Vacation Rentals by Owner

Love me some Ft. Walton Beach!

We have always loved staying on Okaloosa Island but hadn't stayed at the Surfdweller in 20 years. Didn't know what to expect, but was pleasantly suprised to find 202 exactly what we had hoped for. The condo was spacious, clean and we loved being on the 2nd floor. While the mirrored walls were a little dated, the fact that there was several young women with us, no one had to fight for mirror time...! We had easy access to the stairs or elevator if needed. Of course it didn't hurt that the weather was glorious and now that we have the girls out of school, I will definitely try mid May again....plenty of room on the beach and no waiting at local eateries...Love that! Try it...you'll like it!

We had a great time staying here on Fort Walton Beach. The sand and water was absolutely gorgeous, just like the pictures showed. The condo was clean and spacious and balcony was great to sit and just relax watching the ocean. Will definitely go back here! We did go to Mobile Alabama to tour the USS Alabama and really enjoyed our visit there .

Family vacation for a wedding

We would have enjoyed better weather, but the accommodations were great. My husband and I, two daughters, one son-in-law, two grandchildren (and for one night another little cousin) had a great time -- plenty of room, no problem finding mirrors when we all needed to get ready for the wedding at the same time. The beach access was wonderful, very easy! We wished we had more days unconnected with the wedding so that we had more time on the silky soft white sand. The balcony was a wonderful spot to sit and talk, watch the surf and share a glass of wine. Great vacation!

We enjoyed our stay at surf dweller very much. Management was very helpful in all areas. We did point out several items that need attention and was assured items would be corrected. Again thanks ror a wonderful stay. We have renewed our stay for Dec to March.

A great spot and a great view!

We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our vacation! The condo was perfect for eight of us: 5 adults, 2 teenagers, and one toddler. The location is a very short drive to the heart of Destin restaurants and away from all the traffic. We loved being slightly secluded that way. We would return to the condo after going out, relax, and have a wonderful ocean view! If it's available for our next vacation to Destin/Ft. Walton, we will definitely book it! Thanks, Teri, for everything!

The condo is great nice spacious and clean looks exactly like photos and it had a great view of the beach. Owners were very nice and very considerate and made us feel comfortable just as if we were at home. Owners responded quickly if you have any questions. Great place to relax and kids had a great time as well. My family will return next year. I would definitely reccommend the condo and there is so much to do. Thanks!

Great place to stay

I dont go to florida often but thus is my place when i go back. From the parking lot the elevator is about 15 feet and the condo is about 15 feet. Being on the second floor the stairs are a great option. For some reason i have to constantly go to my car for something or to put something in it. The few times i called Teri she answered immediately or retrurned my call while her phone was still ringing. She made me feel comfortable and never alone. Absolutely a joy to deal with. Give her a try if you get a chance. PS It was my 40th wedding anniversary and I wanted it to be special and it certainly was,

Perfect location! We slept to the sound of the waves each night and enjoyed the beautiful beach scenery every morning. Did get to see the dolphins in the morning! The space is wonderful. Plenty of room and enough privacy for two forty-somethings and teen son with a friend to enjoy a wonderful long weekend. Thanks Teri for EVERYTHING!

Because I have heard only wonderful things about this condo from the guests, I thought it was high time the Manager went to see what all the fuss was about!!! Thank you to all the guests who told me how wonderful it was! I was finally able to go and enjoyed it as much as you said I would! Coffee in the morning watching the ocean, wine in the evening watching the sunset!!! Absolutely wonderful!! I will go back again....thanks to all of you!

WOOHOO!!!! WHAT A VIEW! THIS WAS AN AWESOME CONDO THE VIEWS WERE TO DIE FOR. IT WAS CLEAN AND FRESH AND VERY SPACIOUS. THE ONLY THING I WOULD LIKE FOR THEM TO ADD IS CABLE TO THE 2ND BEDROOM. BUT WHATEVER YOUR ON VACATION NOT SUPPOSE TO STAY IN THE ROOM ANYWAYS. THE OWNERS WERE A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH AND VERY ACCOMADATING. WE PLAN TO RENT FROM THEM AGAIN.

Owner response:Per your request...cable has been added :)
