Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2004

I am a retired business owner (child care) and my wife is a retired special education teacher. We have lived in Bowling Green, KY, for 40 years.
We travel with our yellow lab, Kelsey, 8 yrs. old. We have two adult sons.
I spent four years in the Air Force as an x-ray tech during Viet Nam era.

Why the Owner Chose Island Echos

This is a quieter neighborhood than Destin, but close enough (7 miles) to visit there.
The area is perfect for older adults and adults with (or without) small children.
Shopping and dining are minutes away and the view of the beach is breathtaking.

The Unique Benefits of this Condominium

We enjoy the one minute walk to the beach and strolling along the waters edge. I also enjoy walking our dog in the beautiful, bay front, residential neighborhood across Santa Rosa Blvd. where the condo is located.
The balcony is our favorite room and is used 12 months/yr.
We like looking out at the Gulf from the second floor and not down on it from higher elevations.
We are directly above the pool deck and can communicate easily with each other from the balcony to the pool deck.
It's fun to eat in and watch the sunset which is always pretty.

    • If you are looking for a condo that has everything, this is it! We found the amenities in the condo superb. The decor is attractive and cheerful. The beautiful view of the Gulf, from the balcony, is beyond description. From sunrise to sunset, it is breath taking. The beach is clean and well groomed. Nearby are delectable restaurants to suite everyone's palate. Shoppping is close by. This condo will host a memorable get away.

    • I just wanted to let you know that you have a beautiful condo. We really loved our stay. The view was breathe taking. We can't wait to stay again! We are already planning another visit and would not think of staying anywhere else.

    • Thanks for sharing your condo with us! Our visit was brief but it was excellent. September is a great month to enjoy Okaloosa Island as the water is very comfortably warm and tremendously clear...You won't want to leave!!! If you are searching for a one bedroom condo directly on the beach, then your search is over. Stop looking at all of the rest and call Doug Foster (the owner) and book this unit immediately! You won't be disappointed. The living room is very spacious and has an unobstructed view of the gulf. In fact, the balcony nearly hangs out over the dune and the surf is just steps away. The kitchen is fully equipped and you could eat every meal right in the condo if you don't want to take advantage of all of the great eateries in the area. We also enjoyed being able to park just outside the unit in the covered parking. If you are tired of looking at all of the listings and trying to make a decision, call Mr. Foster right now to see if this unit is available for your stay.
