Check in was a little different than I'm used, too. But I jave no complaints about our stay. The view of the beach from our room was absolutely beautiful, as well as everything else.

Nice older property on beach. Clean, spacious rooms. Be aware there are no elevators and views of ocean cannot be seen from ground level. I was fortunate to be able to change room from ground level to second floor upon arrival. Wish I had time to spend more than one night.

I really appreciated the early check in. The staff is very friendly and the rooms are clean. You can walk right out the back door to the ocean. Every room is ocean view. It is conveniently located to several various food and ice cream places. The only thing that I found odd was there was no handsoap provided in the bathroom. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay and I will stay there again.

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.

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.
