We loved this home, we all agreed if we met in the tampa srea again we'd stay here again, great layout and location!Owners were nice and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable.
Our family of seven had an unforgettable getaway at this stunning home. The property was not only beautifully decorated but also meticulously clean, creating a welcoming atmosphere right from the start. Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, we enjoyed the serene surroundings, where friendly neighbors added to the charm of the area. The highlight of our days was splashing in the inviting pool and exploring the nearby waters with the kayaks. To our delight, we even spotted a playful dolphin while out on the water! With such an incredible experience, we are already looking forward to our next stay at this lovely home.
We had a short stay for Spring Break. Bigger beaches were busy and traffic was heavy getting to and from. If we had more time we would have liked to explore the area closer to the property as there was a nice park nearby with a small beach area. Property was clean and worked well for our group of 8.
Everything was immaculate, perfectly decorated and extremely well stocked. The icing on the cake was the beautiful view from the dock where you can catch both the sunrise AND sunset. Oh, and watching manatees swim by was also a huge plus! Sadly part of our group wasnât able to make it, but we will definitely be back so they can have a chance to experience it as well.
Rooster next door woke us at 4 each morning, location was far from downtown Tampa Listing shows up as being in Tampa,We did think the house was very nice
We had a wonderful stay!! We really enjoyed the Mr. And Mrs. Crab restaurant!! The home is wonderful our favorite part was the pool and grilling out! We will definitely return again!
Very nice house, perfect size and close to all the activities we wanted to pursue. The pool and pool area were fantastic. Sons in law had a blast fishing off the dock.
We had a great time staying at this spacious, well stocked property. The location was somewhat central for us to take day trips to several amazing beaches and even Magic Kingdom. The kids loved swimming in the pool and fishing off the dock.
This place was exactly as shown in the website and the attention to detail with all the extras was exceptional. Joe was an excellent host. We would highly recommend this place .
Clean, had everything and anything that is needed in a home, very open interior so we had plenty of room for the 6 of us. We enjoyed being able to play in the pool too.
We loved our stay in Ruskin at the Blue Herron House! We saw several manatee and had some dolphin too, right from the dock. Ruskin is a short drive to Tampa and close to Bradenton and Sarasota for the best beaches! The house is clean and well maintained and Ruby was very quick to respond to any communication. Canât wait for our next stay!
It felt like home as soon as we walked in the door. It was perfect for our family of 6 and we especially enjoyed the private pool, views and quiet neighborhood.
While we were tucked away in our own space, we were still close enough to travel to several places to eat and visit different beaches.
Ruby's communication was on point with quick responses and made check in/out easy and helped make our vacation perfect.
The house is large and very comfortable.
We spent most of our time on the lanai, in the pool or on the canal.
Very relaxing holiday in a quiet neighborhood. The house is very well stocked. No need to buy spices condiments or cleaning products
Hi! Our love of travel and staying in Airbnbâs has inspired us to invest in one of our own. Check out The Blue Heron, our vacation home and first short term rental. Weâve added everything that we love and need while traveling with our family. We hope you will consider us as guests as well as hosts! Cheers!
We fell in love with the view! We love to fish off the dock and watch the manatees and dolphins swim by. Our son's very first catch was just last Summer off the dock! The home is large enough for 8 guests and the pool is huge. The property was big enough to add a large fire pit, because who doesnât like to make sâmores?! The location is perfect! You can get anywhere from Anna Maria Island to Disney within an hour or so!
Heated pool, Kayak, paddleboard, fishing gear, all provided at no extra charge! You don't have to leave the property to enjoy these either; we have a private dock!
