Brooks team was super helpful and the guide was great for all info.Not a huge deal but note for elderly visitors. Elevator was super slow and pool being on top floor meant no bathrooms at beach level.

Perfect location with low volume condo on both sides. Left beach access easy and no issues with crowding. Condo was immaculate with plenty of space for family and all furniture and appliances were in perfect working order. Beach chair service was perfect addition to rental and the city cleans beach daily for perfect white sand and water that is crystal clear. Close enough to Destin for entertainment off the beach but removed from crowds for full relaxation. Will definitely stay again! ##### Crystal B.

This was one of our favorite condos we’ve stayed in. Nice furnishings, fully stocked and great deck. Twin beds were squeaky and one twin mattress slanted to one side. The floors had not been mopped well and caused feet to get dirty if not wearing shoes. Otherwise, all was great and everything else was very clean. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### James Q. 30 May 2024 #### Not sure about recommending to a friend.......

Housekeeping leaves a bit to be desired. End tables were dusty. There was a red stain on the coverlet on the master bed. On a positive note, maintenance was prompt, efficient & polite. ##### James Q.

Reviewer Comments: Unit was nicely remodeled and equipped. We would consider location again . Siding glass door and handle needs some attention. Difficult to open and close. The beach service needs some coaching about customer service and who is the the customer. We raised our umbrella up about foot so we wouldn’t hit our head. The young man came over and told us his boss told him he had to lower the umbrella.

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: If you want to sit on the patio and look directly at the beautiful sand and water then this place is perfect. On the positive side, it is roomy, clean, steps to the beach and included two chairs and an umbrella from the beach service. Communication was great from the rental company and we were very comfortable there. On the negative side, it’s older and could use some freshening up. Also didn’t like that we had to bring a hair dryer- seems like a basic item you shouldn’t have to use precious suitcase room for. I’m originally from this area and know that traffic can be challenging getting to restaurants and stores, but I would absolutely stay here again. It felt inviting and had a lot of space. Note: we didn’t really cook but there seemed to be all the essentials. ##### Brenda T. Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin M. 14 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice and clean rental I have no complaints about the rental unit itself. It was probably the cleanest rental that we have ever had! Beautiful ocean view and easy walk to the beach. Our only issue was the building construction. We were made aware by the property manager that the parking lot was under construction, but we’re told it shouldn’t be any kind of inconvenience, just a little messy. The only issue we found with this was having to walk over dirty painters tarps trying to get in and out of the building. However, several of the other units were also being renovated, which led to significant noise and mess. The internet was disconnected several times. The mess wouldn’t have been such a big deal if we didn’t have a toddler who picked up a razor blade, paint chips and a screw that were left laying in the walkway. ##### Erin M.

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: This property is very well maintained, clean, & comfortable. The description is accurate regarding the amenities and how easy it is to get to activities.Daily, long walks on the beach were amazing. The Boardwalk at Okaloosa Island is about a 1.5 mile walk via the beach. A great way to start the day! The kitchen was well stocked, there were plenty of clean bath towels available, plenty of hangers in the closets, as well as a hairdryer in each bathroom. We will definitely use this same unit again when we return for another reunion. We loved it!For future guests, just be aware this isn’t the type of rental that has spices & oils available for cooking. You need to purchase all of that as well as dishwasher & laundry soap if you plan on doing more than a load of each.We were fortunate enough to meet the owner of the property and tell her in person how much we loved her place and how well she has kept it updated over the years. Cheers to more years of staying on Okaloosa Island! ##### Cyndi B.

This condo is super cute, super clean and had everything we needed for our beach vacay. There were plenty of towels and extra trash bags so I didn’t have to use any I brought. Plenty of storage if you like to unpack all your stuff. The kitchen had every utensil necessary and was modern. The balcony was the perfect size to have the family out in the mornings or evenings and gaze at the crashing waves. We would have liked a few more blankets but that didn’t make it a negative a stay at all. The master toilet/shower room is cramped but it fulfilled its purpose and you aren’t in there long anyway. Highly recommend using the Explorie options available to you as we LOVED the Cattywampus dolphin/snorkeling tour. We also never had an issue getting the beach chairs provided which was so great. The condo next door is closed for renovations so maybe that will make it busier once it opens. The rooftop pool was different, fun and clean. It was quiet during our stay as well. The property manager called to let us know we could check in early but we weren’t there yet but that was nice. I totally recommend this property! ##### Christie O. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022
