It’s all about the view at this comfy, coastal sixth-floor condo, right in the heart of the action on Okaloosa Island. Step outside your front door and find yourself at the beach, right across the highway. Your reservation includes beach service of two chairs and one umbrella. Shopping, restaurants, amusement parks, and Okaloosa Pier are all within a short walk.

At home, step out your balcony and take in a gorgeous bay view, with the pool and lazy river just below. Enjoy the sea breeze with your morning coffee, then step inside to make some breakfast when you get hungry. The open floor plan features cheerful coastal decor and flows seamlessly from the living room to dining area and well-equipped kitchen, where you’ll find a full suite of stainless steel appliances and all the cookware you need to whip up a feast. Grab a quick snack at the breakfast bar or sit down for a full meal at the adjacent dining table before heading down to the beach or pool.

When you return, relax in the central air-conditioning while the washer/dryer takes care of any laundry from the day. Watch TV on any of four sets or use the free WiFi to post beach pics to your social media. End the night in any of the well-appointed bedrooms, where you can drift off dreaming of your first - and next - perfect Destin day.

Beautiful Condo

We had a great time. The condo & resort were beautiful. The only downfall was that it wasn't on the beach, as I assumed. You have to use a walkway that crosses over a busy street. But it was nice to have the Boardwalk nearby for quick bites to eat & to hop on the bus for day trips to Destin. All in all, it was very nice.

Nice condo. Has a few small issues. Vacasa staff was the biggest issue. They were unwilling to help us with anything.

Awsome Resort, Great Location

I loved the location and the amenities. Having access to both the bay side and Gulf side via bridge over the main road was great. It made for a easy and safe walk over to the board walk. There was also a boat rental place next to the property.

Great views!

We had a great time at this condo. It was decorated with a beach vibe in a very tasteful manner. The condo had all the necessities for cooking and dining in. It was home away from home, but with better views. We didn't try to walk to the beach. It didn't seem to be easy access and we have little ones and lots of gear... The view of the lazy river and bay was my favorite. I would recommend this unit!
