Family Vacation

Took son and family for vacation. Wonderful choice for everyone. Kids loved beach, pool, and access to lazy river. Adults loved access to Boardwalk, beach and amenities of condo...couldn't beat convenience of 1st floor with patio and direct access to pool. Condo was well equipped with everything you could want from blenders to iron and board to hair dryer and curling iron...if you needed it, it was there! Can't wait to return!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that your family vacation was a hit for both the kids and adults. It’s wonderful to know everyone enjoyed the beach, pool, and lazy river—and that the first-floor convenience and well-equipped condo made your stay even better. We love being able to provide those little extras that make a trip more comfortable and stress-free. We can’t wait to welcome you all back for another unforgettable getaway!

Overall a nice stay. Convenient to the beach and able to walk to dining places. Only downside was the main pool wasn’t heated and so we couldn’t swim in that. There was a smaller pool that was heated however.

Best family vacation

This unit was well equipped with everything you need for a vacation, had comfortable sleeping accommodations, including a door to the bunkbed room. We enjoyed the extra amenitie of 2 beach chairs and umbrella set up for us everyday at the beach. We already book this unit again in the fall it was so good!

Christmas at the beach

This was our first time traveling to the Fort Walton/Destin area. We were able to book a last minute trip away for Christmas and had the most amazing time. Our condo was wonderful, it had everything we needed, plenty of space for the 5 of us (two adults, 3 kids) and the location was perfect. This is my new favorite vacation spot and we will definitely be back!
