Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Emerald Key
We chose to purchase this unit due to its perfect location on the beach, fantastic floor plan, the very low-density complex (18 units), awesome construction, and its close proximity to our home and our other rental unit.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Our unit is only a couple of minutes from our favorite restaurants and amusement park. I could stare at the ocean and sand from the comfort of this unit all day long. It's nice to pack a few clothes for a weekend trip without having to load the whole house as everything we need is always there for us.
Directly on the Beach in the heart of Orange Beach, Alabama !!!!

We loved taking long walks on the beach, swimming, collecting shells, and just enjoying the beautiful view from the balcony. What a wonderful place this is! The CONDO was great! LOVED IT! It was nice and roomy - you can't beat the view! The condo is gorgeous, spacious, and nicely decorated. Would love to come back!

Thanks for returning the deposit so quickly. I'd like to rent 502 again next year - sometime in June but I need to coordinate this with my family - so I'll be in touch shortly after Labor Day. Can you send me a schedule of open weeks? As always, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks for your hospitality!

My friends and I had the BEST time and fell in love with your condo at Emerald Key. It was absolutely divine--truly perfect! We loved the decor--my friends and I agreed that it was extremely well decorated, beautiful furnishings. Absolutely impeccable! I loved staying there so much that I hope you'll let me rent again, this time with my husband and son. It was a beautiful setting and a wonderful property. We also met the nice people that were staying in your other unit--they were having a wonderful experience as well. We can't thank you enough for offering your property online and giving us such a wonderful girls' getaway. We look forward to recommending your properties to our friends.

We had a great time, this is a great time to come - not too hot, and not too crowded. All the kids are back in school. We could turn the air off and open the slider, and let the breeze through. This is a place we could come back to a lot. We were here in August with my son and his girlfriend. The Carvers

Thanks for a wonderful end of the year summer vacation. We all go back to school in two days. We'd love to stay here longer. Had a great time out at the beach and the pool and at the Roll Throwing Lambert's. (Owner's Note: Lambert's is a local restaurant famous for their "throwed" rolls.)

Thank you very much for allowing us to rent your condo #502 at Emerald Key. We enjoyed our week, and thought that your furnishings are very comfortable and tasteful, and that the kitchen and dining supplies were very useful.

Thanks so much for giving us the opportunity to visit your beautiful condo. The view is fantastic. Tim and I got married July 11th at the state park between here and Gulf Shores. It was beautiful - something you dream about. Four people with us had never been to the beach or ocean, so it was a great experience. Thanks again. P.S. We will be back and let others know about you.

Thanks for the wonderful week in your beautiful condo. Your attention to detail helped make this our best vacation ever! The weather was perfect - not a drop of rain. The food was delicious, especially Franco's grouper and angel hair pasta! Of course, our perennial favorite is the Original Oyster House. We hope to be back next year. Emerald Key 502 is the best!
