Summer vacation
Recent Guest, Smyrna, GA US
Very happy with this house. Lots of room. Great location. Very clean. Could invest in a bit nicer towels but for a week at the beach,they were ok. Also some of the locks didn’t work but they had parts ordered so they said.
Perfection!
Recent Guest, Alpharetta, GA US
The community, the home and the location were wonderful. The home was lovely and had plenty of room for our family of 10. The short distance to the beach and the pavilion were a bonus. There was a problem with the disposal before we arrived and we were notified prior to check in. It was fixed within a day and caused no interruption to our vacation. The staff at the gated community were friendly and helpful. Wonderful memories were made at this home. Thank you so much for your home.
Awesome place to stay
Michelle V., Wood Dale, IL US
Could have asked for anything better. We had 10
People including 4 children and it was perfect. It had everything we needed, walking distance to the beach and restaurants. I would definitely stay here again.

Michele H., Roman Forest, TX Unknown
We loved the house! It was clean and exactly as pictured. The house was stocked with everything we needed including items for the beach. We had no issues. It was a very short walk to the beach. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. We would definitely stay again. Of course, the beach was very nice.
Wouldn't stay here again
Recent Guest, Brentwood, TN US
I was disappointed in the overall condition of the property and the apparent lack of attention to keeping a rental property in good working order.
- Front door didn't lock and would open just by pushing on it. I called the management company and they said they would come by to lock it for us and to use the side door. I'm not sure if they came by but the door never locked so we tied it shut during our stay to have some sense of security.
- The gas propane tank for the grill was empty. I believe in replacing it if I empty it but it was empty when we got there.
- The wi-fi was spotty at best. I mentioned it to the management company when I called about the front door and the solution was to reset the modem. I did but the connection was still bad.
- The water heater could only heat a bath for my kids (one bath) and then we had to wait before we could shower.
- The chairs in kitchen and counter have fabric and were grossly stained
- The carpet on the stairs is stained and heavily worn
We booked this trip last minute and it was one of few properties available so we had limited choices. I wouldn't book this property again.
Lovely Home

It was very clean and perfect for our family. Not that far of a walk to the beach. Even had a wagon to carry our stuff. The restaurant was within walking distance and the food was great. Perfect location and private.

The house was amazing!!! We loved everything about it. It was clean and roomy. The gated community was very nice and clean. Felt very safe. The walk to the beach was easy. Loaded up the wagon and off we went. I highly recommend this house. The bike rental was great. The kids used them all week. We will be back!!! Thanks for the great experience.

Great!
Christine C., Fletcher, NC US
Our rental was perfect for our group - 3 small families plus our 2 small dogs. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep in, and move about in the house. It was clean, no funky smell. Furniture a little dated but were in good shape. The kitchen had everything we needed. The washer and dryer a plus. There was also the back of the house where you could grill and hang out. The trees offered some shade. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, only a block from the beach. You could walk to the beach via its private entrance or you can drive there. Saw a public parking area nearby but we never used it. Also just a few minutes from the outlet mall, grocery stores, etc. we had a blast! The property managers were easy to talk to and very prompt. Would definitely stay there again.

Best Vacation in Years
Recent Guest, Alpharetta, Georgia United States
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.

Hegoland house summer vacation
Shannan H., Abita Springs, LA United States
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.

We enjoyed our stay very much. House was very clean when we arrived is in a very quite gated neighborhood. Was close enough to be the private beach access didn't have to use a car to get there which was great. Would recommend it to anyone with a family
of 8 or more, we had plenty enough room for everyone in our party, including our 4 dogs.

Helgoland Review
Recent Guest, Arnold, MO United States
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.

Not a Bad Place to Stay...Just Needs Some Updating
MICHELLE M., LUTCHER, LA United States
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.

Mini Spring Break
Sokpath S., Mcdonough, GA United States
The home was great. Location was perfect. Our family enjoyed it very much. Check out was at 9am and we had to return the wristbands at 10am to the cabana. 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 folks at Crystal Waters made it easy to rent this fun home in the heart of everything! Close to the beach, restaurants and shopping! 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.

The house was much larger than we expected. Fully equipped and very clean. Just a short walk to the beach.
