Emerald Towers 303

We have stayed the last three years at Emerald Towers for a week in March! We just so happened to have lucked out by looking at websites for a place to stay. We found Emerald Towers and absolutely fell in love with it! The location is the best. We make it a girls week and we Uber from the airport and walk everywhere we go. It has plenty of eating areas to walk to and souvenir shops and a shopping center! We always walk to shopping and Uber back to the condo with full bellies and full shopping bags. The beach is right outside your door. We leave our husbands at home and they have peace of mind because we are in a gated community! You could not ask for any better of a place to stay than Emerald Towers! We will be back again next year! L & D

Great location and beautiful view

The condo and facility is 5-10 minutes from just about everything Destin has to offer. The condo was very clean and update with modern appliances and amenities. Beautiful view of the Gulf and Destin beach from the large balcony are family would highly recommend this unit.

Girls Trip 2023

This place was perfect for our girls trip! Very clean, which is super important to me! I don’t have one complaint about anything except that the washer & dryer broke right before we got there so we didn’t know until right before we arrived. It was inconvenient, but they went above & beyond to help us by refunding part of our money & washing our clothes for us! The kitchen was well stocked with pots & pans etc. The security guy on the grounds was great! He made sure people were out of pool by 10 so that it wasn’t too noisy. Very nice pool & pool area as well! Would definitely stay here again!

July Family Gathering

The condo we chose for our visit was very nice overall. The area was good but typically crowded as expected for the time of year. Smoking by other renters made for a nasty breeze on the balcony and sometimes it drifted into our condo. The cleanliness of the unit was less than desirable, we had to clean die to foul odor when we first entered and my son realized that the floor had been mopped with a dirty mop which left to odor. The appliances were good except the wine cooler/ice maker did not work and was dirty. Bottom line the place should have been cleaned better. We prefer not to have to clean what we rent before we settle in to be comfortable. Once we got things cleaned and odor out we enjoyed our stay. Thank You

Disappointed from Day 1

Construction during our stay that was not disclosed. Construction workers families pretty much took over the place while we were there. Your not allowed personal chairs or umbrellas on the beach and every morning although we were first in line front row beach chairs were never available and sold out so you could not even sit next to the water. I will also add no one was ever sitting in the chairs that were sold out. Unit was extremely dated and needs a lot of attention. Small metal stacking chairs used for dining room table. I will give high marks to the company we booked through as they were extremely responsive and apologetic to our issues. They provided a small refund although we will never stay on this property again.

TERRIBLE Experience! LESS than one star!

My family and I have rented MANY condos over the last 25 years. I can unequivocally say that this was the most awful experience that we ever had. We stayed at Emerald Towers in previous trips to Destin. The facility itself is nice and close proximity to the beach. The workout room is great and the pool is decent. (Although not heated) The problems we had were with the condo itself AND property management company, Panhandle Getaways. We called numerous times to have things rectified and tried to get ahold of them 6 times since we returned home, to no avail. Everyone that we spoke with at Emerald Towers from tenants to employees said they were the worst property management company. #1 On day of arrival we received a call saying the dishwasher and dryer did not work and that they would send a repair man out Friday. The hot water also did not work. The Towers maintenance man came up and turned it up. #2 Condo was FiLThy. The toilets had not been cleaned, there was dust and dirt everywhere, the curtains had what appeared to be blood on them. We always expect sand on the floor but there was sand everywhere and in the rug. #3 The sinks, bathroom counters, and vanity were disgusting & not wiped down. #4 The dryer DID NOT work even though they said it just made a noise but still worked. My daughter turned it on so we didn't have to go home with wet clothes and it was so loud, we could hear it when walking back from the pool. Every time something else didn't work we started saying..ok what next! #5 When we went to fix dinner the first night of the stay, we were HORRIFIED to find out that ALL of the dishes had been put away in the cabinets DIRTY. There was bacon grease, food, lipstick, and coke in the glasses and the silverware had pieces of food and grease on them. We had to go buy bleach to soak all of the dishes that we were going to use. The dishwasher and dryer never worked and the repairman said that he did not have the parts to fix either. #6 Everything was in disarray and the place is just awful and tired. Furniture is worn, TV's in both bedrooms did not work. #7 Bathroom outlet, two bedroom outlets and living room outlets did not work. #8 MBath hair dryer didn't work. It is unethical and unconscionable to rent a condo in this condition. We were angry and it made our Thanksgiving holiday stay very sad and uncomfortable. We have yet to have any callback from Panhandle Getaways OR Owner.

Emerald Towers 303

We have stayed at Emerald Towers the two previous years and have been extremely happy. Condo 303 was not updated with paint and a few cosmetics with the walls needed some attention to detail. Both bathtubs had drain problems. You were standing in water by the time done with shower. Toilet in master did not flush everything down with one flush, needed multiple flushes. Second bathroom the shower had weak pressure and sprayed haphazard and the door on the lavatory was loose and not working properly. Lever for the drain in shower would not work. March 5 we had storm and wind. The master sliders are not tight and the wind sounded like an airplane coming through the doors. The curtains were blowing like crazy. Most on the air seemed as it was coming in the top of the slider and then down the side between the two doors. Please feel free to contact,me with any questions. 913-209-2485. Thank you. Lu Johnson

Misleading Rental

The pictures were very misleading. We thought we were giving up the beach view for luxury, but ended up with neither. There were stains on the chairs and sofa so we didn’t use them. The paint was missing off kitchen cabinets. It looked like outdoor chairs at the dining table. The refrigerator was disgusting and made too much noise. The blender was old. Also why are their no rugs in the bathroom 🤷🏽‍♀️ The patio was not inviting. The master bathroom sucked for lack of a better word. It was a strange smell lingering in the rental. We sprayed Lysol to cover it up for our stay. The property listing said it had a lot of upgrades but I would say it had a few and needs a lot more. Whoever you are paying to clean this rental should be fired. Overall disappointed with the rental. However, Destin Beach 🏖 was beautiful with white sand and clear water. Also the pool was very nice. The other misleading thing was there were supposed to be 19 restaurants on the resort… No absolutely not🤦🏾‍♀️ We had to go off property for food. Also the free golf did not happen. You have to rent clubs and cart. We made the best of it, but seriously considered just leaving this rental and staying at the Hilton. Speaking of the Hilton, I had to pay fora 3 day pass to their spa facility Serenity by the Sea because this resort had NO SPA FACILITY as listed. This listing also did not have a state of the art gym as listed… not at all. It looked like a crime scene with yellow tape and everything. But thanks to Hilton Sandestin I had a spa and state of the art gym. I will not rent this rental again or use island getaways again. They should be honest. This room is for someone who just wants a place to lay their head down and doesn’t care about luxury or nice amenities. They get a negative 5 stars ✨ but since that’s not an option 1 star ⭐️.

The ice maker was not working upon arrival on Sunday, We called the front desk and texted the Panhandle Getaways. On Wednesday, 2 ice trays were left at our door. The master bedroom bed is lumpy. Beautiful views and condo fully stocked with everything you would need for the week. Overall, great experience.
