The view.
The view... the view, and the view, are the three reasons to love this place. It is right on the beach with beautiful sand dunes in between the hotel and the ocean. Be careful... you will miss the view if you are not on the top floor. Oceanfront doesn't mean ocean view. The room was clean and recently updated. The toilet wax seal was bad and it rocked back and forth but the view made up for all of this.

Blue Heron Overnight
The bathroom was clean, the mattress was comfortable, the deck was great with a good view. We were on the 3rd floor, and there is no elevator. The worst part of the stay was the air freshener or perfume us d in the room. It reeked.

I have known the Blue Heron for many years. I knew it was an older motel. Our room was very clean, The water was so nice and soft. No noise, no disturbances. Ice machine was well accessible. I had reserved a King bed/room and they took my reservation. When we got there, we were told that all of the king rooms/beds were being worked on. Wife asked about a Queen. No, we don't have any. So we went from a King to a double with no apology, refund or anything. We were the 1st to check in that day. I know it was winter time at the beach but they should have told me they had no king rooms available and let me make other arrangements. They should have marked these rooms off as not available when you reserved them. That overrode any good things that I received from them.

The property it self is a bit run down. That being said all the rooms are ocean front and the sound of the waves at night out you right to sleep. I have 2 wants for this property. Black out shades for the front doors and to have them use non toxic cleaning products and detergents for the linens. The fragrance from the bedding made it hard for me to get to sleep.
