Room for improvement

Overall it was fine. Zero water pressure in the kitchen sink. The we had to continuously close the dishwasher to get through a cycle. The ice maker dumped more ice in the bottom of the freezer than in glasses. We just started getting it out of the bottom. The curtains wouldn’t close. For the price we will do something different

Emerald Towers Unit #506

This unit is very dated. Also, the evening of our arrival we found both of the kitchen sinks totally stopped up, as well as the Master bathroom tub. A plumber came about 8:30 pm and successfully unstopped all of them. Also, one suggestion is to remove the carpet and switch to tile...much cleaner. Otherwise, we all enjoyed our stay very much!

A few things off

The condo was clean. We were never able to connect to the Wi-Fi. The cold water in the kitchen didn’t work, nor did the ice maker. The patio furniture was quite lacking.

Wonderful location....BUT

Love the location and the beach was beautiful. It was a nice big condo plenty of room for six adults. However, one bathroom overflowed and didn't work well the whole stay. Also, the icemaker DID NOT make ice. Living room recliners were broken. Other than those issues we DID enjoy our stay. Maybe these issues will be resolved soon.

Great Condo that needs TLC

There is carpet in the living room and bedrooms…the carpet had stains which look gross. Two of the bathrooms had recessed light fixtures that were hanging. One of the bathrooms had mildew and mold. The drywall by the balcony door was crumbling off. The bottom shelf on the refrigerator door was cracked and unusable. There was a piece of food under the loveseat. The floor to ceiling mirror on the wall in the entrance area was cracked and taped. Just a good amount of little things that need to be fixed and cleaned. Once you get over that stuff, the condo was fine. The layout is good and the overall property is a great place to stay.

Alternate vacation site

We were originally headed to Marathon to a house but hurricane Ian left it in need of repair so we scrambled, 24 hours before we were to leave Ohio, to find another place to stay. The condo is HUGE but in dire need of substantial cleaning and repairs. I’d NEVER stay in 506 again unless it has undergone thorough cleaning and repairs. Beautiful location. Beautiful building. Just this unit was not worth what we paid.

Our view was beautiful but…

Great location, beautiful view and it’s a big corner unit! It was great that each bdrm has its own bathroom. However, as soon as you walk in you can smell mold. Which caused us stuffy noses every morning. The middle shower is cover in mold (ceiling and the tile grout).That same shower was not cleaned properly.It had long black hairs on the shower walls and drain was full of the same black hair from previous guest. In the back bathroom there was a used washcloth that was left from previous owner. Disgusting!We also had a hard time getting dishwasher to work.After slamming the door it locked and we’re able to use it. It would also be a good idea to bring your own TP(what they provide is harsh). I think the unit could use some updates and a better cleaning person.

Front desk staff is great. Management wasn't pleasant to deal with.

We set up our chairs and baby tent and was asked to move everything 6 inches into the public beach side because we were over the line. I would really encourage the HOA to re-evaluate their chair and beach policy. One day the chairs were set up about 25 yards from the water and the second row was 30 yards which left no room for other paid guest to put their stuff except for the public beach area which is very small. All of the rented chairs were empty because the paid guest didn't want to pay $30.00 a day for a chair and umbrella after paying that much to rent a condo for a week. There was mold in the master bathroom bath tub from not being cleaned in what appeared to be a long time.

Beautiful Views, Great Vacation

Overall we loved this condo. The kitchen, washer/dryer, appliances, spaciousness and comfort of living areas were better than we expected. We loved the ease of entering upon arrival and the easy access to the beach, the elevators were conveniently located, the pool area more than adequate and well maintained. There are however a few things for the owners to address— hopefully before we plan another vacation in Destin. The king size bed in the master bedroom needs to be replaced. It was very soft and sunk in a bit in the middle. I slept well the entire week but my husband struggled with it and said he would definitely come back to this unit if they replaced the mattress. A couple of things for the owners awareness... the master bath toilet runs frequently, though we weren't inconvenienced by it. My husband tried to fix it but couldn't. The reclining loveseat was broken, which meant not using them as recliners. Also, the curtains, (or rather the hanging mechanisms) are broken in various places so it all looks odd when closed. Oh, and the wifi was weak and kept dropping. Thank you for such an enjoyable vacation.
