Comfortable Condo

We stayed for 2 weeks and had a great time. We really enjoyed the warmer weather, the awesome view and wonderful beach to walk on. The condo was very comfortable, well maintained and well decorated compared to others we have stayed at. We enjoyed the pool, hottub and the fitness room. We had a minor maintenance issue but Sandra took care of it immediately. We look forward to coming back again.

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Blanke

Host profile image
Fun people with a love for being close to the water. When we are not enjoying our lake home we are at the beach in this fabulous condo!

We love helping our guests. Our welcome package provides restaurants, things to do, a recommended grocery list and our cell number for guests to reach us for any additional questions.

Why they chose this property

After looking for 5 years at Florida condos we finally found the condo that as soon as we walked in we knew it was the perfect condo for us. Beautiful ocean view right on the beach, great facilities in the Island Princess and the perfect location in Ft Walton. This condo is one of the very few with a private front entrance, three sets of glass doors with easy access to the wrap around balcony and beautiful ocean view.

What makes this property unique

We stay in our condo a number of times each year. We want it to have all the comforts of our home for us and for each of you. You will find a fully equipped kitchen, nice towels, mats, beautiful comforters, rugs, extremely comfortable recliners and great balcony furniture. This condo has 3 granite bathroom vanities, (2) tiled walk-in showers and (1) tub and shower combination all fully remodeled and beautiful.

This condo has a great master walk in shower, new tile, new mattresses in all bedrooms, granite counter tops in the kitchen and each bathroom. All appliances, pots, pans and dishes you will need for that great meal.
