The house was very nice and within walking distance to the beach. We walked the beach every morning with our dog (who absolutely loved the top balcony watching everything). Kids spent hours at the beach, we went fishing on the Okaloosa Pier which we saw dolphins, baby shark, stingray, jellyfish it was awesome. Went sailing on AJ's sailboat and saw more dolphins, had an awesome time. The only negative was we thought the main king bed was not very comfortable, but other than that everything was great.

We had a great time. We have been to Emerald Shores each of the last 10 years and this was our first time in this house. The layout of the house was great and there was adequate space. There were a couple of negatives. A tiny television in the master bedroom was hard to see. Also the wifi was not really good since the router was on the 3rd floor. Really bad connectivity. And the grill was in bad shape and not functional. I like to grill when we're in Destin, but not this time. Other than that, everything else was and we will continue coming to Emerald Shores.

So glad you enjoyed your stay at Helgoland. It is a super nice home with nice upgrades. Recently painted too! Will check the internet. There should be a range extender there too. Maybe it wasn't working properly at the time.

The property was in a beautiful neighborhood with nice amenities. We did not like the umbrella service taking up all the first and second row positions and then felt as if we had to rent from the company for a spot at the "private beach". We ended up going to the public beach! Also, the home was not very clean and the master bedroom bed was TERRIBLE. It needs replacing. Overall, our vacation was very nice and Crystal Waters was wonderful to work with but I would check up on the cleaning company.

So glad you enjoyed your stay at Helgoland! It is a great house in the best vacation neighborhood along our stretch of beach! The private beach cabana is less than 1/4 mile, maybe a 4 to 5 minute walk for most people! The cabana is private and codes are needed to go onto and up from the beach! There are also 2 pools and a tennis court!

Helgoland was a good place to stay! Great location and in a nice, clean community. It was a very spacious place and had lots of room. Very nice beach access and not a very long walk to the beach. I was disappointed though in some things. This place needs updating. Some of the furniture was very "used" and it was noticeable. Also, pots and pans in the kitchen need to be replaced bad. They are very worn. Dishwasher leaked and it was reported. Towels in the bathroom...there was only bath towels and hand towels. The washer and dryer was up to par...very nice. This is not a bad place to stay, but I just feel that it needs updating and needs some TLC in the decorating department.

So glad you enjoyed your stay at Helgoland. It is a big 3 story house with lots of room. The pots and pans have been replaced! Thank you for bringing that to our attention. We do provide bath towels, hand towels, and wash cloths. It is too difficult to provide beach and pool towels. The washer and dryer are new and the dishwasher is about a year old.

We left at 9am like the document said and had to kill an hour before heading back to cabana. Once I got to the cabana, the lady was extremely rude. Other than that Leah was awesome.

The house has plenty of room, but compared to some of the others in the same neighborhood it's furnishing needs updating and the carpet on the stairway needs to be deepcleaned, Kitchen is cheaply done.
