  The location was great. However the property is need of updates. Rugs in the condo are stained. Some of the furniture was worn - the blue/white striped chair. Tv in the third bedroom didn’t work. WiFi only really worked when in the living room. For the price I paid I would expect better quality.

  We found location last minute after our initial plans were changed by Tropical Storm Eta. Location & views are awesome! Can’t say enough about the view & balcony, just stunning! Would have liked updated & more comfortable living & dining room seating. And the living room/dining room carpets are very stained so that’s a bit disconcerting. Kitchen not updated but is fully functional with plenty of room.

  Resort Rentals is a great problem-free agency. The staff are always so nice and professional. We appreciate no deposit required. You pay half at time of booking and pay the balance a few weeks before arriving. You don't have to wait weeks after check out for a deposit to be returned to you. Emerald Isle has amazing condos that feel like a retreat away from home. Pool and beach are never crowded which we love. The property of Emerald Isle is always very clean. Family have stayed here 5 years in a row and we will return in the years to come.

  a guest from Gainesville, FL recommends this vacation rental

  This was our 3rd year over Christmas holidays. We love the unit, area and amenities for our extended family. The pool is wonderful and the beach and view are terrific—great sunsets! Just a few items need attention to make it perfect! It would be great to get the keys closer to the unit rather driving so far out of the way. Other issues needing attention were the drain in master bedroom bathroom did not drain and faucet barely produced water. Also, unit next door sharing a bedroom wall had alarm clock going off for several hours at midnight, keeping our kids awake. This was eventually resolved but elderly owner needs to be made aware. There needs to be recycling bins in the unit. There also needs to be more than one luggage cart available during holiday rentals. More guest parking would be nice.

  Great time w/ problems:
  
  One key-set did not work in 502 door. Both keys worked on keyset with “L” stamped on 1-key. The other keyset had a working Lobby key (no stamp), but door key does not work.
  
  We’ve had key problems at other Emerald Isle units.
  
  Inside 502 door, cover off viewing doorbell – NP just unsightly.
  
  Big TV cable box does not support some channels which are avl in master BR, e.g. Ch10, 37, some sports. Master BR TV wand needs new batteries (AA).
  
  Toaster only toasts 1-side of bread.
  
  Biggest prob: Master BR sink drains 2 slow & both BR faucets too slow H20 flow. Loved the shower heads fast flow. Cuts shower time in 1/2.

  a guest from Woodstock, GA does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The condo was spacious and had a great view but we probably would not stay there again. The kitchen was very outdated, some of the living room furniture was dirty, several dining room chairs had broken seats, the front bedroom did not have an overhead light and one of the lamps was broken. Some of the positives were that the bathrooms were beautiful, the pool was great, the beach was awesome and it was nice to have a cabana to rent.

  • Manager Responded on 12/5/2019

    Hi Stacy! Thank you for your feedback from your stay at Emerald Isle. We are happy that you enjoyed the beautiful beach and the pool area on site. And yes, the owners did a great job remodeling the bathrooms! We are so sorry to hear you were unhappy with the condition of some of the furnishings. We normally receive a lot of great feedback about this condo. We have addressed any maintenance issues. We really wish you had contacted our office during your stay. If there is anything that is not up to par we are happy to have someone come out to address any cleaning or maintenance issues right away. We want you to be fully comfortable during your stay with us. Thank you again for your feedback and please let us know if we can help with a future visit to our area beaches.

  a guest from St. Louis, MO does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The rental property was cute, had good amenities, bathrooms were nice, pretty beach, good size and pretty clean. My biggest complaint and why I don’t think my family would book through resort rentals again is because of the lady at the front desk. She is incredibly rude, no matter now polite you are or what you talk about she is was (using appropriate words) a butt. Also it smelled slightly musty in the condo building, may have some mold growing. Otherwise we really loved and enjoyed Emerald Isle.

  • Manager Responded on 9/9/2019

    We are so glad to hear you enjoyed this beautiful beachfront condo! We are sorry if you felt anyone was rude or not friendly towards you, that definitely is not feedback we ever receive and we are sure it was just an outside circumstance and nothing directed towards you. Everyone has their off days and we are sorry if that carried over to you at all. Please do not let this be a reason you would not return, it was most definitely a "fluke". We hope to see you back.

  My family and I have been vacationing in Florida since 1992 when my kids where born. We started out going to the Emerald coast of Destin area. Now that kids are adults we have moved further south to the St. Pete Beach area. It is a annual family tradition to spend a week together on a beach. We have settled in at the Emerald Isle located in beautiful North Redington Beach. We love the area and the beach is awesome.

