Spring break ‘25

Property was very clean and well stocked with towels, kitchen gear, and beach supplies. We loved the backyard and took daily walks around the neighborhood. House is very close to Publix, great restaurants, souvenirs, and Beasley Park for the beautiful beach. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great place to stay!

We stayed here from June 23-June 28 2024. The house was so cozy and had everything my family needed for our stay. The beds were very comfortable and the backyard was plenty big for our Yorkie and my autistic toddler to burn off energy. The beach and activities were only minutes away and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would definitely stay here again! Recommend 10 out of 10.

Visiting New Grandbaby

This is a beautifully kept home. Pet friendly, our dog loved the big fenced in back yard. The check in process was simple and the lock was easy to use. Had everything we need for a 3-week stay. The owner was easy to communicate with and extremely responsive. Of note she moved our stay up a week when our grandchild was born 5 weeks early. I would recommend to anyone, and we will look to return.

Vacation Vibes

The house was beautiful! There were enough rooms for all of a family of four and family of three. The bunk beds were perfect for the girls. The backyard was big and the deck was nice for eating dinner outside. The neighborhood was quiet and the location of the house was close to coffee, grocery shopping and the beach. The host even had beach supplies we could use while we were there.

FWB Getaway

My family & I were all pleasantly delighted with the house. It was recently renovated, very clean & comfortably furnished. It had plenty of room for us to spread out, each doing our own thing but we could also easily come together for a meal. The location was perfect for all the activities we had planned for the week, ie. beaches, airport, A.F. Base, stores & restaurants. Thank you for the opportunity to stay there. We’d be happy to come back.

Ft. Walton Beach

The two sofas become a running joke with the four of us. When you sit on them you constantly slide forward and need to reposition continuously. The washing machine made terrible noises, so much so the that last thing we did before we locked the door was start the washer so we wouldn't have to listen to it. The drier did a poor job. There was no drain stopper for the kitchen sink and no light over the sink. We are all seniors and cooked several meals at the property and dd a lot of dishes that we did not load into the dish washer. The house was clean and bright and the beds were the best we have ever had at a Vrbo. The kitchen was well supplied with pots and pans and dishes. I sharpened a couple of the knives in the block.
