Great location and beautiful condo. Kitchen is well stocked, the master suite is huge. 2 pools makes for plenty of space for kids to play or adults to relax. Condo is on a nice stretch of road that is not crowded, but you're close enough to get to restaurants and attraction quickly.

Great location

We have been to Ft. Walton many times, but this time we brought the whole family. Plenty of room and perfect set up for 10 people. Blu is beautiful and the pools are amazing! This condo has everything needed and communication with Vacasa was easy!

Great property

This was a great property for our group. Kitchen could use some storage containers and the multiple codes for gates/entries/doors was a bit much. Overall I would recommend this property.

Family Beach Vacation

This condo is beautiful! Exactly as pictures show. Perfect beach front view. There was plenty of room for our family of six to spread out. Small kids loved the bunk bed room. Code required to enter the parking lot and pool/beach area so we felt very safe. Kitchen stocked with anything you could possibly need. Would definitely book again if we return.

Reasonable access to everything, sleeping arrangements were as expected, the owners provided everything bedding wise and some extra blankets and pillows. Kitchen was a great plus, it is a gas stove so be prepared for that. The washer/dryer was a great touch, but the dryer started having some issues drying things fully on our last night. Overall though, this is a great stay and definitely made our vacation complete!

Thanksgiving 2021

Eleven members of our family spent 6 nights here. We enjoyed it all--quick access to the beach, the unit itself, the condo complex and amenities, and we appreciated access to the owner's beach equipment and bikes. One thing that caught us by surprise: if you're planning on using the trundle beds, be aware that they are not really usable due to the room configuration and furniture being in the way. All in all, a great place to stay!

Family Fall Break

The location and views were great. Enjoyed the beach and pool. The property managers were responsive and helpful. The one time we attempted to use the outdoor grill it did not work. You should advise renters to bring their own sharp knives for food prep and indicate the size for coffee maker filters as we had standard filters and they did not work. We would go back.

Donna, thank you for sharing your experience, we're pleased that the location of our home served you well and that you enjoyed your family getaway! That said, we're sorry for the issue you had with the grill and our local manager assured us that since your stay, the HOA has fixed it. Also, housekeeping has added additional knives and we thank you for your feedback. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we look forward to hosting you again.

Great location and lots of space

This is one of the newest condo complexes on the beach so it is updated and great amenities. It’s also very large and could accommodate a lot of people. Right in the beach and 2 pools. The management is accommodating and quick to respond. The floors and area rugs were dirty. The floors had definitely not been mopped prior to our arrival in any of the rooms. The pots and pans were very worn out. That said I would stay here again I would just mop the floors.

Blu 305

Condo was great. We had 2 families with 4 members each. Plenty of room, and very comfortable. Kitchen was nice with plenty of dishes. I would say if I had to pick thing that wasn’t great, it would be the pots and pans. They are dated, and not enough pots. Overall this is a great condo with plenty of space with one of the best views you can have. Would return to Blu 305.

Family time at the beach

We thoroughly enjoyed the condo with just a few suggestions. The place was very nice and clean except for the kids bedroom. Under the bunk beds had not been cleaned for a long time. We were a little disappointed that the essentials like toilet paper, trash bags, and dishwashing liquid were not provided. Even things like salt & pepper and paper towels were nowhere to be found. It was over an extra hundred dollars to stock it up for the next visitors.

Thank you for your review, Ken, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at our beautiful home. We sincerely apologize for any aspects of the home that you found in need of attention as well as any supplies in the home that you found lacking. We strive to provide guests with spotlessly clean and comfortable homes and an exceptional vacation and regret to hear that we did not meet our standards during your stay. Please note usually a starter set of travel-sized toiletries, basic cleaning supplies, and paper products are provided to start our guest's first weekend out on the right foot. Additionally, while we do ensure that our homes are stocked with the necessary items to cook full meals, pantry items such as salt, pepper, and oil are not typically provided in our homes, unless by owner's choice. We strongly encourage guests to plan ahead if they anticipate needing additional items during their stay. We will be sure to follow up with the appropriate parties regarding the cleanliness concerns presented, as well as the follow-through of our starter sets of supplies for future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to host you for a truly incredible stay in the future!

Blu305

Our group of 12 had an amazing time in this beautiful condo. The pictures don’t do it justice. So spacious, very clean, and beautifully furnished. The house had everything we needed for our four night stay. It was amazing to wake up and look right out to the beach. The amenities included two pools, one heated and the other one not heated. We used both pools. It was also nice having the heated spa. Prime location to restaurants, activities, shopping and grocery stores. The only con we would say was that the kids room didn’t have cable, roku connection or smart TV for them to watch. Bring movies or dvds for the kids room because there is a DVD player.

Our home away from home

This was our second time staying at Blue 305 and we hope to make this our summer tradition because it truly is our happy place. The pictures don’t actually capture the beauty and perfection of the condo or of the whole building itself. This is truly our happy place. The staff is so friendly and professional. The property managers are available and responsive. The property was clean and smelled nice. The location is perfect!! The condo is absolutely great for every member of our family - our 14 year old son has privacy and space to himself while our 11 and 9 year olds were close enough to us but also had their own space to play and sleep. There is so much living space to hang out and watch movies, play board games or to cook and eat dinner together. The balcony views were gorgeous! We can’t say enough about this condo and we will definitely see you next summer.

Needs some maintenance & a good cleaning.

We have stayed in several Blu condos & have been very satisfied. As always the view & the beach were absolutely spectacular. This particular unit just needs a thorough cleaning. There was a lot of dust build up on dining room lights, around bed frames & food particles trapped on the back of bar stools. The kitchen trash can needs replaced as the lid is rusty & filthy. Bedroom lamps & barstools are also looking old as rust has formed. The back bathroom sink was so clogged that my friend had to get a toothpick in order to pull out a trapped ball of nasty hair. Mantenence was called regarding a clogged toilet in the master bathroom but it wasn't fixed until the following afternoon. Outlets in the master bath weren't working & the toilet paper holder fell off in the jack & jill bathroom. This was the first unit I've stayed where there weren't any dish cloths only towels. And no laundry soap. I hate to be too negative as it is a lovely unit. However, since it's not an inexpensive stay, i believe standards should be higher.
