Great Stay!
We had a great stay at Emerald Palace! We had great communication prior to our trip so we didn't have to stress about details. The location was perfect- right across the street from the beach. We really enjoyed our golf cart rental and took advantage of it with nightly trips for ice cream. The theater room was excellent to entertain kiddos on cooler mornings and the heated pool didn’t disappoint! Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again in the future!

Family Spring Break Trip
My family (8 adults and 10 kids) stayed for a large spring break trip. It was our first time in Destin. Pros: 1. Location! Right across the street from the beach. Short walk to community pool, fitness area, etc. 2. Plenty of space in house- everyone enjoyed having their own rooms and bathrooms. 3. The house was very well stocked with kitchen items and cleaning supplies. 4. Adding the golf cart for the week was a much enjoyed bonus! 5. Everyone enjoyed watching basketball and movies in the theater. Cons: 1. The management company sent me the wrong check in instructions and wrong address which led to a frustrating and stressful check in with such a large group. I expected the company to be much more apologetic, but they acted like it was no big deal. 2. There were a few large bugs in the house (palmetto bugs?). I’m sure that is common but it was unnerving for some of the kids. There were pest plug ins in all the rooms so I’m guessing it was a common problem. 3. Several people from our group ended up with a hot tub rash. I alerted management and cleaners were sent. Following the cleaning, the hot tub smelled like bleach so we avoided it for the rest of the week. 4. The community pool and hot tub were not cared for properly. By the end of the week, they were unusable.

Annual Tilton Family Destin Trip
We have been coming to Destin for 17 years and each trip has been fantastic. This home fit our growing family perfectly! The close proximity to the beach and the Crab Trap was excellent for on foot travel. We didn't have the opportunity to rent the golf cart, but we didn't miss it at all! We cooked just about every meal and the kitchen did not disappoint! Two refrigerators definitely added storage for all our groceries. The theater and air hockey were a nice distraction from inclement weather. The pool was warm and got a lot of use. Plenty of seating kept everyone comfortable. A few disruptions during our week due to the new hot tub being installed weren't an issue because our large group actually helped the crew move furniture to get the tub to it's final resting place quickly and effortlessly! Nice crew by the way! The hot tub soak was fantastic! My only con to this vacation was the fact that the website still had a clear view of the Gulf posted in the pictures and there is a home being built where the view used to be. There are still beautiful views of the Gulf, they're just between buildings now. That said, the vacation was a success and I would 100% stay there again!
