Golf Cart: We purchased a fleet of golf carts for our homes because local companies were charging $165/day. We only charge enough to pay for the golf carts and insurance. They range in price from $300 per week to $495 per week (+taxes and processing), depending on time of year. Availability shouldn't be a problem but please inquire first about availability if having a golf cart is a must for your week of stay. The golf cart is a brand new six seater Club Car Tempo with a sound system, leather seats, and a lithium ion battery for an extra long charge.
Usually when renting a home in the area the number one issue guests have is beach access. Being right on the beach is super expensive and being too far away is cumbersome because you have to rent a golf cart or walk many blocks hauling gear. This house is the best of both worlds. A straight shot 1/2 block walk to a private access beach.without paying the price of beachfront property. All the guests always appreciate the location, and the purpose of going to Florida is being close to the beach! Also this house is huge! Other properties in this price range are usually only 2800-3000 square feet. This is 4200. So with a lot of people in the house you won't be on top of each other.
The layout of bedrooms is as follows:
First floor: on the first floor there is a king bedroom which has a door to a bathroom. Others on the first floor living room have a door to the same bathroom. Total one bedroom, one bath.
Second floor: 1 ensuite master, another king bedroom with a jack and jill bathroom which joins to one bunk bed room. And then another bunk bed room. Total four bedrooms, two baths.
Third floor: 2 ensuite masters. Total two bedrooms, two baths.
Parking: The house fits five cars and there is overflow parking in the HOA where you could get one more parking spot.
As for furniture, designer appointments include furnishings by Tommy Bahama, Bernhardt, Lane, Drexel Heritage and Hooker; window treatments by Scalamandre; bedding by Ralph Lauren, DKNY, and Calvin Klein Home.
Bedding: 5 kings, 5 bunk beds (10 twins), and 2 queen sleepers (one in living room and one in master bedrooms - sleeps 20 in beds/ 24 total; Child friendly home includes a Ragazzi crib, 2 pack & plays, baby gates, high chair, and sand/ pool toys. Designer furnishings/ professionally decorated.
High speed Wireless Internet access; 2 full sized refrigerators (one in kitchen, one in garage), LCD TVs in all bedrooms, including 77' LED HD tv in living room. Surround sound system in living room and on all three floors of outdoor porches, including pool area.
PING PONG / POOL TABLE and movie theater seating and surround sound in the game room/movie theater.

HIGH SEASON REFUND POLICY: If you wish to cancel we will attempt the dates and will refund you what we book it for. With enough lead time we should be able to rebook for 100% of what you paid. VRBO does not enough more than a 60 day window of time for cancellations and within 60 days we may not be able to rebook the exact same timeframe for your reservation. If you need to cancel please make sure to contact us as soon as possible so we can rebook the time period. Guests often book a year in advance with many guests that is why a short refund policy that vrbo has just doesn't work.
COVID POLICY: Should the house be unavailable due to a government imposed shutdown, you would get a 100% refund.
DAMAGE PROTECTION: There is a $59 fee included in your reservation that covers you up to $1500 in accidental damages.
POOL HEAT: pool heat is optional, with 3 water fall spill overs/built-in seats/ travertine and pavered pool decking and gas grill. $40/day ($280/week) plus tax. Pool heat is for duration of stay and cannot be heated for partial days. Recommended mid October through mid May.
BEACH CHAIR SERVICE: We offer a discounted beach service. If you choose this option, vendors will set up two umbrellas and four chairs, Sunday-Friday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Many of our guests enjoy this amenity as it guarantees a prime reserved spot on the beach and does not require you to lug the umbrellas and chairs back and forth yourself. This typically runs about $500 a week, through the vendor. But, because we have a contract with them we offer it to you for the steeply discounted rate of $250 + tax.
**Pets: we are open to hosting your furry friends. However, please inquire before booking. Pet fee is $150 per stay.
**This HOA does not allow overnight parking for large vehicles or tow vehicles including: uhauls, RV's, tow trailers, etc. If you have such a vehicle please inquire with us about how we may be able to accommodate it somewhere else outside the HOA before booking. If you have already booked please call us to discuss your options.

We had to cut our stay short due to some issues, but Michael was gracious enough to help us out. The house is gorgeous and location is great. Perfect for a large group. Once all issues are resolved, we would gladly stay again!

