick response to my questions. Karen V.

Hurray for Heron Hideaway

We had the vacation of a lifetime! Time spent as a couple, with another adult couple and then with our family were all made possible with these accommodations! Everything listed was available. The pool was screened in and right at our fingertips! The beach was a 5 minute walk away. The house itself was very comfortable as well as efficient. If cooking and dining was your choice, then everything was there! If going out we were close to many restaurants. Kim was very responsive and in a timely fashion with answers to any questions we had. Our grandchildren were very sad to leave and we have many memories of our time at Heron Hideaway!

Perfect!

This house had everything we could need and everything in excellent condition. We really felt like welcome guests or the home of good friends. It was a treat to have a short walk to the beach and to enjoy wide open space with very few people there.

Perfect beach stay

The house is clean and neat, but also cosy. It feels like a real family home. Kim was quick to respond to any question or concern. The house is stocked with everything you might want for the beach - bikes, toys, chairs, coolers. There are pool toys too. And the kitchen had everything we needed for a month long stay. It's a great location - a short walk to the beach and a short drive to the town of Vero with its restaurants and shops, Convenient and comfortable!

About the host

Hosted by Kim Davis

Host profile image
We've always envisioned a home near the beach but had not found the perfect location until we came to VB. The town reminds us of what SoCal Beach towns used to be like. Putting your toes in the sand, or floating in the pool and watching the stars... you just can't beat it! We welcome you to come enjoy our hidden oasis...

Why they chose this property

The slower pace of Vero is optimal for busy people who want to get away from the daily grind. The sunshine, fresh salt air and luxurious accommodations keeps our guests coming back.

What makes this property unique

Our home is fully renovated to fit a modern lifestyle. House rules are to lose the shoes and disconnect. But when you need the wifi or to catch a game while you are in the pool (caged to avoid all of the nasty Florida bugs), you can do that too. The best part of the Heron Hideaway is the proximity to the private beach and all that you can do... kayaking, wave boarding, diving, shelling, SUPing, fishing or chilling in a chair with a good read.
