Spring Deals! Book Now! Gulf Front, Panoramic Views, Beach Supplies, Pool!


Welcome to Emerald Skye 41, your Beach Escape!
Beach = Happy!!!!

Book with a Local! We live full time in the Gulf Shores, only 10 minutes from this condo, and pride ourselves on taking great care of our guests. The area is awesome and we are happy to take time and share our knowledge.


Do you want an affordable Gulf front vacation with great amenities at low prices? Our Condo is for you! JUST UPDATED New stove, Washer Dryer, and Polywood Patio Furniture! Decorated with tasteful nautical decor throughout, our oceanfront corner unit has panoramic views of the beach and Gulf. There is NOTHING between you and the water... Dig your toes into the sugar white sand and relax, or play in the pool! (Heated March-November) This is nicer and more affordable than a hotel!

The corner unit has three extra windows so you have a 180 degree view of the beach and Gulf, from the comfort of your sofa. (Once you step into a corner unit, you won't be able to go back to an interior one! And don't be fooled, only corner units on the 4th, 5th and 6th floors have extra windows...) You can also sit on the private balcony and watch for a glimpse of the dolphins playing in the waves.

Perfect for families and affordable for couples, this one bedroom unit is loaded with extras to make your stay enjoyable. My husband and I have two children so we know how to make a place 'kid friendly'. We have put a lot of thought into setting up the Condo and have two TV's, DVD players, stereo, dvd library, board games, beach chairs, beach umbrella, and sand toys there for you to use. Of course there is also a fully equipped kitchen and washer/dryer if you need them!

The layout is great for kids. There is a bunk area and dresser in the hallway (my kids love the bunks!) that can be totally shut off from the rest of the unit. There is a door to the private bedroom with a king bed, and a pocket door between the bunk area and living area. Why pay for a two bedroom place, when all you really want is a place where you can put the kids to bed and close a door?!

Emerald Skye is a low density building (only 36 units) so the beach in front doesn't get jam-packed like it does in front of some of those giant high-rises. There is an elevator, covered picnic area, and an outdoor heated pool. Extra storage lockers on the ground floor give you a place to stash sand-covered stuff on your way to and from the beach. Our locker is fully stocked for you!

If you aren't familiar with Orange Beach, it is an awesome location. We have a little library of guidebooks and area information in the Condo for you to use. You can golf, shop, parasail, bike and hike in the state park, eat at great restaurants, go to the Blue Angel Museum or the Battleship (getting tired yet?) or you can hang out on the beach all day, and have pizza delivered in at night. The choice is yours!

Fabulous views
Wonderful location with private balcony. Corner unit! Nice layout with places to put luggage and toiletries. Conveniently located and just steps away from beach. Window by patio door would not stay open (just needs a stick) and beach gate access code was not updated on the info in the house. Great place and I would highly recommend

Snow Beach
Was a nice property, enjoyed the balcony. The condominium complex was older and the management company was not very good with property maintenance. We did like smaller number of condos in building, which led to less crowded beach. Verycommunication

A perfect winter getaway.
Our all-too-short stay was delightful. The property was as advertised with a delightful view of both the Gulf (from the balcony) and Eastward along the beach to Perdido Pass about a mile away. I can imagine sitting at the table drinking morning coffee and watching the Charter boats heading out for a days fishing in season. The Condo building next to us had a lighted private pier allowing us to watch the surf around the pier long after the sun had set. A delightful stay in an ideal location.

Solo Getaway
Ideal condo for me - just a few days at the beach to enjoy solitude and the ocean. Love that this condo is not one of the expensive high-rises. Communication with owner-excellent. Appreciated all the info provided for check in and check out. This condo provided excellent views of the Gulf - so enjoyed sitting on the balcony (in spite of 1 rainy day). Was a plus the owner had chairs available for use. Would recommend !!!

We enjoyed our stay at Emerald Skye. Communication with Janet was great. The unit had been cleaned well, but the couch and throw rug were stained and probably need to be replaced. The location was great. Even though the weather was bad much of the week, we enjoyed the views from the balcony and window over the dining table.

My husband and I spent 5 nights in Orange Beach at this condo. It was clean and in a great location near the pier with a great balcony space overlooking the ocean. We loved that the host provided chairs and umbrellas and we did not have to rent. Many restaurants near by. Highly recommend!

Orange Beach condo
The entire property needs to be updated. The tile flooring and grout should be professionally cleaned. I would not walk barefoot in the place. The bedroom smelled like a pile of wet soiled towels.

Family Time
My husband and I booked our trip months in advance to celebrate my husband’s birthday, but a couple of weeks before we left my husband’s youngest brother and his girlfriend moved closer to us. We were all talking one evening and decided that not only should his youngest brother and girlfriend ( who had never been to the beach) come but also his other brother and make it a really special trip. I contacted Janet, the owner, and she had absolutely no problem with us adding the family. We booked a one bed/one bath, and it slept six people. It was a little crowded but we made it work. The condo was beautiful and the views will make you never want to leave. There are plenty of places to go eat nearby and lots of things to do, besides go to the beach. We would definitely stay here again. We are planning another trip for next year but with a bigger unit. If my husband and I come back alone, we will definitely be contacting Janet again.

Beautiful location
We loved our stay at Janet’s condo! It was smaller than what we usually rent, but it still fit our family of 5 comfortably. Everything we needed was at our fingertips with a fully stocked kitchen, pool, and the gulf steps away! We saw all sorts of marine life daily, and it was such a peaceful and wonderful week. Janet was very responsive, and although we aren’t a family of complainers (what is there to complain about when you’re at the beach?!), I know she would have addressed any issues. We would definitely rent from her again!

Great place to stay
We really enjoyed our stay. Highlights: Super easy beach access on an uncrowded beach, easy rentals of beach chairs and umbrellas, plus extra chairs and umbrellas in the sand locker. The bed was creaky but comfortable, with lots of extra pillows and blankets if needed. It was very hot outside so the air units worked overtime but kept the unit cool. Lots of kitchen appliances and dishes in a very nice little kitchen. Perfect for two people!

About the host

Hosted by Janet Owner of VRBO 37135, 351644, 2134352

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in Pittsburgh PA, but always loved the beach. After jobs took us to Clearwater, FL and Wilmington, NC, we moved to Daphne, AL about 20 years ago with our two children and fell in love with the area. We purchased this unit at that time. (Emerald Skye 41, VRBO 37135) Jobs then took us to Columbus, OH and Kansas City, MO over the next 20 years but we were back to our beloved Gulf Coast several times a year. We purchased a two bedroom in 2011 (Surfside Shores 2305, VRBO 351644) and then in 2020 purchased a three bedroom (Legacy 402, VRBO 2314352). Janet has been managing the condos herself all this time.

We always knew we would be back full time, and in 2022 took the leap and moved into a house in the area! We can enjoy the Gulf Coast life and take even better care of our guests.

I manage the rentals myself, allowing me to keep costs low. We have have a great housekeeper and maintenance man, and pride ourselves on being super responsive to our guests! Our Condos have developed a loyal following of repeat visitors and we hope you become one of them!

Janet and John

Why they chose this property

There are very few affordable oceanfront units these days, and even fewer on a low density stretch of beach. We loved the unit and the beach from the moment we stepped inside!

What makes this property unique

We love the beach, at any time of year. We love watching for dolphins and see them most every day playing around the pier. I am an amatuer photographer, and I am up at sunrise every day taking pictures...My children and husband are tolerant about my photo shoots, as long as I don't expect them to wake up early or pose! Shopping, siteseeing, and eating out are always fun, but for us, it is all about the beach.
