Just O.M.G. Perfection
This property was THE BEST property we have ever stayed at. The condo was GORGEOUS, SUPER CLEAN (fantastic cleaning crew), spacious, beautifully decorated, and yep - RIGHT ON THE BEACH. It was so amazing to wake up every morning and see the Gulf right outside. Walking to the beach took less than two mins after you get off the elevator. There were four adults and one teenager in our party and we all had plenty of room to spread out and yet still be together when needed. The large dining room table served a dual purpose of family meals and board game time for when we needed a brief reprieve from the heat. The host was very communicative, gave clear directions on everything, and was absolutely amazing. Book this condo now - you won’t regret it!!!

Highly Recommend - You Will LOVE It!!
We loved our stay at this wonderful condo. It's our first time but won't be our last! 3 Bed + 2 Baths. It's completely renovated - kitchen, baths & flooring and well maintained. Lots of room for our family of 5. Comfortable furniture and beds. Large kitchen table and there's a large breakfast bar w/barstools. It was equipped with everything we needed and lots of extras! Beautiful ocean views and in a convenient location. Owner was available for questions and quick to respond. Stewby's Restaurant is right across the street, you must try it! We have been staying in Ft Walton for many years, we love the area.
