Slice of paradise

Highly recommend. We stayed with our 6 children for the second time. The kitchen is stocked well for cooking in the room. The condo was cleaned well and everything was functional. Comfy furniture. I enjoy that the condo only has 10 units. It is never crowded at the beach in front of the condo. The beach access is highly convenient for trips in and out of the room throughout the day.

Okaloosa Heaven

Blue Dolphin is the perfect location "on" the beach. #303 is beautiful and so is sitting on the balcony listening to the ocean. This time of year was not crowded, ocean beautiful and the dolphins were plentiful. Manager of the property provided all the info for the condo and quickly replied to any question. Yes, we'll be back.

Girls trip

The property was in a quiet location. Literally steps from the ocean and had a beach front balcony. Breaktaking. Could here lots of footsteps from condo above. Would def try for 4th floor at Blue dolphin for next time because of that. We would for sure come back to this location. Great communications! Messages answered within minutes with questions or comments. Furniture was a bit worn but we made due. Twin beds are small and need replaced. The not crowded location made up for it and the windows in the living room were grand. There was some construction of a new building next door so we were up early every single day :(! Clean, great place and weather was amazing for our visit! ❤️

Always Nice

The price is right for the property and it's always nice to be at the beach at fort walton. The condos around this property are small so the beach isn't crowded, that is a very nice part of this property.

Perfect location

Location of condo was perfect. Beautiful gulf view from balcony, easy access to beach and area not too crowded. Short driving distance to restaurants, grocery store, entertainment. Walking distance to pier.. Now some things I did not like: Condo had a musty odor that was pretty stronge at first. Bathroom sink in 2nd bedroom drained really slow, one of the twin bed mattresses need replaced, living room furniture not comfortable and it would be nice to have a few more trash bags . Overall enjoyed my stay

Best location in Fort Walton

Best location in Fort Walton. Amazing view from all windows. Nice varanda. Surrounded by low buildings that do not bother the view. Perfect access to the beach. Great beach service. Enjoyable living room, roomy bedrooms. Loved our stay and looking forward to get back!

Blue Dolphin experience

We enjoyed our stay at Blue Dolphin 303. It has a beautiful view, was clean and convenient. Check in was a piece of cake. The only issue we had was you could here every foot step above. With kids running back and forth up there was a bit much at times. Also parking is very tight and cable would’ve been nice. Property manager was great.

Location good.

Unfortunately it was an extremely stressful & uncomfortable 10-day stay due to constant loud noises the entire time from above condo tenants (two different tenants) - it never stopped except maybe between 11 pm - 6 am. The upper floor must be just wood or thin tiles as there was no cushioning/softening of the sounds. I was exhausted from the constant & excessively loud banging, HEAVY footsteps, running, screaming, slamming drawers; (thought there was construction going on), I could even hear snoring above at night. This particular issue really ruined my stay. Owner called HOA but nothing changed. Have to mention the door knob on door going from living rm. to balcony was broken - I got stuck inside and outside on balcony for several minutes at least a dozen times . Don't know what I'd have done if I had been alone at the time. Reported it to owner who already knew of the problem and was told to just leave door unlocked...couldn't even fully close it or it would have gotten stuck again. Good thing I didn't have a young child with me. Couldn't take a hot bath for my back pain - bathtub old & grimy didn't want to sit in it. Bathrooms need updated; water pressure nil. fyi - Don't expect one pantry. Just saying some condos I've been in had the basics. Parking extremely tight cause everyone drives big vehicles and lot is tight. Didn't appreciate house keeping knocking on the door early (twice) to get in to clean several hours before check out time. Pros: master bedroom - bed was comfortable. Living room furniture was nice & comfortable. The condo was roomy & location on the beach is very good.

Location fantastic

We loved this unit's location. The only thing that was annoying is it had no pantry items at all....salt/pepper, dishwasher soap (gave 2 pods), toilet paper (gave 1 roll/bathroom), paper towel (gave one roll), zip lock bags, Tupperware, saran wrap, tin foil, dish clothes, etc. Only had 4 beach towels even though the unit sleeps 8. The mgr was responsive and the check in process was very easy. The pool said it was heated but was very, very cold.

