Annual Family Trip

This is the easiest stay in Destin! The location is amazing. Right in the center of everything. The rooms were big as well as the bathrooms. Perfect for our family. The kitchen helped for quick lunches and two nights of dinner. Walking distance to Pompano Joe's, Alvin's is right across the street, beach access is at the corner, and the pool is right there. It could not get any easier. Can't wait to come back!

Great unit

Great first floor corner unit. Spacious and wel equipped. Nice decor. Great location. Easy beach access. Caution to those who have trouble with stairs - beach may be out of the question for you. All nearby beach access requires a flight + of stairs. So nice they provided beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler. Would recommend .

Beautiful and Clean

Janet's condo is so beautiful and in a great location. Just cross the street and you are at beach access. There's a nice beach shop right next store to grab souvenirs or any beach gear you may need. The condo is amazing. It's all updated and all the furnishings are top notch. Beds are comfortable, plenty of beach and bath towels. We also had a nice welcome package with snacks and drinks and a bottle of wine. It was so nice to see that after flying all day. I would highly recommend renting this condo. Trust me you won't be disappointed. Thanks again Janet 😊

Way more than I could have imagined.

Emerald Waters condo is my favorite place to stay when when are in Miramar Beach area! This is my 4th time. The beach is right across the street. Alvin's Island is next door. It is quiet but close to everything. However, we have gone from 2 to 7. Those accommodations were easy for this condo. The decor was lovely, the arrangements of everything were lovely. Everything was clean. There were plenty of towels. We had a great experience here. Will def be coming back!

Awesome condo, pool, hot tub, and close to the beach

Loved being on the first floor. Easy access to the pool and hot tub that were nicely heated. The beach access door was right across the street. There's also a beach chair/umbrella rental on the beach that's convenient. They also rent kayaks and paddle boards and sell snow cones. The 3 bedroom units like this are much bigger and have a larger patio than the other units. Great new hard surface flooring. They did a great job furnishing the place as well. Lots of sand toys, beach chairs, and a couple body boards in the condo for use. We'd highly recommend this condo for vacation.

Beautiful condo in a perfect location!

Emerald Waters #101 was beyond our high expectations! The condo is beautifully decorated, has a great layout, and is in a prime location. We traveled with 8: 4 adults and 4 kids...there was room for all of us! The condo is a bottom floor corner unit. The pool is right outside the back patio, and the beach is across the street. Some "extras" we appreciated were a well-stocked kitchen, extra beach towels and chairs, and extra laundry detergent, The kids especially loved the snacks and drinks left for us as a welcoming gift. Janet is easy to work with and has done a wonderful job a creating a top-notch vacation home!

Wow! This condo is like walking into the pages of a magazine...beautiful!

Our family, along with another family, spent Spring Break here and it was one of the best, if not THE best vacations we have ever been on! The condo is absolutely beautiful and the location to the beach is perfect! The Johnson's provided beach chairs, an umbrella, beach towels, and an ice chest. We used these everyday when we walked the short 300 feet to the private beach. Janet was very helpful in recommending restaurants & the shopping favorites of the locals. It was wonderful to be able to come back after a long day at the beach or sightseeing to the spacious & relaxed setting this condo offers. Having 5 women in our group we especially enjoyed the fact that each room has it's own full bathroom! I can not tell you enough what an amazing place this is and how accommodating the owners are from the very beginning through the end. If you choose to stay here for your next vacation l promise you will have no regrets!

Perfect Family Condo

Our family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our 5 day stay at Emerald Waters 101. The condo was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The photos are an exact representation of its current condition. It is an extra plus that each bedroom has its own bath. One bedroom has a single bunk bed with a double trundle bed. It may not be as comfortable for a taller adult but good for children. The beach access was right across the street from the condo. This made it easy to go to and from the beach. It is located on the corner of the building adjacent to the street. There was the occasional loud car/truck that cruised by. The condo was perfect for us and our adult children and spouses. It would be great for a family with young children as well.
