Emerald Island

[scamhammer]

The communal pool at the original Emerald Isle townhouses (inside the security gate) is too small for the number of homes that use it. If this is a problem, renters should definitely insist on not being put in one of these.

Next question! Does anyone know what the model names are for six bedroom villas on this development. Is it just the Magna Bay model?

Also, how many construction companies are involved on the development please? I know about PrkSqHms but wondered if there were other builders involved.

Thanks muchly

Hi Sarah

I am sure that it is only Park Square Homes involved. I also believe that the Magna Bay is the only 6 bedroom built, unless the 5 beds are turned into a 6. (ie family room into 6th bedroom).

Hello Sarah,

They are now only constructing the following home models: -

Grand Lagoon - 4 Bedroom
Cape San Blas - 4 Bedroom
St Vincent Sound - 4 Bedroom - which can be 5 Bedroom (with options)
Magna Bay - 6 Bedroom - which can be a 7 Bedroom (with options)

They did construct more 6 bedroom models in the harbour bay collection in phase 2 and 3 but have decided not to construct these anymore and are concentrating on the above ones for the next and final release phase 5...due next month or two...

Hope this helps for info I knew this from my discussions with Carolyn at Emerald Island, when we close in January

With regard to construction companies, Park Square Homes are the developers and they hire foreman to watch over the construction and progress of the homes, they also pick up the pieces at the end, so is well worth to get the name of your foreman to fix any faults at the end...

Most of the building work, is contracted out to specific companies to deal with AC, Pool, Doors, etc...

For instance in our construction: -

Del-Air, supply, install and warranty the Air Conditioning
All Seasons Pools, supply, install and warranty the Pool and Spa
Florida Electrical, or electric work
Gardening Contractors
Painting Contractors
Cleaning Contractors

The list goes on, we were watching the finishing touches put to a home opposite ours in January and the ammount of work and park square people / companies that visited amazed us, but everthing seemed to go to plan...

I suppose it was half and half...

Hope this helps...
Any more questions, just ask...

Are all the homes in Emerald Island behind the security gates, I am led to believe that we are staying in a security gated area. Also with all the talks of construction, is there alot of this going on..

They build in areas or phases so your villa may be nowhere near the current building work.The best thing to do is contact the owner of the home you are renting and ask them what impact there may be,they should be up to date with the goings on and be able to help you.

Lesley, I think this is Mandy's problem. She rented through Travel City Direct not through a private owner so she is allocated a villa on arrival

I have a Grand Harbour and the last time I looked it had 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms it is the largest model PSH built there living area 3500 sq ft.
The 7 beds (ones with turrets)are they Palm Harbours? have 3000 sq ft.
The Charlotte Harbour are single storey jobs not sure of the bedroom layout of these as there are only a few of this model on site.
