Location: Emerald Skye, Orange Beach Central, Orange Beach, Alabama, USA
Accommodations: Condo, 1 Bedroom + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 1 Bath (Sleeps 6)
Keywords: Gulf-Front Condominium
Direct view Gulf-front condominium on the sugar-white sand of Orange Beach, Alabama, just a few short miles down the beach from Perdido Key, Florida. Our complex is located within 5 miles of The Wharf's Amphitheater, shops, restaurants, fishing charters and dolphin cruises.
EMERALD SKYE, Unit 61 is a beautiful, top floor corner unit with spectacular gulf front views, both from the balcony and east side windows. Large private balcony, carpeted bedroom and tile throughout.
This is a top (7th) floor, corner unit that offers a Gulf-front vacation with great amenities at an affordable price. This unit has direct gulf views that overlook some of the whitest beaches in America. Decorated in tropical decor, our oceanfront, top corner unit has panoramic views of the beach and Gulf. Sit on your private balcony and watch the charter boats leave the Perdido Pass after a picture perfect sunrise while drinking your coffee or just watch the dolphins feeding and playing in the Gulf in front of you.
This top floor, corner unit has three extra windows facing east so you have a 180 degree view of the beach and Gulf. In addition to the direct Gulf front views of the beach and gulf from the balcony, there are unobstructed views east toward the Perdido Pass and Perdido Key. There is no comparison of the views from this unit to other condos that do not have side viewing exterior windows.
This is a one bedroom (king-size bed), one bathroom plus two bunk beds that are perfect for the families with small children and with the affordable rental price makes the condo excellent for couples. The queen size sofa sleeper in the living area makes this condo a great choice for up to four adults and two children, so go ahead and bring the babysitter. Fully equipped kitchen with new appliances and washer and dryer if you need them!
The bunk bed area in the hallway can be totally closed off from the living area and master bedroom. There is a door to the private bedroom with a king-size bed, and a pocket door between the bunk area and living area. Why pay extra for a two bedroom condo or hotel room, when you can put the kids to bed and close a door for privacy.
This unit is a non-smoking unit except on the balcony (with balcony door closed)!! Sorry, no pets permitted.
***Free High Speed Wireless Internet available in our condo*** You bring the computer with 802.11b/g wireless and connect to the Internet via the wireless internet.

Quiet and comfortable

This property was a pleasant place to stay with a kitchen that was easy to work in and had a lot of unexpected (yet appreciated!) kitchen tools. The emphasis is on comfort in this condominium, which made it easy to relax, which was just what we wanted to do. Fall is an excellent time to visit the beach because it's less crowded and the weather was perfect the weekend we were there. The owner was more than helpful in making everything work for our stay and in answering any questions we had -- and anticipating questions we might have. The complex is a smaller one, which was nice and meant no crowds on the beach or in the parking lot! And, it's across the street from Cottons, which is one of our favorite places to eat in Orange Beach. I've already recommended the property to a few friends and will do so again.

We enjoyed our stay in your condo. Really enjoyed sitting on balcony at night with the lighted pier next door. Condo was very nice and clean. Kathy was very helpful with answering questions and providing suggestions with places to eat. Hope to be able to rent this condo same time next year.

Forty first anniversary

My wife and I celebrated our 41st anniversary in ES 61 September 10 - 17. The condo was everything Kathy said it would be and more. We had a full moon on the night of our anniversary. The beach and weather were ideal.We used the beach chairs and umbrella every day. The condo is close to the water, so carrying them down is no problem. After walking the beach at daylight, we cooked breakfast and spent the rest of the day on the beach. The king size bed was as comfortable as any I have ever slept on. Kathy was very helpful with booking the condo and recommending good places to eat.We also enjoyed the Shrimp Basket and Mikees Seafood restaurants.Thanks, Kathy, for a great vacation. We hope we can do it every year.

Our Best Vacation Ever!

This was our first experience with renting a private condo instead of staying at a resort. We had such a pleasant experience, we wondered why we hadn't done this on our past vacations. The Emerald Skye condos were perfect for us. The resorts where we've stayed in past were crowded and noisey. Emerald Skye was laid back and relaxed. Our condo was just the right size, comfortable and clean with a colorful beach decor that added to the experience. We enjoyed a majical, panoramic view of the beach and ocean from our balcony. We sipped our coffee in the mornings and watched pods of Dolphins gently trolling down the beach front each morning. A large, lighted pier made for romantic views at night. Our condos were also located near the best restaurants in Orange Beach. Kathy, the owner of our condo, was extremely helpful by sending us a long list of local eateries which included reviews from previous tenants. We tried a different restaurant every night. All we'd recomend. Kathy allowed us to use her beach equipment which also helped us save money. Emerald Skye and the city of Orange Beach far exceeded our expectations.Kathy was wonderful as well. We will return.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway.

We so enjoyed our stay in Kathy's very well equipped condo! The location couldn't have been more perfect....top floor, two directional beach views and just steps from the beach! It was just as Kathy described. By the way, you won't deal with a more accomodating and on-the-ball owner than Kathy! Thank you so much....we hope we can return someday!

We loved this condo and was our little home while on vacation. Very neat and comfortable. Everything we needed was there for us to use and all we needed was food. The view is great. I would highly recommend this condo.

My daughter and I just returned from a few days at Orange Beach and this condo. We enjoyed the colors of the condo, the lay out of the furnishing, and the QUIET atmoshpere. The balcony was especially nice at night while relaxing and listening to the waves. Hope to return soon. The owner goes above and beyond in sending directions and quickly answering all questions. Go to Lulu's and have a great time.

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at E.S. 61. The condo was very clean, comfortable, and well-decorated. The view from the balcony is incredible. We had breakfast out there every morning. Thank you, Kathy, for all of your suggestions on restaurants. We tried several of them and they were all very good. We certainly got our fill of the tasty seafood that's offered. The use of the umbrellas and beach chairs was fantastic. We enjoyed spending hours on the beach each day reading. It was very therapeutic and relaxing. I highly recommend E.S. 61 and I look forward to going back.

Although we thanked the owners, using the guestbook that was provided in the condo, I wanted to take this opportunity to leave additional feedback about what an awesome stay we had. My boyfriend and I traveled down from North Mississippi for a four night stay on the week of 6/6/11, and we enjoyed every minute of it. I must say that the pictures that the owners have posted do not do this condo justice. They not only keep it immaculate, but couch, beadspreads, and TV's have all been updated at some point. My boyfriend and I searched the internet for weeks, looking for a condo with a SPECTACULAR view, and I'm so pleased that we ended up with a balcony that truly exceeded our expectations. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our mornings and evenings on the out there!! Oh, and Kathy really went above and BEYOND with her helpful tips and recommendations for places to go and things to do. Our favorites of the trip would have to be The Gulf Shores Steamer, Pirate's Island Golf, and The Hangout. We will most definitely make the trip again, and hopefully this condo will available to welcome us back!

My husband and I rented this awesome condo for our 10 year anniversary getaway - NO KIDS! It was PERFECT for us! All around us were crowded beaches and lots of noise, but on our little piece of the beach it was quiet and relaxing. Communication with Kathy was excellent! I feel certain that had we needed her during our stay, she was only a quick phone call or email away! She made the transaction smooth and easy and headache-free! I would definitely recommend renting THIS condo whether you are looking for a romantic getaway or a fun vacation with the kids!
