Great stay!
We had a great stay at this condo. The grandparents stayed at the condo to use the pool and chill while we hit the parks with the kids. The location was great - close to everything. We watched the fireworks from the parks at the balcony by the elevators. The room is right by the elevators, which was nice and easy to get our luggage in and out. We were comfortable in the condo. It could use some updating, but I think the price was a great value and we cared more about location and amenities like the pool/hot tub. The views were great from the balcony. The pool was heated so was still great on our cooler days. Would definitely stay again!

Dirty and dated
Upon check in as we were unpacking we realized that the place was not very clean. There were stains in the fridge, food left in the oven and microwave, and a thick layer of dust on the ceiling fans (we didn’t dare turn them on). When confronting the host on these issues she was rude and didn’t believe me, claiming that I had made it up in order to simply get a refund. We are owners of a STVR and would never do such a thing. Needless to say, we checked out early. We do not recommend this condo.

This is the worst guest I had. You can see from her rating. All the beauty and space plus any offer didn't make her happy. She needs a place for $1000 per night. We had many guest through the years but none like her. Sometimes its better not to rent to these travelers. I alway respond. Guest may not hear what they want simply because we respond through people present at the property. We strive to make our guest happy so they will come again. This guest was refunded $250 on a booking that was in non refundable prepaid period. We offered to go check and clean the unit from the time she complaint and she refused. We offered again a day later and she refused. There is a front desk that do maintenance for the condo as well

Good Value, Full Access to Resort Amenities.
Pros: For the price this is a good value stay. Quiet rooms, spacious balcony, and great view. Full access to pool and other resort amenities. A few cons: The Oven in the kitchen does not get up to the specified temperature. I was unable to bake anything. The bunk-bed room is quite small and right next to the entrance, not ideal for little children. Saw a couple little critters here and there nothing substantial.

Everything is as advertised. There are pictures of everything. If the oven doesn't work, he never reported any problem otherwise it would have been fixed or replace. I think this condo has a new stove with oven

Convenient for theme parks without Disney pricing
We were there for theme parks so didn’t spend a lot of time on site. Comfy beds, nice bathrooms with necessities, and kitchen facilities for quick breakfasts. 2 bedrooms with a 3rd area containing a bunk bed without a door or curtain so kinda weird and loud for those people. Only complaint is the tile flooring needs a good mopping between renters. Great 12th floor view facing east overlooking a lake so wonderful sunrises to start a day. The complex has a big heated pool and poolside bar but a way too small hot tub. Parking was ample and convenient. Easy to get to many restaurants, Disney World compound, souvenir shops and the freeway. 10-15 minute drive to Disney parking and 20 minutes to Universal.

Nice but Worn
Property location was wonderful. Host was very friendly. Place was clean for the most part, although worn and dated. Oven temp really inaccurate so food took long time to cook. No supplies such as kitchen garbage bags. Grateful for coffee, dishwasher detergent, dish soap, shampoo, body wash and hand soap. Regrettably main pool closed along with pier to lake - pool was one of the reasons we booked this location

Fantastic stay in Blue Heron Beach Resort!
Great apartment - it is huge! There were 4 of us, but it can easily fit 8 people, as there is an area off the entrance hall with bunk-beds, and a sofa-bed in the living area. Having 2 full bathrooms is such a bonus! The beds were so comfortable - we all slept really well! We agree with some other reviews that the furnishings are a little dated, but it doesn't matter - it's just somewhere to sleep, have breakfast and chill out for a while in the afternoons before going out for dinner. The nice big balcony, overlooking Lake Bryan, faces east, so a good place to see beautiful sunrises! There is a small gym in the building, but we didn't use it. We did go to the pool, which is lovely, and seemed to be very quiet most of the time. We visited the crazy golf place next door one evening, which was fun. There is a Starbucks and a Subway just a couple of minute's walk from the apartment block, MacDonalds and Walgreens across the road, and it's a short drive to several supermarkets, and less than 5 minutes drive to the Orlando Outlet Mall. The location could hardly be better for all the attractions - 5 minute drive to Disney Springs, 10 minutes to Epcot, less than 15 to the other Disney parks, and no more than 20 to Universal Studios. We would 100% stay here again, and thoroughly recommend it! Many thanks to the owners and management!

Blue Heron is a perfect condo vacation! Super clean and extremely friendly staff. Any issues inside your condo are repaired immediately! My only complaint is rude and inconsiderate vacationers who don’t care how much noise they make on their condo balcony at all hours! There are posted quiet hours. A phone call to the Blue Heron Staff does quiet them down.

Great room. Superb view.
Overall excellent. Great location. Nice place. Our only complaint was the lack of hot water to fill the incredible tub. Since we were busy we did not ask the manager about it. It's likely they have taken care of this, but it might be worth asking in advance if you plan to use the jetted tub. Overall excellent.

Convenient location for traveling to WDW and US via Uber. Pictures with fireworks are somewhat misleading as the balcony to view the fireworks is not part of the condo but next to the elevator. Condo had everything we needed but we did spend most of our time at the parks.

This place was great, looked great, was half the price of other condos, and we never drove more than 15 minutes to get to anything. My one and only complaint is that the bed is very low quality, it’s very hard/springy and both me and my wife had sore backs by the end of the week.
