Unload at the resort tower on the south side of Front Beach Road. Then park in the attached, gated garage. There are luggage carts and elevators on all garage floors. Take the 3rd floor sky bridge over to the condo tower on the beach side. Once across the sky bridge, take the small elevator next to escalators down to street level. Exit left out of the elevator to the tower elevators. Take to the 4th floor. When you don't have a luggage cart, you can just use escalator or stairs by the small elevator to go down one flight to the condo elevators. Or, use the emergency stairs to go up one level to 4. You quickly get the hang of it!

We very much enjoyed our short stay here! The condo is immaculate & the communication with the host was excellent. We had cool, rainy weather much of the time & we realized when we got down there that our getaway coincided with Bike Week - so here is an endorsement for the fact that you can basically never leave this condo & still have a wonderful time! ;) A few highlights for me were the Starbucks downstairs & the location - being so close to Runaway Island & other restaurants we were able to take a 4 minute walk down the beach for great food & never get back in our truck till we checked out. Highly recommend!

The beach view of the condo was beautiful and unobstructed. Is located on the fourth floor. The patio made it comfortable to enjoy the beach without having to go down into the sand everyday. Our hosts were very attentive and helpful. The resort location was great with restaurants near by and the kitchen was equipped with everything you needed to make a stay at home meal as well.I would highly recommend staying in this lovely place.

High rise one bedroom condo. Very nicely decorated on 4th floor of a Wyndam property. Used the beach every day. Did not use the pool but had drinks there a couple of times. Parking not as challenging as anticipated. Note, this isn't property related, but law enforcement was over the top and visible everywhere so beware when driving. PCB is nice but restaurant choices amounted to gastro pub and fried everything. I would definitely recommend staying with this unit. Owner was extremely responsive and made for easy stay.

Thank you for your review Steve; we are so pleased you had a good stay at Emerald Beach Resort 432. We just love the resort and abundance of amenities. Spring Break time can be a little challenging and they really cracked down this year. We have a lot of families with children in town to watch after. Please come back and stay with us again.
