Great Condo in a great spot!

We really enjoyed our short stay in this condo. The layout was great for sleeping our five person family, and the ocean views were beautiful. There was lots of living space to spread out in. The furniture and beds were comfy-we would definitely stay here again. We had never stayed on Okaloosa Island before, and I love how small and non-touristy it seemed, while also being so very close to all Destin has to offer.

Cute condo, beautiful beach

We loved this property. We have stayed on Okaloosa island for years and we have found our new home away from home. We already have booked another stay here. The host Linda was very quick to respond to questions. The property was just as presented and very clean. This property has a lot of little extras that made it great. The paintings were a special touch. The kitchen was super well stocked with anything and everything we needed. The giant kitchen table was great for boardgames at night. The patio furniture was super comfortable. The beds were comfortable. The shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, and useable toilet paper (not 1 ply) are all things that are not normally included. The unit was larger than expected and perfect for my family (grandmother, mother, and son). The beach service was great. The attendant was very polite and considerate. All the people we encountered were super nice. It seemed more of a family place than a party place. Plenty of room on the beach to stretch out and play in the sand. We love having the boardwalk so close with plenty of places to eat and fireworks on Wednesday night in the summer. We always go to Wild Willys for goofy golf and arcade time. We also love AJs and the best ice cream shop right there close to AJs. The pool was a plus for my son. Most resorts don't have a pool 7 ft deep and he loved it. It was never crowded in the deep end and plenty of room on shallow for the littles. The grilling area was great to

We had an excellent stay at this condo. The rooms were clean and well furnished. The pool area is nice and easily accessible. The beach is just a short walk across the property. 10/10 stayIf I were to critique anything it would be that we wished the TVs were smart TVs that way we could access our streaming services in the early mornings and evenings.
