The Island Resort at Fort Walton Beach
Pool was amazing

The Pensacola Beach Resort
We had a gulf view room, which was exactly what we wanted and could see dolphins from our balcony. The staff was friendly. The pool is really nice, but too many kids for my taste. We like to walk and never took the car for dinner. I would definitely recommend and hope to return soon.

The heated pool and hot tub were amazing! The staff that cleaned the rooms made sure we had fresh towels and bed made daily!

Great place to stay with nice view all around.

Waterscape Condominiums
The pictures of the property online had much better views than the actual room. We had a view of the parking lot of the adjacent hotel while the property we saw online had pool and beach views. Just a little misleading. Otherwise, the room was still very nice.
