Beautiful view of the gulf. The AC worked amazing. Beach tenants that rented out the chairs were so nice and easy to communicate with. This unit did come with 2 chairs and an umbrella. 15/day for an extra chair, which we found reasonable. Beds were so comfortable. I’ve been coming to the Destin ft Walton area for years and these beds were the best. Cozy condo worked great for our girls trip. I would def book again in the future! Only negative I would say, is I wish they had another chair on the balcony! This condo can sleep up to 8 guest but only 2 chairs and a lounger on the balcony. But other than that it was perfect!

Christina, we’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the beautiful view of the Gulf and found the AC to be just right for your stay. It’s wonderful that you had such a cozy experience during your girls trip, especially with those comfortable beds. We take pride in providing a space that feels like home, and it sounds like we hit the mark for you. We appreciate your feedback about the balcony seating. While the condo does come with two chairs and a lounger, we understand that having more seating would enhance the experience for larger groups. Your suggestion is valuable, and we’ll certainly keep it in mind for future guests. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and we would love to welcome you back for another stay in the future!

Beautiful beach view with chair set up and friendly staff. It is a large condo with tons of space and beautiful upgrades. My only recommendation would be for you all to add more furniture to the balcony to accommodate larger parties And to have some baskets of blankets to curl up on the couch or use for extra warmth at night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

4 STARS.**** Great family vacation. Can’t wait to vacation here again

We enjoyed out stay very much. But towards the end of our stay the bathtub faucet started dripping and would not turn off completely and the volume on the living room tv quit working. We did have poor internet service on the beach but ok in the condo The condo was beginning to show some use and needed fresh paint but overall we loved our stay. We loved how close we were to the beach! So convenient to go back to the pool or condo if needed. We would recommend staying at this location

Great time

The condo was clean and the location was great. The tub in the master bathroom was tall which made it a little difficult to get in/out of. A hand rail would be helpful. We needed a cookie sheet and couldn’t find one in the condo. I called and within ten minutes someone brought us a new one. We would definitely stay here again!

Staycation

My friends and I had an amazing staycation. This unit was absolutely perfect and well kept. Let’s not forget about the view of the beach, so beautiful. I highly recommend. The only thing I recommend is putting which building the unit is in East or West. It was a little frustrating because everyone initially went to the wrong building. But that’s minor, we ended up having a great time.

Sleepless Nights

The overall footage and view was good. The front door needs repair, the master (to hard) and full size(sink holes) mattresses needs to be replace......the refrigerator freezer would not stay close, it will open when the frig side opens/closes....we lost our ice cream. We have had better stays, this unit need some updates, very dated.

Great location!

Great location, very close to Publix, restaurants, etc. Condo had a top notch view! We love waking up to coffee on the balcony. The upset was how poorly stocked the kitchen was. Had to buy my own measuring cups, stock pot (which I took with me, sorry). Usually there are coffee filters, salt and pepper...be sure to bring your own.i don’t think the closet with the bunk beds and a night stand should be included as a true bedroom. I truly thought it was 3 bedrooms and a bunk room, my bad. Overall it was good.

A few things need fixed, but overall a great condo

The dishwasher was broken, maintenance apparently came to fix it (we didn’t see them) and. I thing was fixed. The dryer needs to be replaced or fixed, it barely heats up so drying beach stuff was very slow. I also think that when spending this much money on a condo a few more trash bags, toilet paper rolls, hand soap, bathing towels should be included. The front door also needs repair, it barely closes it’s so warped. However, overall, it is a great condo with an OBVIOUSLY amazing location! Weiils stay here again, if upgrades were made.

Wonderful condo

I want to tell you all the wonderful things about this property! First the location is one of the best, Okaloosa Island is so beautiful, white sand gorgeous sunsets and lots of delicious restaurants to chose from. The view of the Gulf from this particular condo balcony is one of the best I have ever seen! Lots of parking, very short, easy access to pool and beach. Nice stocked kitchen we cooked lunch everyday. Plenty of towels. The only thing I can complain about is the master bed is terribly uncomfortable, so much that I don’t think I could stay again if not changed. I dreaded going to bed each night. It got very cool at night when we were there and the bed linens were like having three sheets. If the owners would upgrade the mattresses, invest in quality linens and consider adding smart TVs with streaming access this would literally be the best condo you could ever stay in especially for the price!! If bed comfort is not a priority for you then you will enjoy this condo it still is one of the best we have stayed in!

Overall good but still lacking

We have stayed at this property for 12+ years but never this particular unit. We would not stay in this unit again. First issue was that when we originally booked there was chair service included like in many other units. When we arrived we were told this was no longer true. We contacted the property manager to inquire and were told we needed to produce photos of the property description of when we booked. Lesson learned we will do that from now on. The chair service ended up costing us an additional $200 out of pocket. The chair service owner was fantastic and worked with us to enjoy our stay despite issues with Vacasa. The room was mostly clean. However the area rugs were stained horribly. You could tell they once were light colored but now are almost dark gray with dirt and stains. Overall it was a nice room and mostly clean but due to our issues we will likely not book with Vacasa again nor stay in this unit. We will continue to stay at the property with other units and property booking managers.
