Beautiful 3 bedroom/3 bath beach condo.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful family vacation in this 3 bedroom/3 bath condo. The view of the ocean was perfect and it has very nice decor. The one area that could use improvement is the kitchen. It could use a deep cleaning. The bottom oven drawer had crumbs and some of the cabinets need to be wiped down on the inside. Many items in the cabinets had to be washed before using because they were dirty, some possibly because they weren’t used in a long time but others looked as though the dishwasher wasn’t run and dirty dishes were unloaded into the cabinets. Lastly, the pots and pans could really use an upgrade. They looked old and were mismatched and the fry pans were warped and didn’t sit on the stove flat. Also, needs a new knife set, they were mismatched and not sharp. We had to buy knives to use while there. Overall, the unit was clean and comfortable and very nice, the kitchen just needs a little extra attention. I would definitely stay here again.

Great family vacation location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great condo and amenities for our family. Unfortunate construction maintenance taking place during busy season was LOUD and we were on the 5th floor! I can’t imagine what the lower floors dealt with. They should do this on off season. Otherwise, stay was great.

Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect space for the entire family. It is hard to find three full bathrooms and a space to have two bunkbeds that aren't crammed into a tiny space. Each room is generous in size, with plenty of chairs for the dining area and the living room. The Islander is our favorite place to visit on Okaloosa Island with a large pool and quieter beach area.

Wonderful stay!

Our family had a wonderful stay at The Islander. Our accommodations were just what we needed with beautiful Gulf of Mexico views. The white sand beach was amazing and Ian, our beach attendant, was outstanding! Condo in low-key area, but close to restaurants, grocery store and more. Looking forward to coming back!

Springbreak

Beautiful place- everything was great. The unit air conditioning broken, warm inside. Hannah took the phone call and was extremely helpful and very professional. Ac company equally professional ! Unfortunately, we had a sick kid inside and felt a little awkward with having someone in the unit because it did take him all day to fix. I feel like someone should check during cleaning that all that is in working order. Especially since you check in so late on the first day. But honestly- Hannah was fantastic.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second year in This Excellent Condo on Okaloosa Island. The property is perfect for white sugar sand beach living with its gorgeous location on the Gulf. It is clean and we were so pleased with the upgrades made from last year. Thank you owners for the new couch - new dishwasher- new washing machine and many new pots and pans for cooking delightful Florida meals. Brooks and Shorey provide great service whenever we need anything. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a pleasant vacation experience.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 10th. Season spending quality time relaxing and rejuvenating down in FWB FL. We have enjoyed the last two years at excellent headquartersin the Islander 5003 very much. The property is clean and well maintained. We commend the owner for providing fine new washer and dishwasher and living room couch for convenience and comfort this winter. Brooks and Shorey have been very attentive to our needs while here Jan. Feb. And Mar. We have recommended them to other snowbirds for their great service. We are fortunate for restaurants close by like Stewbys fish house on Santa Rosa and German Wursthaus on Miracle Strip Pky. We love how close we are to First Baptist Church ⛪️ here worshiping with wonderful friends weekly. We are very happy here.

Great family place.

Overall, this is a great condo and will definitely return to it. It is very spacious for our family of 7, and plenty of beds. A couple of thoughts to better accommodate future guests, kitchen is not well stocked with utensils. Dishwasher needs updating. Found the coffee table had a broken leg when tried to move it to use sofa bed, and arm of dinning room chair is broken. Also, carpet in living room needed to be vacuumed.

UP UP Vacation

Beautiful condo, location perfect for reading books, listening to the waves, and the balcony cover keeps dry even in a storm. Be careful going from inside to balcony. The threshold is much taller than you expect. We got in a habit of laughing while saying "UP UP"! It's a toe stumping kind of threshold. It's main purpose is to keep the home sealed during storms/hurricanes. We put a red object in front of it to remind us to step high. It could use glow in the dark caution on it. UP UP is now a fun reminder of our great vacation!
