Emerald Isle #101

We traveled with our daughter, son-in-law and twin 1 year old grandsons. Weather was great - and we thoroughly enjoyed this great condo. Very open-concept, corner unit that was decorated well, clean and met all of our needs. There was room to put two portable cribs in the twin bed bedroom and two high chairs in the dining area. Pools were nice and not over-crowded, and the beach is accessed by a short boardwalk right off of the pool area. Our family had a wonderful vacation here.

Emerald Isle 101 is the PERFECT vacation rental! The view is spectacular! The condo is spacious and even larger than it appears in the photos. Beautiful high end appliances and the quietest dishwasher I've ever heard, The pools, hot tub, gym and sauna were awesome! The elevator and boardwalk made it easy for my 80 yo parents to make their way to the beach. I can't say enough good about this unit and we are already looking forward to our next stay!

Our accommodation was very nice. Being in a corner unit with the large windows allowed us a beautiful view of the beach. Our unit was close to the elevator so we were able to come and go easily. The location was within walking distance to shopping and a convenience store. I would recommend it for family or adult getaway.

Our stay was great, the location is spot on, and Paradise Beach Home agents were extremely friendly and helpful. WE will defiantly use there services again.

We spent 5 days in Pensacola Beach the middle of Feb. The sun was out 4 out of 5 days and the temp was in the mid 60's during the day. Our condo was in an excellent location and we could have walked most places we needed to go. We totally enjoyed our stay and if we are back in that area would stay in the same condo again. Management was very friendly and helpful. The condo was clean and in great shape.

The condo was very spacious and nice. Didn't have pillows for the pull out couch or any extra blankets. Otherwise very pleased with the condo. The condo was roomy enough for 5 adults and 3 kids and nicely decorated. Unfortunately the red flag flew all week so we couldn't get in the water to enjoy the gulf - no ones fault, just disappointing.

Wonderful condo and location...5th year staying at Emerald Isle..First time customers of Paradise Beach. PBH was such a pleasant surprise, we already booked for next year, Thank you Nicole K!

Our 2nd year at Emerald Isle & we lived it!

Really like the location on the Island, this is an older property, it is well maintained, Suite 101 is spacious and enjoyable. There is no grill, do not count on grilling fresh fish or shrimp. Needs a large pot to boil corn and shrimp. The property has a bothersome exit and entry policy, use punch codes EVERY time, our code did not work always, especially to enter, just pull the doors apart and they open.

My family of 5 as well as my Sister, Mother and her boyfriend stayed for a week, pool and hot tub were great! Condo was clean and comfortable. The view is of the pool and the Gulf which was great! The negative was the refrigerator was leaking water on the kitchen floor, the 24 hour line is lacking the ability to handle problems and turned off our water to our condo for 4 hours on our last day of vacation leaving us no way to brush our teeth, shower, do laundry, or make coffee. Customer service was rude on the phone and hushed me on the phone when I called asking when they were going to get to it. The condo itself was equipped with almost all you could ask for... we realized at the last day we could had requested more towels. Wish they would had equipped the condo with a towel per person scheduled for the stay.. Also the amount of silverware was minimal. This is a beautiful and comfortable condo just a few details need to be addressed. Customer service being one of them. The property owner has the rental together not sure about Paradise beach rentals

Management company was extremely helpful and gave us a goody bag when we checked in with some snacks and very needed Aloe vera!

The location of Emerald Isle #101 was exceptional. Great view and overlooking the coast. Accommodations were comfortable and roomy. The condo was clean, although poorly appointed in terms of cooking utensils.

We had alot of fun. Great spot to stay. Rental agents were very nice and helpfull. We will be back

Condo #101 view is partially blocked by palm trees and during our stay they were working to reclaim the beach. The reclaiming process however was very quick and efficient. This condo does not not have a lot of amenities as I have stayed in Destin in the past which have newer appliances.

Great trip at a beautiful condo that easily accommodated 2 adults & 5 kids ages 4-17. Loved the pool area & easy access to the beach.

We were on the first floor. The property was very spacious and decorated so nice. The view was beautiful. Only draw back was the construction that was just below our property. Loved the fact we could walk to beach. I was impressed with the security of the property.

We were very pleased with the booking process and the responsiveness by Paradise to a couple of minor issues. The property was exactly what we were looking for. The chairs on the balcony had not been cleaned well, however. This resulted in stains on the back of 2 shirts which could not be washed away. The response when we reported the issue was only "I'm sorry this happened". I was somewhat underwhelmed by the response.

We had an awesome weekend. We watched our daughter get married on the beach and made a lot of happy memories. The condo was located close to the ceremony and made it quite easy to commute back and forth. It was very roomy and allowed for several people to prepare for the wedding at the same time. It was also close to restaurants and activities that we were able to take advantage of all weekend.

The location to the ocean, the outdoor pools and the property management team was very good. The general condition of the property was average at best for the following reasons: the bath tubs were worn out and we could not use the tubs for the younger children (they had to use the showers), one bath did not have a shower head installed (had to get that addressed right away), the mattress in the master bedroom was in poor condition and both me and my wife felt it was uncomfortable and made for a poor nights sleep. For the price we paid for our weekly stay, the items that I noted should have been in better condition.

Beautiful view, clean, all of the essentials needed for extended stay were provided. Parking was always available. Within walking distance of all the fun stuff to do and places to eat!

It was a very easy and smooth vacation in the perfect location for Pennsacola!

We stayed at the Emerald Isle #101 for five nights in mid-September 2014, and enjoyed it very much. The property is centrally located on Pensacola Beach, and it has easy access to restaurants and gift shops.

We found the property as advertised, very nice and clean, with a nice spacious living room. It had three bedrooms and two baths, and a full size washer and dryer.

Overall, we had a great time, but there are a few things you need consider about this property: (1) The biggest drawback was the clear plexiglass panels which were affixed to the deck railing, as it totally blocked any sea breeze to the deck, making the deck unbearably hot; (2) The gauzy curtains in the living room could not be raised, so the beautiful view was severely blocked; (3) The large tub jacuzzi spa jets were broken, and would not work.

But, the things we mention are minor, We would not hesitate to recommond this property to anyone who wants a nice time on Pensacola Beach!

By the way, don't eat at Flounders! It is overpriced, with service and food that was very poor.

Only complaint was patio furniture was in bad shape and roach under the dishwasher. Also, the door inside the dishwsher that releases the detergent into the dishwasher would not open to release during the cleaning cycle.

Totally positive experience. The condo was great...excellent location within the complex and could walk across the street to local entertainment. I definitely would stay here again and recommend it to others.
