RESORT & AREA
Sea Oats Resort is a mid-sized, seven-story beachfront condominium community located on the shores of Okaloosa Island in Fort Walton Beach. Built in 1983, the complex consists of 80 units, offering a residential atmosphere that avoids the high-density crowds of larger resort towers. This resort provides guests direct access to the white sand and emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico via a private boardwalk. For those who enjoy staying active, the property features onsite lighted tennis courts that are also marked for pickleball. The gulf-front sun deck serves as a central hub for the resort, including a swimming pool and a hot tub where you can swim or lounge while looking out at the ocean.
Located about six miles from the Destin Harbor Boardwalk, Sea Oats provides a quiet island atmosphere while remaining close to deep-sea fishing and dolphin excursions. The resort is within walking distance of several local attractions, including the Okaloosa Island Fishing Pier, the Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park, and the various shops and entertainment options at The Boardwalk. This proximity allows visitors to enjoy the Destin area's amenities without staying in the middle of heavy traffic.
Parking: Free uncovered parking is provided for up to 3 vehicles with each reservation.
Food: For groceries, you're just a short drive from Publix at Shoppes at Paradise Pointe or nearby Winn-Dixie, making snack time and meal prep stress-free. On Okaloosa Island, Stewby's Seafood Shanty is the top choice for affordable fresh fish, while Old Bay Steamer is a local favorite for high-quality steamed shrimp and crab. For breakfast, Asiago's Skillet serves massive portions nearby, and The Gulf offers unique waterfront dining in a chic, outdoor shipping container setting. A short drive into Destin brings you to McGuire's Irish Pub for its famous steaks and lively atmosphere, or Boshamps Oyster House for fresh oysters with harbor views. Louisiana Lagniappe provides refined Creole seafood, and the original Dewey Destin's Seafood offers an authentic "old Florida" dockside experience. Don't forget The Donut Hole for its legendary breakfast and handmade pies.
