About this property

Open Spring & Summer! Beautiful poolside & gulf view 2 bedroom condo/ sleeps 6

The exclusive, low density 36 unit Emerald HIll condominium complex offers a quiet family-friendly escape. It is the perfect 30-A vacation spot! The property provides an expansive private beach, large swimming pool, landscaped lawns, and adequate parking. EH has just undergone a major exterior renovation!

These our most recent summer 2024 reviews:
“…we’ve had the best few days…we had quit coming to 30-A because it was just so crowded. Emerald Hill is the best location. The kids have biked everywhere. Your beach is perfect-not crowded like some of the others we’ve experienced- that’s the best part.” C. Lassiter
“If anyone is wanting to go to the beach this is an awesome place to stay. The owner is so organized and she has everything ready for you to have a beautiful, relaxing time right on 30-A. We rented bikes from across the road and never had to drive our car!” A. Bowman

Our unit has not been available during renovation, but we are now ready to rent again. The beautiful Emerald Hill buildings and grounds are an ideal spot for a vacation along the 30-A beaches of Northwest Florida. We are located on the south side of 30-A, so there is no road to cross to go to the beach. The beach is a 30 second walk from our condo and is easily accessible by a sidewalk and boardwalk. The spacious private beach, with gated access, provides plenty of beach space for all EH occupants. Our beach is never crowded! With the perfect location in the center of quaint highway 30A communities, EH allows easy access to Seaside, Watercolor, Grayton, Alys Beach, Watersound and Rosemary Beach. All of these areas are connected by a walking/biking path. Relaxation begins the moment you turn onto scenic 30-A and is complete when you setup inside our remodeled 1500 sq.ft. three level townhome.

Our unit, 'Emerald Escape', is the perfect place to spend your vacation. It overlooks the beautiful pool and offers gulf views. The upper level has 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The primary bedroom has a comfortable king size bed, seating area, private bathroom, large closet, and private balcony. The neutral linens and Italian art with blue and green tones create a peaceful retreat. The second bedroom has a queen bed, twin bunk beds, closet, and a private bathroom.

The main floor has a living space with leather sofa and club chair seating, spacious kitchen, dining table with seating for 6, half bath, laundry/storage room with full size washer and dryer, and balcony. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless appliances, and barstools. Kitchen cabinets are filled with everything needed to prepare meals and eat in style. Gather around a spacious wooden dining table with 4 chairs and a baguette or perch on barstools at the stone counter. Smart TVs are provided in the bedrooms and living room; simply log into your streaming service. Additionally, the condo is equipped with high speed Mediacom internet with log in and password provided.

Two balconies provide outdoor living with a dining table for enjoying meals, high top table for happy hour, and rocking chairs for relaxing. Outdoor furniture is comfortable poly wood purchased in 2021. The entry level is a garage for parking 1 car with storage space for coolers, beach bags, floats, and toys. Hooks are provided for drying towels.

After purchasing our vacation home, we spent six months renovating the entire unit and updating all contents. Fresh paint, new porcelain tile floors and original artwork evoke a calm, spa-like feeling. Guests appreciate the location, design, contents, and comfort of our unit and return each year. Imagine your family and friends relaxing in this luxurious space. We love our vacation home and think that you will, too! Checkout our reviews!
We strive to accommodate our guests and keep an open line of communication. Our 4.9/5.0 rating is important to us.

All EH 2 bedroom units are a townhouse design with a floor plan providing storage at the entry level and privacy on each of the 2 upper levels; there are 2 staircases. This design might not be ideal for toddlers or anyone with difficulty climbing steps.

Excellent location

Property was roomy and perfect for 3 kids. Publix is close and everything you need to cook and store is available. The two huge balconies and sliding doors make for a lovely sound with the ocean waves. We felt the location was the perfect distance from busy seaside yet close enough to enjoy seaside shopping and dining.