My family of 16 stayed in Emerald Breeze for a week and had a perfect experience! The house was beautiful and so spacious. It was well stocked and only a half block from the private beach. The hosts were very responsive to our questions and did an excellent job in giving us thorough and clear instructions.We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Can't wait to go back!

The entire experience with this rental was exactly as described. There were absolutely no surprises. The door was literally open for us when we arrived. The linens were high quality. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen supplies were more like what I have at home than what I’ve seen in other rentals—definitely of a high quality that aligned with the home. The pool was clean and well cared for throughout our stay. We paid for heat, and the temperature was perfect—very warm and inviting when the early April beach days had ocean water in the mid 60s. The game room was a hit with the kids, and the owners left us with a fresh box of table tennis balls for the pool table-mounted table tennis top. The beach service was perfect, and the four Tommy Bahama chairs provided at the house were the highest quality. The upstairs balconies were all great. The furniture in the house was clean and comfortable.
We had unnecessary reservations about the distance of the walk to the beach. There was a code lock community gate about 200 feet from the back door, then literally half a block to a coded gate for the beach. We paid for the chair and umbrella service and had surf-side seats ready by sunrise. The walk was close enough that we had no trouble allowing the children (10-16) to walk back unsupervised.
We emailed the property manager when we changed to the spare propane and there was a new spare there in less than 12 hours. They were responsive throughout the entire experience.

We loved the house, the location near the beach, the number of bedrooms, the quick replies from the hosts. Everything we needed was there and it was a really comfortable place.

The house was wonderful. The pool was small, but all we needed after a day at the beach. Plenty of pool & beach toys as well as chairs & umbrellas.
The property around the house is in need of some cleanup. Great location for the beach and shopping and would consider staying in this house again in the future.

House was clean and spacious. Plenty of room for the 16 of us that stayed. The house is closer to the beach than you think it is from the map. Half of the walk is gated inside the community, and it only takes about 3 minutes to get to the private beach access. This was perfect. Thanks for having us.

My family of 14 people ranging from grandparents to infants stayed for one week. The walk to the beach is easy. We did buy a wagon to carry most of our items. because there was so many of us. I will say that the pool and game room was a huge hit with my grandkids.

Perfect house for multiple families and not far from the beach. Owner was very nice and was always just a text away if needed.

We rented this facility for a week in August 2023. I could not be happier with the rental property. The area was clean and appeared to be as described. Communication with the property owner and manager could not have been easier. This exceeded our expectations and we will rent again in the future.

This is a spacious and amazing house and is located in a quiet neighborhood! My husband and I, along with 8 family members, rented the house for a week and found it more than adequate to accommodate all of us. The house amenities were more than sufficient for our stay. The private beach entrance was within easy walking distance, and the pool was so refreshing that we used it every day. Another convenience was the beach umbrella/chair service which was offered at a discounted price. Last but not least, the host and his staff were so helpful and kind. Thank you for making this family vacation so nice for us, and we hope to rent from Harleman Vacation Rentals again!

++Great communication with the property manager.
1.Property had plenty of room.
2.Adequate appliances and cooking utensils.
3. Fees for golf cart and beach chairs/umbrellas rentals through the property manager were a great cost savings.
4.Easy access to the beach.
5. No problems with parking, we had 7 vehicles.
6. We frequently used the gas grill and pool.
7. The game room/Theater was great, except for being warm.
One repair item: The oven gasket (left side) was loose and wouldn’t seal well. Which caused the oven to be less efficient.

The property was amazing along with the location, the house was very ckean and was massive.

First the place was perfect for our group. Being close to the beach was awesome. The house was very open and enjoyed the pool table. The outside of the pool was little unorganized. And little debris everywhere. Didn’t like that we thought we had 6 rooms with single beds but they changed one room to another set of bunk beds. Left a dad sleeping in a bunk bed.
Overall great place and the owners were great. Looking forward in staying there again.

The house was beautiful and very comfortable for a larger family or multiple families. The location is the best - a very quick walk to the beach. The house had everything we needed and I would absolutely rent again!!

Omg 😍 this s a very beautiful home, in a very quiet and beautiful neighborhood. Right in the heart of places to eat and shop. Great access to beach, right down from where our wedding was to be held. The property manager and his staff was very kind and helpful. It was a bit cold and windy during my stay so I didn’t get to use pool or sit out on balcony but looking out the windows it looked nice. Would definitely stay here again and I would recommend it to others.

Stayed exactly at this same house before and will NOT be back.
The location is perfect, but that's it. Nothing like going on vacation and being harassed the first 3 day's.

