We love Emerald for our shorter family trips - you can't beat the location and convenience! The venue itself has not been upgraded in years, so wear and tear on the property is becoming noticeable but service is good, and it works well for those who want to use it as a home base.

Always mosquitos in the bathroom. Always plumbing surprises, but it's generally OK.

The shack renting jetskis etc. is right in front of building 1 and plays music at high volume all day long. Closing the doors does not do much to help with the noise.

We are returning after staying here a few years ago. The rooms have great beach views and are clean and comfortable. The property is located close enough to the airport that we walked to it. We would definitely consider staying here again

Emerald Beach Resort was perfect for us. The room was comfortable, and the beautiful beach was just steps away. Restaurant and Bar on site and it's not too far away from other options. We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to a return trip.

Don’t even worry about the close proximity to the airport; flights are not constant and not at night. The grounds, rooms, pool, bar, restaurant and beach are Wonderful! Tom is the best bartender around. The front desk staff and room staff are very welcoming and efficient. Parking was easy and plentiful. We would definitely stay at the Emerald Beach Resort again.
