Great place to stay and very nice host company. The two twin sleeper chairs were not able to be slept on because of their actual size but there was a cot and air mattress option. Overall very happy, would recommend!

This condo was excellent. Absolutely beautiful view of the bay but also close to the beach. The pools, especially the lazy river, were a big hit since it was double red flags our entire stay. Condo was super clean and close to pretty much everything.

Labor Day weekend

Stayed with my adult children, 3yo, and infant. condo was nice and fantastic view. we enjoyed all of the ementities and will come again. Kitchen was not overly stocked but we had all we needed for two meals in, and there is a grilling area which was nice. I highly recommend if you are looking for a resort that is quite and out of the hustle and bustle.

Vicki, thank you for your review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, but not sure what the $500 charge is you are referring to and you may need to reach out to vrbo direct to get a better answer for that. With our listings, you should have only been charged the vrbo service fee and any "add ons" you may have selected when booking. We hope to see you again soon.

Relaxing

If you are looking for a beautiful, clean place to stay with your family for a warm relaxing getaway look no further. This amazing place will not disappoint. We had everything we needed and the all of the beds were comfortable. There’s a balcony that overlooks the bay with plenty of patio furniture and the perfect view of the sunset. A trip across the sky bridge and a short walk takes you to the breathtaking ocean beach. There really is something for everyone to do here! Plenty of restaurants, attractions and plenty of shopping.

Condo is worn

Condo is dirty and needs updates, but will sell because of amenities. View is great. Patio furniture needs fixing. Lazy river is great, plenty of tubes. Even swam in the harbor since the gulf was full of seaweed.

Spacious unit with nice view

We were there for a boys baseball tournament. It was great for what we needed. This unit was spacious with a nice view. My only negatives are that the decor is very dated compared to most other units which made it someone dark and you can’t tell from the pictures. This unit would be great with some updating and if it were a little better stocked with the basics.

Stuff we experienced needed a little change

May need to update listing as the second pull out bed that was a love isn’t in there anymore. It didn’t affect us but could someone else. Also the broom that is in the closet to use is so small. So may need big one. The floors were very sticky. But overall was a great stay and would stay there again. Great location and beautiful view

Review Heron 502

Beautiful place. Better instructions on remotes and cable in living room would help. We got stations in the bedroom that we couldn’t get in living room. If you turned the Tv off in living room the Tv in bedroom would go off. The pillows in master bedroom left something to be desired. There should be a warning on how HOT the water gets in this condo. Plenty of dishes and appliances. Nice place. Would highly recommend.

Great spot for families!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo is well equipped-kitchen has pots and pans galore, lots of cooking utensils (both for indoor and grill use), cookie sheets and muffin pans. Washer and dryer in unit were a great addition and they even included a drying rack for towels and suits. Beds were comfortable, plenty of hot water for showers, games and books and beach cart with two chairs. We loved the pool and while there were times of day it would be crowded, we never had an issue finding chairs or floats for the lazy river. The beach access bridge was great for making a safe crossing and I also enjoyed the gym-larger and more equipped than many resorts I've been to. The views were stunning, location was convenient and we appreciated how much quieter and less busy Fort Walton was compared to Destin. We reported two minor issues and they were immediately responded to-the texting option is so nice! What put my review to a 5 star was their response to a random request we had-two of our grandson's toys ended up on the balcony below ours. When I called I was told that unit wasn't managed by the same company so I'd planned to wait until morning and call the HOA. A little while later they called me back and said they'd done some digging and found the management company and discovered the owner was staying in the unit-they coordinated with them to get the toys returned. We appreciated that so much! I'd definitely stay here again.
