About this property
BEACHFRONT BEAUTY WITH AMAZING GULF VIEWS!
Escape to “Sandy Thongs”, a beautiful, updated, condo with a fresh new look. Our building has been updated with new paint colors and other upgrades making it one of the most desirable locations on Okaloosa Island. Enjoy the beautiful Gulf views, sunrises and sunsets from the huge patio with direct beach access, which comes in handy if you have children.
The cool, sugary white sand, aqua blue water, first floor access, and 1453 sq.ft. of living space, makes this one of the best two-bedroom properties on the beach.
Wake up every morning and watch the beautiful sunrise peeking up over the Okaloosa Pier and end each day with the most amazing sunsets you will ever experience. If you enjoy a more secluded, less crowded beach where you can enjoy the full untamed beauty and sounds of the Gulf, step into our world when you stay at “Sandy Things”.
There are two large bedrooms, with one king, two queen sized beds. In the living room there is an oversized sectional sofa large enough to sleep two, if extra space is needed. There are two full baths with walk-in showers, fully equipped kitchen with granite counters and everything you need to cook or grill the best of meals.
There is a utility room off the kitchen, with full-sized washer and dryer. The unit is located on the ground floor... that's right, no more waiting for elevators or dealing with luggage carts. Pull up to the front door and walk right in.
Experience breathtaking views from the moment you walk inside the front door. When you're ready to enjoy this astounding beach, just step off the patio onto the sand and just a few more steps over the dune's bridge and you're ready to experience this exhilarating island. There is ample seating on the patio so the whole family can enjoy the amazing views.
Evenings are exceptional at “Sandy Thongs” because unlike so many other complexes with roads you have to cross or pools you have to walk through to get to the beach. There is nothing to obscure your access or view of the ocean. Surf Dweller's heated swimming pool, kiddy pool, gym and tennis/pickle ball court are located in the front of the complex, which allows guest to enjoy private, quiet evenings on the patio where the stars are amazing, and the sounds of the gulf will mesmerize you and capture your heart forever.
“Sandy Thongs” is located within minutes of anything you could possibly want to experience during your visit. The Boardwalk, Okaloosa Island Pier, Gulfarium, Pleasure Island Water Park, and Beasley Park are a must see. Also, if you want to spend the day in the bay or at Crab Island between Fort Walton Beach and Destin, boat and jet ski rentals are less than a mile away.
There are many great restaurants within a few minutes of “Sandy Thongs”. The convenience of shopping for groceries, or other items are also just minutes away in Fort Walton Beach.
When you book “Sandy Thongs” free beach service is provided between March 1 - October 31st and includes two beach chairs and one umbrella each day. Also, we provide some beach toys. We provide starter supplies of dish soap, dishwasher soap, trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, laundry pods, body wash, shampoo and conditioner. Beach towels are available for our guests to use as well. There is an assortment of games, adult and children's books for everyone to enjoy.
Need more space to accommodate your larger group? Ask about our second unit, “Sunset Dreams”.
“Sandy Thongs” is a non-smoking unit. Smoking is allowed on the patio. Must be 25 years old to book this listing. No pets of any kind are allowed.
We hope you will visit us soon and often!

Why they chose this property
We welcome you to explore “Sandy Thongs” and compare our amenities to others before booking your vacation. When we purchased this property in April 2018, my sister, husband and I were looking to buy in Destin because we loved the areas beautiful blue water and sugary white sand. We have traveled to many beautiful beaches around the world and while each holds a special place in our hearts and have their own unique beauty, we kept coming back to the Destin area. When we made our decision to purchase a family vacation home in Florida, we knew we wanted to be in Destin around the Miramar Beach area because it was more secluded and less crowded. While looking for properties on the internet, I stumbled upon this Fort Walton Beach property. We had not been to Fort Walton Beach and knew nothing about the area. I was drawn to this property for some reason and when we finally got to see it, we saw the potential as soon as we walked in the door. The view of the beach was amazing and once we stepped out the back door and saw it for the first time, we were breathless! Okaloosa Island had everything we were looking for and more, a secluded location, less crowds and is one of the most beautiful beaches we have ever experienced. We are all excited to share our amazing find with you, your family and friends.
What makes this property unique
We want our guest to enjoy their vacation and not have to go out and buy items like beach toys and beach towels just to have to throw them away when you leave. We provide some beach toys, beach towels, an extra umbrella and beach chairs as well as the two chairs and umbrella the beach service provides between March 1 and October 31 each year. We also have an assortment of games, adult and children's books and many more amenities to make for a memorable experience.
No elevators, stairs or carts needed here! You pull up to the front door and unload. When you are ready to experience the beach, step off the patio and you are there.
Each end of Okaloosa Island is occupied by the Airforce. Air restrictions are enforced, so each building on the island has a seven-story height restriction. Therefore, the beach is rarely crowded like Destin's beaches. You still can enjoy Destin's restaurants, shopping and attractions because we are only seven miles west of Destin.
