Blue Heron Beach Resort is a lakefront condo-hotel of 1- and 2-bedroom vacation condos – holiday flats, as UK buyers might call them – in Orlando's Lake Buena Vista area, about 4 miles from the center of Walt Disney World, where short-term rentals (STR) are allowed. The two residential towers sit on Lake Bryan less than a mile from a Disney entrance, and the resort's own rental program can handle bookings for owners.

Yes. Blue Heron is a condo-hotel, so nightly rentals are what it was built for. Owners can place their unit in the on-site rental program, which books it like a hotel room, or rent it through Airbnb, Vrbo or a 3rd-party manager. A short-term rental, or STR, is a home rented to vacationers rather than on a long-term lease.
Location is the draw here: the resort is less than a mile from a Disney entrance and close to SeaWorld, Disney Springs and the Lake Buena Vista restaurants, which keeps the condos in demand with guests.
Up to 6 months a year. The condos cannot be used as a primary residence. If the on-site rental program manages your unit, it may set a lower limit. Contact us for current terms. See our list of resorts by maximum owner usage to compare.
Blue Heron has an on-site rental program, and owners may also use a 3rd-party manager or self-manage. Additional fees or amenity restrictions may apply if you go outside the on-site program, so ask about current policies before choosing a manager.

The condos are in two mid-rise towers with elevators, built in 2006 and 2007. One-bedroom suites have about 800 square feet and two-bedroom suites about 1,080 to 1,170 square feet, and every suite has two bathrooms. Units come with a full-size kitchen, a washer and dryer and a private balcony, many overlooking the pool and Lake Bryan, and some upper floors look toward the Disney fireworks.
Blue Heron keeps on-site amenities simple, since many restaurants and shops are within walking distance. The focus is the pool deck and the lakefront on Lake Bryan, with fishing docks and a kayak launch.
Amenity access, hours and fees are set by the resort and can change. Contact us to confirm current terms before you buy.
