Everything was wonderful
Lovely property that was spotlessly clean. Appreciated the extra little things, including the snacks that were in the house. It was also nice that we had an enclosed garage. We had a lovely time over Thanksgiving in this property that is close to grocery stores, etc.

True Southern Hospitality
From arrival through departure our stay exceeded any and and all expectations we had of a vacation rental. The unit was immaculate and furnished with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The attention to detail by our hosts was truly on display and the hospitality provided made us feel like family members not guests. We will definitely be returning to Sweet Magnolia.

Best Vacation Ever
The hosts were awesome. They provided us with fishing and dining out tips. The property was top-notch and so close to restaurants, shopping and water access. Their private dock provided us with a space for our boat and hours of fishing!!!! Highly recommend this property!

Quiet but interupted
My Fiance just came back from training for 3 weeks currently we are looking to move else where in the neighborhood, to try out different locations we stay in different cities. We have tried Navarre, Crestview, Niceville and now Fort Walton. The place is beautiful we like the location however the only thing is that all weekend it was rainy so we stayed inside and on Sunday while have a bit of a lazy day the owners proceeded to come inside the unit. They did ring the door bell but again we were in bed and taking naps. Only thing I didn't enjoy was being walked in on. Definitely didn't feel comfortable knowing that the owners come in as they pleased, even if it was to ask about a package. (Which wasn't mine BTW)
