Okaloosa Island Beach Getaway Nestled Between Destin Harbor & Downtown Ft Walton
Get ready for GOOD TIMES AND TAN LINES! Our relaxing 1 bedroom ISLAND OASIS is prefect for a couple or small family. Tropical Isle Condominiums, Unit 110 - Only steps away from the white powdery sands of Okaloosa Island Beach or the swimming pool (non-heated), this first floor, well decorated and furnished unit is designed for ease and comfort. The bedroom has a king size bed, smart tv, full dresser, bedside table and ocean facing window to enjoy the ocean sounds and air. The bathroom is in the bedroom and has a full bath/shower combo and vanity cabinets for storage. The fully equipped kitchen should meet most any needs with a variety of appliances to include a dish washer, full size stove, microwave, and refrigerator as well as cookware and bakeware, toaster, water kettle, George Forman grill and crockpot. For your morning cup, we have a Keurig Duo (bring your favorite K-cups or brew a whole pot with ground coffee). The long counter doubles as an eating and gathering space with 4 bar stools. The kitchen is open the living room where you can relax with an additional smart tv, sleeper sofa (Queen), two comfortable chairs, a small dining set with 2 chairs and a large window to let in some of the Florida sunshine. Take a break under the covered back patio with seating for two and listen to the ocean. Our unit has a front and back door for convenience but the keypad entrance is at the front door (roadside). Card operated laundry facility on site (bring your detergent, etc.). Located on beautiful Okaloosa Island, you can take advantage of sunrises and sunsets from the boardwalk or take a stroll across the street through the bayside neighborhoods and discover your favorite spots to watch the sunset. On the island, there is plenty to discover and enjoy including fishing or nature watching from the Okaloosa Island pier, many parks and public beach accesses, hidden bayside nooks, delicious brunch spots, shopping and restaurants, mini golf, ice cream and bike rentals. (* Some of these offerings are dependent on the season you visit.) Our favorite island eateries are Old Bay Steamer, Crab Trap, Stewby’s and Fubar (sports bar with outdoor bayside seating-sometimes the bar and outdoor seating area get lively and upbeat after dark but offers a peaceful waterfront lunch opportunity). If you want to venture off the island, you are only a couple minutes from either Destin or downtown Fort Walton Beach. Convenient to Publix and tons of eateries. On the Fort Walton side, our favorite thing to do is rent Bird scooters and ride around downtown Fort Walton where you can take visit multiple bayside parks, casual restaurants or fancier French, Italian or American local restaurants with sea or land options. We love Bay Cafe, Ali’s Bistro, Magnolia Grill, Sealand and Clemenza’s. If you go in the direction of Destin, the closest of our favorites are Maguire’s Irish Pub, Boshamps, Brotula’s, Louisiana Lagniappe, Dewey Destin’s (we prefer the bayside location over harbor side for the super casual, outdoor, waterfront atmosphere- and watching the heron roost).

It's great that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for the kind words. We look forward to having you back!
This location was so nice and clean. It had all of the amenities we needed and was so close to the beach that we could walk there in just a few minutes. It was the perfect place to stay!
We had an amazing stay here. It's close to the beach and not far from the Publix grocery store or there's a little convenience store next door. Communication with the host was excellent and she was so helpful. Plenty of towels and a little porch to sit and relax. Definitely recommend for small families.
We had a great vacation while at this adorable condo
We spent a week at this adorable condo and loved it! It is literally steps from the beach, a little over a mile to the pier and the area has fabulous sea food restaurants. We are in the process of planning another trip back next year. Thanks Jackie!

Beautiful and perfectly located.
This condo is in the most ideal location. It was absolutely perfect for my 8 month old son. The beach here was not overly crowded and was clean and family friendly. The condo was in perfect condition and we could not have asked for better.

About the host
Hosted by Tracy Baldwin
This is our family condo and a mother/daughter business. Renting our condo out with my three girls helps to afford us the ability to have a beach place within our means but also to offer the same to others. It has also helped teach my daughters responsibility and the value of hard work. My oldest adult daughters take turns helping me manage the condo and have both invested sweat and tears into giving it our touch. We love this place and have worked so hard to create a beautiful place at a reasonable price. We have spent countless nights putting in work each year to avoid incurring extra costs, all in order to keep prices down. We hope you can feel the love we have put into creating our happy place.
