We have stayed at various Aqua Villa units over the last 8 years and this unit is the best!
Very clean well stocked unit with a nice balcony to watch the sunset or just relax.
Excellent communication with the owner and we will most definitely be back to this unit again!
Super convenient to everything. Right on the beach—convenient parking. Balcony was great!

Over all was enjoyable
Not sure what the other condos look like but this one needs a little help. We were told that the property was pet friendly but yes you can have your pet stay in the condo with you however they have signs posted all over the property stating do NOT allow pets on grass. So in order for you to let your animal “relieve themself” you have to walk them elsewhere. We were also told the couch was a pull out couch for additional sleeping arrangements however that was not the case either. There were cracks in the ceiling, ac grills have black “dust/dirt/mold possibly” on them, ac filter was dirty and luckily I found spares in with the unit to change it because the thermostat was set to 72 and it was 76 when we got there, you can’t have the living room fan on without the lights above the “countertop” on so we had to unscrew the bulbs when we wanted the fan on, the king size bed was the worst most uncomfortable my wife and I went and purchased a topper that we brought home with us at the end of our trip, hallway light looks like it was about to fall off. Elevator broke 2 days after we got there so the duration of our trip we were forced to use the stairs. For what was spent family was not impressed with the room. Now the good we had many beautiful days at the beach which was wonderful the sea weed cleared up after the 2nd day and we had the expected beautiful emerald green waters the emerald coast is known for. It was nice and quiet at night.
Fantastic location. View was amazing , one minute to beach. Nice to have balcony. Beach is beautiful with emerald and turquoise water, crystal clear and snowy white super soft sand. Condo essentials were clean but vents on walls are filthy with black all around. Floors sticky and baseboards dirty. I would bring extra sheets and towels as only 1 set of sheets. I don’t want to have to do laundry all the time on vacation. Kitchen was clean with tons of dishes and anything you could need. All appliances were nice and clean as well as fully functioning. The towels are old and bedspreads clean but very drab.The host is super, very responsive and got cleaner to come and change sheets and bring fresh towels halfway thru stay (1 month). Laundry was always available and worked well. Condo building is nice and quiet at night. Great location to both downtown Fort Walton Beach and Destin. The chair and umbrella service included was great and much enjoyed. Overall, great spot for your vacation.
We stayed in a corner unit on the 3rd floor. The curb appeal of the bldg itself needs a little fresh paint and maintenance. The inside was cute, and clean. Kitchen was well stocked and nice appliances. King bed was comfortable and both bathrooms were clean, however in need of fresh paint on ceilings and trim. The view of the gulf is spectacular only steps away from the beach. Outdoor pool area was clean and well maintained. Would stay there again.
The view was absolutely beautiful. The place itself was not ok. Ceiling was awful dirty. Vents were filthy. Bath tub in hall was NOT clean at all. Dog hair was on coach so I rolled it with a lint roller. I took and put a sheet I found in closet so I could sit on it. Shower curtain holder in hall bath was rusted. Shower door in other bathroom didn’t have track for the bottom so therefore it swayed back and forth. I feel like I should be reimbursed my pet fee since someone else’s dog hair was everywhere. I took pictures so if the owner wanted to see. To me personally it needs the ceiling painted really good. Vents cleaned. New shower curtain and rod. Glass shower door needs to be fixed before it falls on someone and the owner will be responsible. Needs new comforters or spreads and most definitely a new dish towel because it had holes all in it. Also, there was black stuff on wash rags which look like roach poop. This place needs a lot of love and tender care because like I said it was a beautiful view.
We usually stay some place else, but now that we have a dog, we needed some place that is pet friendly.
We were not disappointed.
After a 9 hour drive, it was so nice not to have to do a check in. Everything we needed was provided by email.
The condo is right on the beach and the private patio that looks over the beach, is perfect for coffee in the morning.
It is an older condo, but it is decorated very well and has everything you could possibly need.
We will definitely be coming back!

Dog poop on patio...had to clean up. ,sewage from up stairs bath came down on me..
It’s hard to find a place that’s Pet Friendly directly on the beach, but we found the perfect spot! Aqua Vila 306 had most everything we needed to make our family’s vacation great! Especially the fact we didn’t have to leave our Yorkie behind! Just a couple of things but our host quickly responded to any issue we had. Biggest issue was only one washing machine was working at the facility which ended us at a nearby laundromat, but again our host notified the manager for needed repairs. Great stay and Loved Okalossa Island!
The condo was absolutely perfect. The views were priceless. Myself, my mom amd my 4 sisters couldn't have been happier. We will definitely plan to go again.
This was a great location and had everything we needed. I wish there was the dvd player that was pictured in the listing since the internet stopped working and never came back in.
Place was overall great and was a friendly atmosphere. The only downside was the king bed was so hard it was like sleeping on the floor so I stayed sore the whole time and the pool water was so hot.
We enjoyed our stay! The pictures and description was spot on. The ocean view and a few steps to be at the beach was wonderful!
The shower door is off track, but that was a minor thing. Everything else was good!
Easy access upon arrival worked out so well!
This is the most beautiful beach I have ever seen in my life. The water was so crystal clear. Not enough days in our stay. We got out one morning and were just feet from dolphins, it was great. I could go in up to my neck and still clearly see my feet. We all loved it. We could see the fish so clear. Not a beach for finding seashells and the association washer and dryer didn't work right but now fault of anyone's here. My daughter had to find a laundry mat.
This place is not well maintained at all. We thought we were getting a nice 2-2 for 4 ladies. The keypad doesn’t work so we only had one key. The washing machines on all 4 floors were broken. It needs a lot of updates and painting. Also needs new furniture. One of the bedroom doors is off the hinges and is stored inside the closet. Our sheets had sand in them and it took two days to get a set of sheets delivered to the room in a trash bag outside the door. The dishwasher had dirty water in the bottom of it and we had to run it and let it air out to use it. There was sand on the floor that we swept up she. We came and nothing was dusted. You can’t wash towels or clothes so that was an issue. They say there are pet friendly but I had to take her to another property to potty because they don’t allow them on the grounds or beach. I tried to contact them and they don’t respond very quickly and just told me to use a washer on another floor.. ends up they knew all 4 were broken. One the day we left the elevator broke and we had a hard time getting off of it. It was horrible! They offered me $100 for my inconvenience after I paid $2300 for our stay. I will never come back.
The property was just as described. Great view of the Gulf. This was a must. They allowed pets. This was a must. There is an elevator. This was also a must. Would recommend and would come back again.
Thanks for sharing. You made the trip possible.

Beautiful view
Was a beautiful ocean front view. We couldn’t check in at 4:00 like it says. We had to wait til 5:00 to check in room. Beds were very comfortable but the couch was dated and smelled like dogs had been on it. For the price it cost, I’ve stayed in nicer places.
