***There is on-going construction at The Palms as they replace the roof of the building. Work is expected to continue through 2025 and possibly into 2026. While work is limited to noise ordinance/daytime hours, guests may experience occasional noise and see scaffolding around the building. The beach access is still open but use with caution. The pool may not be open during this time. We’ve adjusted our rates accordingly and appreciate your understanding as the area continues to improve.***
*We LOVE Snowbirds! Low Monthly Winter Rates*
Snowbird Season runs November thru February. For a quote, select an arrival date (must be the 1st day of the month) and a departure date (must be the 1st day of a subsequent month). Contact us for alternate date requests and further assistance! All monthly rentals are subject to an additional $150 cleaning fee.
The Palms Condominiums is located beachfront on Okaloosa Island. This low rise, 6-story complex has only 23 units and offers a swimming pool, sun deck, and BBQ grilling area! With a private boardwalk and walkway, guests have easy access the sugar-white sandy beaches and emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico…paradise is just footsteps away from your room.
The Bed Setup:
Master Bedroom: King Bed
Guest Bedroom: Queen Bed + Twin Bunk (sleeps 4)
Area Attractions:
The Palms is located near an array of dining possibilities at The Boardwalk nearby and loads of options in Fort Walton Beach or in the busy harbor area of Destin, which is just a short 10-minute ride. Visit the Gulfarium, a marine adventure park, with dolphin and sea lion shows or head into Destin to visit Big Kahuna's Water Park. Fish off the pier at Okaloosa or try your hand at the array of watersports in the area. There's something for everyone, so pull out your calendar and start planning your trip!
The Boardwalk is your one-stop destination for fun, day and night! Relax on the beaches of The Gulf of Mexico while sipping a frozen concoction prepared at our outdoor bar upstairs at The Crab Trap, stroll the boardwalk and visit Islanders Coastal Outfitters for new beach attire or grab a frozen snack from Pino Gelato. When day turns to night, Al’s Beach Club is our premier club and burger bar. Hungry? We've got that covered as well! Grab some fresh from the Gulf seafood from any of the great beachfront restaurants located directly on The Boardwalk!
