In love with Destin
We absolutely loved this neighborhood and its amenities! This home was steps from the main pool and just a quick walk to the beach pavilion, which was great! House was clean and spacious. We will book in this neighborhood again!

Loved it!
The house was clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. Had all the amenities we needed for cooking at the house. There was plenty of space for 4 adults and 5 kids. The pool is just steps away and so convenient. The walk to the beach access is easy, mostly walking on sidewalk through the neighborhood and then through a parking lot so don’t have to worry about busy streets. Kenny D’s is walking distance for some good food. Plenty of things to see and do on Gulf Drive (shopping, ice cream, coffee shop, restaurants) as well as easy access to other shopping and grocery, etc. on the main highway. Would 100% stay here again!

Excellent Location / Property
Easy and quick check in. Received all door/gate codes as described and was able to enter the Emerald Shores community and the property with no hassle.
Property was just as depicted in the photos. Plenty
of space for everyone to relax and enjoy their vacation without feeling cramped or over shadowed.
Upstairs sitting room and outdoor balcony area very comfortable and relaxing with a nice view.
Bedrooms and bathrooms spacious, no waiting on the bathroom to become available. Downstairs bathroom with shower was nice to have.
Community pool conveniently located in front of property and was nice to have.
Beach Pavillion was a hit. Short walk from property, maybe 5 to 7 minutes at most, and easy to get to and access.
Staffing with La Dolce Vita for beach gear rentals were excellent. Very approachable, friendly and knowledgeable of the area.The drink concession at pavillion was perfect for those hot days during our stay.
Would happily recommend to others and would be happy to stay here there again.

Super nice house!!
We travel to Miramar every year and have stayed at emerald shores before, but this house beat the first forsure! It was updated, super clean and even though we were at the beach it was homey. Short walk to the beach and directly next to the pool which was very nice for our littles we had with us! If i had a question Martin was quick to answer and went above and beyond for us! We will definitely try to book this on our next trip down!!! :-) you won’t regret it!

Great Find
We absolutely loved this house and neighborhood. The walk to the beach was super easy plus they have a shuttle if you are feeling a little sluggish from the Florida Heat! The linens were definitely a favorite of mine and the house was an awesome size for the six of us. The girls could hang out in the second floor living room if they did not want to be with the adults. This house is right next to the pool so I don't think there is a better location in the neighborhood!

Beautiful home, gorgeous decor and Perfect location
This was a beautiful beach house, It was decorated beautifully. In a perfect location. A short walk to the beach, Close to Kenny D’s, bar and grill. The entrance to our beach access had bathrooms, outside showers and a bar. Our family has been to Destin many times. And my kids voted this their favorite place to stay. We had a question for the property owner on our first day so I sent him a message and he immediately called us back and answered all of our questions. I would highly recommend this home.
