Lovely Stay

We stayed for a long weekend, and the condo had everything we needed. Couldn’t beat the views, and the short walk down to the beach. Easily the least crowded area of the beach during peak season.

Nice little space for a relaxing time

The condo was perfect for my husband and I. Check-in and out was easy. The condo was super clean and organized with a very comfortable bed and amazing view. It had the basic necessities. Close to grocery stores and restaurants. Bc the building is smaller, the beach area felt way less crowded than some of the other areas. Wi-Fi and cable worked perfectly the entire time.

BEST location and view!

This was our second time to stay at the Emerald Sky and it does not disappoint! Check in and check out was a breeze with communication at its best. The entire property was clean and just adorable and the view from the patio was beautiful day and night! Sunsets on the patio or a short walk to the beach, this place has everything you will need for making a great memory! The location was easy to get to and so many choices for fun and food nearby! We will be back again and again every chance we get!

RELAXATION PARADISE! LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!

The absolute PERFECT condo & location for a beach getaway. Perfect for 2-6 people, comfortably. We stayed 7 days and not once did we feel as if another owned this unit. It is literally within walking-distance of EVERYWHERE one might need to go. The ocean at this spot is super clear AND shallow, as we were able to walk straight out to the sandbar withis water reaching mid-chest. No complaints of any sort- just fond and special memories made at Emerald Skye 45- Our Forever-Vacation paradise!

Quick Get-Away

The property is in a great location away from the crowds of Gulf Shores. The Emerald Isle property is not a large as most beachfront condos so the beach was not crowded at all. The condo itself (#45) was nice and clean with a fabulous view! The ONLY criticism was the bed mattress seemed past its prime and the balcony furniture was also a little tired. But overall, a wonderful retreat! Warning, take your own beach chairs... the rentals on the beach are quite steep!

My family came down to Orange Beach and stayed at this property for 10 days. The check in process was very simple, the beach view is great, access to the beach was very simple as long as you remember the gate code. There were a few problems though with the unit itself. First the cleanliness of it was not so great. We decided to walk down to the beach as soon as we got there. We came back up washed off at the shower and went to the unit. I remained barefooted as did my daughter. wasn't inside long at all till we both noticed the bottom of our feet were BLACK from the floors. we thought it was something different till we got a wet paper towel and spot cleaned, yes, it came out black. So, wear shoes if you go here. My wife and I bought cleaning supplies so we could clean the floors better than they were. Next the bathroom had a bad stench to it, not the normal sulfa smell either. Just odd. we bought air fresheners to fix that. Then the shower head hose was nasty. The smell I believe came from there as we believed it to be black mold. My wife sprayed it down with Bleach clean up. despite all the issues will the refrigerator door swing being wrong, the laundry bifold door is really loud, the closet doors in bedroom about to fall off, need door sweep on entry door, outdated furniture, and a couch that has been overused. We enjoyed the stay only because we pretty much just slept there. The Pictures DO this unit justice, Oh and don't forget to empty the dehumidifier daily.

Family Vacation

Location was perfect! Condo was great aside from things that were mentioned in other reviews. The main couch is well loved and can probably be replaced. The bathtub takes forever to drain. I will say the cleaning company did not clean properly and there was still sand all over the floor when we arrived. We came in late and I didn’t want to bother anyone and it was of no fault of the condo owners so I don’t fault them for that. Other than those minor things…. It was wonderful and I highly recommend! Air conditioning was strong! Place was so comfortable and the view was fantastic. Loved the pool too! It wasn’t super crowded which was great… my kiddos had the pool almost to themselves every time we used it!

Nice vacation

The area was fantastic. The condo unit was very clean and had starter items to get us started. The view from the balcony was stunning. I loved the box fans, as we love noise while sleeping. The beds were very comfortable. The washer and dryer was a plus. We went to Waterville and that was a hit. We also loved how close it was to Flora-Bama. We would recommend this unit to others.

Nice Little Condo

For a one bedroom unit, it had enough space for two people. For families with young children, there would be enough room for them, too. It was clean, smelled fresh and was updated. The pool is small, but it felt heated which was very nice in March. Overall, a nice condo for someone looking for smaller place to relax...nice views from balcony.
