Recent Emerald Coast guest reviews

Very clean and well kept. Easy to get to the beach. We have never came to the beach in the winter but we will definitely be back!

View was worth a million dollars. Sunset would make even the strongest weep! One morning a bald eagle flew by eye level (15th floor) within 10 ft of me.
Terra B. | Dec 2025
We were really happy with the house and you just can't beat the beach front location and view. If you are looking for fancy, this isn't for you, but for the price of this rental and the amazing location, you can't beat it. It's clean and comfortable, has a great deck overlooking the beach. Exactly what we were looking for. We'd definitely stay again on a future visit.

Named for the color of the ocean, the Emerald Coast combines ethereal green waters and sugary white sand beaches to create an atmosphere unlike any other. Leave your worries behind and enjoy an exotic—and unforgettable—escape from everyday life in one of our Emerald Coast beach rentals.

Where is the Emerald Coast?

Emerald Coast refers to Florida's coastal area on the northern tip of the Gulf of Mexico, spanning from Gulf Shores, AL to Panama City Beach, FL. The approximately 100 miles of coastline stretches through untamed wildlife preserves, sand dunes, and sleepy beachfront communities.

Things to do on the Emerald Coast

Pack light and travel often. Each of our vacation rentals is surrounded by friendly communities, each offering a unique sense of culture, history, and natural beauty along the Gulf. Board a unique Buccaneer Pirate Cruise in Destin, feed penguins at the Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park in family-friendly Fort Walton Beach, and shop until you drop at Pier Park in Panama City Beach.

Golf enthusiasts can practice their swing at the well-managed golf course in the peaceful resort town of Navarre, while the rest of the group enjoys an educational visit to the National Naval Aviation Museum in historic Pensacola. Wherever you roam along the Emerald Coast, excitement awaits.

Experience the thrill of the sea, fresh air, and a thing called 'island time' for yourself when you stay in one of our fantastic Emerald Coast beach house rentals, where you'll create long-lasting memories—and a few tan lines.
