Retreat at Emerald Key 403 – Your Vacation Getaway!

"Welcome to Emerald Key 403, your serene gulf-front getaway in the heart of Orange Beach, Alabama.

This beautiful three-bedroom, two-bathroom vacation rental condo comfortably sleeps six guests and is perched on the fourth floor of a low-density complex with only 18 total properties. That means you’ll enjoy a peaceful atmosphere, fewer crowds on the beach and at the pool and minimal elevator wait times. Located directly on the sugar-white sand and overlooking the turquoise gulf, Emerald Key 403 delivers everything you want in a beach escape—views, comfort and convenience.

Step inside to find an open-concept layout that makes vacation living a breeze. The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and all the essentials for whipping up everything from a beach picnic to a seafood feast. Gather around the dining table to share stories or relax in the living room with a good movie. The covered balcony is the perfect place to sip your morning coffee while watching the waves or stargazing after a day of adventure.

The primary bedroom offers a king-size bed, private balcony access and an ensuite bathroom with double sinks. The second bedroom has a queen bed and its own small private balcony, while the third bedroom features two twin beds and access to the hallway bath. A washer and dryer add convenience during longer stays.

Just steps from your door, Emerald Key offers direct beach access, a gulf-front pool with a tranquil waterfall feature and a grilling area for guest use. A gated parking area adds peace of mind, and two parking spaces are included with your stay.

Located in central Orange Beach, Emerald Key 403 places you within walking distance of beach boutiques, restaurants and fun attractions. Spend the day exploring The Wharf, book a fishing charter or enjoy live music and waterfront dining. It’s all just minutes away.

Book your stay at Emerald Key 403 today and start making unforgettable memories on Alabama’s Gulf Coast!

Great Condo & Location

We had a great stay! The condo was spacious enough for our family of five and the location of the building was perfect. This property was quiet, clean, never a line at the elevator and just a few steps to the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Great communication. Someone needs to make it clear that when you arrive to park outside of private parking lot and go to the room to get the clicker box for the gate. Absolutely love the view off the balcony.
