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

Take advantage of all the discounts available. Full Week, early booking, and members only deals...

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! Recently update with 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 Nov-March) 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 (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!

Thought it was 2 bedrooms. It’s one large bedroom and bunk beds in the entry way. Good for a couple with small kids, they can be seen from master room, but these bunk beds are not made for a standard adult. The 2 that were suppose to sleep here, slept on couch bed instead. Other than that, the view was spectacular and the condo was clean. It was easy to talk to the host through text message.Love their sign in books, reading those was refreshing. Will definitely go back with just my partner.

Great location with awesome view and accessibility to the beach. Bed was comfortable. Beach equipment and their location on the ground floor were very helpful. Good communication and check-in and check-out were smooth. Older property with an elevator that was out of service twice during our week-long stay. Maintenance guys say the elevator is being replaced this year.

Everything was good. Just didn't have any toilet paper except the half roll that was on the holder. The dishes were put up dirty. I sent pictures to the owner because its probably the cleaning crew. The condo could definitely use a DEEP CLEANING. The view was great! The location was great! The bed was comfy!
