Renovated Beachfront Condo w/ KING bed - Close enough to hear the waves!

H&M Getaways proudly presents Emerald Towers West Unit 2001.

AMAZING VIEWS! Come enjoy fabulous full frontal beach views in this beautifully renovated 2nd floor condominium. Our 2-bedroom 2-bath unit is just one floor up, which means better views and more privacy than the ground floor but no need to wait on the elevator! Enjoy unobstructed views of the beautiful Emerald Coast from the KING master suite, private balcony, kitchen, and living area. Our condo faces South toward the Gulf, so you will be able to enjoy BOTH sunrise AND sunset from this lovely unit.

IDEAL LOCATION! Perfect for families! Our condo is located directly on the Gulf of Mexico, just a few steps from the clearest water and softest, sugar-white sand you will ever see! Our building, Emerald Towers West, is a well-maintained, 44-unit complex on Okaloosa Island. This Island is an ideal location because it is just 7 miles from Destin, so you can take advantage of Destin's many restaurants and attractions but still enjoy our less-crowded, family friendly beach. Free beach service—2 beach chairs and one umbrella—included with your stay (Mar-Oct).

KING MASTER SUITE WITH GULF VIEW! The Master bedroom is situated on the ocean-side of the building so guests can enjoy quiet, privacy, and a gorgeous ocean view! This luxurious bedroom features a comfortable King-sized bed with Tempur-Pedic mattress, en suite bathroom, large flat screen TV, and slider door providing direct access to the balcony. Fall asleep to the soothing sounds of the ocean waves and wake up to a gorgeous ocean-view!

COMFORTABLE 2ND BEDROOM! The second bedroom features a full-sized bed, twin-sized bed, and en suite bathroom, as well as a flat-screen smart TV. Versatile to accommodate children or adults, with plenty of storage for luggage.

FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN! The newly updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, Keurig coffee machine, and ample pantry space. It is fully equipped with everything you need to make home cooked meals. Best of all, you can gaze at the ocean right in front of you while you stand at the sink! 4 counter stools and a 6-person dining table provide plenty of seating for your group to share meals together. Don't feel like eating in? Take advantage of the outdoor grilling area next to the pool! Or, explore one of the many amazing restaurant options on the Island. This location has over 15 restaurants within 3 miles.

COMFORTABLE LIVING AREA! The open-concept living area is comfortably furnished and features a 55-inch flat-screen smart TV with Samsung sound bar. We even have side tables with built-in USB charging ports for all of your devices! Kick back and relax after a long day at the beach and stream your favorite shows. Or, watch a movie from our complementary Blu-Ray collection. We also keep a small assortment of books and board games for the whole family to enjoy. Need extra sleeping space? No problem! Just pull out the sleeper-sofa with 3-inch memory foam topper. Our unit can sleep 7 comfortably!

Cozy and Comfortable
We enjoyed our stay the condo was so cozy and comfortable. It was like being at our own home. The view was amazing! We could walk out to the beach in less than a minute. Loved that it was beachfront with a shower to rinse off before going inside. We especially loved that the chairs and umbrella were provided with our stay. The condo was clean and well stocked. We had plenty of towels. We had all the tools needed to cook our own food. We enjoyed the local restaurants recommended by Hali. Highly recommend this place!! We will be back!

Awesome Gulf Front Condo
This is a great beachfront property with an awesome view of the Gulf. Spent my mornings having my coffee on the balcony and watching the dolphins jump around. We had a great time at the beach which is just steps away. The condo was very clean and the owner made the renting experience super easy. If you want a lot of traffic and packed beaches, go over to Destin. If you want a great laid back getaway with room to breathe, stay here. I look forward to coming back and staying here again someday.

The only thing better than this property is the host
This property is amazing! First off, the host is the best ive dealt with. I asked entirely too many questions and got same day friendly responses every time. About the property; ocean front, very clean, not crowded. I go to FWB every year and this is the best one I've stayed in yet. The building is less populated than others on the beach, so there's less competition for the beach chairs/umbrella. There's a gas station 2 mins away for any essentials, seriously it had everything. I took my girlfriend and two teenage girls and we were very comfortable. The room is cozy, you can lay in bed and see the ocean. The room had everything we needed from a blender to a strainer to can openers. There were 5 beach chairs on the balcony in case you need them. It's absolutely a 5 star room. If I had to nitpick my entire stay (9 days), I would mention two things: the pool is blah. Who goes to Florida for a pool tho?! And 2nd, the stove takes FOREVER to preheat. Seriously if you're going to bake, preheat 45 mins in advance!!
Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2022

About the host

Hosted by Hali Riechers

Host profile image
A little about your hosts: We are a military family originally from the Seattle area. We purchased this condo in 2020 to enjoy beach living before the Air Force sent us on our next adventure. We lived here for about a year with our baby, toddler, and Kindergartner while we renovated the space. It was a big project—especially living with 3 little kids in a 2-bedroom condo!—but we enjoyed the challenge, and we are so proud of the final results. We have moved on to our next station, but we plan to come back to the beach often. We have so many wonderful memories in this beautiful place! We love to host and help others make lasting memories too!

Why they chose this property

Super-convenient beach access! Just walk out the door, down one flight of stairs, and you are steps from the beach! The water is so close that you can hear the ocean waves from the master bedroom. We love waking up to the ocean view and starting and ending our days relaxing out on the balcony. You have a great view of sunrise AND sunset from our balcony!

Another reason we love this property is the location. Our building only have 44 units, so you will always be able to find a spot on the beach! Okaloosa Island is family friendly and less busy than Destin, but close enough that you can still take a short drive to Destin for all the attractions and shopping!

What makes this property unique

Quick and easy beach access. No waiting for the elevator.
Comfortable beds!
Gulf View from Master bedroom, Living room, and Kitchen
Beautifully renovated space.
