A professionally decorated, luxury beach home, just steps from the sugar white beaches and gorgeous emerald waters of Destin, Florida. We are located within the Emerald Shores subdivision, a tropical, family-oriented, beach ownership community of upscale homes, situated 100 yards from the Gulf of Mexico. You will enjoy the two large heated community pools, the close proximity to the beach, access to the beach pavilion, onsite tennis, and the security of gated entrances.
Soft sandy shores and beautiful emerald water are just steps away. The privately owned beach pavilion is for Emerald Shores owners and rental guests only (entry code), and is accommodated by private bathrooms (entry code), outdoor showers, and beach service (chairs and umbrella).
We are close to restaurants, water sports, the Silver Sands Outlet Mall (largest in the south) and the newly opened Destin Commons. Destin Commons is a unique, open-air village, featuring upscale shopping, casual and fine dining, and a 14-screen, stadium-seating movie theater located 1.5 miles west. From Coconut Cove, you can safely bike with the kids through the neighborhood and along the paved bike paths for awesome beach views. Our favorite activity. Ask about beach bike delivery and pick-up to Coconut Cove!
From Coconut Cove, you can walk to either Captain Dave's On The Gulf, Wahoo's Oyster Palace, or Pompano Joe's Seafood and sample some of the local seafood flavors or just to relax and sip on a cold one.

Jay & Betty, We have really enjoyed your home. My mother (76) called the condominiums "condoms", ha. We really enjoyed our family time with William and Amy. Our grandson had a blast. Our time with him was wonderful. We look forward to coming back next year. God Bless You. Linda, Ricky & "Smooky"

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful place. We had the best time. On Tuesday, we took a dolphin cruise and on Friday we went to the Gulfarium. Our 2 year-old had a blast at both. My husband's 76 year-old grandmother had a fit over the house and fell in love with the dolphins and sea lions. Thank you for making such wonderful memories. We will be back next year. Thanks Again!! William, Amy, & Matthew E.
