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
BEDDING:
Main Floor E Bedroom: King
Main Floor W Bedroom: King
3rd Floor NE Bedroom: King
3rd Floor NW Bedroom: King + Twin Bunk
3rd Floor Middle Bedroom: 2 Twin over Full Bunks (sleeping up to 6)
3rd Floor S Bedroom: King
All bedrooms have private suite bathrooms, except the bunk room. One bedroom's bathroom on each floor has hallway access as well for common use.
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). Additional overflow parking is available a few blocks away if needed and by request.
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.
No smoking please. No pets.

Our trip was awesome, once again! Your property continues to be our favorite place to stay. We're already looking at dates for next year, and are hoping to be able to reserve both sides, if it is within our budget.
Appreciate your team for always being so helpful!

I cannot say enough great things about this home. We have been coming to Gulf Shores on an annual trip for the past 4 years and have been wanting to find the perfect spot to rebook. We finally found it and could not be more excited! The home has amazing finishes, plenty of room for all of the guests, a beautiful private pool, and is SO conveniently located to liquor stores, gift shops, restaurants, and the beach. Everyone in our group had an AMAZING stay and we will certainly be back!

Stayed in both sides of Night Heron: We had an excellent time! Your home was immaculate, very well designed, and convenient. We have a large family and the design of having the two sides connect via the living room was perfect! And who doesn't need 2 kitchens to cook Thanksgiving for that many people :-)

The house had more than enough room for 16 guest. We never felt crowded even when we were all in the kitchen/living room. The communication we easy and everyone was so sweet and helpful. The only thing that was missing was pot holders. We bought some and left for the next guest.

The house was perfect for us! It was pretty quiet within the house so that was nice since we had 6 teenage boys in there. Having the fridge in the car port was very helpful and the house is super nice overall!

This was a great place for our group from Texas and our bikes/ slingshots. Very nice, clean and perfect location. Communication setting this up was EASY!!! Thank you for that. If we had any suggestions or requests, it would be to have access to a gas grill, other than that, PERFECT !!!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a fantastic time! Your house is great and we already have a group of friends that will be booking for next summer if they haven't already. The room layout was perfect for our group and I loved that each space had their own bathroom. The private pool was an awesome addition. Location could not have been better. Kudos by the way on the very accurate description. I was a little nervous when I originally booked because things were under construction and there weren't really pictures. I had been looking for weeks with no luck, then your place popped up. I immediately booked and just put it in God's hands hoping it would turn out ok. And we could not have been happier. While this vacation was a family vacation with our three teenagers, we allowed them to all bring friends and it was ultimately our oldest son's senior trip so it was a really big deal for us that it turn out special. You literally had everything we could have possibly needed. The only thing I could think of might be a few extra blankets. The older kids said maybe curtains in the bedrooms so they could sleep later lol but definitely not a complaint by any stretch. As for management, they were great. We had two issues with the toilets and both times they were very prompt in responding and making sure we were taken care of immediately. Thank you so much for sharing such an awesome property with us. We hope to be back soon.

We loved the place and the location, it was just what we wanted and may rent again for next year, we are trying to drum up some more people to take the other side too. The place was exactly as described and pictured.

Went for Hangout. We have been going since 2016 and we love it. We are definitely a part of the older Hangout crowd lol. Our stay was great! The home is such a great location for the festival. We only had one question while we were there and they were very responsive through text. We were very happy with everything!

2nd trip to Gulf Shores, 1st stay with Bama Beach Houses. The property was perfect for our large multi-family fall break stay. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our week. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the open floor plan allowed for large family dinners when we felt the desire to cook. The separate ice machine was an amenity I didn’t know I needed but will be a must for all future vacations. The location was excellent- right across the street from the beach with a crosswalk; next to a great little pizza and ice cream shop; within walking distance to a few great breakfast spots; only a short walk to Shrimp Fest! The driveway is also quite large so there is plenty of room to maneuver multiple cars. The owners communicated often and you can tell they truly want you to have the best vacation possible. I would highly recommend this property and operator, and we would certainly book this home again.

This home is right on the strip close to everything! The home looks just like the pictures. My family and I have a wonderful time! It was equipped with all the pots and pans silverware whatever you needed that was a plus for me! The owner are great on communication as well which is always a plus! It was hard to get in the door upon arriving but we figured it out. If you are looking for a home for you and your family 10/10 definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful time in Gulf Shores and this house was perfect for our party of 10. There is plenty of living room space for the adults and kids, spacious bedrooms, bathrooms, and closets. The kitchen comes equipped with first-class appliances, and every gadget you might need to cook a meal. The independent ice-maker really came in handy for the long days at the beach. Our stay was very comfortable and we look forward to staying at the Night Herron again soon. Thank you!

We had a great stay at Night Heron West. Management was easy to get in touch with. They responded quickly. There was plenty of room for our family of 12. The walk to the beach access wasn’t too bad. It’s literally right across the street. My only suggestion would be to bring a thick blanket for at night. There are only two very thin sheets on the beds. They do have a few extra blankets around the house for you to use, but not for every bed. The house is beautiful and we enjoyed staying there very much. The owners even sent us a box of chocolates for renting their home. So sweet! We would definitely recommend staying at Night Heron West.
