Reef and Reel could not have been more perfect for our first family vacation to the beach! The listing was so accurate. The house was so close to the beach and we loved watching the ocean from the balcony while we drank coffee. We even saw dolphins swimming one morning from the balcony - so cool! The house was clean and decorated so nicely with beachy decor. We especially loved the set up- grandparents stayed on the first level with their own bathroom, while my family of four stayed in the two bedrooms upstairs. Each room having its own bathroom was amazing and access to a washer and dryer was so convenient. The big comfy sectional was also so nice in the living room because of all 6 of us could be seated comfortably (for some reason, that tends to be lacking in other houses we’ve rented or looked at). My kids (2 and 6) loved all of the beach toys provided. It was also fun to take the kids to the pool or down to the lagoon in the evening after a long day at the beach. The owner was so responsive to any needs or questions. We couldn’t stop, and can’t stop talking about how much we loved staying at Reef and Reel and hope to come back again for our next beach vacation!

We all had a wonderful time, everything you need from rest to recreation is all available. Short distance to the lagoon and gulf shoreline. Gas grill was ready and clean. A BIG Time was had

We had a great family vacation. Would stay here again.

We felt lucky to find this place at the last minute for our spring break. Very satisfied with the home. We had everything we needed. For a good time. Loved gulf shores and the beach. Would rent this property again in the future.

Wonderful property, great location! Owners were great to work with.

WeWe loved our stay here - the boardwalk made access to the beach very easy and we also loved the fishing dock in the back of the property. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable and clean. There were lots of chairs and beach items in the storage area that we could use. We were about 3 miles from the main drag which meant the beach itself was not as crowded but it was still convenient to go to restaurants and shopping. We loved this place and I can't say enough good things. We hope to be back soon!

Our family of 4 met up with my sister’s family of three. Overall, the house was great. It was stocked with everything you need to get started on vacation. The location was perfect for beach going because we had private access; however, it is a little further down so you can’t really walk to anything. We enjoyed having the pool to relax in after the beach!

You get the best of both worlds - beach on one side and fishing and the most beautiful views on the other. Our family had the best time relaxing and making the best memories!

House was great and very cozy. Closeness to beach was fantastic!

We stayed for 7 nights and it was a great experience. The house is across the street from the beach but it is very easy to cross and we have 6 kids, 4 of them are little. Our big kids loved the lagoon area and riding bikes that house provided. There were also plenty of beach items and toys as well. The kitchen was very well stocked and we had plenty of room for our family of 10! We had one small issue during our stay, the AC was having a hard time keeping up. I contacted Shannon after-hours and she responded quickly and had someone out the next day. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Great place - kids always have fun

Property was just as described. Being right across the street from the beach was the best part. Owner responded immediately to the one request we had. Garbage disposal didn’t work which caused the sink to back up but no biggie. Would stay again.

Beach, Pool, & Bay Loved it all! Great neighborhood and very nice house!

I would definitely book again, great location, beach access right across the road & the beds were so comfortable!!

HAD EVERYTHING WE NEEDED!! GREAT LOCATION!!

This rental was very clean and nice. I have no complaints and would definitely go back!

My family had a great time! The home is in a great location with access to the lagoon in the back area and a quick, easy walk to the beach and ocean in the front. Home had a cute beach theme, and was comfortable for the 8 of us.

House was great clean and located close to the beach had everything we needed for the beach chairs umbrellas beach toys and two bicycles great stay would rent again

It was a very easy process. House was great. Would rent again.

The only bad thing was Ida was coming thru and had to leave early. Other than that everything was wonderful.

This property is exactly how's it listed. Everything was wonderful. You have the beach, you can go fishing , and pool right there. You don't have to go out far. The hostess was wonderful and on point!! Would definitely rent again and recommend it!!

The stay greatly exceeded our expectations! Everything was perfect for our family!

This is our second year to stay at Reef and Reel. It is the perfect place for our family. The beach is right across the street and the lagoon is at the other end of the property. The house is well-stocked with kitchen items, grill and beach items, etc. The property was clean and is well-maintained. There was plenty of room for my two children, their spouses and two grandchildren. The kids loved riding their bikes to the lagoon and playing and fishing in the lagoon. We will definitely go back to this property next year for our annual family beach trip!

This was one of the best vacations. The property was perfectly located. It was like it's own little world! I have nothing bad to say! The photos in the listed are a littlw outdated (some things are better suxh as nicer furniture. Other things are different such as a house being built across the street) but overall was worth every single penny. Also, my sister forgot her playstation controller and the owner called me and is mailing it to me! Wonderful service.

Easy access to the beach and lagoon. Nice place, kids had a great time! Would definitely rent the property again.

We were beyond satisfied with our stay at Herron Landing! It was beyond what we could have asked for. The owners were a joy to work with. They are very responsive! The neighborhood was very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to go shopping. This house has everything you need and more! We had 6 adults and 3 kids (13, 10, and 8). The adults slept in the 3 bedrooms and the kids made a pallet on the couch. There are two roll away beds but we did not use them. The linens were super clean. It was so nice having three bathrooms. The kitchen is well stocked with your basic cooking needs. We cooked in every night but one. We enjoyed eating out on the front deck. The beach is across the street via a wooden pathway. The beaches were not overly crowded. We enjoyed our days soaking up the sun and in the evenings we enjoyed fishing down at the lagoon. The sunsets are beautiful on the lagoon. The owners have a great supply of beach toys, crab baskets, chairs, fishing poles etc. they also supply some beach chairs. I would definitely recommend bringing a beach wagon to carry your beach items across the street. It was also nice having a washer and dryer. We can’t wait to book another vacation here. Lots of laughter and memories were made by all!

This has to be one of the best properties we've every stayed in. The rooms were so big and having 3 bathrooms was wonderful. Beds were good. Kitchen supplies were really good. Not sure if they were new but they worked well. Not much of a pantry but we did fine. You won't regret staying here. We had 4 adults and 3 kids age 4 to 14. This is an AWESOME house!

Perfect location. Beach was not crowded and right across the street. House was great

In a. Great location. Gives you a like you are at home

The property was everything they say it is, very clean and just a short walk across the street to the beach

Very prompt response from owners and great location.

The property was clean and had so many amenities! We had an awesome time and look forward to renting this place again in the future!
