Inside, you’ll find a bright and open living space designed for both relaxation and togetherness.

Just beside it, the dining area seats six, ideal for enjoying meals or playing cards late into the evening.
The spacious primary bedroom offers a comfortable king-size bed, private access to the balcony and an ensuite bathroom complete with double vanities, granite countertops and a large combination tub and shower. Two guest bedrooms, each furnished with a queen-size bed, provide plenty of space for additional family or friends. A second full bathroom, also updated with granite counters, is conveniently located nearby.
Step outside onto the covered balcony and take in the sounds of the surf and the scent of salty air. Whether you’re sipping coffee as the sun rises or watching the stars appear after dinner, it’s the perfect spot to unwind. Just downstairs, Emerald Key offers a Gulf-front pool with a relaxing waterfall feature, private beach access via a boardwalk, and a grilling area for guest use. A gated parking area adds security and peace of mind during your stay.

The condo was lovely. It was right on the beach and the weather was perfect. Maintenance was being performed on the building, so every morning at 7:30 we were woken up to sounds of equipment being used right off of our balcony.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, as it helps us continue to improve our services and ensure our guests have a wonderful experience. We hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future.
Exactly what you see in pictures but even bigger than we were expecting. Location is great lots around to eat, shop & so close to the beach. Second floor is perfect. The place was very clean and fit our family of 5 very comfortably. Check in/out was easy, management is very responsive and communicates often. We will be back.
Wonderful place will be staying here again if available

Thank you for your 5 star review. We are so glad to hear that the property was a wonderful place for your families vacation and we would be happy to host you again in the future.
We enjoyed our stay. The location with the oceanview and pool is great! We rented this room and another one. They were both nice, but we did not like check out time of this one being at 9 am. The other one was 10 am. We also didn’t like that all dishes needed to be washed and put away. I paid a cleaning fee and I’ve usually just had to load the dishwasher (which is what the other rental in that complex required). Neither is a huge deal and we would stay here again. We will probably try to book 2 units that have a later checkout than 9 am.

Thank you for your review. The weather is so pretty in the fall in Orange Beach. Emerald Key 201 doesn't disappoint. Low key, low density, close to just about anything you could think of on the Gulf. We hope you can visit with us again.
That's a great idea, and one that we will definitely pass along to the HOA of the complex. Thank you for the 5 star review! It was a pleasure to host you.
We had a great time! The condo was clean and spacious and had everything we needed.

Thank you for your review. We are so glad you enjoyed your Family beach vacation. Our fall offers such beautiful temperatures, the beach is a great getaway. Please visit with us again.
We were very satisfied with our accommodations. This place was perfect for us. Short walk to the beach, closeness of shopping options, attractions, etc. could not have asked for more. We will definitely consider this property for future visits to Orange Beach area.

Thank you for your review. We are so glad you were very satisfied with the home. It is a great location for families and hope that you visit with us again.
Nice and peaceful unit , not overcrowded and packed in like some of the other properties in the area. Our overall experience was great, just had some very minor things which should have been addressed by the property management company, hopefully the property owner changes to a better management company.

So sorry for your disappointment with our property management co. We truly work hard to assure our guests are comfortable and happy. Whatever issues there were, a phone call would have helped us address them. We do hope you enjoyed your beach stay.
The condo was in a central location to restaurants and shopping. The condo was furnished cute. The bathrooms need some updating like the master bath and the toilet seats.One of the front bedrooms does not cool like the rest of the condo.The parking is not gated and you are not required to have a parking pass so it makes it a free for all.The beach can get a little crowded so make sure to set your umbrellas and chairs up early.They also have the beach set ups for a price.The price was good for what we got!!

Thank you for your feedback on the condo. We appreciate your honest review and will take your comments into consideration to make improvements. We're glad to hear that the location and furnishings were satisfactory. We will look into updating the bathrooms and addressing the cooling issue in the front bedroom. The parking situation is something we'll review as well. We hope you still enjoyed your stay overall, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
This property was in the best location. Close to grocery, restaurants and shopping. There are not too many large condo properties around, so there was always a great place to set up on the beach and being on the second floor made for the best views in the morning for sunrise and wildlife watching. Check in and check out were very simple. Would definitely recommend this property and likely to stay here again!

Thank you for your review. We are so glad to hear that this was the best location. Emerald Key is a great location at the beach. From dolphins, birds, and people watching. We hope you will visit with us again.
We really enjoyed this condo! It had much more space than the pics reflect and it is decorated so cute. The beds were cozy and comfortable It was very clean with plenty of dishes, pots, pans etc.The view of Orange beach was amazing. You can sit on the wrap around balcony and watch the sun come up in the AM and go down at night. It is centrally located and was not too crowded even though we were there over Easter week. We rented umbrella and chairs right in front of the condo on the beach. My only suggestion to guests is to bring your own spices, sugar, coffee/tea, salt, pepper, - those types of things as they didn't have any of those items that we typically see at VRBOs.Otherwise, everything was perfect!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you loved the condo, especially the extra space, cozy beds, charming decor, and of course—that incredible wraparound balcony view of Orange Beach! It sounds like you made the most of your stay, from relaxing on the beach to enjoying those beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
We also really appreciate your helpful tip for future guests about bringing along basic pantry staples. While we do provide a well-stocked kitchen with cookware and utensils, we refrain from supplying items like spices and perishables for safety and hygiene reasons. That said, your feedback is spot-on and always helpful for future travelers.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be thrilled to welcome you back for another perfect stay! ☀️🌊🧡
The area is quiet. All units have beach view balconys. Plenty of restaurants and grocery stores located close at hand. The unit had plenty of room for 8 people. Wouldn't feel cramped for space. We take our annual family vaction here and we all love it.
