Great location, lots of space, plenty of parking, has a closet full of beach boards and toys to use. Unit needs some updating and maintenance. Could also use a deep cleaning. Still had a great time.
Perfect little beach condo with an amazing view of the ocean. It was clean and we loved that there was beach toys for our kids.We will definitely be back!
We had the best time! The condo was great. Very clean and great location. The view was amazing and the walk down to be beach was close. We have stayed in Destin many times and this is my favorite!
Property manager at Emerald Dunes was so accommodating. She went above and beyond for us. We had a last minute reservation request due to an unplanned notice for balcony repair at Crystal Dunes which resulted in our inability to stay in the unit. Her professionalism and empathy won’t be forgotten.
The unit was very clean, spacious, and comfortable with a beautiful view. The location was amazing. Instructions and communication were very clear. Aside from the very loud upstairs unit that seemed to stomp all hours of the day and night, our stay was wonderful

Ok property
Needs usb connections. Small kitchen. Front bedroom has bugs crawling on bed and needs new mattress. Great beach location.
The property managers were easy to communicate with. The check in process was seamless. When we arrived the condo was very clean and set up ready for guests.
Great condo ! We normally stay Crystal Dune or Emerald Dunes , so we love this area. Little disappointed that the chair set up didn’t come with it . The umbrella service was excellent though ! We come down atleast 2-4 times a year… we will positively be back .
We’ve been to Destin in the past and found this location—nice place, clean, good location and nice views. We had a couple questions during our stay and management was quick to respond.
Pros- The view and access to the private beach were incredible. - The living area was spacious, clean and comfortable.- The beach hands were wonderful- shout out to Rico.- The king size bed in the front room was very comfortable.Cons- A “violation “ was placed on our windshield within 30 minutes of us arriving and unloading our stuff in the unit, before we were able to place the parking pass on the dash. Thank you for the warm welcome.- For as MUCH as you pay for the rental, the property management was stingy with the basics. I understand it’s listed in the fine print that guests receive a “starter pack.” Two trash bags for a family for an entire week. No cleaning products to wipe down the kitchen counter. One dish tab, one small paper towel roll, and one laundry soap. No beach towels. No umbrella (as you’re expected to shell out even more money to pay for chair service). You had to spend quite a bit the first night, especially after a long day of flying. Also, there were two irons, but no ironing board. I’ve booked much cheaper rentals in the past that provided more of the necessary items.- The unit above us had a guest that loudly stomped/ran back and forth ALL DAY LONG, including late at night and early morning before 5:00 am during the entire stay.- The outdoor furniture was not very comfortable to lounge on the deck.
Nicely decorated condo. Had everything we needed & plenty space for the 7 of us. Enjoyed the balcony in the early mornings watching the dolphins. The ocean was like crystal clear pool water the week we were there, The beach was fabulous & clean. Definitely rent the umbrella/chairs for the week, so relaxing.
Condo was clean and well maintained. Easy access. Very nice and loved the location. Eat at Camille’s! Loved that we could walk over to grab lunch or whatever.