Destin Family Vacation
We could not have asked for a better family vacation experience! The house was fantastic and the location was great! Within walking distance to the beach which was awesome, and directly across the street from Alvins! We had an issues with a couple of the fans in the house not working, and the next day, Miguel showed up with three new ones. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we are already planning our next stay again! Would definitely recommend this place!

Wonderful
This property couldn’t have been in a better location. The walk was so convenient to the beach, restaurants, and shops. It being in a gated community was a huge bonus! The size and layout of the home was perfect for each family unit to basically have their own level of the home and there is PLENTY of space for multiple families. We’ve rented in Destin before and this home was the first to be overly stocked in dish ware, utensils, and kitchen appliances.. which was great. Overall, it was a great house and we’d have zero issue renting this home again!

Excellent Location!
We had an amazing week with our group of 16. Plenty of room for everyone and the kitchen was fully stocked with all cooking essentials. There was even a Keurig. The location can’t be beat to the beach. A very short walk. I had a couple questions during our stay and got a response very quickly from the local guy. We paid for the heated pool and it was a great temperature all week. They have beach chairs, sand toys, high chair, pack and play. My only complaint is there were not enough towels and wash clothes for the number of guests. Definitely would stay again if we were in the area!

Nice..but!
Beautiful house but needs CLEANED. Not enough towels, food crumbs in drawers, one teaspoon (the rest were soup spoons). Pool was not vacuumed, deck was dirty. Bathrooms had mold and slime.
Asked that the pool be heated on arrival, had to bother on call man to assist with this. He was outstanding!!!!!!

Excellent place to stay! Close to the beach and little shops.
We had a great stay at Emerald waters! We had everything we needed and no problems at all. This place was perfect for our 15 person crew. There was even more space than we needed. We loved having the pool. Michael the owner checked in with us a few times to make sure all was well and that we had everything we needed. Nice, comfortable beds and showers. Television in every room. Many attractions nearby within walking distance: souvenir shops, ice cream, coffee shop, restaurants, even parasailing, jet ski rentals. The private beach was nice, although there was a lot of people at the beach at all times of the day, we never ran into a problem finding a spot in the sand for our things on the private beach. Best trip ever!!

Miramar trip
Our family vacation with 16 members was great partly due to our stay at this house. It met all our needs to accommodate everyone. The manager responded in a timely manner when the lock on the back door would not work. The pool was a plus that was enjoyed by everyone especially the children. Pool table was a hit but the foosball & ping pong table need updating. It would have been nice to have a master suite downstairs so that senior adults would not have to go upstairs to have a private bathroom but that is the fault of the builder. The only downstairs bathroom needed to be used by everyone during family time. We would stay here again if we come back to Miramar/Destin area.

Good location- could be better condition
Booking the home was easy & as questions came up before we headed out of town the owner responded quickly.
Driving there I contacted owner to obtain codes to enter neighborhood, beach and the home itself. I was Sent an email that contained two separate sets of codes for everything. I emailed 2 times pointing this out asking which codes to use and the owner responded they were in flight and would get back to me. Never did. We just tried every code and figured it out on our own. The next issue was parking. Listing states 5 cars. You can get two cars in the front driveway. Then your options are the 5 spots in the center of the court which were taken already. I called Owner advised we could park behind the house but that this was technically the neighbor’s yard and they may ask us to move. Thankfully they never did, but if they had I’m not sure where we would of parked bc the spots in the community were all taken and there is no street parking.
Lastly, this home needs TLC & fresh paint. Marks on walls and baseboards everywhere the couches in the living room are very used with the fake leather peeling off and badly cracked. Simple things like weeds growing all over the pool deck we’re just very disappointing given the price we paid to stay here. The grill’s electric starter didn’t work we had to light it manually and the wall it’s against is covered in black soot.
The toilet on the main floor master could only be flushed once an hour because that’s how long it took for the tank to fill with water again.
Location was good truly half a block walk to the beach upon entering the beach there are steep steps so be careful carrying wagons and kids down.
I didn’t communicate further with the owner after asking about parking because I didn’t want to waste my vacation going back and forth with him. I’d rather make due, leave an honest review for others to be aware of & just not use this place again. Pictures on this listing, (as most usually are) overstate the condition of this home.

Beautiful property, could use a few small repairs. Stove was hard to work but could use. The supplies need to be better organized and some utensils updated. Not sure if a elevator can be installed but would be a huge asset.