  Timothy L from Westerville, OH recommends this vacation rental

  4 star property w/ great price and limited number of units. Pros: Beach front with awesome view of gulf and pool, on property parking, elevator, shared coin op laundry alternating floors, very FIRM queen beds. Basic cooking items, plates, silverware etc provided. Renovated bathrooms with dated but fully functional kitchen. Cons: High flow shower heads deplete hot water supply quickly with multiple guests. One bedroom did not have TV set up. Suggestions to owner or tenants, supply /bring basic spices if you cook - a small amount of salt and pepper was provided. bring/buy coffee tea bags, sugar or sweetner, and suggest a small kitchen scrub sponge / cloth and dish soap in addition to dishwasher detergent. Loved the location close to convienence store, easy access to nearby restaurants / bars & John's Pass for souviener shopping. 3 BR arrangement worked great for our party of two couples and two singles. We loved it and the Resort Rentals team was terrific to work with! We'd certainly return and DO RECOMMEND this unit at the Emerald Isle in North Reddington Beach, FL.

  The location was great. Close to several restaurants and shopping. The beach was beautiful! Very clean, water crystal clear and plenty of room for soaking up the sun, as well as playing volleyball etc. Overall it was a great vacation. One complaint, the furniture in our condo was in poor shape. And not very clean. The patio furniture was in poor shape as well. I also wish there was an easier way to go from the condo to the pool to the beach. I appreciate the security, but you needed a key to get to each location. We had a group of 6 and seemed the 2 sets of keys were never where we needed them to be to get to the next location. Other than that I would definitely go back! Loved the area!

  • Manager Responded on 7/18/2018

    Thank you for your feedback from your stay with us and we will be sure to take a look at the furnishings in the condo, thank you for sharing that! We do understand that the key system can get to be a bit much as you come and go, it is for everyone's security though like you said but we will share this with the condo association as well as they ultimately are in charge of the system on the grounds. Outside of that, we are so glad you enjoyed the location and the awesome stretch of North Redington Beach that the Emerald Isle is on and we hope to see you back for a future visit!

  When asking our nephew what he wanted for graduation, he said the "beach"! WE have rented this particular 3-br condo before so we knew what we were getting and the area. We could not be more happy with the location and for the most part the condo itself. The condo is showing some wears, but that is somewhat expected with the amount of use the condo gets. The rental company has always be receptive when we have brought things to their attention. We love the view of the gulf and the nearby restaurants. The unit does not have washer/dryer in the unit, however they are some located in a common area. We plan on staying here again with our family.

  The location is great. The rental needs new patio furniture, the 3 chairs were broken. I would suggest the carpet be replaced in the living room dining room with something like laminate flooring. The carpet was dirty. The ottoman in the living room was all ripped and the living rooms furniture is soiled in spots. Time for some new furniture. Just a little sprucing up makes a big difference. overall the view from the deck is beautiful. We did enjoy our vacation there and look forward to returning just hope there is a little sprucing up. Thanks again.

  Lisa E from Wesley Chapel , Florida recommends this vacation rental

  We stayed for a week at this rental and we had a wonderful time. The location was amazing couldn't be any closer to the beach. Close to some wonderful restaurants and shopping. The place was very nice, the bathrooms have been remodeled and were so pretty. Hopefully they will redo the kitchen to match, but the kitchen did have everything that you need. The building has only 24 units and was very quit. Pool was very nice. The only draw back was there wasn't a washer or dryer in the unit. They did have them on the 2th, 4th and 6th floor, $2.00 to wash and dry. Bring lots of quarters, if you plan on doing laundry. The unit had lots of towels but bring your own beach towels. The furniture was ok, couches were comfy, so was large chair but it was a little dirty. The chairs in the dining room could of used a little support under them but they did the job. Beds were ok, pretty comparable to other places we have stayed. I would definitely recommend this rental to my friends and family.

