Good location but multiple disruptions. We were left without a fridge for over two days, water stopped working in our condo, and one pool was closed for several days of our stay (no fault of the resort). Staff worked quickly to help us but it just felt like one thing after another was going wrong.

Summer Vacation

The property is very nice,,,just as described. The ice maker on the fridge ( new and very nice) was prone to freezing up. That wasn't a problem...as we used the ice trays. We loved everything about it...especially that it is SO close to beach access...we never used the elevators. We could run back to the condo from the beach in just a couple minutes. Very nice place.

Loved the location!

We loved the location on the Gulf! It was close to many restaurants and activities. The condo was just the right size for us and very well stocked. Most of all, the owner worked with us and the management company, Real Joy Vacation Rentals were the best we have ever experienced. They responded quickly to our questions and requests and they urged us to let them know if we needed anything else.

Great location for a vacation on the beach

The condo was exactly as presented. Spacious, comfortable, easy access to the stairs which meant avoiding always taking the elevator to the beach or pool. The view from inside or from the balcony was just what we wanted… the beach and water. Plus the sunsets were beautiful!

Checking in was a nightmare, everything else was clean except there was a dirty Q Tip In the tracks beneath the mirror in the bedroom. We accidentally broke a lamp but the owners were very understanding and they were very helpful throughout the trip. The condo was very nice and located close to everything we like to do.

We enjoy staying at Emerald Beach, as this is our third stay there. I would suggest putting another lock on the door, so that children can’t easily open the door. This unit has nice appliance and cooking utensils that you may need. Also, this unit is located on 2nd floor and near elevator and stairs which makes it easy access.

Islandtime

This was a very nice place it smelled really clean when we walked in! Great location and the view was beautiful! It was a little tricky finding the room at first because it was on the Wyndham side not Emerald Beach side. We found it and Raya was amazing she helped too! I do have two suggestions that might help the next person change the toilet out for a higher one for older people and maybe keep a small vacuum for the hard floors ( for someone like me I lose a lot of hair so the vacuum would have been great) Overall a great getaway and we will stay there again in the future!

Perfect condo

Condo was just as described. I read the reviews and all said it was clean. That was most important to me and it was very clean, smelled nice, furniture was clean and in good shape, bed was perfect and didn’t have any odors… another thing I’m picky about. Also loved that it was on the second floor. We had a perfect view of the ocean and we didn’t have to wait on the elevator. The only thing I would change is to add a Keurig coffee maker instead of or in addition to the regular coffee machine.

Go with leather…

Living room furniture needs replacing as well as bar stools. Cloth/fabric couch and recliner are worn out! Everything else in the condo was ok…nice kitchen appliances, beds were pretty good and nice bed pillows. So why allow the living room furniture to be so bad. There was a smell…I’m thinking it was the dingy fabric furniture and the bar stools. The furniture on the balcony needs cleaning. We were there for only 2 nights and I got a pretty good deal so…

Summer Vacay

Overall it was an enjoyable stay. Reasons I would not choose to stay here again include the parking situation and cleanliness of the condo. The whole parking across the street and then using an elevator to get to the skybridge, walk across to then take another elevator to the condo was a bit of a task given not all elevators were operating. Upon checking in the condo had a musty odor, almost as though it had been smoked in, and just overall it didnt "feel" the cleanest. Nothing we were unable to fix with a little lysol and febreeze though! Did i enjoy my stay? Of course. Was the view from the balcony and the beach access fantastic? Definitely. I would not seek out intentionally staying here again, but for the price and location it was overall a great rental.
