Family friendly "gem" of a home just min away from Navarre and Pensacola Beaches

Leave your day-to-day behind! We want you to feel at home in our Emerald Cottage! Minutes from Gulf Breeze Zoo, amazing restaurants, fresh seafood, and white, sandy beaches make this the perfect place to stay. Approx. 8 miles to Navarre beach and 15 miles to Pensacola Beach! Plenty of space to hang out indoors and outdoors. Enjoy the private backyard and covered patio at your home away from home. Busy day at the beach? Come back to cool off and stretch out in your own private space between the fun. There is plenty to do when you venture out and plenty of space to relax and enjoy when you return. The Emerald Cottage is a real gem and we hope you enjoy your stay enough to share it with family and friends and come back every time you return to the Emerald Coast. (FYI for guests: A Ring doorbell camera does monitor the front porch area of the home.)
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

Gulf Breeze Gem

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home. The neighborhood is quiet and set back from the main highway, yet conveniently close to the beach and stores. The furnishings and amenities were clean and in great shape. The owner was very responsive to our inquiries while we were in the home. Everything was just as advertised.

Amenities galore!

The house was nice and spacious. Very well kept. We appreciated all of the amenities such as board games, books, beach supplies, spices for cooking and a fully stocked linen closet. We typically have to buy things for home rentals but it wasnt necessary with this home. I definitely recommend this home for anyone looking for a great home in a quiet neighborhood.

Above & Beyond

The host’s were beyond gracious, very hospitable and kind. They responded quickly to all our communication about the place. They even went out there way to order a blender for us the next day that we desperately needed for my husband’s medication. Their place was very clean and very comfy. Love loved the place and the hosts.

Great Stay!

My stay was perfect. My guest and I enjoyed ourselves. The house was very clean. It was stocked with everything we needed. There was more than enough towels. The kitchen was stocked with utensils, plates, cups, pots, etc. The backyard is very big. I would definitely recommend staying here. 10/10!

Wonderful home!!

Very clean & well supplied home! The kitchen had every little thing I needed for my stay. The dining table was big a beautiful. The backyard even was so beautiful & well maintained. I didn't bring my children for this stay, but they would have had a wonderful time with the cabinet of games & beach supplies. And especially for little kids it was relatively baby proofed with minimal delicate decor. Overall a wonderful stay!
