Okaloosa Island

Beautiful property, exceptionally clean and very well stocked. Wonderful large tables indoor and out with ample seating for our family of seven. Okaloosa Island was beautiful as always. Only complaint is we couldn’t stay longer.

Family time at the Beach

Excellent place to stay. Very convenient to get to the beach with no roads to cross. 2 beach chairs and umbrella included. The place was very clean and the balcony is amazing for just sitting out and enjoying the ocean waves and the beautiful sunset. Will definitely be coming back.

Stellar condo with fabulous balcony

We needed a fairly large condo for our family and this was perfect. Beautiful condo. Roomy and tastefully decorated. Large kitchen with Viking appliances. The balcony is huge with a gorgeous view of one of the best beaches in the country. Parking and entry was easy and the hostess was accessible. The best vacation rental we’ve used yet. I highly recommend.

Impressed with this condo

From the moment we walked into the condo, we loved it! It's spacious and beautifully decorated. The balcony was a lovely place to dine or just sit & watch/listen to the ocean. It was well stocked for items needed & a few extra perks--hand soap, shower gel, etc. We liked being toward the end of the beach, it seemed more private!

Great condo

Every thing was great except it offered free WiFi and there was none so I had to rearrange my schedule because of that which wasted two days of my vacation and the owner never offered any compensation … but ask me to let the repairman in I would stay again because of location and property But when you offer something and you tell the owner it’s not working they should get it fixed or offer you something for the amount of money spent !!!

Perfect Family Vacation

Family vacation to celebrate my mom and dads 50th anniversary. We had an absolutely wonderful time. Everything was very clean and exactly as described in the listing. It is the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed in. Just go ahead and book it. You won’t be sorry. The deck was wonderful and the house easily accommodated our family giving everyone there own space. The pool was nice and heated. We hope to come back again next year.

Wonderful 40th birthday celebration

Just spent a wonderful week at this property. Everything was wonderful! We had 7 adults and there was plenty of room for all of us. The view from the balcony is breathtaking! The host is very attentive, and the cleaning crew was great. It was spotless when we checked in. The only thing we noticed it needed was more kitchen towels. We will definitely return!

Absolutely our favorite!

This condo is everything and more than expected, the pictures do not do it justice! There is so much room, we never felt cramped at all and it has one of the most comfortable couches ever! The kitchen is very well stocked as well as the bathrooms and laundry room. The communication with the owner was very prompt whenever I asked questions. I cannot say enough about this rental, we will definitely be renting it again!

Spring Break 2022

Can’t beat this property! Water is beautiful, beaches are clean, large and comfy deck with access from 2 master suites, well maintained pool and hot tub-we really had no complaints! There are plenty of places to eat close, a large fridge for a big group, separate ice maker for coolers/drinks and you’re RIGHT ON THE BEACH. We really enjoyed our stay! When we had a small hiccup with a few appliances after a major storm the owner was easy to contact and quick to get addressed. 100% recommend.

Highly Recommend!!

Couldn't have asked for a more perfect getaway! The condo is even more spacious than the pictures show and was perfect for our family (6 adults, 2 kiddos). It's located in a smaller, secure complex with chair/umbrella service right on the beach. And oh my gosh, the balcony!! Amazing views. The hosts are very responsive and helpful with any questions. Only complaint is that the week went by way too fast! ;) We can't wait to come back!!
