Beautiful views!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was really great. The beds were comfortable, location and views were excellent. We enjoyed the beach everyday and even when we left the beach, the balcony made us feel like we were still at the beach. The only negative is the property manager. She was completely inflexible and treated us with contempt, even on the phone when we made reservations.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Apr, 2026
hank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the condo, found the beds comfortable, and loved the location and beautiful views. It’s wonderful to know you were able to enjoy the beach every day and that the balcony helped keep that beachfront feeling going even after leaving the sand. We are sorry to hear that your experience with management was disappointing. We always want every guest interaction to be positive and professional. In regard to one area of misunderstanding, there was a last-minute reservation in the unit the night prior to your arrival, so the condo needed to be fully cleaned, inspected, and have a few maintenance items addressed before it was ready. We understand how that may have caused frustration, especially when travel plans are involved. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve both communication and guest experience. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.

Beach get away 2018

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I are repeat customers to Fort Walton Beach. We always stay at the Nautilus condominiums. Our vacation this year was fabulous as always and very much needed. We stayed in 1601, ocean front with rap around balcony. The Condo is updated through out except the bathrooms . Towels were ripped and stained on some of them. Should be replaced. House keeping didn’t clean the condo completely( which is the only time this has happened in all our stays). The bathroom in the master had dirty sinks with makeup on the cabinets. The kitchen sink and countertop needed cleaned. The floors had a lot sand on them. We still loved our stay but disappointed in the cleaning . I think the screen doors need replaced as well.

Hi Deborah I just want to tell you that I am sorry this happen.We have been trying to inspect all units before guest check in and this unit was missed. I want you to know that we are trying to make sure all of our guest have a great time and everything in unit is clean. Please the next time you come in if there is anything wrong in the unit call me or come down to the office and I will make sure we take care of it the same day. I know sorry doesn't help now but I really hate that we dropped the ball on this one. When you book again please know that I will take care of you to make sure your stay is enjoyable. Thank You Linda Rhodes Rental Manager

Sister Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our third stay at Nautilus, but each stay was in a different unit. We love the larger end units like this one that gives you spectacular views of the sunrise and had plenty of furniture on the balcony that we used daily. Although we eat out most of the time, this kitchen was very well stocked with anything you would need.There were some minor things that need repaired, but I left a list with Nautilus so that these problems could be addressed. We will always eat once if not twice at Stewby's and we really enjoyed Lost Pizza. They have live music starting at 6:30 on Monday nights.

Balcony great, inside worn

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If it wasn't for the balcony & view this would have been a bad unit to rent. It's really worn, furniture (especially sofa) is old & some is torn. You have to put pillows under the head on the sofa because it's lower than the foot. Screen door in loving room didn't slide & in bedrooms you really had to work to get them open/closed. It's in need of renovations. Honestly, I felt it was overpriced & did not live up to the pictures. This was our 3rd time @ Nautilus & we liked that unit a lot, just wish it were higher up than 2nd floor. We won't rebook this unit again though we will stay at The Nautilus, staff is very nice.
