RESORT & AREA:
Bella Riva Resort offers guests a getaway experience with spacious tropical grounds, sea dunes, private beachfront balconies, pool, hot tub, and ample covered parking. Beach access at Bella Riva Resort is user-friendly with minimal stairs and rinse area. The beaches of Okaloosa Island are as pure white as beaches get. The sugary soft sand is found nowhere else in North America, attracting visitors from all areas of the world. Wade in the crystal clear water of the Gulf of Mexico. This stretch of beach is part of Florida's Emerald Coast, stretching from Panama City to Pensacola.

The resort is centered on Okaloosa Island in Fort Walton Beach, , offers 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom Fort Walton Beach Condo Rentals. Nearby, you will find plenty to do. Putt Putt Golf, GoKarts, and the Gulfarium Sealife Sanctuary are perfect outings for the young ones.

Para sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, go karting, jet skis, dolphin tours, bungee jumping, and water parks are just a drop of what Destin offers.

Parking: Free gated parking is provided for this unit for up to 2 vehicles. One space is covered, and one is uncovered. Other vehicles must be parked offsite, and may be parked at our office located in Fort Walton Beach.

Food: Dining options near the resort include Beachview Breakfast and Grill just a 2-minute walk away. The Shack, a local staple for waterfront seafood within a short drive of the villa.

Great stay

Second time staying here. This time it was for two months. It's a little more costly than the other condo complexes around it, but if you are looking for style and comfort, Bella Riva is worth taking a look at. A few minor issues arose, but nothing that either I or Randy and his maintenance staff couldn't attend to. The only addition I can think of would be a gas grill on the deck. (The connection is already there) I would stay again.

Bella Riva 202 is Gorgeous!

This condo is everything you want and more for a luxurious vacation. Exclusive, gated and beautiful property and location. The only suggestions I have is to do away with keys and get door codes. Pool needs an upgrade it was at the opposite dnd of our condo.

Beautiful vacation spot!

This condominium was more than what we were expecting and was such a wonderful surprise! Extremely clean and very comfortable. Even my husband, who is not much of a beach person, loved this condo with its top of the line kitchen, beautiful decor and great sized balcony with top of the line patio furniture. For those of us that love the beach, we could be sitting seaside within 2 minutes! Sunset Resort rental company was always very responsive to all of our questions and inquiries. We would definitely come back and we will definitely be recommending to friends and family!

Wonderful vacation

Great location! The location was farther down the island, which was great! Gorgeous condo! The view outside the balcony was beautiful... natural dunes, not overlooking the pool. We were provided a "starter kit" of necessities, i.e. toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher and laundry soap, until we were able to go to the store. The kitchen was well stocked, everything needed to prepare and serve meals.

Bella Riva April 2021

The Bella Riva condo we stayed at was beautiful and very well equipped. There was more than enough room for the 4 adults and 4 teenagers that stayed here. The only issues we had was the supply of just one key for the unit and no type of keypad or lockbox entry, it was very inconvenient to have to juggle the key. I was also disappointed in the size of and location of the pool. For the price charged I would have expected a much more impressive pool. Probably look for another condo on future trips due to pool.
