The condo could've been a lot cleaner for the money spent. The furniture is dirty, the floors needed to be swept/ mopped better. The beds were super clean! And lastly after a 4pm check in they ask you to check out before 10 am check out time. Nautilus is good to work with, however, Realjoy..not so much.

The property is very clean and the perfect location. The unit itself needs major updates, saggy mattresses, worn furniture, bathroom fan doesn't work, it just all needs attention.

Perfect stay! Highly recommend

We loved our stay! I had a few non negotiables in renting a condo…clean, beautiful view, easy check in and out. This condo gets an A plus on all of those. It was a bit outdated but that didn’t matter to us. The beds were super comfy! Very clean, amazing view, easy check in and out. I messaged the team about a door and the response was almost instant. Would definitely stay again.

Very convenient place to stay. Great vacation spot

I have stayed at the Nautilus twice. I will stay again. We were able to check into the condo a couple of hours early which really helped us out after traveling with a 1 year old. The condo is clean. Located right on the beach. The pool is nice. Check-in process was very easy. The ocean view is beautiful. We did not have any issues at all during our stay.

Awesome Stay

The condo had the most beautiful views of the beach. It was big enough for our family of 4, close enough to Destin to easily be able to go do things there, but far enough away we didn’t have all the traffic. We will be back for future vacations! The washer and dryer are noisy, but we made it work!
