These lovely two bedroom condos, directly on the beach, are located on Okaloosa Island, which is between Fort Walton Beach and Destin. It is the best vacation destination for the family, golfer, shopper or fisherman. There are no high rises in sight, as nothing over 7 stories is allowed on Okaloosa. Because our units are in smaller buildings, and have plenty of waterfront, the white beaches and the teal Gulf waters are never crowded, making it simply paradise! Many people say these are the most beautiful beaches they have ever seen. Television, surveys and magazines rate the Emerald Coast among the top ten beaches in the world for its beautifully colored waters and sand as white as snow.

In our "just remodeled" featured unit, you can relax on your private balcony, and watch the dolphins jumping less that 100 yards away, or choose one of our other units. All units directly face the beach! Need more... Ask us about our referral network. For more pictures and information, please see our web page.

    • We had a very relaxing week in your condo the week of October 10-17, 2009. The sunsets were spectacular. The beaches were like flour. We had some nice waves early in the week, and hot temperatures too. We will definitely be back!

      Homeowner Response:
      You're right, Fall is one of the best time to visit our beaches!

    • My family stayed in this condo the last week of April. We had wonderful weather, especially when it was raining the whole week at home. The condo was so bright and comfortable. The views were amazing. We really enjoyed sitting on the private balcony and listening to the waves at night. We really enjoyed the week and would love to come back again next year.

    • Aqua Villa #306...wow, what amazing views! Nicely decorated condo right on the beach that allows dogs...how can you beat that? We had a wonderful time. Our 2 pugs loved to lay on the balcony and watch the waves and people on the beach. Thank you for allowing us to bring them.

    • We enjoyed our stay very much! We really enjoyed how close to the beach the condo was located. It was nice to get up in the a.m. and walk right onto the beach w/ a towel and a smile.

      Homeowner Response:
      Hopefully you wore more than that onto our beaches ... they are not THOSE kind of beaches! ;-)

    • AV306 was a great condo with a fantastic view. You are close enough to the water to hear the waves. We saw the Dolphins every day. Anything I would want changed would be for the complex to open up the side yard for pets.

    • Hello again, Just wanted to say what a wonderful time we had. Even after the winds of Hurricane Ike it was still beautiful and the weather was great. We had the best time. If you want someplace to relax this is it...Also if you want to be very active you can do that. We chose to relax and watch the sun rise and set and enjoy the waves washing up on shore and walking the beautiful white sand beaches. What more can you ask for. Thank you again for allowing us to stay in your home. We want to return again next year (Good Lord Willing). There are some friends of ours that are interested also, sure will pass it along.. Thanks again and see you next year. Fred and Victoria

    • We just returned from what was a great week and we want to thank you for letting us stay in your marvelous condo - AV306!! The unit has absolutely beautiful views! There is everything in the condo that any vacationer could want or need. The weather was fabulous until Hurricane Ike started churning the Gulf on Wednesday. We had many great meals: Old Bay Steamer was fun and the food was good; Fisherman's Wharf; and our favorite, Staff's. We also had a great meal and good service at Captain Dave's in Destin despite the bad reviews we had read on line. Thank you also for allowing the dogs and they also enjoyed the balcony!! We certainly hope to make a return visit new year. September 13, 2008. Pat & Jerry Carter

    • This was our second stay at this condo and as we expected it was WONDERFUL! We saw dolphins on more than one occasion in the morning. The kids enjoy catching the little white crabs after dark using flashlights. We were disappointed that the Destin Diner wasn't open anymore but we had a wonderful lunch at The Crab Trap and an awesome breakfast at Another Broken Egg. We were a little concerned that TS Faye was going to dampened our vacation but we had a wonderful week weather-wise. It was PERFECT! We will definitely be back to visit again....Thanks for sharing your home! :)
