Great location and view

We were pleased with the condo. It was very clean and furnishings were comfortable . We enjoyed the deck and of course the view. The elevators and walkway to the beach were easy access. Also enjoyed the location to bars and restaurants and all the neat little places. Would highly recommend and stay again.

Great condo!

Very clean condo. Great location, very quiet and comfortable. Awesome balcony to sit on and watch the waves or eat. We had one problem with the shower head, we texted Vacasa and they had the shower head changed in an hour. Would definitely stay here again!

Very clean and quiet

Island Echos is a very quiet and clean. The view of the gulf each morning was perfect. And the cabana boys that set up chairs and umbrellas were very kind and helpful. Love that chairs and umbrella were provided since we flew in for the week. We would recommend to others amd plan to return.

Great view but condo needed some TLC

Great view from balcony, but condo needed some updating. Bed (frame and mattress) was terrible. Condo looked clean on the surface, but floors needed to be mopped desperately. The location and proximity to beach are the best parts of this condo.

Great Stay

We loved our stay at the island echoes 5P. The only reason I gave it 4 stars. Is because the bedroom mattress is extremely hard and not comfortable. When you sleep in the bed you and your loved one slide directly to the middle where there is a large dip in the mattress causing us to slip in it and stay there. The headboard also continuously smacked the wall every time you moved. We needed to use our own batteries for the living room dvd player because the other ones were old and did not work. Altogether had a wonderful time with fantastic views. It would have been a plus if there were full size lounge chairs on the porch, that would have made it extra great! We will be back!

February week on the beach

Wonderful condo, beautiful view from the balcony (5th floor) to watch dolphins and pelicans pass by. Clean with most of the comforts. There are no extra blankets so bring some if visiting in the winter months. Had trouble getting in the first day, the door combination did not work so needed to call the help line and ultimately get someone to come to the condo and find a combination that would work. The staff was helpful and friendly. Wonderful kitchen, prepared fresh fish every evening (from Stewby's just down the road). Downstairs laundry facilities were great to have available and the pool looked nice but the air temperature was not warm enough to swim. We would stay at this condo again.

Property Okoloosa Island

Furniture very uncomfortable!! Couch looked 40-50 yrs old, hide a bed broken, the one queen bed was very uncomfortable, mold in bathroom very old stained tub, cracked tea pitcher and was brought one on our next to last day stay and it was a canister storage instead of for liquid for tea. No extra blankets. No tv guide. Could not even get into our room with the code they gave us tried another they gave us still could not then finally the manager gave us her code and we got in. Took us about an hour to finally get in our uncomfortable condo that needs some many updates and replacements!!! 😡😥Only good thing we had an ocean view.
