This condo was very nice and clean. Close to everything, beaches, restaurants, dog park. It was pet friendly. The grounds and pool were well kept. Love that it was on the ground floor, the bay and pool literally just a few steps from the patio. Definitely would stay here again when in the area. And definitely recommend this studio condo to everyone, you will not be disappointed.

Our stay at this Sand In My Toes condo was absolutely wonderful! The condo was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing beach getaway. The view of the bay and marina were nice to walk each day. The location made it so easy to enjoy the pool, beach (just a 6 min drive), great restaurants, and local attractions. We especially loved how comfortable and welcoming the pet friendly space felt—it truly felt like a home away from home. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Fort Walton Beach!

We just checked out of this very charming Sand in My Toes. The studio is tastefully decored, the bed was nice & firm and our stay was very comfortable. Great location as the beach, restaurants and the stores were all very close. We didn’t have time to use the pool but it was right outside of the back patio. We have enjoyed our stay here and can highly recommend.
