The best property we’ve stayed at on Okaloosa Island by far. The listing was just as shown on pictures. The view was great. We would stay here again!

Thank you for the 10/10 review! We’re glad the property matched the listing, the view stood out, and the stay was enjoyable. We appreciate you choosing the Nautilus and hope to welcome you back.
Wonderful stay. Clean. Well stocked. Convenient beach service. Decent view of the beach. Also took advantage of the grocery service. Could use more spices to cook with.

Thank you for the wonderful rating! We’re thrilled you had a great stay and enjoyed the stocked kitchen, beach service, and the view. Glad the grocery service made things even easier. We appreciate the suggestion for additional spices and will take a look at that. Hope to host you again soon.
Overall, it was a great stay! Condo was very clean and it was easy to communicate with the staff onsite. Location/proximity to the beach was great. Just a couple minor things to note, with 6 people in the condo, the hot water goes quick! We adjusted and got better with timing so that everyone had enough hot water for at least a quick shower after the beach. But the first day half of us had a cold shower! And the dryer took at least 2 cycles to dry clothes. Definitely not a deal breaker - we still overall enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

The condo is updated and very well maintained. Kitchen was full stocked with everything we needed during our stay. I loved sitting on the balcony in the mornings watching dolphins pass by while my husband and son fished from the pier that was just a couple of mins away. Beach service was no hassle each day of our stay. The kids loved the pool that was heated and shaded in afternoons. A few of our favorite things: Goofy Golf, the track, and eating at Doc’s oyster bar, G I Jades, and A J’s We can’t wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at nautilus. The condo was exactly as pictured. Short walk to the beach with sand toys, floats etc always available to be used. The included beach service was super convenient also. The pool was nice and never crowded. We saw staff constantly outside working on things and keeping the facility nice and clean. The office had beach activities available for checkout also which was nice. No complaints at all!
