We stayed for a week and it was a great location! We really enjoyed the view. Clean when we got there and ready on time. The pool was very nice. Only complaint would be the sheets on the bed not fitting correctly. The fitted sheet on the king came off every night... We would definitely stay there again.

Everything was perfect but the floor was disguisting.. Our sock were black from walking only a few times and We did NOT enter the hotel room with sneakers or anything im sure the floor was not mopped at alll.. One of the bathrooms was missing a toilet paper but over all nothing too crazy!! Definitely recommended!
The Nautilus Building is a little old, but inside the condo was great and updated. Master bathroom and shower was fantastic. Master bed a King and nice. 2 entrances to balcony was nice. The door separating master bedroom and living room was broke and unable to use. There were 3 large tvs with Roku in kids bedroom with Disney+. The kitchen was large and nice. The pool was decent and cleaned every morning and never crowded. Property has carts to make easier to take bags to and from condo as well as groceries. Overall property was quiet and very family oriented. We unfortunately picked a week when June Grass was thick on the Fort Walton Beach the entire week of our stay, but we improvised and went to another beach. Overall, we would definitely stay in this unit again. Decent price.

It was wonderful, our family had 3 condos. 2 gulf view and 1 ocean view, it was so fun to all be so close together and just to be able to walk out onto the beach was amazing. Then at night, we all met in the ocean view condo and ate and played games with the kids and/or sitting on the deck to watch the sun go down. There was a full moon and the light just shimmered off the ocean! The Nautilus condos are updated and Well taken care of and clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful, we are all hoping to come back next year! 5 star vacation! 🥳👏🤩

Everything, from choosing the unit on the website, to checking out was very easy. The Nautilus staff keep us up to date before our check-in day through emails and texts. We had all the information that we needed by the time we arrived so there were no questions about room access, beach information, etc. The unit itself had the best stocked kitchen of anyplace we have ever stayed, with pots, pans, utensils, and small appliances. Everything was super clean and comfortable. The view of the gulf was good. Beach access was easy. Everything outside was well maintained.

The Nautilus has been our go to vacation spot for years! This was our 1st stay in 2308 and it was wonderful! Great location close to elevator with a great view of the beach from the balcony. Fully stocked kitchen and we cooked a lot! They have a Keurig which isn't listed in description, but was a plus for us! The beds are firm. The master shower is amazing! The decor is beautiful and relaxing. Very clean. The walk to beach is short, which was good for my bum knees! Having the chairs and umbrellas is a huge plus!!! Melissa was very helpful and friendly, she even served popcorn one day next to the pool! As you can tell, I would definitely recommend The Nautilus and this condo! 🌞
