The Venus is always a perfect place to stay, especially if you have a large group. We had four different condos rented and we had a blast. The condo was nice. The bed was comfortable and there were beach chairs and a beach wagon to get your stuff to the beach. There were no beach towels so make sure to bring your own.

Donna was a wonderful host. She was accommodating with our request for early check in.We had the basics to get started. The porch overlooked the pool, perfect for coffee in the mornings. Short walk to beach. Clean pool.Location was nice. We could easily get into Fort Walton, or run down to Destin. Would love to stay again.

Fantastic Stay, and short beach walk!

My wife and I stayed here for just a few days to getaway. And we had a wonderful time! Property was lovely, and so close to the beach! Donna was awesome! And so responsive! Only thing I would say, make sure to remember to put a parking pass on your dash, so you don’t get. Warning!!

Sorry about the parking pass & warning. In over 10 years no one has ever been towed, but I should have made sure you knew where they were. Glad you had a good time.

Heaven

We had an amazing time during our stay. The condo was beautiful and had everything we needed. Donna was so easy to contact if we had questions. She even texted to check on us our first night. The neighborhood had everything close by including grocery and discount stores. We definitely plan to return.

Nice older condo steps from the beach

Older condo, fine for 2 nights for 2 adults and a teenager, but the mattress on the fold out couch badly needs replacing, my daughter slept on the couch itself instead. Condo needs a bit of updating, but was worth the rate we paid for it. Walk to the beach was easy and there is a shower and hose on the backside of the condo to wash off when you return. Pool areas was nice and it was a lot less crowded than Mirimar Beach where we usually stay.

Jennifer, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with me. I generally do a little bit of updating each year, but based on your review I will look around to see what needs to be done. The bedroom furniture is about 4 years old and the new bathroom vanity was added 2 years ago. This is definitely an older property but it is well maintained. As for the fold out couch, I have to say I have never found one to be particularly comfortable, but it's great for little kids. My adult son also just sleeps on the couch.

Great value and experience

We stayed 8 nights at the Venus condos unit 207. It was very nice and clean. The carpet and furniture was in new condition and very comfortable. The bedroom was very clean and inviting as well with nice decor. The unit was very roomy and felt like home. The kitchen had everything you would want and the balcony overlooked the pool. I was also surprised how with how close of a walk the beach was. We were very happy with the property and would recommend to anyone. Donna was great to work with and quick to reply by text.

The property was clean, and in great location. Not directly on the beach, but a quick walk away made the price easier on the wallet. Perfect for our needs.

Property 207

We had a great stay at this property. Donna was friendly and provided us with valuable information about the area. The property was clean and had everything you needed. I was pleased that the owner game us a heads up about bringing extra toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags to eliminate the need for purchasing those upon arrival. The beach was easily accessible and not very crowded. My only wish was that the water pressure in the shower was stronger. I have long hair and it makes it a bit of a challenge to get the soap out. I would definitely stay here again. It was a pleasant experience!
