South Seas is a 3000 square foot luxury beach home with partial views of the ocean from the third floor and just a stroll from the sugar white beaches and gorgeous emerald waters of Destin, Florida

We are located within the gated resort community of Emerald Shores, 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, on-site tennis, and the security of gated entrances.

The privately owned beach pavilion is for Emerald Shores owners and guests only, and is accommodated by private bathrooms, outdoor showers, and beach service (chairs and umbrella). Beach tram operates seasonally within Emerald Shores.

We are close to restaurants, water sports, and centrally located between major golf courses and shopping. We are less than 2 miles from two of the largest shopping complexes in North Florida!

The Silver Sands Outlet Mall is the largest designer outlet in the nation and the newly opened Destin Commons is a unique, open-air village, featuring upscale shopping, casual and fine dining, and a 14-screen, stadium-seating movie theater.

From South Seas, you can safely bike with the kids through the neighborhood and along the paved bike paths for awesome beach views, this being our favorite activity. Ask about beach bike delivery and pick-up to South Seas!

Your family can walk to various beach front restaurants including Captain Dave's On The Gulf, Kenny's Oyster Palace, The Crab Trap, or Pompano Joe's Seafood. These restaurants are so close and convenient to our home it allows you to effortlessly sample some of the local seafood flavors or to just kick back and enjoy the relaxing beach views while sipping on a frothy cold tropical libation.

    • The house and community were awesome. We really appreciated you calling and checking on us on Mon. I felt like you were available in case we needed you. That was a great touch. We had an incredible time and look forward to coming back. We would definitely stay in this house again. If we don't need a house that big, we will definitely try to stay in another house of yours. The house was exactly as you said it would be. It met our needs perfectly. The three levels were perfectly laid out for three families with children. Thank you so much for helping to make our stay in Destin a great success. Can't wait to come back."

    • WOW! What an amazing stay in Destin and the house was what made the trip so great. We had 14 people stay in "South Seas" and we all had plenty of room. Everything was nice and clean and there was more than we needed for our stay. I can't say enough about the gorgeous house. We are definitely planning another stay in Destin and will be looking to stay in the sdame house. A wonderful retreat!

    • This was beautiful we had the best time. There were 15 of us from 1 y.o. to 65. Plenty of room plenty of dishes for all of us. The kids loved all of the sand toys. You don't need to take any of your own. The wagons were great to pack the 50 or so things the young ones needed to bring every trip to the beach and not a far walk at all. This was our forth time in Destin and we love it there the prettiest beaches ever.

    • We arrived on 6/6/09. The house is GORGEOUS and the location was perfect. We only needed our clothes and some groceries to be right at home. The walk to the beach was quick & easy. We just loved every minute of our vacation! Thank you, Jay!

      This is our 2nd year coming and a different house. Both homes were very well maintained, not a mark on the wall, not a spot of dust anywhere, wish I could keep mine to this level all the time. Very pleased - our in-laws came with us this time and they said that we are stuck with them from now on when we take our beach vacation. Kids had the best time! We love the laid back area as compared to the rest of Destin and prefer to cook in and relax. This house really allows for that. One trip to Publix and the fish market and you don't have to go anywhere else. Thanks again Jay and nice to have met you in person. Khristi B. & Family

    • This was our families first "spring break" trip and it couldn't have been any better. The home is absolutely beautiful and very, very clean. We had plenty of room for the 8 of us that stayed. The only thing you need to bring are your flip flop's and a couple of bathing suit's, Jay and Betty provide everything else!!!
