GETTING IN
Emerald Island is gated. Your names are entered at the gate, and the resort emails you a link to register your vehicles; the resort charges $20 plus tax per vehicle. You let yourselves into the home with a private door code, which we send you before you arrive.
GOOD TO KNOW
Pool and spa heating is optional: $35 a night, with a 4-night minimum. The spa is a raised part of the pool, not a separate hot tub. The home does not come with a grill, but you can rent a gas grill for your stay. You arrive to a starter supply of coffee, soap, shampoo and conditioner, dishwasher tabs, laundry pods, trash bags, and bathroom tissue. Smoking is allowed outside only. For stays longer than 90 nights, please send us an inquiry.
