There are two pools in this subdivision one is only a 1/2 block away and the other is about a block walk towards the beach. As if the home isn't good enough Emerald Shores also has its own PRIVATE beach access as well as beach restrooms and pavilion!! Tram service runs during peak seasons in case the sun and sand have worn you down! Capt Dave’s on the Gulf & Kenny D’s are restaurant/bars within walking distance to The Stowaway Cottage. Crab Trap is a little farther down, but would be a fairly easy walk for the family to make to enjoy some other dinner fare! This home has internet and is conveniently located in the Miramar Beach area of Destin about 1.5 miles East of the Destin Commons and Bass Pro Shop. Enjoy everything Destin has to offer from this easily accessible subdivision which has a Scenic and Hwy entrance!

What to do besides enjoy our wonderful beach...

Should you wish to explore what the local area has to offer, you'll find an abundance of choices. Sidewalks line scenic 98 for walking, running or bike riding. We are a short 2 mile drive to the Silver Sands mall to the West, or luxury shopping at Destin Commons to the East.

When you need to pause for nourishment choose from Panera Bread, Cheeseburger in Paradise or Carrabba's Italian Grill.

More great shopping can be found at the Destin Commons outdoor mall. Enjoy such great stores as Abercrombie & Fitch, Ann Taylor Loft, Banana Republic, Belk, Books-A-Million & Maui Nix Surf Shop to rattle off a few.
