You will love discovering the exclusive Emerald Waters Village, a gated neighborhood located conveniently where Scenic Gulf Drive and Holiday Rd intersect in Miramar Beach. The village has an architectural mix of homes that include the Mediterranean, columned neoclassical, and the "Old Florida" style with wide verandas. Guests will enjoy the convenient private beach access just a short stroll away, along with two tropically landscaped, community pools at each end of the community. Situated between Pompano Joe's beachfront restaurant and the Whale's Tale, but also close to Destin Commons and Grand Boulevard, the neighborhood has easy access to activities, restaurants, and the sugar white sands you are here for.

Area Attractions:

Just 3 miles away is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate-themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters, and Bass Pro Shop.

Grand Boulevard Town Center is a pedestrian-friendly, shopping and dining complex just off Emerald Coast Parkway, convenient to both SanDestin and Miramar Beach. For the high-end shopper, the center offers everything from Fusion Art Glass Gallery to Brooks Brothers Country Club. Several boutiques, such as Hello, Sunshine, and Magnolia House, carry fare you can't find anywhere else. Dining options include Mitchell's Fish Market, P. F. Chang's China Bistro, and Cantina Laredo Gourmet Mexican Food. In 2013, Walton County’s first movie theater opened at Grand Boulevard’s Town Center – the state-of-the-art Boulevard 10 Movie Theater.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach Access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

This was perfect for a large family gathering. The bunk room and play room were a hit with all my grandkids. Since we had multiple families gathering, the gourmet kitchen and dining area made feeding a large group easy. We chose to heat the pool and it was well worth the added expense. There were lots of beach toys and even a wagon to help carry them to the beach. The private beach entrance is just a short walk and was ideal for the baptisms we held. Everyone agreed, we'll be back!

Best Salty Stay in Destin
We had an unforgettable family vacation at Salty Shores. This home was exactly as stated and more. It was clean and beautiful. Comfortable sectional couch plenty of space. A great little play area for little ones. The bunk room actually has 2 full bunk beds with trundles under each one. A pack and play, potty seat and booster seat for the dining room. The pool was so fun with the fountains and beautiful landscaping. There is a sweet little coffee shop we rode bikes to called Badass Coffee. Best strawberry smoothie I’ve ever had. It was a short walk to the private beach but we like to use a canopy which was prohibited so we walked a little further to the public beach which wasn’t a problem just keep that in mind before lugging all your beach day fun items to the private beach. This place was a gem and I didn’t want to leave!!

This home is absolutely beautiful and so spacious, comfortably slept our party of 17. We had a great time, the pool was perfect being that it was cooler so we couldn’t enjoy the beach too much. There isn’t a gate around the pool, so if you have littles I would recommend a baby gate for the door. The beach is only a 12 min walk or bike ride from the house and I love that they had bikes abailable for those of us who wanted to ride. Jolene and her team were responsive and proactive, which made the trip so much easier to manage. The beds were soooo comfy. Def would recommend booking this location and will book again when we come back to Destin!

Great location and amenities
The house is laid out well and accommodated our crew perfectly. The pool was amazing, the under stairway retreat was a perfect hideaway for kids and the house was in a great location with nice and new amenities. It was just a short walk to the beach or a quick drive to any Destin Destination. Having the bathrooms in each bedroom offered privacy. The kitchen had all the tools needed for keeping folks fed on the go or a place to sit and hang out. The island in the kitchen was a little big for the space, so it limited having too many cooks in the kitchen. Overall a wonderful place to relax or minutes away from any fun in the sun activity!

The house was very spacious and perfect for three couples and our kids to share for a week. The bedrooms were all large enough to be comfortable even with king beds in four of the bedrooms. The kids loved sharing the two double bunk beds in the 5th bedroom. The house was so clean when we arrived. The in-ground pool was nice on the days we did not go to the beach due to the extreme heat. The steps going down to the beach were safe but there were several so it was a bit rough for one of our group who had a medical issue. The gate codes were numerous so we put them in our phones. Usually the gate codes worked but a few times they would not work. Our group was not the only group having the issue. Neighbors were always helping one another when codes did not work so we felt it was a community wide issue. The downstairs had a brief a/c issue. The staff took our call immediately and had maintenance there to assess the issue within an hour and had the issue fixed by the afternoon.

