About this apartment rental

We are the owners of this fourth floor 2 BR 2BA condo in Emerald Isle Beach Club. Our unit (410) has direct Gulf views from the entry hall, kitchen, dining room, living room, master bedroom, and balcony. Imagine waking up each day to see the beautiful Gulf water and white sandy beach. Check out the pictures to see the exact views from our condo (click on each photo for full-size version with captions). A quick walk along the building brings you to the large beachside swimming pool, private boardwalk to the sand and surf, picnic patio with charcoal grills, tennis court, and the gorgeous white sugar-sand beach of the Emerald Coast.

The entire Emerald Isle complex underwent a year-long major renovation in 2016 with all new sliding glass doors, windows, paint, elevators, and amenities that include laundry rooms that accept Credit Cards as well as quarters. In addition, since purchasing this condo in 2015, we have remodeled the kitchen and installed all new appliances and granite countertops, and have also remodeled the Master Bath with walk-in tiled shower.

Emerald Isle, with just 70 units, is family friendly as well as welcoming to snowbirds. Our unit says "beach vacation" the minute you step in. This all tiled condo has high speed internet, King bed in master bedroom, Queen bed and single bed in 2nd BR. Both bedrooms have wall-mounted flat screen TVs, while LR has a 50" flat screen wall-mounted TV. A new (2024) sleeper sofa in the LR opens to make a Queen bed. Our kitchen is fully furnished, including a 4-slice toaster, a coffee grinder, a Keurig Duo Plus, which makes a standard single K cup or a full pot (using regular grind coffee). Beach service (large umbrella and 2 chairs) is included with the unit from March 1-Oct 31 and is set up for you on the beach each day. The beautiful pool is heated in March and April, and in October and November.

We provide an initial “start-up” supply of essential items for your stay, including
--toilet paper
--paper towels
--hand soap & hand sanitizer
--several dishwasher pods
--trash bags
--salt & pepper
--some K-cup coffee pods (plus filters for full pot)
These should easily get you through your first 24 – 48 hours. The Shoppes at Paradise Point at the foot of the Brooks Bridge is only 2 miles away, has a Publix Supermarket, Beach Liquors, and more for convenient shopping. A Tom Thumb minimart is within walking distance on Santa Rosa Boulevard.

We recommend you bring additional paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, napkins, condiments, spices, your favorite ground coffee (or K-cups), laundry soap, beach towels, sunscreen, plus anything else you may need for your perfect vacation.

Sliding doors from the living room and master bedroom provide access to the balcony that overlooks the Gulf. A small patio table with 5 chairs and a chaise lounge provide a relaxing spot to spend some leisure time, listen to the waves, have your morning coffee, and watch for dolphins (a common sight).

Several golf courses are located within a 20 mile radius and lots of great restaurants are close by on Okaloosa Island. Charter boats for deep sea fishing are 5 minutes from the condo. Downtown Fort Walton Beach and a shopping mall are only 10 minutes away. As noted above, a Publix Grocery is 3-1/2 miles from the condo, and a Tom Thumb convenience store is within walking distance.

EC Rider, the Okaloosa Island Transit Service has a bus stop (Route 20 - Stop 18 - Sailfish Drive) right in front of Emerald Isle Condos on Santa Rosa Blvd. Buses run Monday through Friday 7:30am - 6:30pm Memorial Day - Labor Day, arriving at each stop every 20 minutes. Winter schedules are slightly different.

We stayed at this wonderful condo in Fort Walton Beach from July 2nd to July 7th and couldn’t have been more pleased! The unit was clean, cozy, and truly inviting. The owner has thought of everything—from local restaurant recommendations to fresh linens and a fully stocked kitchen, which made our stay feel just like home.The complex itself was quiet and well-maintained. The condo is conveniently located near the pool and just a short walk to the beach, with beautiful views of the water right from the unit.One of the standout aspects was how responsive and accommodating the owner was. They were able to adjust our reservation last minute so we could arrive earlier than originally planned, which we really appreciated.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Property was as advertised. Some construction, but we were given advanced info w/option of full refund. One minor parking problem but rectified. Condo was well furnished, view was awesome, convient to pool and beach. Looking forward to staying next year!

I was so happy to be able to rent from an owner/user directly rather than a company. I think the attention to the home's amenities and cleanliness showed through as well as the communication from the owner. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. The building was quiet and with the window/doorwall open, we could see and hear the waves - so relaxing! Being on the 4th floor, we did not have to wait for the elevator and mostly took the stairs anyway, which was not a problem. A cart was available to loud our things in as well as for our groceries. The beach was beautiful and having the chair/umbrella service was so nice! The walk to the beach is so short we didn't even need to bring much with us. We went during spring break but the beach was not crowded at all and was mostly families. We would definitely recommend this place and are hoping to come back! Thank you!!

We loved it! The overall atmosphere is beach cottage cozy and relaxing. There's easy access per floor to parking, elevator, laundry, and trash. The building is smaller so we never had to wait for elevator, etc. The pool was never crowded. There's close access to beach and having reserved beach chairs and umbrella made it easy. The room ocean views are beautiful. They have so many conveniences prestocked for you. The beds were comfy including pull out sofa. We'd definitely stay here again! And Fort Walton Beach traffic and restaurants were much easier to maneuver than neighboring areas.
