  • My husband and I stayed here in September of 2009. The Condo was wonderful. The emerald green and blue water, just so clear and clean, with that sugar white sand, We just wanted to live on the beach. We invited another couple to meet us there. They had nevr been to florida before and they just fell in love with the place. The condo, the beach, the water, the sky, the food, and the people, and they want to come back next year too! We had excellent views of th Gulf and the Sound. The beds are the most comfortable we've slept on. I could go and on. Our trip was just fantastic!We were immediately relaxed and in vacation mode upon walking thru the door of Lynn's Condo, and you will be too!

  • What a wonderful vacation! When we arrived at El Matador, we were instantly impressed with the property--very well maintained and secure. As we approached the condo, I was excited to see we had an ocean view from the front and back! Lynn's condo was very clean and well furnished with everything we needed to be "right at home" for a week! It appeared as though the carpet, linens, and bedding had been recently replaced. My husband and I stayed at Lynn's condo with our 6 month old baby over Labor Day weekend. The condo was very close to the pool and beach, so it was especially convenient for lugging our gear back and forth. The beach was heavenly and when we weren't there, the pool was a refreshing escape! We also appreciated the binder of helpful hints for sightseeing, dining, shopping, etc. I would definitely recommend this condo for future guests!

  • We really enjoyed staying at Lynn's condo. The views from every room are lovely. The beach is beautiful and within very close walking distance. The location of the condo is very convenient to Destin and many restaurants. The condo has everything one needs to have a wonderful vacation. If we are ever back in that area, I hope we can stay at this condo again.

  • The condo was beautifully decorated, clean and spacious, with an awesome view of the Gulf. The beach was a short walk away. The beach was beautiful, with white sand and emerald water. I hope that my family and I will be able to visit again soon!

  • Lynn, Hi, this is Tim Cassidy, speaking for both me and my mother Helen. We had a great time at the condo, and the longer we are back here in (still) cold PA the more we wish we were back in Fort Walton Beach and your condo. My 81 yr. old mother had misgivings about flying, since she last flew 15 years ago, and I had misgivings about flying and being away from home for 10 days because of a painful spinal condition I developed 2 years ago. If you fly coach like we did, those airplanes are cramped even if you are in perfect health. Well, we made it and it was the perfect place for us. My nephew is stationed at Eglin Air Force Base, and since he and I are very big music fans we decided to visit during the New Orleans Jazz Fest. Fortunately the whole trip worked out perfectly. We were very impressed with the beach, much nicer sand than us northerners were used to. I also did not realize that Gulf has waves! I was expecting a quiet still lake (which my nephew said sometimes happens) but he's learning to surf, and it made me jealous that I'm 57 and can't do those things anymore--even if I was in perfect health! If I could I'd be giving kiteboarding a try also. Speaking of health, I use whirlpools up here as part of my physical rehab, and it was so convenient to have a whirlpool next door in the complex. My nephew Brian was a great guide, taking us to The Red Bar in Grayton for some Sunday afternoon live music, and a couple of out-of-the-way eateries in Destin, in addition to a tour of the Air Force base. He drove the rental car for our 3 day stay in New Orleans, which I was surprised to find was only 4 hours away. Jazz Fest, however, was really crowded, and after the peace and quiet of Fort Walton Beach and your condo it was a bit of a shock, but it was a good change of pace. We were very lucky with the weather: perfect until we were flying home, then the rains came. But otherwise a wonderful vacation and hopefully we can do it again. Thanks, Tim

  • After having viewed many rentals and read many reviews we decided to book with Lynn. The reviews were all good and the pictures on the site were beautiful but still we wondered if it would be all that it appeared. It was! We had a wonderful time! We enjoyed the waterviews from the kitchen, living room and bedroom. We enjoyed the white sandy beach and the fact that we could walk on the beach for miles. The condominium had all of the amenities of home and although we had nice weather and spent most of our time at the beach, there was lots we could have done in the area had the weather not co-operated. We hope to return!

  • Lynn; Thanks again for the use of your condo at Fort Walton Beach for the month of December. It was great to be only 15 minutes from our son and his family at Hurlburt A.F.B. Using your condo as our home away from home really worked out just right. Your condo was really great. Everything we needed was at our disposal. The high speed internet was great for us. We were able to attend soccer games at our grandaughter’s school,,attend Fort Waltons Christmas parade the Boat parade at Destin and shop, shop, shop with the grandkids. And eat at all the nice restaurants.Learned a lot about Fort Walton Beach. The beach is great. Nothing beats the white sand at Okaloosa Island.Now we are back in cold Ohio wishing we were back in Fort Walton Beach. Maybe we can do it again next winter. Bob and Evelyn Springfield, Ohio

  • I've been back from Ft. Walton Beach for 20 days now and I still am enjoying the relaxation from staying at your condo, Lynn. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the convenience. The weather was perfect, the lack of appointments and schedules was just what we needed. Your condo is a friendly, warm and happy place to stay. Everything we might have needed was there. Thanks you so much. We will surely be looking forward to another visit next year.
