We enjoyed our relaxing spring break at this condo. The location is very convenient. Right on the beach! And close to grocery stores and shops. The condo was clean and as described.

Our family of 5 fit comfortably for our 4 night stay. The location can not be beat! The upgrades which were recently completed looked great and the view was spectacular. Would recommend some additional updates to bathrooms; also the the mattress in the master bedroom needs replaced. The complex was small which made it quick to get to the beach; we took the stairs often, despite being on 5th floor because the elevator had a strong odor. Parking was super easy, as were checkin/checkout. Jack was very accommodating to let us check in early. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend others to stay here.

We had a great time at Jack’s condo! Perfect location, So much room for all 4 of us to spread out. One issue that I emailed him with and he responded quickly. We all agreed we would be happy to make this condo the destination for our next trip! *Ice maker not super efficient so remember to grab a bag or two while you are out!

The condo worked wonderfully well with small grandchildren. Easy to get them to the beach with all their stuff. Literally just a few feet with no stairs to the sand. The little ones loved the pool. Condos were peaceful and safe. Thanks so much!

This was my third time staying at Emerald Key. I love the view and location. The local art work was beautiful. It’s near the end of season and time for a few updates and deep cleaning but that seem to be the case this time of year. Easy check in.

We had a great time during our stay. Communication with Jack was clear and easy, and there were no issues while we were there. The condo is comfortable and convenient, and we really enjoyed the smaller complex.

We have heard fave reviews of the Gulf Shore/Orange Beach area and people were right! The weather was perfect and just what these fair skinned northerners needed to start getting our summer tan!
Now, about the abode! Jack's place was just what we needed. It was close to the beach and had a great view! There were restaurants and grocery stores right across from our weeklong abode. Can we say convenient?
Added to the wonderful three bedroom condo was the helpfulness of Jack, the owner. Not only was he super responsive to texts, but he also personally reached out to use to let us know about a wind advisory, rip tides, and a tornado warning/watch. He was looking out for us!
5.0 / 5.0
Very nicely furnished, beds are super comfortable! While we didn’t cook the kitchen is appropriately furnished! We had a few concerns and notified Mr. Jack who promptly responded! This condo is in a great location and due to the size of the building it is not crowded! Would definitely stay here again!
5.0 / 5.0
The property was way nicer then we anticipated which was very good. It was big enough to comfortably sleep my friends and I and it had a decent size kitchen so we could cook some meals. It was right on the beach which was a huge plus and the manger of the property was a very nice and respectful. He let my friends and I stay there for 7 days and gave us an exception because we were younger than the renters minium age. I enjoyed my stay very much!

Spacious condo with all of the amenities.
5.0 / 5.0
There are plenty of fancy large condos in orange beach and the surrounding areas but if you are looking for simple with the perfect location this is the place to stay. The condo was clean and has all the things needed for a relaxing beach trip. The beds are all comfortable which is a major plus. If you’ve forgotten something you can walk across the street to the Walmart neighborhood market. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of cooking utensils and pans. We will definitely be back.

We loved staying here and would again. The condo has everything you need and the owner, Jack, is very easy to work with!
2.0 / 5.0
The unit appeared to be relatively clean other that some mold around the entry door and on the guest bath shower doors. The master bed is very soft (not a problem for us.) Some of the living room furniture could use a little spiffing up. Orange Beach has had a tough time recovering from Hurricane Sally. We saw a number of building with missing balcony rails and blue tarps were still in evidence on some houses. Hopefully things will get better with time.

The condo was very beautifully decorated, very clean and in the perfect beach location.

Although it rained all but one day at Orange Beach, we enjoyed our stay there because the condo was so comfortable. we just chilled and watched the waves from the deck until the weather broke, then just chilled on the beach! Very nice condo.

Great location! Our family had a great time. We were slightly disappointed with the view being obscured by the scaffolding, but the rest of the condo was great.

Jack respomded to any questions or issues in a timely manner.
1.0 / 5.0
Upon entering the property, we anticipated a clean condo & beautiful views. Instead the ocean view from the balcony was obscured by the construction scaffolding & plastic sheeting wrapped across the railing. Unless you stood or sat in the tall chairs there was no described view. Additionally, we had to wash sheets the first night on one of the beds since they had not been laundered & sand was all over them. The master bath had mold on the ceiling & was on the glass doors . And, in our opinion, the living room furniture needs to be cleaned. We all agreed we LOVED the location of Emerald Key & would stay in the complex again but in another unit. Note: Before booking, be sure to ask if the outside remodeling has been completed.

the condo was nice . It was construction going on which I knew before we went but other than the construction. It was really great
