Spring Break at the Beach

Property was excellent, beautiful landscaping and views and maintenance was always taking such good care of the property and site. As far as the unit itself, the beds were comfy and we had most everything we needed. EXCEPT— oven mitts and extra pillows and blankets for the pullout couch. The one sheet and fuzzy blanket were NOT enough to keep us warm on the bed without cranking the heat way up. Also, they gave us pillow cases for the pullout couch but NO extra pillows. So we had to use the throw pillows from the couch…and when we called for more blankets we were told that the unit is not provided more blankets. So to the next renter— bring your own extra pillows and blankets!!

Beach trip

Overall, our stay was wonderful. However, the sofa bed in the living room needs to be replaced. It was not able to be used. Also, in the master bedroom, the noise from the 1st floor sliding door to the pool area was horrible.

This unit 203 we will never stay in again!

The balcony furniture was in the living room upon arrival. We had to move that before we could even get to the master bedroom or the balcony. Carpet in the master was not attached to the baseboard (have photo) and it was buckled in the middle where you could step in a “hole”. Obviously no padding there. Outlets on balcony didn’t work. One outlet in the master bathroom didn’t work. Sliding door lock to the balcony from master bedroom didn’t work so you couldn’t lock it - remember this is 2nd floor easily reached with a ladder. Guest bathroom shower mostly came out the faucet instead of the shower head. Cushions on Sofa in living room were worn out. When sitting the person in the middle sank making the ppl on the ends fall to center. We mostly sat on the floor which is where we found peanuts in the rug obviously not vacuumed (have pics) The dead bolt lock is broken (have pics). The door stopper to front door is also broken (have pics) making it hard to get the luggage cart in and out - someone had to hold it. No cable in guest bedroom. TV in master so small my husband had to wear his distance glasses to watch TV. Stained curtains (have pics). Water damage spots on ceiling and top of wall above bathroom entrance (have pics). All in all worst unit we’ve ever stayed in over the last 20 years - also noted the 1st time we’ve rented through Vacasa. 🤔

Emerald towers 203 AVOID

The unit was extremely dirty, very dated, everything was extremely worn out. The dishwasher door to open you had to first open open the oven door and then angle the rack up. You also had to slam the door and hold it to get it to run. The dryer did not work the entire stay however we were compensated for that. The locks on the patio door did not work. The window lock to my 8 year olds room did not lock. The window is straight across from the elevator which made the situation scarier for us. Also the slam latch on the unit had been removed. We called Vacasa the day we checked in and finally heard back from them 2 days later. Maintenance showed up a day and half later. Everything you touched in the unit had a black film of filth. This is the 10th time renting other units from Vacasa and never had this horrible of a stay.

Worst room I have ever stayed in

As soon as we checked in the smell of the room was overwhelming..it smelt s bad. The furniture and carpet was wet, two of the three TVs were broken, internet did not work, bathroom sink & toilet bowl did not work. Black mold on the ceilings. Last night the carpet in the master bedroom was soaking wet on the closet & along the bathroom. Contacted Vcasa as soon as we checked in, am still dealing with them almost two weeks later. Nothing was fixed, sent a repair guy to fix the TV twice but he couldn’t, he did get the internet working. Plumber has an emergency so bathroom sink & toilet was never fixed. After two nights of a three night stay they dropped off an air purifier. Spent my short vacation on the phone, text & emails with so many different people from Vcasa, trying to get these problems fixed, no success. Still no compensation has been refunded to my credit card. Keep being told someone will call me back & no one does.

Beautiful view

Great location, easy access to beach and pool. Couple of things, Dishwasher is in a awkward location and could not open door very well. Also, condo smelled of mildew and could see on ceiling. Maintenance did come an spray and it was a lot better--With this said, I will rent this Condo again because it was still fabulous and they are doing alot of construction and upgrades to the building, it will be great to see next year.

Emerald Towers 203

The place was nice and roomy for my family of five for sleeping. There wasn’t much on TV and not many options for movies in down time unless you bring your own DVD’s. The view was beautiful from the room, but be aware the balcony is even with the pool and all incoming and outgoing beach traffic can be noisy. Beach access was quick and easy. Great location in Destin and the staff at the ET were nice and helpful.

Needs deep cleaning and updating

While this property is in a great location, it needs an overhaul. The carpets are gross and should be replaced, the kitchen sink looks like it doesn’t fit properly, the fridge needs a cleaning on the outside (inside was spotless) and the furniture and bathrooms need updating. We didn’t like that there isn’t a manager or something after 5:00, as we had a few unruly guests above us and with the pool outside of the windows, we heard everything. The washer, dryer, stove and microwave were all new and were great. Close to the beach and umbrellas and chairs are reasonable. Had it not been for the carpets and unruly neighbors, I’d give it 4 stars.

Roaches and Unit in horrible condition

We rented a condo from you March 19 thru March 23. For my husband birthday weekend..when we entered the unit and bedding had a weird chemicals smell to it. The same evening i had saw roaches in the kitchen coming out of the stove, toaster, and later in the bathroom. When we went to the office they said they were aware of the roach issue and that they had sprayed days before our arrival... now knowing that weird smell was the spraying of roaches. And the unit was in poor condition. The coffee maker did not work. The office stated they were aware and had told your company that it needed repairs and that appliances needed to be replaced due to the roach infestations. They said that they could not change our room or help us and that we needed to call you. I am demanding a partial refund on the unit due to the nasty roaches. That is truly horrible. How can you rent a condo with such issues it is a health hazard. I have photo of the infestation I can send

My favorite place to stay!

This is the 2nd time staying at Emerald Towers and it is still my favorite! The location is convenient whether you want to go to the harbor walk, water park, malls, or across the street for ice cream! It feels like home and I’d a short walk to the pool and beach. The one and only issue we had that needs to be followed up on is the washer and dryer slightly shocks you every time you touch it

Dissatisfied

The room didn't smell clean when we arrived. The lighting was very poor. Everything looked clean except the rug in the living room. We also found what could have been mold on the walls of the second bedroom. Needs updating very badly.