This is one location that is not set up that way but if in room washer and dryer are a priority for you, we do have other locations that do provide that that we would be happy to help you with. Beach towels are one item that we ask our guests to bring as we have found they are always going missing, so yes please bring beach towels! :-) Thank you again for staying with us and we hope to have you back on our beautiful beaches again soon!

  a guest from Maiden, Nc recommends this vacation rental

  Overall the stay was nice. However, there were some things we were not pleased with. The dishes were dirty upon arrival in the drawers so we had to wash everything. We didn't like the parking since it was only one spot you couldn't have other vehicles for a big condo or guests. The keys that come with the building you couldn't access the back door (no ones keys worked). And lastly the cleaning company. They don't speak English and we're extremely rude when trying to get out on time they made it almost impossible...they wouldn't let us on or use the revelatory we literally had to take the stairs or wait for 15mins until they were done using it causing checking out on time to be difficult and that was us thinking we were getting out an hour early we wouldn't have to rush. Also the condos' walls are very thin. We constantly heard the people above us running and talking. But Other then that the experience was great. We enjoyed the size of the condo and that convenience to the beach.

  • Manager Responded on 7/26/2017

    Thank you for this post. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the condo itself and the location, it really is a great spot directly on the beach! We are very sorry to hear about the other items that you has listed here! We most certainly will be sure to pass this over to the head of our housekeeping department so she is aware of this feedback. We are so sorry if you felt rushed by this, we will be sure it is addressed and please accept our apologies on their behalf. In regards to the keys, we will take a look at this and also notify the condo association should it be something that is going on with the actual lock. Please don't ever hesitate to contact us at our office with any of these problems and we are more than happy to help how we can!! We want you to be totally comfortable during your stay so let us know if we can do anything for you. We hope to see you on our beautiful beaches again for a future vacation.

  The place had an amazing view and outdoor patio! Bathroom upgrades were nice. Loved the location.
  Negatives..the carpet was all dirty and stained. The keys didn't work half the time Same with the intercoms. It would be nice to have 3 sets of keys since we had 6 people staying in the unit. Also missing light bulbs. Called and nobody ever came to replace them. I would stay there again if the carpet would be replaced.

  We stayed here in April, 2017. This was a lovely spacious condo with a beautiful view! The only thing I would have to say is that the carpet in the living room and dining room area should be replaced with some kind of other flooring. It seems to be old and didn't look very clean. All in all a very nice condo.

  Rental process was simple,fast and convenient. Location was great, very easy to find different stores and entertainment. The rental was great being able to watch the sunset off the balcony every night was amazing! Over all clean place however rugs and furniature could use a good cleaning. Kitchen was functional and a good size, cabinets a little outdated but was not a problem. Both bathrooms were very modern and nice, also bedroom were good sizes.

  We throughly enjoyed our stay. The view was incredible, the rental was spacious and clean. I liked the scurity to acess to the pool and beach, since i have young children.

My boys are already planning to return!

  My overall experience was good. The condo was clean and nice. The unit above us always sounded like they were going to come through the ceiling on us . The only thing I didn't like was the washer and dryer, you have to pay $1.00 to wash and to dry your clothes. I think they need to offer the washer and dryer free to the their guests.

  • Manager Responded on 6/29/2016

    Thanks for your post! We are glad you had a good experience, minus the noise above! We do have other properties in our program that offer in room washer and dryer and perhaps that could be a good fit for you the next time around. The Emerald Isle property is one location that has shared laundry facilities.

  Condo was in great shape. Clean, roomy, all amenities were there. A couple light bulbs were out but maintenance fixed them quickly. Had a great time all except a baseball team/parents that were staying there for a tournament. They knocked on our door several times a day/night, shot fireworks off in the middle of the night and ran around making noise a lot. Called the cops one night due to an unruly teen and drunken parents. Other than that, it was a great relaxing time. One suggestion would be to change the gate key locks and condo door locks to a combination or electronic key card. The keys stick a lot and are a hassle.

  Our family absolutely fell in love with our home away from home. The only thing that stood between our scenic level of the Gulf of Mexico was beautiful white sand. We had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy ourselves. The condo overlooked a private pool with security patrolling the grounds. Our Condo was very well equipped with all of the necessities to make our family feel comfort and welcomed. We loved the location as it was not too crowded. Excellent places to eat within a quick drive. We are planning to return next year.

There is only 2 things wrong with this property the hot water heater is not big enough or its going bad, you only get around 5 min of luke warm water but we got use to it. Also the master bedroom bed is hard as a rock, but we got use to it. I would stay here again.

  The property has excellent beach access and a well maintained landscaped yard. The unit was clean and well maintained with the exception of some stains on the beige rug. It took us some time to remember our keys for the numerous locked gates, fortunately the other tenents were very helpful with the gates. On checkin day the maintenance man had taken my assigned parking, so I took someone elses parking spot causing general chaos and anarchy. However, this was quickly resolved. Clean beach, clean pool and centrally located.

