🌴 Off-Season Value (November–February) SNOWBIRDS
November through February is our off-season, offering quieter beaches, cooler weather, and our lowest rates of the year. Guests interested in extended winter stays are welcome to ask about special monthly snowbird pricing. During this time, associations and owners may schedule routine maintenance, updates and improvements, so there may occasionally be nearby daytime noise between November 1 and February 28. Our reduced seasonal rates reflect this possibility.

We enjoyed our stay. This was our second visit in this unit. The only thing wrong is that the bed squeaks really bad.
Nautilus was a bit older property and the elevator made a few noises but the property was clean and well maintained. The unit was exactly what was advertised and very clean. The staff were friendly and very helpful. All this contributed to a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Enjoyed some much-needed ‘me time’ in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, relaxing at the Nautilus. Peaceful mornings sipping coffee on the balcony, ocean views, and the sound of the waves were the perfect escape to recharge and reflect. Kenan and Jerry Lynn were so friendly and helpful . Definitely planning to return

Reviewer Comments:
Nautilus 1605 was everything we needed. Good space and layout for a 1BR condo. Great location right on the beach with a perfect view. Appreciated that the property management coordinates with the beach rental company to include a chair/umbrella setup in the price. Especially appreciated was the friendly staff who helped to ensure we had what we needed, answered questions, and addressed any issues. The island itself isn't incredibly walkable, but we're very excited to visit once the construction is complete and the greenway goes to Destin. Did enjoy being right on the coast, with easy access to explore Ft. Walton. Would recommend to anyone visiting that area of town.

We have vacationed in Fort Walton Beach for years and have stayed at Nautilus Condominiums numerous times.This was our first time staying in Unit 1605 and we are glad that we discovered this jewel! The view of the beach and ocean is awesome from the 6th floor. The unit is decorated tastefully and the furniture is comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with cookware, utensils and dishes. The onsite management is great!

The condo was very clean and the views are great! We did run into a couple of issues. The mattress in the bedroom needs replaced, it is not comfortable and you can see that is indented from being used for so long. The sheets for the pullout couch were not dirty but did have a stain on them. I had clean blankets that I used instead for my kids.

Thank you for the review and the feedback! Sorry you were disappointed in the mattress in the bedroom, often times mattresses are subject to personal preference, the mattress in the bedroom is a high quality mattress and we have received positive feedback related to the mattress also. I apologize for missing the stain on the sheets for the pull out couch, as you noted they were clean but we must have missed a stain on them.

Reviewer Comments:
We rode out hurricane Sally at the Nautilus. We lost power and had a bit of water intrusion, but I still give 5 stars due to one person. The morning after the hurricane, all of the bridges were closed so the only employee there was the GM - Cheryl, who lives on the property. She was amazing, going from condo to condo and checking on everyone. She was also being bombarded with calls from concerned property owners who were checking on their units. She worked her tail off and I never saw her discouraged - the Nautilus is in fantastic hands with Cheryl.On top of that, the place has been renovated since my last visit with new sliding doors and windows; in addition to an overall exterior paint job. It really looks nice.You can't beat the location with a very short walk to the beach and a Tom Thumb store in the adjacent parking lot.

Douglas,