Paradise! This house is amazing. Modern, clean, with everything you need for an amazing beach getaway. Perfect for families (kid-friendly). Plenty of comfortable accommodations (the Tempurpedic mattress was amazing after a long day in the sun). The pool is and outside patio is spacious and private. The walk to the beach is about 5 minutes. Beach access is easy, but beware that there is no ramp (about 20 stairs to climb down). Also, tents and canopies are not allowed on this portion of the beach (umbrellas are fine). Location is central to everything you need. Really enjoyed the privacy of the neighborhood. Our first night, the upstairs air conditioner was broken (87 degrees). I called and the host had a repair technician at the house within an hour! The problem was fixed on the spot. Great customer service! Would recommend, and will be back!

This is a great home for a large family or two families.
Plenty of space, safe, comfortable beds and sofa, great pool/yard space, easy access to many stores, restaurants, entertainment.
Walk to the beach is close enough but if you have smaller children it may be challenging to carry them (with all their beach toys) and go through 2 gates.
Code for accessing the beach gate only worked once. The lock itself is either ready for maintenance or a change.
We had some trouble with the pool heater working consistently but Jilenna was very diligent in getting us into a warm pool.
We had a great time and can’t wait to go back!

Thank you for taking the time to write a review, Emmanuel! I really appreciate the feedback. I will notify the HOA about the beach code. I apologize for the inconvenience of the pool heat malfunction but I'm so so so glad you were able to enjoy it! Can't wait to have you again 🤩

Our stay was amazing! One of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had. We had absolutely no issues with the home or the host. Jilenna was such a great host and responded very quickly to all of my messages. The home was very roomy, clean, and well-kept. The best part of the home was the pool- hands down! We had a great experience, and would recommend to anybody!

Perfect location!
This home was such a great location to the beach and restaurants. The neighborhood was quiet and quaint. The home was the perfect size for our family offering enough beds and rooms. The only thing that could have been different was more attention to dusting of lights and furniture as well as a few added kitchen utensils to make it even easier for out of state guests to feel like everything they need is right in the home. Would recommend this home to others!

Our family spent a week at Salt Life and loved it! The house and pool are as beautiful as the pictures! Although we’re all “beach” people, we spent most of the time floating in the pool relaxing. (Might have had something to do with the nearly half mile walk to the beach.). If given the opportunity, would go back in a heartbeat!

We loved this house and the location. Beach was an easy walk with a gate access and the neighborhood was great. House was great for a big family and has everything you could possibly need. I also loved the parking and garage for this house it was much bigger than most other properties we have stayed at in Florida.

Great space and location
The pool is what really sets this place apart. With the hurricane that just came through, the beach wasn’t allowing people to get in the water. So having our own pool and not having to share with other guests like a condo was really nice. Rooms are spacious, updated decor, great kitchen, Loved having bikes to ride to the beach which is very close, and it’s close to just about everything else. We will definitely book this house again!!

Bright side of 2020
This house was a perfect fit for our families. The location was close enough to walk, bike, or take a golf cart ride to the beach. The house looked like it was recently renovated and was pristine upon arrival. The pool was great for sun bathing or swimming for the kids and the sleeping arrangements were great except the bunk room has to share a bathroom with another room. Overall, with COVID going around, this house was truly a home away from home and a great, clean, well kept and well maintained place to spend our 2020 family vacation.

We were very impressed with the quality and condition of the property. The house is well designed in terms of layout, the kitchen was well equipped and the property seemed brand new. The pictures on the website are very accurate. The golf cart came in very handy in travel to/from the beach. We had a minor maintenance issue and they were extremely responsive to remedying the issue. We had a great overall experience.

Beautiful Home and Location!
We just returned from our stay at Salt Life. It is a beautiful home - staged perfectly. The pool is really the thing that sold us on this house. Most homes in this area did not have pools because the beach is so close but it really helped after a day at the beach, to come back and jump in the pool! Pros: everything in the home is new, nice large bedrooms, plenty of space for kids and adults! SUPER short walk to the public beach. Cons: no beach towels (bring your own), there's a lot of construction going on but it was not a big deal, took a bit to get the bikes. Golf Cart only seats 4 people, not 6 as shown in pic. No where to park the golf cart at the beach. Kids room needed some better lighting, so we moved the lamps around. Also the entrance to the beach was busy and you better remember the code or you can't get in or out!! couldn't work the fireplace. Maybe plan to offer some games/cards etc All in all, loved our stay - thank you!!
