Not Our First Visit

We have stayed in this location a couple of times. The beach access is a plus and having a couple of pools available is great alternative. The house at 10 Onix is well appointed and very comfortable.

Family Vacation

Darlene was amazing! She was very responsive and answer all questions and gave information prior to arrival. The house was great, had everything we needed for our stay. It was located close to both pools and a quick walk to the beach, the tram was a great bonus as well! I would definitely be staying again when we go back!

The house was great and met all of our needs as a family. Kitchen was clean and had what we needed to make great food from the local fish markets. Rooms were clean and spacious, with good beds and ease of private baths for all. The walk to the beach is through the very cool neighborhood of Emerald Shores and then the Leeward Condos, but worth it. The beach is amazing and great chair service from Spencer. If you need a break from the beach the pools also were a hit for our family.

Perfect Family-Friendly Property

We love Emerald Shores and have stayed in three other houses in this community. Serendipity is by far our favorite property! The layout is spacious and the three full bathrooms were wonderful for four adults and four children.

CLEAN, updated, accommodating, beautiful, peaceful. Everything you could want in a stay. My family has been visiting these beautiful beaches for nearly 10 years and have always stayed at emerald shores. This year was our first with Serendipity & it’s the first home we’ve ever been able to check in early without any hassle. She contacted us before and during our stay making sure we were so greatly taken care of. They don’t miss out on the details and offering you many things to do. Seriously if you’re questioning if you should book it. DO IT!
