AMAZING VACATION RENTAL

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have stayed at this condo a couple times now and each time has been just wonderful. The view cannot be beat- waking up in the master to a gorgeous sunrise! The porch is huge and the ice-maker in the unit is so thoughtful! Has everything you need for a great vacation and the master bath upgrade is beautiful. They even accepted a grocery order for me and put it away prior to arrival!! Love this unit and will keep coming back.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: great location the staff was very nice and communicative.The unit was pretty clean, however the furniture is definitely in need of updating..the beds were very uncomfortable & forget about sitting on the living room furniture for an afternoon nap or to watch tv & unwind very old and broken down. Some items available for use in kitchen were not working (blender & margarita machine) balcony furniture old as well but functional. Would stay at property again but not this unit without updates.

My best vacation yet!

I’ve been all over the emerald coast in several different condos. This one was by far the most convenient. Hardly ever a wait for the elevator, easy, plentiful, parking. Convenient location. Short walk to the beach. The condo was well stocked and comfortable. The building was clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again

Our Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The room was very nice and clean. The pool was very small for the size of the hotel. It could have used a bigger pool. The neighbors above us was very loud all night and kelp us up all night, and the neighbors a couple of doors down got in a argument in the wee early hours and the cops came because of them. But the hotel was overall clean and in a nice area. I would stay there again and hope for better neighbors.

Great location

Love that the umbrella and chairs at the beach came with the condo. Disliked a weird smell when you first walk-in to the condo. Outdated furniture and kitchen cabinets as well as bathrooms. The master bedroom comforter had a stain on it and food and leftover food in the night stand draws. Cleaning crew came to change it out but just walked into the condo with no knocking or anything to announce their arrival. Wrap around balcony was perfect. Could see the dolphins in the morning. Perfect location to the beach. Probably wouldn’t stay at this condo again but possibly another one in the same building.

Dolphins and manta rays.

We hit at a perfect time sunrises and sunsets over the gulf easily viewed from the balcony. We were also greeted daily with dolphins, herons osprey and manta rays in addition to normal shorebirds. The nature was great but the condo and staff were perfect. Unit 1606 was so perfect for our loves. Access to the beach was simple as was accessto the pool. To be fair the condo is a little older and the furniture is not brand new, but the price was appropriate.

Love rhe View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The balcony is the best part of the condo. We spent many hours looking at the white sand and blue water. Once the sun set we gazed at thr stars from the balcony. The unit was cleaned well. We were disappointed to find out that the sliding glass doors from the master bedroom did not open. The washing machine had mildew on the gasket inside the machine. Everything else worked well. We appreciated the beach service. The Nautilus property is very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. A convenience store was a quick walk away. We are looking forward to staying at Nautilus again soon and definitely recommend Nautilus for anyone who wants to enjoy the gulf coast

Cockroach Infestation Nightmare :Property Mngmt Unsatisfactory

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Paid a month in advance to Nautilus Rentals prior to arrival on May 16th. At that time and no time after were we notified of the roach problems that have repeatedly been treated in the unit, which would have afforded us the opportunity to cancel or reschedule the reservation. We were caught quite off guard when we discovered the bugs in the ice maker, on counter tops, on floor and particularly when lights were turned off! We killed on average 20+ roaches daily before and after the unit was sprayed (by your own staff and then by professional pest control) We have been regular visitors to this unit and other units at Nautilus since 1999 with NO previous issue regarding roaches or bugs for that matter. So in good faith we trusted that the unit would be clean and bug free, especially after opening up after the Pandemic year of COVID-19. An infestation of roaches ism not only a health hazard but additional stress even with something as simple as meal preparation-wash all cooking and eating utensils prior to use, keeping all food within direct eyesight during preparation so as small baby roaches don't crawl from underneath countertop into fresh food being prepared on counter, and even when serving food for the meal making sure it is NOT left on stovetop or counter uncovered. We were unable to store ANY closed condiments or baking preparations in cabinets as we have in the past. And no fresh fruit could we leave out on counter for fear of finding bugs on it. EVERYTHING we brought for cooking had to be kept either in large plastic sealed boxes or stored in the refrigerator. Even cereal had to be put away, in this case stored in freezer because we had no more room in the plastic boxes! Preparing to leave we had to carefully inspect everything we packed away in the kitchen and even in luggage. Our luggage from the trip we kept in our Garage tightly sealed in a large garbage sack for two weeks! Condo Rental Manager was to investigate & get back to us-still hasn't.

The condo is clean and well furnished, if slightly dated. The huge balcony and view more than made up for it! We loved our stay and would rent again if we were in this area. Suggestion: provide an iron and hairdryer. I had a hard time getting ready for the wedding without these items.

Spring Break

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I love the Nautilus - I come at least 2 times a year with the exception of last year. However, i will never rent this unit again, but my favorite unit 1506 was already booked. The owner of 1606 needs to spend some money for much needed repairs and updates. Some of the lamps just did not work, had to add buy light bulbs for the night lights, the beds are stiff as boards and of course just general updating. Wall paper peeling. and put cable TV in the master bedroom. But as I said, i love unit 1506 but will never rent 1606 again. Thank you.

Beautiful views & location

The Nautilus is in a perfect spot on the island and if you have a gulf front it’s amazingly beautiful. Our place was nice but needs a renovation. Some of the art work, wallpaper and the master bedroom mattress seemed from the 80’s/90’s. Huge ice maker in the kitchen is great for refilling those coolers! Loved it at the Nautilus.
