Casa Grande

Enjoy the good life at Casa Grande, only a few steps to the beach and just across the street from the main pool. There's a great pool view from every porch. This fabulous 5 bedroom, 3-1/2 bath home sleeps 15 and is located in the gated community of Emerald Shores.

Emerald Shores is a family-oriented community with two pools, (one heated in winter), tennis court, basketball, and PRIVATE COMMUNITY BEACH PAVILION WITH RESTROOM FACILITIES! Our trolley runs to the beach daily in the summer months, but you can just walk the 500 feet to the beach easily. This is a great community for your vacation and even better for our snowbird friends long term in the winter- a great escape from the cold weather.

This comfortable home is located on the south end of Emerald Shores where you can walk to several fine restaurants. Enjoy Free WI-FI, local phone calls, cable flat-screen TVs in every room and a surround sound stereo system that has speakers throughout the entire home. We have all tile on the first floor and hardwood on the second floor. No allergies from carpet in this home.

There are 4 covered porches at this home where you can sit, relax and enjoy the Destin life. Grill out on the gas grill or cook inside in the fully equipped kitchen.

Emerald Shores is located centrally in Destin, so you don't have to drive far to go anywhere. Just a couple of miles east to Sandestin where you can dine, play, or chill at the Village of Baytown Wharf. Enjoy shopping, eating and entertainment at nearby Destin Commons or play at the fun water park Big Kahunas. You may choose to spend a day at the Harbor, watching the fishing fleet come in with the catch of the day, take in one of the fine restaurants, or play at night at one of the many night clubs. Numerous golf courses are within a few miles.

The host thought we were coming the following week so needless to say there were things that were not finished up and cleaned well. Despite that we had a fun time with family for the week of Thanksgiving. We only get together once a year due to living in separate locations and the girl love the beach which this house was very close to. All in all it was a good trip.

We had an awesome time. The upstairs bathroom, hallway and closet could use some attention but this property is in a great location, easy walk to the private beach with the community pool right across the street. Also close to shopping and all Destin area attractions. House had plenty of room for our big family. We felt right at home when we walked in the door.

This is a great house for extended family! Plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was well stocked— we cooked a lot for a big family. The walk to the beach was pretty short and we used the beach trolley a few times. The five bedrooms were perfect for us. We had people aged 2 to 82. We felt very blessed to have this home away from home.

It was perfect for our multigenerational family vacation. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The complex was very nice with pools and close beach access. It was a short walk to the beach with a frequent shuttle if needed.

Beautiful House!!

This house was perfect for our group of 14 and 2 dogs! The pool was right across from us, a dollar general within walking distance, our favorite restaurant Kenny D’s in walking distance and the most important piece, the beach was in walking distance! The house had everything we needed to make and serve meals. Outdoor shower to finish getting all the sand off of us and the beach items! The private beach access was amazing! Access to bathrooms and a drink stand all under a pavilion. Also had a shuttle from the house to a short walk to the beach. Over all the house had enough space for 5 kids to play and sleep. The adults had space to group around and hang around outside. Would definitely recommend this house!

Beautiful home steps to the beach

We enjoyed our stay in this home. We had 7 adults and one child and there was plenty of room for all. The pool is steps from the home too. The house was clean and had plenty of cooking pans and utensils. There are places to eat and get coffee with-in walking distance. We had a great time making new memories and hope to come back one day soon.

House was beautiful! There were 6 adults and one baby. We all had plenty of room and enjoyed our stay immensely. There wasn’t anything we needed that wasn’t there. The extra refrigerator, baby gate, and fans were a big help. Loved the location as well! Thanks to the owners for renting to us, we hope to be back next year!

Spring Break Getaway

House was big and beautiful! Fit our needs perfectly. However, a good deep clean is definitely in order. And the mold in the upstairs bathroom should be addressed. That was definitely an eye sore and didn’t help with the musty smell.

The perfect set-up for a large family! With 3 king size beds and plenty of additional beds for our teens, this was the best set-up we have found for our growing family. Al was wonderful to work with, very accommodating and the property itself was clean and convenient. We love Emerald Shores and this house did not disappoint! We will definitely look forward to returning!

Beutiful house in a great neighborhood

This is a beautiful house in a great location however there are a few issues that need to be addressed. The icemaker in the fridge is awful! after a whole night of recycling we woke up to maybe 10-15 ice cubes made so we were constantly buying bags of ice. There were no dish towels or dish rags in the kitchen so we had to use the white hand towels and washcloths from the bathrooms.We had an issue with a broken door knob on the patio door but Al quickly took care of the issue and was very prompt in his replies to all of my questions. Plan on bringing extra toilet paper as there is only one roll in each bathroom to start you off. All in all we had a wonderful time at the house. Perfect location to pool, beach, and restaraunts!

The booking and check-in was easy with the property owner friendly and promptly responsive to all our questions. The house is huge, we had 4-5 families with 11-13 persons and 2 small dogs with plenty of room, kitchen was tight but efficient. The two king master suites were a huge hit but other bedrooms were spacious as well. Convenient to the pool, the beach and overflow parking if you need more than 3 spaces. The gated neighborhood was great (as usual) our 12th year in Emerald Shores. I would recommend this house and hope that stay again.
