About this property
Pet friendly on the beach in uncrowded building
2nd floor 2BR/2BA Gulf front, common access balcony/walkway facing the beach, WiFi. This lovely two Bedroom condo with WiFi, directly on the beach, is located on Okaloosa Island, which is between Fort Walton Beach and Destin.
Sleeps 6; 6 guests allowed.
It is the best vacation destination for the family, golfer, shopper or fisherman. There are no high rises in sight, as nothing over 7 stories is allowed on Okaloosa. Because this building has a mere 24 units, and plenty of waterfront, the white beaches and the teal Gulf waters are never crowded, making it simply paradise! Many people say that these are the most beautiful beaches that they have ever seen. Television, surveys and magazines rate the Emerald Coast among the top ten in the world for its beautifully colored waters and sand as white as snow. Your can watch the dolphins jumping less than 100 yards away from the walkway balcony outside your front door! Need more units ask us about our others.

Loved the beautiful view and ease with which could get out to the beach. Very handy to have a Tom Thumb convenience store less than a block away. Beds were comfy and loved the reclining couch (looked brand new!) Kitchen well appointed. Wonderful restaurants close by. Not easy to keep our dog off the grassy areas at either end of the property (instructed we had to take dogs off premises for walks, etc). Unit and building not in the best condition, but priced accordingly.
The condo was better than expected! Pictures didn’t do it Justice.
Condo was clean and worked perfect for us!
Only thing I wish it had was a lil more stocked with a few lil things like a few spices Garbage bags salt n pepper. So when you went grocery shopping you didn’t literally have to buy everything!!!!!
Also have a griddle n crock pot!!
I had to bring mine from home
Other than that it was perfect!
While this property was dated, it was clean and had everything we needed including beach chairs and umbrella. The beach was awesome. Jackie with cleaning service was a pleasure to talk with.
This spot was just perfect for our family. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The Tom Thumb being right beside it is super handy. Okaloosa Island is our fave beach!
The condo unit grounds were very well kept, and the unit we were in was comfortable. The parking was perfect, so close to entry and elevator. The view from our second floor unit was beautiful and the beach entry was just off the very large pool area. To have a pet friendly unit with all of the amenities was such a pleasure, we will definitely be back.
Little gem of a place. Small building (4 stories, 24 units). Doesn't look like much, but the beach access can't be beat and there's a nice pool. Feels like a small community. Would be a perfect building for multiple families to share a fun getaway. Condo was nice: updated bathroom, well-stocked kitchen, clean, both bedrooms spacious enough for two people. Highly recommend.
Very nice, comfortable, and clean condo with superior views and several amenities. We experienced excellent communication with the host. This rental is so amazing you’ll want to stay longer than expected. Definitely recommend if you’re visiting the Destin, Fort Walton, or Okaloosa Island areas. Our week went by too quick!
Great Condo for families. Loved the location right on the beach and a pool it was AWESOME!
Loved the details provided. Left no questions unanswered. First vrbo experience and I couldn't have asked for a better one. The condo was exactly as described and gave us a perfect location to spend quality family time together.

enjoyed it very much.
Our only two problems were, they gave us the wrong code to get in the Condo and they did'nt leave any instructions on the TV. Other than those two things our stay was great.
The online pics were not very accurate. This is an older unit and needs some TLC badly, it should have things fixed before renting again, Jackie was awesome and the manager addressed our complaints in a timely manner, I would not stay in this unit again but had no problem with the overall property
Property is in a great location and clean. Several things were broken or loose. Response time was not good if you had to contact them although Jackie was better and easy to get along with. One night there were no parking and we sat in the truck for over an hour and a half with no response from anyone after extended time on the phone with VRBO finally was told just block someone in and leave a note. Fortunately meet someone who let us park behind them. This has been a totally different experience from the many other VRBO rentals we have had. Will not rent from Sky Ventures ever again. Love Destin but there are better places to stay and easier people to deal with.
This property had roaches! We found them in the first night and immediately contacted the property manager. Although he did get back with us and try to workout a solution, it did not change the fact that we were stuck in this room with roaches. We were not offered a refund for our stay or a move to another unit. As a matter of fact, he told us to leave! Where were we supposed to go on Thanksgiving week with no transportation and our family staying in same complex??? This is unacceptable! But this wasn’t the only problem! The HVAC unit was also not operational ! I will never rent from this property or management group again! VRBO association needs to be made aware and it’s a shame they don’t somehow make this right for us.

Fixer-upper at prime beach front rates
Pros:
- beachfront, takes minutes to get down to the ocean
- good view, we saw plenty of dolphins and fish
- the beach itself was very nice and was not overcrowded
- unit oversees the pool, convenient for those with children
- several grocery stores nearby
Cons:
- the interior was very outdated, imagine the set of The Golden Girls that had not been updated since the early 80s. Old/outdated is not a problem as long as things are still well taken care of. However this unit included peeling off popcorn ceiling, black moldy rings around ceiling fan and light fixture, caulking around the master tub/shower was solid black, peeling off old wallpaper in the bathroom, several old ceiling tiles with old water stains.
- the kitchen lacked several basic items like a can opener that properly works, kitchen scissors would have been useful, and all the knives must have went through the garbage disposal a few times.
- there was no good place to let beach towels and bathing suits dry, the unit doesn't have a washer/dryer, and the balcony is only a narrow walkway where you're not allowed to hang up anything to dry, nor can you store beach chairs/toys/umbrellas outside
- for those with an EV vehicle the nearest super charger is 40+min away, nearby less powerful destination chargers were sparse and most were broken

Just ok
A lot of our complaints are from things we knew about the property going in. Have to carry your dogs while in elevator and off property across the street to use the bathroom. Was a lot of strain, especially for my elderly mother but the worst was said grass was full of cockleburs that got in our dogs pad hairs and was painful. Every time we had to hold them down to pull them out. It’s like they are dog friendly but not really dog friendly. Most people got around the elevator rule by walking their dogs down the stairs. Our dogs aren’t that good with stairs cause we tried. Our dogs are our babies, otherwise we wouldn’t bring them on vacation with us. It would be so much easier to kennel them.
The furniture is old and dated. Mattresses luckily have padding to make better. We knew going in that there was no private balcony but it is sad without it. No where to store wet chairs. Have to just bring in the condo. Crab crackers would be a great thing to include in the condo. Great steamer market up the road and nothing to eat crab legs with. Knew going in no washer and dryer in unit, brought enough clothes to wear the whole time. Didn’t know it would be so hard to wash and dry towels and sheets before leaving. That’s ridiculous. It’s also ridiculous that there is no cable or local tv in this unit. Just offers Netflix and apps open. I can understand if the owner doesn’t want to also pay for cable but an antenna to pick up local tv wouldn’t cost much. What if there was bad weather or something else that we needed the news for. Not to mention old women do not like to miss their stories. My mom was pissed. The shower door in master is off the rail on bottom, needs to be fixed. They both have removable shower heads which is great for cleansing shower afterwards. However the one in spare bathroom is old and cheap and needs updating. The parking lot is small and with so many people double parking, it made finding a spot and getting in and out pretty difficult. The views were great. It is a quick walk to the beach. Unfortunately we had nasty seaweed all but one day but that can’t be helped. The weather was great! The pool was nice and with the ocean being so nasty a lot of people were taking advantage of it. Overall we will not be back
We had a great view of the ocean - just steps away from the sand! The condo was well equipped with everything we needed and was beautifully decorated. It was a quiet building and everyone was welcoming to us and our dogs. We had a great time and will recommend this place to our friends and family.
