601 Emerald Dunes gets right to the point of why you’re in Destin- not for snow covered mountains or forested rivers, you’re here to behold the glorious Gulf Of Mexico. However, this Destin vacation rental does more than let you behold Destin’s rare coast, it lets you experience it! It’s so close to the water’s edge that its almost as if you’re adrift on the peaceful emerald waves.

One of the few two-storied condos in Emerald Dunes, everything about this penthouse condo revolves around the precious beaches beyond the balcony. From the three separate seating areas to the teal and tan color palette, everything is as comfortable as the soft sand below and as eye-catching as the Gulf’s expanse. Plus, 601 is not without its perks! The primary suite features a huge luxury bathroom with a spa bathtub and separate vanities; a washer and dryer make keeping your clothes sand-free an absolute breeze, and a wet bar upstairs in the loft sitting area provides another entertainment area for your group.

Resting in Crystal Beach which is known for its colorful houses and tree lined streets, Emerald Dunes is in a great walking neighborhood. Restaurants and shops are in the immediate vicinity while golf courses and several open-air malls are within a mile's radius. Plus, a gated entry, a grilling area and a pool deck round out Emerald Dunes perks.

GREAT LOCATION! Located on the west end of Scenic Highway 98 in Crystal Beach, the property is within walking/biking distance of local shops and restaurants. When it’s time for dinner, Camille’s, a favorite local restaurant known for their fresh sushi and intimate bar, is just steps away. During the day, Camille’s sidewalk café serves a limited menu of coffee, smoothies, breakfast and lunch items and local brews. Also nearby, guests will enjoy access to Publix (grocery store) and Destin Commons, featuring a bowling alley, movie theater, restaurants and diverse mix of shopping opportunities.

Purchase your beach chair rentals for stays March-October by booking with Barefoot Beach Service online or directly at the beach during your stay.

This property comes with 2 parking spaces.

We do not rent to anyone under 25 or to students. We require 1 parent for every 2 people under 25.

Guests receive a welcome kit with small dishwasher detergent, dish soap, sponge, a roll of paper towels, and laundry detergent. There will be an initial trash liner in each receptacle and a set of toilet paper and soaps for each bathroom provided. Guests will need to replenish supplies for longer stays. In addition to our welcome kit, we also supply basic cooking essentials like salt, pepper, and oil.

    Beautiful view of the beach from the balcony. Gorgeous condo extremely clean. Contact with the rental agency was very easy. Probably one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed. Liked it so much. We’re going back next year.

    Well stocked kitchen. Decor was beachy but not too cluttered. Condo was roomy and comfortable. Plenty of storage room and closet space. Only one suggestion is too install grab bars in the showers for older ones safety. Would stay there again anytime!

    Absolutely loved this condo and the location! It was as pretty and comfortable as everything pictured. The beach guy was really friendly as well which is not always the case when I’ve stayed at other condos. Everything was great here. Very nice kitchen and well stocked. Condo was very clean!!! View to die for. Will definitely stay here again as often as I can

    601 was perfect! We were so happy with our stay here and hope to come back. It looked exactly how we expected in comparison to the pictures. It was very clean and the top floor was just what we wanted.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! This penthouse condo was by far the best one I’ve stayed in yet. I will book it again my next trip to Destin! Perfect location. Beautiful balcony. The rooms were huge. Perfect condo for a family of 6, 8, or even 10. It has everything you need there. The beach is so close too. At our other condos you have to walk so far to get to the beach but this one is a quick trip down. It’s just perfect all around. 10/10!!!

    The property was clean, spacious, and well appointed. It actually felt larger than the pictures made it appear. Perfect vacation rental for a large family looking to enjoy time together at the beach.

    The location was fantastic and we couldn’t have asked for a better week! The property was nice as well. Plenty of space for everyone in our group. We were disappointed that the property was listed as having 4 full baths and when we arrived there was an out of order sign on one of the showers. This would have been nice to know as the 4th full bath was a deciding factor on choosing this property. My husband Had read a previous review about it being out of order but it was over a year ago so we didn’t think anymore of it. I definitely think this should be disclosed up front prior to booking or the listing should be changed to a 3.5 bath. Outside of that we had a wonderful stay.
