This property was amazing! Views were incredible, the layout was awesome. It is a corner unit with each of the 3 bedrooms having their own balcony each with a different view. The kids loved the pool and the beach was right out the door. There is a cafe for food and another for drinks (best of both worlds). The location is within walking distance of shopping and Shuckems seafood is directly across the street. The kids loved the line dancing and Karaoke and the adults loved the fact that we didn’t have to drive all over the place for everyone to find something to do. Will for sure be visiting this location in the future ! Thank you for a great time!

Overall, we had a great stay at this condo. It could use a little updating for the price, but it was clean, comfortable, and we enjoyed our time here. Through no fault of the owner, one of the buildings elevators is still broken. It was also out of service during our stay last year, which makes getting an elevator take much longer than it should. The parking pass kiosk is also frustrating and could definitely use some improvement. Despite those building-related inconveniences, we had a wonderful vacation and would stay here again.

The property was as listed and quaintly nestled in the absolute best location ever! We frequent FL (PCB, Fort Walton, Destin) at least 3 times a year, and of all cities and housing, this one was by far the best!!!!! We were in the midst of the best shops, eateries, amenities, etc.!

Great Condo

We loved our stay at this location and condo. We would definitely stay here again. We really didn't have anything to complain about. The location was great and the view was absolutely AWESOME. If I could have smoked a cigar on the balcony the stay would have been perfect. I respect and understand that it is a non-smoking facility. One thing that was not clear is that each room has its own balcony and there is actually 3 full bathrooms. It served us really well.

Panoramic coastal views!

Our family of 4 enjoyed staying in this spacious unit with fantastic coastal views and it is larger than shown. Will be happy to come back next time and possibly to see kitchen equipped with kettle and upgraded toaster as well. Would recommend this property to anyone that appreciates dramatic oceanfront location and larger square footage than most of other places. Our host Robyn was very helpful and responded immediately when needed.

The condo was wonderful but the refrigerator door handle was broken and couldn’t be used. The floors were very sandy. Apparently the vacuum does not pick up sand because we vacuumed once we arrived. Otherwise the condo was nice with a great view.
