Great beach stay

The condo was clean and had an amazing view of the ocean. It was so convenient and we even were given to beach chairs and an umbrella that we’re already set up for us complementary.

Great condo

Loved the cleanliness and how we could make both bedrooms have their own private bathroom. We had room to park two loaded beach wagons right inside the door, good selection of kitchen tools. Soap, shampoo, conditioner crock pot, great vacuum to help keep it tidy while there provided. Great patio furniture, air unit works well, easy access to elevator. Highly recommend

Very Nice Condo with great location - needs a bit of updating

The location is great, and the beach access is very convenient. The beach is also not very full at all, much more room than the Destin beaches. The Condo was very clean, but did have a bit of an odd smell. There are some updates and repairs needed, but nothing that was a major issue.

Place is rock solid, the only thing I can think of that needs a little attention is the bed in the Master Bedroom gettin close to needing an update otherwise you can be confident renting the unit

It was lovely

This was the perfect place in the perfect location for our family. Everything was clean and we had everything needed for a cozy weekend at the beach. We had one issue with one of the toilets not flushing and they sent someone right away to fix it. Our last night we watched the Labor Day fireworks on the pier from the balcony, and the last morning we spent out there watching the dolphins. This is the perfect spot for a familu get away.

Beautiful view and close to everything

I loved that I was able to have my son who’s in the military based at Eglin and his wife and my little infant granddaughter over all week long and we were completely comfortable. My other two children were there as well and we had the best time. We were close to so many good restaurants and entertainment but also had everything we needed besides the groceries to cook meals in. The view could not have been more perfect. A short walk to the beach was also nice, we all were able to come and go since some of us love soaking up the sun more than others. It was perfect.

Jealous of Mr Owl

Our stay was great!! The condo was very clean and neat. Plenty of kitchen towels and bathing towels. So jealous of Mr Owl on the patio. He has the best view of the beautiful beach and ocean. Great furniture on the patio to relax and take in the relaxing sound of the ocean waves. Beds were ok. The only thing I could see that could be improved are necessities in the kitchen. Thing to cook with and spoons would be nice. Overall, it was wonderful and we would come again.

Good condo but showing it’s age

Bed is beginning to sag but is still comfortable. Blemish on baseboard when you first come in. Rust on dishwasher and fridge and fridge doesn’t cool as well as the newer ones. Microwave is an eyesore; it’s cracked. Ceiling in the hallway is patched up as it seems there was a leak there. Balcony furniture has mildew on it and is uncomfortable. Aside from that, the place was clean and relatively comfortable. I believe it was priced right. Would I stay there again? Probably not. Do I regret our stay? No.

Great

We loved the unit. Was very clean and had everything we needed. The only issue is parking in the garage. We were not able to use our assigned parking as it was so small my Buick Enclave was unable to fit. So, we used one of the non assigned parking spots available.

Great beach vacation

Loved Okalosa Island because traffic was not bad and Destin was close by with a lot of amenities. Lots of time in the water and fun parasailing too. Shopping and great food too. best was the beautiful emerald water.

Beautiful Getaway Right on the Beach

This unit is on the 5th floor facing the water. It is in such close proximity and literally took just a couple of minutes to get from the condo to the beach. The location is excellent and convenient to stores, recreation, and numerous restaurants. If a place to get away from stress is your goal, this is the place to be! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely book this property again!

Enjoyed our stay

This unit worked very well for our visit. The kitchen was really nice. This has nothing to do with this unit, the the passcode to open the gate to the beach at the facility was inconsistent and frustrating. All the guests talked about their dissatisfaction with the gate and code.
