About this rental
The exterior of the condo complex has recently been painted and looks awesome! The interior has been tastefully refurbished. This condo has sleeping accommodations for up to 6 guests with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The living room is a great gathering place which includes 2 sofas (1 is a new pullout sleeper) and a large wall mounted 55" flat screen TV. The condo is located on the 3rd floor, center of the complex, overlooking the large pool, directly BEACHFRONT.
The condo is well maintained and decorated in a beachy theme (colors/ furniture/décor). We own the condo with another family, and make sure it is always in immaculate condition and have all the linens, utensils and accessories necessary. The condo is located on Okaloosa Island/Ft.
Walton Beach, a community that has beautiful white sandy beaches and is far less crowded than Destin, yet just a short ride to all the restaurants, family activities and night life.
The condo has 2 large windows and a sliding glass door on the beach side giving a spectacular oceanfront view from the living room, kitchen, and dining area. The condo has a large balcony to observe the pool activities and watch the waves of the Gulf.
We rent through a management company. After we have agreed on date and price, you will be forwarded to the management company for payment. If during your stay there are any problems or concerns with the condo, the management company can address those concerns in a expedient manner.

About the host: I live in Louisville, Ky. My family bought this condo with another family that we traveled with for many years. We would vacation and always seem to end up in the Fort Walton/Destin area. We decided since we go down to that area so frequently, we bought the condo together. Since we love it so much here, we thought we would give others the opportunity to rent our condo when we are not using it.
That's how you have the opportunity to rent our Vacation Paradise.
Why this property? We bought this property because it seemed so family friendly. The pool and beach are not crowded. There are no high rise condos on the Island. Buildings on Okaloosa Island have a limit of 7 floors, limiting the number of people.
No wait for the elevator!
Plenty of parking!
No 2nd row of chairs on the beach!

Everything I needed with a beautiful view
My daughters and friend went on this special trip for my birthday . It was a beautiful condo and the location was quite and safe. I sat on the balcony and drank my coffee and listened to the water. Can't wait to go back. Owner was very helpful and the rental company was so helpful because my daughter left her jewelry case and they mailed it to her.

Loved this place. Loved the beach decor. right on the ocean balcony with view of pool and ocean. Unit was right off elevator and the pool was so close and the beach just a few steps away. Great for families as i took my daughter and grand baby. Beach was beautiful and staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely tell my friends and family about this place.

Sisters Trip
Love it! Everyone was very nice, friendly staff, great view of ocean and saw dolphins from our balcony. We will definitely rent this condo again. Short walk to beautiful white sand to beach chairs and umbrella. Love that it was off the main area of congestion of traffic.

Awesome place to stay, roomy, quiet close to the beach
This is a great place to stay. The roof top pool was a big hit to our grandchildren. The condo was close to restaurants, grocery stores, boardwalk. Brookes & Shorey office staff was amazing, willing to help, would respond promptly. I Believe most of all was the room, and having a huge living room. We will be back again.

We appreciate your wonderful comments but have to take exception to the roof top pool. That is not located at our Islander Beach condo. We have a large beachfront pool area. Thanks

Thanks! We appreciate your staying with us and hope you return soon. One of the reasons we bought on Okoloosa Island was the beach. You are not overcrowded and don’t have to look around another beach chair to see the water!! Glad you enjoyed your stay
Loved the condo!
We stayed here for almost 2 weeks. The condo was perfect for our family. The interior was beautiful and clean. The location cant be beat. The pool was large and the perfect temperature. I would definitely stay here again!

Nice Stay
My family stayed for 5 days and 4 nights. The condo was beautiful and the view was awesome. The drawbacks were the maid service. We were only given 2 garbage bags and when I requested additional bags, I was told that they didn’t have any on their carts. I requested a blanket and didn’t get it until I asked for it again the following day. On the day of check out, the maid rudely told my 13 year old son to “get out” when she saw him standing outside the condo with our stuff. She then lied to the property manager like we told her we were staying an additional day when she never spoke to us and I NEVER even saw this lady. This prompted emails and phone calls to assure that we checked out. Other than this issue, everything was great and we will surely visit again.

I am glad that you found the condo to be beautiful, the view awesome, and you will visit our condo again. I am sorry for the confusion with the housekeeping staff and assure you this will be addressed. I am again sorry as this is not typical for our housekeeping services staff.

We loved the condo. Had a wonderful time and the place was everything we expected it to be and more. We did not have the card necessary to rent the movies so I was forced to watch bikinis and beautiful sand, dolphins and water. I am cool with that especially the bikini part. But now that 70 year old couple in thongs is not for me. Very clean.

I am glad you had a wonderful time and the condo exceeded your expectations as I know you are a frequent visitor to the Gulf! I will check on the card and see why it was not available to you! I’m glad you enjoyed most of the scenery and hope you return soon
