Ft. Walton Beach Beachfront condo - Amazing

I loved that the condo was right on the beach. It's also on the third floor, which is high enough that people on the beach can't see in, but not so high that it's hard to access. It's an amazing place!

Large, open beautiful unit!

We enjoyed our Thanksgiving getaway. We are a family of four and had plenty of space! I would upgrade to larger tvs throughout the unit but I’m a little spoiled on that aspect😂. Kitchen was equipped nicely and had plenty of towels in each bathroom. Nice washer/dryer unit. Just an all around comfortable stay. Very clean and spacious!

Beautiful view & clean

We loved the view of the ocean & the cleanliness of the condo. I appreciated the quiet hours & atmosphere. My only complaints are the master bed was VERY uncomfortable & rock hard. We didn’t sleep well because of this. The pool was closed a half day due to a visitor breaking the safety net. This was very disappointing & affected our experience. I highly recommend the condo owner have replacement nets available. Other than the bed & pool being closed we really loved staying here.

Amazing, Clean, Beautiful View with Huge Balcony

We loved everything about this unit. It is by far now one of my favorites! I’m always hesitant when entering a condo because you never know what you’re walking into. They are always dirt or have an odor but not this unit. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it. Absolutely Amazing and the air will freeze you out! So I would recommend you bring a blanket as the ones provided are quite thin.

Condo Was good. Fridge has a broken shelf and door. Rules for property say no umbrellas in front of beach chairs but this was not enforced which was disappointing.

Perfect view with minimal aminities

The view from 3bc was phenomenal which was the highlight of our stay! The accommodations were very fitting for our large group. The beds were very comfortable and the short walk to the beach made for a pleasant stay. The most disappointing part of our stay was the lack of communication when we needed assistance. Missing from the unit and very needed is a dust pan and a kitchen that is stocked with useful utensils. We had to buy our own forks which we left behind. And we were also disappointed in the clothes drier - 2 hours to wait on clothes to dry kept us from enjoying the beach as much as possible.

Labor Day 2019

Was made aware of construction but NOT that we would not have balcony access until day after we arrived. Resort Quest rental office manager could only say I'm sorry over and over again. She made no attempt to compensate or appease. The unit is spacious, the two king masters are wonderful. The kitchen is up to date and well equipped. If you want to be able to go out on your balcony book for next spring, not in 2019.

Great stay

We had an amazing stay! We loved the location as it was outside of the main traffic and had lots of restaurants and things to do without needing to go far. The unit was clean and perfect. We will definitely stay here again

Perfect

Everything was great. Room was clean, had a great view. Plenty of space, kitchen was fully equipped for cooking. Restrooms were nice. The room was easy access from the beach. Parking was no hassle at all. No complaints. Family enjoyed. This was our second stay at this unit. Won’t be the last.

3BC for Fall Break

We stayed for 5 nights and it was very spacious, extremely clean and had great views of the ocean! The secondary King guest bedroom fan didn’t have a chain to adjust the speed so it remained on high so would suggest having the owner fix that. Also providing some coffee filters would have been helpful as the one that came with it caused grounds to pass through. Other than that, it was a great stay and we’ll be booking through Vacasa again next year. Thanks! GA Family

Great views

This place worked great for our family vacation. Lots of beds, great balcony, loved having boogie boards and community use of floats and sand toys. We had a couple of issues with things while there and maintenance was sent within the hour to resolve the issues. I will definitely consider staying here again!

Beach week wedding

LOVED this condo! Our family had an excellent relaxing week prior to our son’s beach wedding at a nearby venue. Everything is as stated. The only con I can think of is charcoal grills are kind of a hassle, gas grills would be easier. Would definitely stay again. So conveniently located.

Great family getaway

My boyfriend our 5 kids (ages 12-18) stayed for a week. Our balcony felt like it was right on the beach so we could watch the kids from the condo or take a short walk to join them. It was a short drive to the grocery store, a 20 min drive to Destin, or a nice long family walk to the pier for fireworks. Main bedroom set part from kids for privacy
