Reviewer Comments:
The condo as a whole is fine. A few basics are missing from the kitchen (a pitcher, for instance), the balcony furniture cushions are worn out and stained, cushions in the dining chairs are flat, and the TV in the master bedroom will only play one channel. Minor things that should be addressed, but didn't keep us from enjoying our week at the beach.

Reviewer Comments:
As always, my vacation overall was wonderful. I love the location and have stayed in the same condo, twice a year sometimes, for several years. I do feel that the patio furniture badly needs an upgrade. Chaise lounges need to be added and get rid of the uncomfortable bench and chairs. The dining table and chairs are sufficient and the 2 rockers. The side table needs replacing; it is broke and the top could fall off and hurt someone. The living room furniture is not very comfortable and neither of the mattresses on the beds. I think it would add to the appeal of the unit greatly if comfort was more of a factor.

Reviewer Comments:
Entering the condo you are greeted by an old dirty foyer rug.broken closet doors in the 2nd bedroom. Screen on patio door was barely intact and eventually came out, rendering it useless. Shower curtains and toilet seats in both bathrooms were nasty and couldn’t be cleaned. Kitchen and bathrooms were terribly outdated. A/C didn’t work the first 3 weeks we were there as maintenance had to come into condo 15 times. And the topper is my corvette got broken into and cost me 500$ to replace glass( no cameras or security on property)
Beautifully decorated with very nice furniture and appliances. Ocean view was outstanding. Unit is quite. Building and grounds are in great condition. Master bed comfortable but very noisy. Older tile floors could be slick and dangerous. Watch your step!

Very nice condo will definitely recommend to others. Beautiful view from balcony!
Beautiful view of the Gulf. The unit and property were very clean. We loved our stay. The host quickly provided linens for the fold out couch when I notified they were not in the unit. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay at this wonderful condo. We spent more time in the condo than ever due to weather this year and had everything we needed to have a great time. We would enjoy staying here again!
Super comfy and great location. Great beach access and love having beach chairs and umbrella. Would love to have notes on where to eat in Okaloosa. We enjoyed Old Bay Steamer--great food. Would stay again.
