Emerald Key 401 A Spacious Beachfront Corner Unit Directly on the Gulf of Mexico

This immaculate, spacious, three-bedroom, two-bath, condominium rests directly on the Gulf of Mexico in the heart of Orange Beach, Alabama. Emerald Key Unit 401 is a highly desirable, East End, corner unit on the 4th floor with the best views on the beach! From the moment you set your bags down, you are literally minutes away and a short walk down our private boardwalk from having your toes in the sugar white sand and shimmering emerald green waters of the Gulf! Looking to relax? Chill out on the wrap around balcony with a Cup of Joe to view our amazing sunrises and sunsets or have fun watching the dolphins frolic in the surf and if you're lucky, catch a pirate ship sailing by! Prefer to relax by the pool? Our cozy, private beachside pool has a waterfall and a submerged seating ledge that encircles the entire pool.

Because we are a low density (18 unit) building, there are no long lines waiting for an elevator, the pool isn’t crowded and you won’t be fighting for a place to setup down on the beach like you’ll find in the larger complexes – and its quiet, perfect for that romantic getaway. The complex has a large elevator and utility carts to transport your belongings to and from the unit. Stay in one of the nicest, best-kept units in the complex! FREE Unlimited secure, wireless internet service is provided.

This condo is directly across the street from Rouses Market, a local grocer with a huge hot bar and deli for grab on the go meals. Forget something? Immediately to the right of Rouses is a Publix and immediately to the left is a Walmart. Hungry? You'll be hard pressed to find better food anywhere. The number and variety of LOCAL restaurants is exhaustive. We've got a list of some of our favorites in the unit! And, we are only a couple of hundred yards away from COAST-AL, Orange Beach's newest dining, shopping and entertainment complex.

When you arrive, park in our private, gated parking lot. Once inside the unit, you will be welcomed by the cool, white-washed wood look leading into the large, open living area. The spacious living area contains a 65" Samsung LED HDTV with Blue Ray Disc and DVD, as well as, a 220W sound system with a 5-Disc CD player, dual cassette tapes, and am/fm radio. HDTV with all popular channels is provided. The huge, sliding, glass doors provide endless views of the beach. The pictures of this immaculate area speak for themselves.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a Stainless Steel refrigerator/freezer with icemaker, stainless steel dishwasher, microwave oven, oven/stove, toaster, blender, two coffeemakers (Kuerig and traditional drip), mixer, and a raised bar with three bar stools. A dining area with table and 6 chairs is adjacent to the kitchen. All kitchen utensils and dishware are supplied.

Bedroom One contains a queen-sized bed, dresser, night-stand, 32" LED HDTV, DVD, and am/fm clock radio/alarm. A sliding glass door leads to a private balcony. Slide the curtains back and watch the sunrise from bed! With two closets in this room, there is always plenty of closet space.

Bedroom Two contains a queen-sized bed, dresser, night-stand, 32" LED HDTV, DVD, and am/fm clock radio/alarm. The large closet provides plenty of space. This bedroom has a private entry into the hall bathroom.

The Master Bedroom, with walk-in closet, contains a king-size bed, night stand, dresser, 42" Samsung LED HDTV with DVD, additional USB outlets for re-charging your phone, tablets and other personal devices; and an AM/FM clock radio/alarm. The master bath features a garden tub of cultured marble and his and hers sinks. The master bedroom overlooks the Gulf.

The large laundry room contains a full-size stacked washer and dryer, as well as, an additional storage area. A full-size iron and ironing board are also provided.

We hope that our "Happy Place" become YOUR Happy Place!

Great beach vacation

The condo was in a perfect location. Our family enjoyed the pool and being right on the Gulf. The property was clean and well maintained and felt like beingat home. The host was very responsive and had a property guide that answered any question we had. When we come back to Orange Beach we will be sure to book again.

Family stay at Emerald Key 401

Our family’s stay at Emerald Key 401 for spring break was absolutely fantastic! The three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout provided ample space for everyone, and the highlight was definitely the luxurious walk-in shower in the master bedroom - a true indulgence after a day at the beach. The view of the beach and sunrise from our balcony was breathtaking, making every morning feel like a serene paradise. Being able to step out directly onto the beach from the property was incredibly convenient, especially with kids in tow. The property itself was well-maintained and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The easy access to the beach meant we could spend as much time as we wanted soaking up the sun and playing in the waves. Overall, our experience at Emerald Key 401 exceeded our expectations. From the spacious accommodations to the stunning views and convenient beach access, it was the perfect destination for our spring break getaway. We can’t wait to return for another unforgettable vacation!

Great condo in a great location!

We had a great stay in this condo. It is very spacious, well furnished, extremly clean, and the location can't be beat. We traveled with two adults and two teenagers and everyone found the beds very comfortable. The condo complex is very quaint and we met several friendly people. The beach, pool, and parking lot were never crowded. Also, the pictures in the listing are very accurate to how it actually looks. We hope to stay in this condo again in the future and highly recommend it.

First family trip to the beach

This condo was perfect for our first trip to the gulf coast. It has stunning views of the gulf and beach from the wrap around balcony. Spacious on the inside and comes well stocked with kitchenware and appliances. The washer/dryer combo in the furnace room is very convenient. The location is great with 2 grocery stores across the street. We walked over as traffic can be heavy but the crosswalk makes it very safe. There are also souvenir shops, ice creams shops, and a bait and tackle shop in the plazas. The new CoastAL is a short beach or street walk away. This is a new restaurant/bar right on the beach. It is a little pricey but offers great service and views. I can’t recommend this condo more. Working with Troy was great. Communication was very easy and timely. We are looking forward to the next time we can make this trip.

Wonderful location on the Gulf of Mexico!

We had a wonderful stay on Orange Beach. The location is convenient to shopping, groceries, restaurants and ice cream! We had four adults and two little ones and this unit provided all the space we needed. And, we had a view of the gulf from the patio. The kids enjoyed watching the dolphins, pirate ships, helicopters and sand vehicles from the 4th floor. The beach was wonderful and only a short walk from the condo. We also appreciated the new lawn furniture around the pool. Troy was great to work with, always responding to rental questions in a timely fashion.

What a beautiful condo! Our family of 6 had plenty of room. All the comforts of home but with an amazing view of the Gulf. We spent every morning watching dolphins off the balcony. The pool was fantastic. With there only being 18 units, there were plenty of prime spots on the beach. Communication with the owner was easy and he was very thorough with the check in/out instructions.
