10/10 Exceptional

It was amazing. Clean room with a nice balcony view.
Yongchel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My stay was amazing. The view from my room was great. The room was very clean up on arrival. It was pretty quiet the whole time and the pool was very clean. Beach access was great didn't have to go over and dunes just right out to the ocean. Overall my stay was great and I would recommend staying at the Blue Heron

8/10 Very good

Great inexpensive short term beach stay location!

Great place to stay for a single night. Room was big and clean. Back door opened directly to beach access. Very friendly staff and very accommodating. Relatively quiet though being on the first floor meant we heard our neighbors walking above us. But other than that would highly recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and price. Staff was very friendly. Could use some updates but, I will come back.
Rena, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Beachfront budget bliss

The Blue Heron is cool for a quick getaway. It isn’t the fanciest spot, but it is oceanfront, and you can’t beat the view looking right out on the ocean from the top floor. It wasn’t the cleanest, but it was decent enough for a couple of nights. Huge perk that it was pet friendly. If you want to hit the beach with your pup on a budget, this is the place to do it!
Lindsey, 2-night trip

A great little motel on the beach

It was a nice location on the beach. We went for a car show and it was a perfect location. Nothing fancy but solid place to stay for a night or two. Friendly staff!

Will Return.

This place seems to have been recently renovated. Very spacious rooms!! Will return. The only this is that we were on the 1st floor and there was not a view like it said but, I not there for the view. 🤗🤗

Very nice older hotel that is in the process of being up dated. They are doing a great job. Great view from 3rd floor rooms. Beds are very comfortable and rooms a quiet.

I’ve stayed here before over 10 yrs ago- always satisfied- indoor pool clean - rooms clean - freshly painted! ❤️
Kelly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place was awesome had everything you need for a beach trip the only down side was the fact that the pools was closed for maintenance but honestly i came for the ocean not a pool... Also in grate location shops restaurants and the Pier all with in walking distance and you honestly cant ask for a better view......
Mark, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Upon arrival we discovered hair in the shower. The provided hair dryer was broken and kept tripping the electric breaker. There was no housekeeping service during our stay and we only started out with 2 washcloths. You have to go to the front office across the parking lot to get refresh on toiletries and towels. The bright spot of this hotel is being ocean front.

Sunrise mornings, waves crashing all night... doesn't get much better. Sufficiently stocked kitchen if you want to eat in.
Paul, 3-night trip

The indoor pool and hotub was definitely a game changer. The motel is slowly deteriorating and you see that in places but it had no bearing on the quality of our stay. I will definitely be coming back.
Jean P, 2-night trip

Blue Heron's location was convenient, good price, staff was pleasant, room was very clean and beach front. Not the newest hotel but that was part of the charm. We would go back again.
