Thank you for the review. Not sure what we could have done differently. Hope you didn't turn into a prune by staying in the water the whole time.

The property was exactly as described. Three flights up-and no elevator. There is not a pool at this location (I didn’t read the description carefully). Two minute walk to beach, quiet and clean. Well worth the cost. Host was very nice and responded immediately.

Nice little spot

The apartment is really nice and looks just like the pictures! Just a 3 minute walk to the beach with an easy, safe crosswalk to the entrance. It was fully equipped with everything we needed. It is on the smaller side, and it was a little crowded with our family of 5. But overall, we really loved it and would definitely recommend it!

Very clean

Just as shown. Very clean. Queen bed was comfortable. Twins were not. Very close to beach and many restaurants. Not noisy at all. A lot of steps to carry everything, but that is stated. Needless to say, I got my steps in. 😊 I would stay there again.

Check in was super easy. When we pulled into the parking lot we noticed immediately that the outside wasn’t well maintained. We knew when booking it was a 3rd floor property. The steps up were a bit uneven and few were wobbly. The inside had sticky spots across the floor, (we are a shoes off at the door family so it was very noticeable). We found several wrappers under beds, some dried up food under a chair. There was the tiniest dish soap provided and somehow prior to our stay one had been dropped down the disposal so I spent some time pulling that and the lid that had broken into numerous pieces out of the disposal. The back door didn’t lock but the only way to the balcony would be a ladder. The bathroom and bedding were clean. The space was cozy, my family of 4 had room to spread out. It was nice having a washer/dryer and a beach cart. The location was great! Easy to walk to the beach and restaurants.

The condo was great. Really comfy couch, beds, and pillows! I usually hate pillows at hotels. The rooms were clean and the kitchen was workable without needing to bring any utensils, instruments, etc. very affordable.

Thank you for the review. This condo is on the top floor, so I suspect the noise was from outside. Please do report any excessive noise because there is a noise ordinance in Okaloosa County. We would have been happy to take care of it for you.

Cozy place to stay

This was a great place for us to stay! It fit our family of 4 perfectly. The location was close enough to be able to walk to the beach and ice cream. The only thing we would recommend would be to leave more TP- we only had two rolls and ran out during our stay.

Thank you for staying with us. It is standard in this area to provide a starter supply of certain items, of which TP is one. We do not provide an unlimited supply and this is disclosed in our listing and materials.
