The condo was every bit as wonderful as promised and shown in the online photos. Everything we could have needed was supplied, including bath supplies, dishes, serving bowls and cookware. The well-equipped kitchen included a countertop oven that handled roasting, broiling, and air-frying when the full-sized oven wasn’t needed. The standout here is, of course, the proximity to the sugar-sand beach and emerald water of the Gulf of Mexico, both on extensive display from the open-concept main room and the wall of windows in the master bedroom. First-floor access to the beach is an easy walk to the walkway over the dunes. In season, a couple of beach chairs under an umbrella are provided free of charge and set up daily by a service.While the well-appointed condo, beach views, and proximity would be sufficient to make this unit a standout for a vacation, it’s the attentiveness of the hosts of this condo that seals the deal, as other reviewers have noted. From the quick responses I received to questions before our arrival to the comprehensive communications I received when roof maintenance threatened to disrupt our stay, the hosts kept in contact with us, providing updates on the work, even going so far as to send pictures of the progress and completion schedule, as well as contacting condo board members on site for reports. Their attentiveness, concern and efforts regarding the situation and addressing our concerns went above and beyond our expectations.

This condo is amazing. You can tell that the owners took a lot of time and effort into furnishing the condo with everything you could need. From premium bedding, to an extremely well stocked kitchen to even having hand soap in the bathrooms, the owners take pride in their unit. The location couldn’t be better. The view is fabulous, the balcony chairs are comfortable and the walk to the beach cannot be matched. The only thing to note is that the internet was a little iffy the first few days of our stay, which could be a problem if someone needed it for working remotely or anything, but for the casual vacation visitor, it did not impact our stay. We had a minor issue when we arrived and the owner responded IMMEDIATELY and addressed it. This is our second time staying in this specific unit and we would 100% stay again.

Our favorite place to stay!
This is our second time staying at this condo. It’s hands down our very favorite place to stay! Our boys are already asking us to book again. The condo is nice and clean while also providing all the basic things you need while staying there. The beach is literally right in front of you which is our favorite part. We much prefer Okaloosa island over Destin or PCB. We look forward to our next stay!

This was a well taken care of condo that provided everything we needed for our family of 5! The owners were very responsive and kind. You can’t beat the location as it was directly on the ocean and in a quiet part of the area, which was exactly what we wanted! A perfect week at the beach - we will be back!

Exceeded Expectations
The owners represent and maintain this property very well. The owners are responsive and clear on expectations. Being on the ground floor within 20 feet of parking is a very nice feature in addition to the easy beach access. The location is great. It's close to amenities but just far enough away from Destin to not be crazy. The space is well equipped and comfortable for a family. We stayed for a week over Christmas and I was surprised how quiet it was in general. The only negative is noise from the unit directly above if you are unfortunate to get someone with hyperactive kids and a soccer ball staying there. This is not something that the owners can control but they went out of their way to talk to the owners above to let them know to remind their guests of the quiet hours. We would stay here again for sure.

Perfect Location for Families
This was the first trip to the beach for my three year old son and 5 year old daughter. The location is absolutely perfect because you can go in and out from the beach as needed. The condo is nice, but very basic. There was not a lot of extraneous stuff for my kids to destroy. It was exactly what we were looking for. The washer and dryer was critical for us.
Feedback for property managers - the trash bags provided do not fit the kitchen trash can and they are very thin and fragile. You need at least 20 gallon bags. I wished that we had brought our own. There were times when we had to triple bag the trash because the bags kept falling apart.
