We had a wonderful stay at this condo on Okaloosa Island. The beach access was excellent, and the view from the condo was absolutely beautiful. Being able to enjoy the ocean scenery every day made our vacation even more relaxing.The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is that the condo could have been a little cleaner upon arrival. It wasn't a major issue, but a more thorough cleaning would have made the stay even better.Overall, we enjoyed our trip and would definitely consider staying here again because of the fantastic location and amazing beach access.

The kitchen was lacking. Toaster was from 1982 at best and 2 of the four slots worked. Blender same year, didn't work. Coffee pot broke the first morning and the Real Joy people didn't arrive until after 1 pm with a replacement. Kitchen is the number one used room with a family on vacation. Could definitely use an update. They do not need to be top of the line but in the decade would be appropriate.

Spring break middle/high schoolers

The condo was clean and well maintained. Everyone (kids and adults) had an amazing time. The views are spectacular, and its a short walk through the pool to the beach/ocean front! There is a pier/board walk right down the way (within walking distance, but we drove) that also offers fishing, restaurants, and shopping. We would love to stay again in the future.

Nice getaway

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was a great location. Our only issues were the king room was warmer than the other rooms and we were only given 1 trash bag for the kitchen. They had an extra small fan in a closet so we could use it to help. We would definitely visit this condo again. Even our teenagers enjoyed being here.

Pictures can be deceiving

Pictures appear nice bright and clean while in person it is really dark and dingy. It had a smell of bugs as soon as I walked in. The air filter had been changed but the evaporator coil is dirty. The master bedroom gets no air flow it was so hot and uncomfortable. I found 1 dead roach in kitchen there and found another dead one in my beach towel when I got back home.They have tried to spruce it up with newer furniture, new refrigerator, and flooring. Everything else is dirty 1980 originals. The linens were clean.The pool area seemed clean and the beach was very clean and beautiful water. I would not stay at this property again.

Perfect Place

Our stay here was perfect. There was 6 of us staying here with a 1 year old, 5 year old , and 4 adults and the condo was perfect for us. Very spacious and even had a bed that pulled out from the couch that was perfect for the kids to sleep on. The view from the balcony was great and the location was perfect with multiple restaurants less then a mile down the road. Would recommend this place to everyone and would definitely stay again.
