Heron Cay

"Great location for walking to downtown, the price is expensive for what you get and the conditions of the property. There is no view to the lake because of trees. This property had better days and the rooms were very dirty, lots of dust and even personal items from someone’s else in one of the drawers. The lady doing the breakfast and managing is sweet and nice, but the place needs better maintenance. It was a disappointment for me after reading the good reviews. For me cleanses is number 1 priority and this place fail by far!"

"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Heron Cay Bed and Breakfast. Our host, Margie and her family/staff, welcomed us with amazing warmth. Heron Cay's lovely surroundings with its beautifully decorated interior to the peaceful garden outdoors lends itself to its guests having a most pleasurable time. Our spacious top floor room was outfitted with a wonderfully comfortable king bed, a sitting room with a fold-out couch and of course an en suite bath (which all rooms have). There is an inviting sitting room and dining room for guests to gather and relax. The breakfasts each day were prepared and presented with impressive care. Juice, coffee, nutbreads, fruit platters and specialty egg dishes were served each morning. The Heron Cay is also super close to the Mount Dora downtown area which boasts lots of good restaurants and shops. We look forward to returning!"

"We are central florida locals and just needed a quick getaway for me and my fiancé. Mt Dora is delightful. The location is right next to downtown. The house is amazing, the rooms are gorgeous and comfortable, and the owners are warm and inviting. Pet friendly with well maintained grounds and a pool. Breakfast was delicious! We will definitely visit again. Thanks."

"Amazing overnight stay-cation for me and my teenage daughter to escape the hustle and bustle of Orlando. The room we first picked was quaint and pristine, but the queen bed was a bit to small for both of us to share (my error in judgment). Margie the host was so kind and gracious to let us change rooms since it was not too busy, and even refunded me the difference! The common areas were ornately decorated in Victorian style, and we enjoyed being able to roam about the sitting and dining rooms. The pool was beautiful and clean, and was a tranquil, tropical oasis. We had a wonderful, peaceful night’s sleep, as the beds were comfy and the estate was so quiet, even though set off from a busy road. The only thing to note is that the trees and vegetation is now overgrown so you can’t see the lake from the rooms. Still amazing views nonetheless. In the morning we had a wonderful breakfast with fruit, nut bread, gourmet scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, coffee, and tea in the quaint and beautiful dining room. Start to finish, staying at Heron Cay was a wonderful little getaway. Look forward to returning…worth every penny; highly recommend."
