Great condo, would definitely stay again.
We have stayed in this neighborhood several times and I do believe we liked this house the best so far. The house is very clean and the furniture is nice and they had everything you could possibly think of as far as cookware. They last house we stayed in didn't even have potholders! The only downside is when you have a house with that many people in it the fridge isn't really big enough to put drinks in with the amount of food. This house layout doesn't really have space for a second fridge but having like a large cooler you could put ice in on the front porch for drinks would be really a nice touch. That's not a complaint, I have no complaints, just a small suggestion. Owner is super nice and accommodating and very communicative. Enjoy your stay, we will be back!

Why they chose this property

We came and rented a home in the gated Emerald Shores neighborhood and fell in love with it. Having two pools, a tennis court, a basketball court and the private beach pavilion with the restrooms and showers at the most beautiful beach in the United States ... what more could you ask for? So when this 5 bedroom home became available on the market for sale, right by the main pool, we jumped on it! After a total remodel, we are loving our vacation home and enjoying the time we are able to spend in it as a family.

What makes this property unique

Our neighborhood has its own private, deeded beach with one of the only private beach pavilions (Only for owner's and guests. Code needed for gates & restrooms) with bathrooms, showers, picnic tables, shade and seasonal snack bar. Having the restrooms right there on the beach is a huge benefit so that you don't have to leave and go clear back to your vacation rental. The beach is very comparable to those we have been to in Cancun, Hawaii, Cayman Islands and the USVI. We love that in Florida you do not need a passport and you do not have to struggle with a huge time change, high cost of airfare and with foods or cultures you are not familiar with. The home is so close to the beach it allows us to walk (5-10 mins.) and we never have to worry about finding parking. Also you are able to head back for a break from the sun and sand and then return again hassle free, a great benefit for those of us traveling with kids or elderly family members.