THE most comfortable mattresses my son and I have ever slept on!! In both bedroom! Shared spices and a few common condiments make it nice. Replenished by leaving remaining DW pods, fabric sheets, and laundry detergent!! Beach access is awesome!! Great communication with owner!

Very nice place

Came with 4 teenagers & had plenty of room. The beach is a1 minute or less walk from the condo. Great views from the second and third floor balcony. Beach store is right across the street if you run out of anything. Kitchen is well stocked. Bathrooms are updated. Everything very clean. Had a wonderful stay

No complaints.

Perfect location. Beautifully furnished. Spacious. Clean. The fact that there were basics in the kitchen like condiments and spices is such a small but HUGE touch. “Use and replace”. Will definitely look to rent again.

Well-equipped, clean, attractive townhouse

We really enjoyed our stay in this comfortable, spacious townhouse. It's not on the beach, faces the pool and gulf can be seen (and heard) in the distance. The property is well-equipped with everything needed in the kitchen (including a bin of spices), and there are books, games, DVDs, etc. The WiFi could be better -- very spotty -- but otherwise we were pleased with this unit and enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful family vacation!

We loved everything about our family vacation to Seagrove beach and this condo was a big part of making it so great. We loved being able to walk a minute to the beach and we spent much of our time playing in the ocean and sand. The pool was also fantastic and we enjoyed late afternoons playing there and getting to know other guests in neighboring condos. The condo accommodations were perfect for our family. The decorations were lovely, the kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals while we were there. The location was close to many of the different beachside communities like Seaside, Watercolor, Greyton, Seacrest, etc. We hope to vacation in Seagrove again and would check this condo first for availability - it was that great!

Perfect home away

We were two moms from Texas looking for a "mommy break" and we got just what we wanted. Our stay at Emerald Escape was absolutely beautiful in every way! The owners have thought of everything! Quality furnishings, great books, movies, games, etc. Location is exceptional and the pics do not do it justice as it is very spacious. It was also spotless! Beds were very comfortable! Slept like a baby. In anticipation of returning with my husband and children, I tested one of the bunk beds and it also was comfortable and large enuff for a teen/adult. I could go on and on, but will simply say do not hesitate to stay here. You will not be disappointed. We look forward to staying again!

Beautiful condo at my fav beach!!

Beautifully decorated condo with incredibly comfortable mattresses. Overlooking the well maintained pool and just a short walk to the beach. The owner has considered every amenity including isolating fans with noise makers, a magnifying makeup mirror, games, dvds. I wish one or two bikes would’ve been included, but that in no way would prevent me from staying here again. We were told the WiFi isn’t always reliable, but it was never an issue as long as the TV cabinet stayed open. The condo is a short bike ride into Seaside, as well as several restaurants and Subway is directly across the street. The condo/driveway sits directly on 30A and we were worried about the noise from the road, but you couldn’t hear anything from inside. We loved everything about this condo!

A Great Place To Stay!

This property is clean, inviting and had everything we needed! The spacious balconies overlook the pool with visible Gulf Views and were the perfect place to relax when not on the beach. The beach was a short walk through a gated entrance and it is a private section just for Emerald Hills guests. We met several other families staying at the condos so it is very family oriented. If you are considering this property and you can navigate stairs, I would say "Do It". I am glad I did and would not hesitate to go again.

A lovely stay for Thanksgiving

What a special place for a holiday. This two bedroom haven has all the comforts of home with the added delights of a simple and welcoming walk to a sugary white beach with emerald waters. We loved our stay and found everything we needed for a special Thanksgiving with our two young adult sons who drove in from separate locations to meet us. In fact, we all agreed that the couch is the most comfortable one we have every sat on and the patios (family room and master bedroom) were favorite perches to share afternoon teas and family stories. Thank you for sharing such a special place with us. It is in our memory book along with a historic Iron Bowl that we all enjoyed together in this beautiful home.
