We've rented luxury homes all over the world and this one ranks among the best. The property mgmt team is very helpful and organized. We would definitely book again!

May 2025 Stay

We had seven adults and three children and never felt crowded. The Herron House was just beautiful and the layout is perfect! The detail and extras inside and out are outstanding. It felt like home in that it was stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our visit. Really, the only things we had to supply were groceries and beach towels. Once we arrived and parked, we rode our bikes everywhere we wanted to go. This home is tucked away in beautiful private area, but convenient to everything! It’s just a 3 minute ride by bicycle to the waterpark or to shops and restaurants and a 5 minute walk to the beach by a private entry. We enjoyed the porches, patio and shared pool area as well. The only challenge we had was parking 2 large vehicles (F350 & a Nissan Armada) + a Range Rover. But average sized vehicles would have no problem at all parking. We would love to stay here again.

The Best of the Best!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We’ve stayed in vacation rental houses for decades, and this one is hands down our all time favorite! I loved EVERYTHING about this home. The house layout was perfectly suited for our family of eight adults and one grandchild. The kitchen had every high quality dish, cookware, and utensil you could ever need. The coffee station was an extra special touch. The decor was tastefully done and was very calming. The home’s proximity to the beach and the village center was excellent. The access to beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys and yard games in the garage were so convenient and appreciated (also high quality items). Even the laundry room was amazing 😍! Who would have thought laundry could be so fun to do while vacationing?I’m worried that no other house will measure up when we visit other places in the future. This one set the bar very high. If you are traveling to Jekyll Island, stay here, you won’t regret it.

Wonderfuly Maintained!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time visiting the Georgia coast. So, we were unsure of the best location to visit. After searching different areas this home sold me on trying Jekyll Island. We have stayed in dozens of nice higher end beach properties; this was without a doubt the best maintained and well stocked!! The property feels like home and not like a rental. The kitchen is nicely stocked with items in good condition, extra paper towels, toilet paper...they may be little things, but make a huge difference in the quality of the stay. Not sure we'd visit Jekyll again, but if we did this home would without a doubt be our choice.

Our stay at Heron House was wonderful. The owners of Heron House equipped the house really well. Nothing was over-looked. They kindly included access to beach chairs, bikes, and umbrellas in the garage. The location was great…quick bike ride into Beach Village, but quiet and less-busy part of the island with pretty beaches. We had a very comfortable stay in a beautiful house. Quick walk to beach (keep in mind the walk to the beach includes stairs). Thank you to the owners for their hospitality. We will definitely return.

The Perfect Modern Home close to Beach and Pool

We loved this house so much! Modern, beautifully appointed with really comfortable furniture and a fully equipped Chef’s Kitchen, the house is a very short walk over the dunes to the (best) beach and to the development’s lovely pool. In addition to the ideal location, we loved how everything worked in the house (so rare with rentals!), how we never ran out of knives or serving dishes and that the beds and sofas were so comfy. With parking for 2 cars and 4 bedrooms each with private bath, this house is great for families. Theres a really nice outsoor seating area in the yard and comfy seating on both the front and back (screened) porch. 4 bicycles and other games all included. It was hands-down the best rental experience we’ve ever had - we really didnt want to leave!