Beautiful View with a Responsive Owner

We selected this property based upon the good reviews, budget, and location. The positives: The view: amazing view from the large windows and balcony. The size: this is a large condo with plenty of space to move about and not feel cramped. The location: right on the beach, close to restaurants, amenities, and attractions but far enough away that the beach never felt very crowded. Condo utilities: internet was reliable and fast, the AC and heater worked very well, and water heater was sufficient for hot showers/baths. The owner: Marco was very responsive and was obviously committed to making sure we had a good trip. The so-so: Parking: it's tight. While it was never a problem to find a spot, they are narrow and parking a larger vehicle takes some coordination. The pool: Yes, the condo has a private pool but it's not heated. This may not be an issue during the busy season when it's warm but in mid to late March during Spring Break a heated pool would have been wonderful. This will factor into our decision to stay here in the future depending upon the time of year we visit. Check-in procedures: I could have missed it, but I never saw in any of our check-in procedures the room number of the condo. The only way I knew which condo to go to is because I saw "303" in the reviews. The bad: Ceiling water stains: there are several water stains on the ceiling throughout the condo. This was discussed with the owner and was told this will be remedied soon but advance notice would have been nice. Noise: Perhaps this to be expected, and it's not specific to this property in all likelihood, but expect to hear footsteps of your upstairs neighbors the entire time you're there. Initial Cleanliness: there were a few areas that needed additional cleaning detail (jetted tub and dust on walls near air returns). Marco was quick to send someone out that day to clean these areas but the entire condo could use a deep clean to address collected dust in some areas. Deferred maintenance: there were a handful of light bulbs out, a bathroom vent suspended from the ceiling, some minor loose floor tiles, and a broken security door latch. None of these issues by themselves were major but cumulatively they add up. But again, Marco was quick to get someone out the next day to address many of these issues. This place offers a comfortable stay and take confidence in that Marco will respond to needs. I was impressed with how he handled our concerns. A+ owner!!!

Perfect little getaway

We love staying at the blue dolphin condos. This was our 2nd time in 303. I only had one question for the owner and he answered it quickly. The condo itself is perfect and you are literally a few steps from the beach. One drawback and it’s really not that big of a deal but there’s no cable. All the TVs are Roku equipped with Netflix, Amazon etc. I don’t have a problem with this cause I use all those apps. I could see it being a problem for people that don’t normally use YouTube or Netflix. Anyway who comes to the beach to watch television anyways. We had a great time again and can’t wait to come back soon.

Coronacation 2020

We made reservations for this unit before COVID hit. We looked specifically at Blue Dolphin. We have stayed there 2 times before. The small property means no lines to use the elevator and no overcrowding on beach or at the pool! My family of 5 loved it! The size and layout of Unit 303 Was perfect for 2 daughters in high school and college and a first grade son to all have their own space. Marco was super to respond to me before the trip when I was nervous about going. He also responded when we didn’t get the tv figured out at first. And had someone fix a broken toilet handle in the same day. Couldn’t have asked for more! We had a great time!

Great Place to Stay!

This was a great place to stay! I am military and stayed here for training for a few months. The location is great and right on the beach. You can't beat the view!!! The condo is clean and has great amenities. The owner was great and easy to work with. It is in a corner unit, so you not only get the great view towards the beach from the balcony but you also get a great view from inside the condo with the large windows. I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking to come to the area!

“Felt like home”

My wife, daughter and I picked this place to stay while I was down here for a 3.5 month TDY. Marco made booking very easy and was flexible with our long term stay. Throughout our stay he was also very friendly and communicative with anything that came up, from fixing minor maintenance issues to coordinating checkout. The condo is flat out awesome. It’s in good condition, and is one of the few places I’ve ever stayed at where the photos match reality. I’ll miss the views of the beach every morning while drinking my coffee before work! My wife and I were reflecting back on our stay, and she said “you know, within days of moving in, it just felt like home.” Could you ask for much more? If you want a home away from home while you’re here for days or months, let Marco know and he’ll fix you up! One of the biggest bonuses here? The area around the condo doesn’t have the big resorts close by, so there’s plenty of space on the beach and it’s never crowded. Also, beach service is included! Zero complaints, amazing stay, and we’d come back signing a second through. Thanks Marco for the wonderful memories!

Would go back!

We enjoyed our week vacation at this Fort Walton Beach condo very much! We hope to go back next year, the only downfall was that the balconies were under construction and the view was a little blocked due to the scaffolding. It's a nice condo, a nice location and was a very relaxing experience.