  Wayne G from Knoxville , Tennessee recommends this vacation rental

  I have been vacationing in the Clearwater area for the last 55 years and in the North Redington Beach area for the last 20 years. This was the first stay at Emerald Isle. It was very enjoyable except for the locked doors and gates 24/7. Suggest the gates be left unlocked during the day. The condo was very nice, but needs tile in the living areas. Hope to stay here next year.

  Harlan P from Frankfurt, KY recommends this vacation rental

  The condos were very good, but since there is no full time person on the property, everything required a key. A key was required to get in to pool to get out of pool, to go to beach, to come back from beach to get in lobby, to get into pool restrooms, etc. We had 9 folks in two condos and you can imagine with only 4 sets of keys the problems it presented. Otherwise everything was fine. Parking was limited to 1 per condo and only 2 for visitors and it caused competition for the visitor parking.

  We really enjoyed our vacation this year although there needs to be some changes. I thought there was one too many locked gates!As soon as we pulled up in the parking lot and walked into the lobby door we were litterally verbally attacked and insulted by Elmer who happened to be living in the condo next door to us! He asked my husband if he knew how to read, yelled at us because he said we did not know the cart rules, etc! Not a pleasant way to start our vacation when we had just drove 19 hrs. We rebooked our condo for next year but I can tell you we heard alot of complaints from other ppl staying at Emerald Isles on Vacation that said they would never stay there again. They were also yelled at constantly from people who lived at Emerald Isles. Elmer left us alone for the most part after the first day once he realized we were there to relax and not 'destroy' the bldg. He didn't have anything to yell at us about because we kept to ourselves and hung out with our friends at the Ram Sea everyday. So, sorry to complain but that is what we experienced while we stayed there. We like the location of the condo and will stay there again next year.
  Thank you.

  Garry S from Pound, VA recommends this vacation rental

  Overall our stay was quite enjoyable. The property was in a nice location with a very wide beach. The beach was scraped daily to smooth the sand and remove any debris. The fishing pier is within 100 yards of the condo but causes no issues with swimming or other water related activities.
  
  The condo was also conveniently located within 1.5miles of the Pinellas Parkway and within 2 miles of Madeira way. There are also plenty of restaurants within a 1-3 mile range so there is no need to drive quite a ways from the condo. Just a block or so up the street there is a souvenir shop as well. There is also a Shopping Mall located within 5-7 miles which is called Tyrone Square. So, overall the property has many great features.
  
  The only issues we had while staying at Emerald Isle was related to the locks on the property. The resort had two locking gates on the property to keep non guests from using the pool and also a locking door to keep non guests from entering the condo building.
  
  The locks seemed like a constant hassle for everyone on the property. Often you could expect to be standing at the pool gate for 5-10 minutes working to get the lock open. The main condo doors would often open quicker but would still take some time to open. The door to our personal unit also took a few minutes to open on a regular basis as well.
  
  So, this became quite a nuisance. A locksmith was called to the property but the locks were only sprayed with a little lubricating oil which did nothing to help resolve the problem.
  
  Another thing that becomes a little inconvenient is that keys are picked up and returned to the resort rental location which is in St. Petersburg. It would be nice to just leave the keys in the condo and forego a trip back to the resort rental location. There was only two sets of keys as well. In our condo we had six people so it became an issue when several people wanted to different things. There simply wasn't enough keys to go aro

    We are glad you had a good experience with us and the locks were changed in the fall of 2010....!

  Roomy condo.Great location.Condo equipped with everything you need.We were disappointed in the kitchen. Utensils were not in the best condition.(ie.pots & pans,dishes and silverware). Also parking is very limited. We had 2 cars and had to pay to park 1 of them.Overall we enjoyed our stay tremendously and would stay at the same condo again.

  The unit was spacious, very clean & the unit layout was awesome. The kitchen was stocked with every utensil you needed & they were in good shape. The dishwasher was fantastic because it held sooooooooooo many items at once. The grounds are very well maintained & you won't find a cleaner pool. The staff is friendly, professional & helpful. We also enjoyed meeting & talking with the other guests - many were returnees. It is a small condo building (24 units)by beach standards & that was a real plus - very quaint & quiet! The assigned parking space was a real plus. We had a fabulous fun family vacation & plan to return next summer.

  Very nice condo and very clean. There are not a lot of restaurants/bars in walking distance so be sure to have some sort of transportation. Need keys to get in and out of everything which can be very annoying. Pool was probably the cleanest pool that I have ever seen.
