Great!
The condo was clean and exactly as described. Sarah was easy to contact and responded quickly. Being on the corner of the building gave us great views with lots of sun. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony with our AM coffee or PM wine, watching and hearing the ocean. The beach was beautiful and having the chair/umbrella service was an added bonus. Okaloosa island is a quiet and peaceful area yet close enough to Destin and the rest of the gulf coast area to enjoy the amenities offered. I would highly recommend both the condo and the location and look forward to returning.

White Sand Crystal Clear Water Getaway
This was a top notch property that provided a quite stay and great accommodations while enjoying the ocean front view of the white sand and crystal clear waters of the emerald coast of Okaloosa Island. Property was very clean and provided everything needed. All we had to do was sit back, enjoy and relax. Could not have been any better. Highly recommend this property. We will be returning in the future.

Great Week!
Okaloosa Island has become one of our new favorites! The condo was perfectly situated on the beach with absolutely perfect beach/sunset views! Such easy access even with 1 flight of stairs. Kitchen was great and well stocked. Plenty of linens in both baths and basic items in the kitchen.(love that)The space was really perfect for 2 people! Loved not having a lot of wasted space. The bed was a little squishy and too high for us..literally a little hard to climb onto. (we are 70 with some back issues so a warning there) Fort Walton is adorable.. groceries close by.. some good food.. It was a great week!!

Nice get away!
Wife and I took a 4 day weekend in mid October. Found the condo clean, well equipped, and just as described in listing. Check in, check out and comminication were painless. The view from the balcony was outstanding. The condo is an end unit so both the extra light inside the condo and open side on the balcony give the space a nice feel. Free beach service was a nice feature. There are several good restaurants and fun bars within about 1.5 miles...convenient but unfortunatly just out of walking distance. The only downside was slow internet and cell service. Definitely on the list for a return visit.

Great location. I like that it is a smaller condo. The view & balcony were amazing. Sarah is super informative & easy to work with. I like that I had everything I needed in advance! With some rentals in the past I have experienced a delay getting check in information. This was not the case with Sarah & I appreciate that!!

Quiet Couples Getaway
My husband and I took our 2nd (just the 2 of us) vacation this year at Ft Walton Beach!. We received a message from Sarah saying that check in was at 4 but if we arrived early we could feel free to hang out in the pool or at the beach which I thought was great! We received a text just a little while later saying that the condo was ready so we actually got to check in early! The condo was clean, and tidy. I was very pleased with every aspect. The view was awesome, the beach was super close and convenient to get to. Beach service was Johnny on the spot every morning and those young men setting up the chairs and umbrellas were so polite and respectful! We went out every morning and placed our beach towels on the set that we wanted and on days that we didn’t get right out there to occupy them our spot was never messed with. The atmosphere was peaceful and so serene especially in the mornings! The beach was never over crowded or uncomfortable in any way. Very kid friendly if you have youngin’s that you are trying to provide a nice safe kid friendly vacation for. Be SURE to get up early and enjoy a cup of coffee/tea (or Mt Dew) on the balcony and watch for sea life… we saw Manatee on Sunday and dolphins on a couple of the other days! We even saw dolphins mid day while we were out sunning! Huge thank you to Sarah and Linda for sharing your “Happy Place” with us!!!

Great condo with couple exceptions
Pros: 1. Great location. 2. Cutely decorated. 3. Comfortable bed, couches. 4. A/c and hot water worked great. 5. Very short walk from your door to the beach setup which was included. 6. Owner was responsive with communication. 7. The view from both inside and the balcony are wonderful. 8. It was clean when we arrived. Cons: 1. Clothes dryer wouldn’t dry. Owner had appliance repairman come and they think it has to do with the condo complex’s venting system which the HOA is supposed to fix. The owners daughter who manages it, and seems very nice, brought us extra towels multiple times to accommodate with this. 2. Upon exiting the beach walkway there’s a hose to wash the sand off. However, you then walk around the back of the condo (thru sandy grass) to get to the unit. It’s a corner unit which makes it a really short walk but you’ll get some sand back on your feet/shoes (we used a pitcher of water outside the front door to wash it off). Overall, I’d highly recommend staying here but hopefully the dryer situation gets resolved soon.
