We enjoyed our stay. The condo was comfortable. The patio needed attention. Cookware & iron needed upgrading. We had to ask for bathroom tissue & hangers for our clothing. They did respond with tissue and hangers after I called.
I don’t want to be negative but some attention would improve the condo.

This unit offers easy access to the lazy river. Well appointed unit. We unfortunately had a lot of rain but enjoyed all the inside space and huge covered lanai. Not to be overlooked, incredible water pressure!In this unit made getting cleaned up a breeze after a day of play!!

Very Nice Place
This condo is very nice and well stocked, beautifully designed. It has plenty of cooking utensils and beach equipment/tents/toys. The location was great and we stayed busy the entire time. It provides walking distance to activities for ex. putt putt, jet ski rentals and restaurants. Our family enjoyed our stay and would rent again in the future.

Condo was exactly as listed and very comfortable to stay in. Our friends and family had a great visit using the pool, hot tub, and lazy river.
We had to purchase salt, pepper, spices, coffee, etc. but this may be a change with Covid for safety. We just made another run to the local Publix once we realized those items weren't provided.
Can't wait to visit again! Thank you.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was spacious and had plenty of room to stretch out for our family of 5 and my parents. There were plenty of seats around the dining table and we loved that we could cook and still be a part of the action thanks to the pass-through. The lanai level was perfect and I don't think I'd ever consider staying on an upper floor. Being able to walk right down to the lazy river and pools was fantastic! Our only complaint would be the cleanliness of the condo. I know there are a lot of shortages still thanks to Covid, but pictures were dusty, Cheeto-type finger prints on the walls, and dirty doors, made it feel a little yucky going in. We grabbed some Clorox wipes and wiped down everything including the leather furniture which helped. It's a small enough space that a top-to-bottom cleaning wouldn't take more than an hour to an hour and a half if you're working hard. There were broken toys and sea shells left on the lanai table, which again, no big deal, but made it feel as though it wasn't checked over. The lanai was great to sit on and we used it a lot. My only suggestion would be some lounge chairs. The condo comes with a grill, but the rental agency does not supply propane which is a disappointment and something we didn't know about until it was too late to cancel. We had to carry the empty tank to Tom Thumb to have it replaced for $20. It also comes with a starter supply of cleaning products and about 6 garbage bags. No big deal if you have a car, but for those who are planning on flying, be prepared to bring some or add it to your grocery order. We would definitely stay again because of the location and room to spread out.

Great experience
We had our 8 year and 12 year old and it was perfect for them and us! 5 minute walk to the beach, easy access to the lazy river, and our own private hot tub was amazing! The condo was very nice and spacious. Plenty of extra blankets and pillows. Tvs in all of the rooms worked great! Couldn't have been happier with our stay!

Fun Family Spring Break Trip
The condo was very nicely supplied and furnished. It had everything that you would need for a nice relaxing trip. The location of the condo was great and the kids loved the direct access to the pool. The private hot tub was a bonus. We would highly recommend this to our friends and family and we would stay here again if we are ever in the area.

Loved it!
Beautiful condo with more than enough room for 10+ people. The hot tub on the balcony was AMAZING and the whole resort had a lot of family friendly amenities. The walk to the beach wasn’t bad although it was kind of crowded there. Julie was easily accessible and an amazing host. Only thing is maybe more blankets in the condo and the bathtub drain fixed

We recently stayed in L-09, and compared to other units our friends and family stayed in, this unit was decorated much nicer, very clean, and plenty spacious to entertain large groups. The ground floor is very convenient and much safer then the rooftops with spiral staircases, plus no elevators to wait on. Many attractions and restaurants within walking distance making the stay that much more relaxing,

It was an awesome experience! They property is very clean and well maintained. The condo was just as described. It was excellent & beautifully decorated. We had no problems whatsoever. The beds were comfortable for a good nights rest. There was plenty of sitting room in the living room area to gather. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai and looking at the beautiful scene of the lazy river. The private hot tub was ready to use when we arrived and was so relaxing. We even enjoyed the walk across the sky bridge to the beach. Julie and Robyn were very helpful and so nice to work with when making our reservations. Thank you Julie for an awesome vacation!! My family will definitely be back!

Clean and Fun at a Great Location
The property is located just next to Ft Walton with grocery stores and restaurants close. We prefer Destin a little more, but it's less than 10 minutes and you are there too. The condo was very nice, well furnished, plenty of room, and very, very clean. The amenities are all just outside your back door and the bay and beach just a short walk in either direction. The only thing I didn't give five stars on was the accuracy of the listing as it has pictures or a swim up bar and other amenities that are actually next door at The Island and which guests here are no longer able to access. But, other than that...5 stars all the way.

Perfect, beautiful condo!
