Retro Town: Arcade, Pets, and Grill Near Beach
Summary:
Retro Town is a rare find in the heart of Fort Walton Beach that'll take you back! Enjoy four smart TVs, three arcade games to include street fighter, NBA Jam, Pac-Man, Street Fighter and more. There’s also a fully furnished kitchen, board games, a cozy living room, propane grill, with a nice outdoor setting with decorative lights for when you return home from the beach. This STR is riddled with old school accents and creative colors that'll make your stay a memorable one. We hope to host you soon!
The Space:
Retro Town is a cozy 1,320 square foot townhome with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and 1 half bath. All 3 bedrooms and the full bathroom are located upstairs and the half bathroom downstairs. Retro Town has been completed renovated with new vinyl flooring is located throughout the house, new bathrooms, new doors, new windows, new paint, and brand new kitchen! The kitchen is equipped with all new GE Appliances and everything you would need to cook up a fantastic meal. The backyard is fully fenced for your furry friends and privacy. I put a lot of love into this house and I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!
Guest Access:
Ronin Stays uses SuiteOp for guest access. Before arrival, guests will receive a link through their booking channel and/or email to complete a quick pre-check-in. Through that same link, you’ll find everything you need for your stay — including check-in instructions, Wi-Fi details, local recommendations, and more. Once check-in begins, the SuiteOp app provides instant access to the property within seconds. In the rare event of any issues, a backup lockbox with a physical key is available on-site.
The Neighborhood:
The immediate area is very safe with a strong military community from both the Army and Air Force (active and retired). My neighbors and I share a mutual respect for one another. There's plenty of lighting near the front door with Ring cameras in the front and backyard entrance and exit for your added security and reassurance.
Getting Around:
Getting around Fort Walton Beach is relatively easy, though public transportation options are somewhat limited. For the most convenience and flexibility, driving is the best way to explore the area. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are readily available and offer a reliable way to reach nearby destinations such as Downtown Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa Island, and the surrounding attractions. Biking is also an option for shorter trips, and many roads in the area are bike-friendly. If you're planning to explore beyond the city or travel on your own schedule, a personal vehicle or rental car is highly recommended.
Other Things to Note:
All booking guests must submit a photo of their ID for verification, complete and sign the Ronin Stays Rental Agreement, fill out the check-in form, and choose either the damage waiver protection plan ($45) or a security deposit ($250) before receiving check-in instructions. Once these steps are completed, your personal check-in code will be sent one hour before your scheduled check-in time. To avoid any delays, please ensure these requirements are taken care of in advance.
We’re happy to welcome your furry companions—all breeds, shapes, and sizes are accepted, with a maximum of 2 pets per reservation. This fee covers your entire stay and includes basic pet cleaning. All pets must be house trained, non-aggressive, and up to date on vaccinations. Please note that the pet fee covers standard cleaning; any excessive cleaning—such as indoor accidents, excessive pet hair on furniture, or damage—will result in additional charges. Our standard one-time pet fee is:
- $85 for up to 2 pets
The 1-lane driveway can accommodate two average-sized sedans. One additional car can be parked to the immediate left of the driveway in the dirt, if needed. No parking on the road please.
A propane grill is available for guest use, along with a standard propane tank. Please note that propane may be left over from previous guests but is not guaranteed or provided as part of your stay. If the tank runs empty, you can easily exchange it at nearby locations such as Walmart, Home Depot, or local gas stations for approximately $25.
For your safety, this property has 2 exterior security cameras located at:
- Above the Front Door
- On the Patio in the Backyard
There are no cameras inside the house. These cameras are installed solely to help protect our guests and the property.
To ensure the property remains in top condition, routine maintenance is performed on a scheduled basis. Lawn care occurs bi-weekly, and pest control treatments are completed quarterly. Our trusted vendors will not need access inside the property, but you may see them working in and around the exterior of the home during reasonable daytime hours. If interior access is ever required, guests will always be notified in advance.
Please note: The nightly rate includes up to 5 guests. For groups larger than 5 (up to a maximum of 7 guests), there is an additional charge of $25 per guest, per night. This helps cover the extra utilities, cleaning, and general wear and tear. Thank you for your understanding and for helping us keep Retro Town in great shape for everyone!

Really fun place to stay
The house was really cute and decorated with a fun retro theme. We had all the amenities of home on vacation. The place was clean and neighborhood was quite. We really enjoyed our stay and loved having our dog with us. Also having all the fans was a nice touch. It was air-conditioned but we love sleeping with fans on. Honestly we have no complaints about anything. It was a nice trip!
