Cozy studio on the Santa Rosa Sound with a deck & a swimming pool

Pirates Bay A409

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

It's easy to dream of the lush fishing grounds and serene beaches of Florida's Emerald Coast when you're stuck in the snow and cold of winter. However, this bright Fort Walton Beach home sits right on the Santa Rosa Sound and isn't just for snowbirds; the relaxing atmosphere, spectacular view, and tons of recreational activities (including access to an outdoor pool) is perfect for all travelers seeking a respite from the daily grind.

Located on the northeast side of the Santa Rosa Sound and only 10 miles west of the Choctawhatchee Bay, this renovated Fort Walton home is a cornucopia of good-times potential. History buffs will love learning about the early settlements of this area as well as the military presence that is still one of Fort Walton's primary 'industries' (the first being tourism).

Upon entering one of these Fort Walton Beach vacation rentals, you'll instantly feel the stress of the outside world melt away. The serene white interior and nautical decor will put you in the mood for outdoor adventure; you won't be able to control your excitement for exploration of Fort Walton.

There are two side tables with gorgeous green plants to improve your quality of sleep and mood. A couch, coffee table, and cable TV also allow the bedroom to double as a living room area, perfect for unwinding after a day of fishing or skiing.

Step through the sliding glass door out onto the adjoined deck and relax by the outdoor coffee table in one of two chairs that face the unbeatable view of the Sound. If you develop a craving for water sports but don't have the energy to make it to the sound or bay, you only need to travel down to the shared outdoor pool for a quick dip. Other amenities include free WiFi and access to a shared washer/dryer.

Bike the gorgeous trails, fish the abundant waters, rent paddleboats and kayaks to explore the sound and bay, or parasail over the gorgeous geography for a breathtaking view. In the winter, enjoy skiing, tubing and more! Visitors who desire a day trip or two can jump in the car and travel to several nearby attractions, including Henderson Beach State Park, Santa Rosa Island, Miramar Beach, and Panama City Beach. If you're lucky enough to travel here during the month of June, be sure to check out the annual Billy Bowlegs Pirate Festival, a unique and high-spirited celebration for the whole family!

No matter the season or what part of the world you live in, consider one of our snug and auroral Florida's Emerald Coast vacation rentals for your next trip!

Experience the splendor that is Fort Walton Beach, and book this fun studio today!

Nice!

Enjoyed my stay! Very peaceful location, overlooking the bay. Not a far drive to the beach. Everything was clean and overall satisfying. I would have given 5 stars, however there was a terrible odor in the room, and the bedding was uncomfortable. So I recommend bringing your own pillows and extra blankets. Other than that, I can’t complain. We will be back again.

We left early we couldn't stand another night here

This was probably a really nice, cozy apartment at one point. If you don't look too closely, it looks great. Then you see the pillows have been flattened almost out of existence by so much use. (Our first thing when we did when we arrived was go to Target and buy new pillows). When you try to turn on the lamp, you realize half the wall outlets don't work, and one outlet didn't even have a cover, just leaving a giant hole in the wall (right next to the bed, and there was a spider on my pillow when I arrived). When you shower, you notice the nasty shower curtain stained from years of use and the rust all over the shower curtain rod. If you can sleep at all on the grossly uncomfortable mattress, you wake up stiff as a board. We cut our week vacation in half because our backs couldn't handle another night on that bed (and we're in our 20's). And on top of all that, the wifi provided didn't even work. We called the tech help line, and the guy told us he didn't have access to their wifi, and he gave us the password to a different connection, but that signal only reached half of the apartment. TL;DR - don't be fooled by the cute pictures, stay somewhere else.

It worked for us. The view was amazing

We could not give it a 5 star rating for couple of minor details. First, the flow was not very clean at all walking barefoot the first night and our feet were black. The mop available was subpar and not even worth trying to use it to clean, so we wore socks and washed our feet a lot! Also, there was rust on the underside of the shower curtain and tp holder and the shower curtian was very rusty looking from the water I presume! Also, instructions on how to obtain more linens and where to Finally, some hooks on/in the bathroom or on the balcony would be helpful to hang towels and suits.

Nice area, close to Destin

Overall, was nice. Electrical outlet was exposed by the bed. Refrigerator better size than in hotels. Quiet, nice view of the sound. In my opinion, should have checking out instructions to fit the condo not generic. Wish ice maker on grounds. Was good experience for first time in renting.

Cozy, clean, great little condo!

Great little place to stay for a quick getaway. Only thing that concerned us was the size of the condo. It is perfect for a couple or even a small family with one little one. There were four of us and we have a 6 and 12 yr. old so it was a little cramped for us. Overall, everything was clean and we had all accommodations that we needed. Our kids loved the pool and there was cable (HBO and Disney channel) for when we had our down time. We made it work and we enjoyed our time there.

It was a cute little room!

I brought my girlfriend here for a beach weekend getaway and this is just what we needed. If you're looking for a cute little room by the bay this is all you need. It's about a ten minute drive from the beach, but if you're like us then you'd rather be away from all of the traffic.

Nice complex, nice unit, fees charged by VRBO and Vacasa are extra

This is a good location, nice complex, a little hard to find because a restaurant separates the 2 "sections" of the complex. I booked my stay via VRBO. Vacasa uses the VRBO platform & you'll see the extra charges when you "check out". My stay was quick and my booking was done on short notice, but I'll pay extra attention next time!

Nice convenient and cozy

We stayed for a weekend and this condo was very nice, efficient and clean. Balcony overlooked the back waters was peaceful. Location had all you needed for a stay. Onsite laundry, hotel carts for luggage. Condo itself was cozy and efficient. The only recommendation would be bring extra padding for sofa couch...it's a thin mattress and the bed mattress although comfortable could use replacing. If you plan to actually cook...its a small kitchen and closet space is limited. Had to call property managers concerning an extended checkout and they were SO easy to work with! Would definitely recommend ...
