I'm actually a little torn on how to rate this resort. Our condo was very nice and clean, the employees were very friendly and the view was beautiful. In my opinion, the Emerald Grande would be the perfect vacation spot for someone who wanted a beach vacation without really going to the beach. Unfortunately, me and my family LOVE the... More

We have stayed here at least three times. The last time was over Memorial Day Weekend. The great thing about Emerald Grande is that it has so much to do on the Harbour Walk. You just take the elevator down to several restaurants, bars, children's activities, watersports and shops. They have free concerts on weekends and other activities. They are... More

We go to the beach once a year for one week. For the past several years we have stayed at Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. This year we decided to try Emerald Grande Harbor Walk Village in Destin. We booked a 2 bedroom condo for 4 nights ($2,000.00) We usually spend $1,300-1,600 but decided to pay a little more this... More

This review is long overdue. We had our destination wedding over Labor Day weekend 2012. We chose this venue after looking at 11 different wedding venues in the Destin and Rosemary Beach areas. We fell in love with the Harborview room and knew that it would be perfect for our reception. We held the ceremony at Destin Methodist. Originally we... More

Emerald Grande is conveniently located at the Harbor Walk Village which is located in main artery of Destin. There are many nice restaurants, bars with live music, and various activities within a walks reach. Emerald Grande has a private beach that can only be accessed via ferry which can be a bit of an inconvenience. As you have to wait... More

Beautiful property. The condos are amazing with beautiful views. I would have given this a full 5 star review had their been an activities room for teens, but was told they recently changed the activities/game room into a gift shop so my teens were bored to tears when we were stuck inside due to rain. The food in the cafe... More

We recently stayed at the Emerald for a family vacation. It was a lovely experience for the entire family! Tons to do for the entire family on the water and off. I only wish I had more time to enjoy it - not enough hours in the day to do everything. The service were great, rooms were nice and clean!... More

I stayed here with a large group and they accommodated us all perfectly. This hotel is absolutely perfect, from the staff, to the abundant available activities and delicious food, there is no better place to vacation in Destin. There are tons of shops, first rate restaurants like Harry T's and endless recreation options. Snorkeling, parasailing, dolphin cruises, jet skiing, and... More

I stayed here recently for a ladies weekend. What a treat to walk into such a beautiful condo with amazing views! And the amenities.... Water activities (like snorkling, paddleboarding and jet skis), shopping and the FOOD (Delicious) all within walking distance. The staff was amazing and very attentive when I lost my iPhone on the property (it was later found).... More
