    Really just awesome! Karen is attentive to needs and responds quickly. Cant imagine the stay being any better! We had 18 in our group. Plenty of space for everyone. Easy to find and get in and out to attractions. Beach is very close within a minute of walking. Very nice location and just overall a nice property.

    If you need a vacation home for a group/family look no further. This house is the perfect place - has it all. We had our kids and their families - 6 adults and 8 children (2 to 15 years old) and we were extremely comfortable with plenty of space. We enjoyed the very clean pool and the backyard balcony and lower patio with plenty of seating everywhere. The close proximity to the beautiful private beach is what everyone in our group couldn't stop talking about. It was utterly spectacular having our own personal space on the beach and made it so much nicer to keep an eye on the kiddos. We had a group of young men park their chairs behind us one day and the beach attendant asked them to move - it truly is your private, exclusive beach!! The house is so close that a few of us could go back and make lunches or get more drinks and snacks as needed. The kitchen had plenty of glassware, silverware and plates for the entire group and then some. The seating is plentiful and there was a place for everyone to eat dinner at a table. If I had a question, Karen responded within minutes, communication was amazing! This home did not disappoint, in fact it exceeded our expectations, and I would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!

    We loved our stay over spring break. The house was great and fit our 3 families very comfortably. We had all the tools we needed in the kitchen to cook each night and there was plenty of tables to sit and eat at. There was a beautiful breeze on the balcony that made dinner even more enjoyable. The location of the house to the beach was great. We were able to let the older kids come and go as they wanted. The chairs and umbrellas provided being setup on the beach was very convenient. We had 6 adults and 7 kids so we ended up paying to have a 3rd set of chairs which was very needed. We also had a few extra personal chairs that we were able to use. The location of the house to target, Publix, and lots of restaurants was great. We even were able to walk to get ice cream. Karen was great to work with, easy to reach, and super helpful. Highly recommend this house.

    Karen's house was the perfect spot for our family's vacation in Florida. We needed a large house with plenty of beds for the 15 of us (4 families) and the layout of the bedrooms (and with each having it's own bathroom) was exactly what we needed. The house itself is very nice and the fact that you can be on the beach in less than 2 minutes was fantastic! Karen was very responsive and would even check in periodically to make sure all was good. Couldn't have asked for anything more. Everyone agreed that we found the best house in Destin. Thanks again for everything!

    The house was beautiful and stocked with everything one would need on a vacation. The beach was amazing, the weather couldn’t have been better. We had an amazing time. The only negative feedback I have is for Karen the property owner. She was incredibly responsive, but was quick to become condescending. We paid for the pool to be heated and noticed on day 3 that it just wasn’t warm like it should be and then noticed the pump and heater weren’t on. She sent someone right away, the pool had blown a fuse and so hadn’t been working. Also needed a part. So we didn’t have heat until the last day. So 3/4 days with no heat at 57/day. When asked if I would get money back, she said she would let me know. She didn’t give me money back, when I asked again about this she said she didn’t charge me to have someone come look at it. I asked why would she even consider that as I paid for a heated pool and it wasn’t heated. This is when the communication really went sideways. She kept the majority of my security deposit staying we cracked a sink, but also stated there was a broken solar light and didn’t charge me for that as it could have been cracked by the group before. So how can she say our group broke a sink? Cracked a sink to be exact. Needless to say we had an amazing trip and thought the house was amazing. But I have to say I wouldn’t recommend simply due to how Karen communicated with me prior to the stay and after.

    We absolutely loved our stay. The house is beautiful, pristine and full of everything you need to enjoy your stay. The pool was perfect for the days it was too windy at the beach. The included beach chair/umbrella service made it easy to enjoy the beach. Highly recommend this house for your vacation.

    Villa Emeraude was a fantastic vacation rental! The house was absolutely beautiful, with tasteful decor and all the comforts we needed. The location couldn’t have been better, just a short walk to the beach, which made it easy to enjoy the ocean daily. The private pool was a highlight—it was clean, well-maintained, and a perfect place to relax. We had an amazing stay and would highly recommend Villa Emeraude to anyone looking for a beach getaway!

    After looking for a beach house for days on vrbo, I finally came across Emeraude Dunes of Destin. It is everything it says it is. Great communication with property manager. Very spacious and accommodated all of our needs for a family trip. We even had a full rainy day and the kids were happy playing inside with all the game options, and pool, also enough TVs for everyone to enjoy their own shows. We will definitely book again.
