# **Relaxing Beachfront Escape | Beach Service Included | Sleeps 6 | Pool & Direct Beach Access**

Leave your worries behind and settle into the easy rhythm of beach life in this welcoming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom beachfront condo. Offering comfortable accommodations for up to six guests, this inviting retreat is the perfect place to enjoy sun-filled days, breathtaking sunsets, and quality time with family and friends.

One of the best parts of your stay is the included **beach service from March 1 through October 31**. Each day, beach attendants will set up **two beach chairs and one umbrella** just for you, so all you have to do is grab your towel and enjoy the sugar-white sand. If your group needs more seating, additional chairs and umbrellas are available to rent.

Inside, the condo features a bright, comfortable interior with tile flooring throughout, creating a clean and easy-to-maintain space that's perfect for beach vacations. Thoughtful updates over the years have helped create a welcoming atmosphere where you can truly relax after a day by the water.

The kitchen is equipped with everything you need for vacation dining, including both a standard drip coffee maker and a Keurig, along with the basic essentials for preparing meals, snacks, or your favorite morning brew before heading out to the beach.

The living room offers a comfortable place for everyone to gather, featuring a sleeper sofa, a 52-inch TV, and a DVD player for family movie nights or relaxing evenings together after a day in the sun.

The primary bedroom provides a peaceful retreat with a king-size bed, ceiling fan, a 45-inch TV, and a DVD player. The attached private bathroom includes a full bathtub, perfect for soaking after a day of walking the shoreline.

The guest bedroom is equally inviting with a queen-size bed, ceiling fan, a 40-inch TV, and a DVD player, while the nearby second full bathroom also features a bathtub for added convenience.

During your stay, you may also find a selection of books and board games provided by the owner, adding a little extra entertainment for rainy afternoons or quiet evenings together. Available items may vary from stay to stay.

Beyond the condo, you'll enjoy access to outstanding community amenities, including a sparkling swimming pool, tennis and pickleball courts (with equipment available at the front desk), and a private boardwalk that leads directly to the beach. Two on-site laundry rooms are available for guest use (fee applies), and towel exchange is offered on designated days for even more convenience.

Whether you're relaxing under your reserved beach umbrella, taking a refreshing swim in the pool, or simply enjoying time together after another beautiful day on the Gulf, this comfortable beachfront condo offers the perfect setting for a memorable vacation.

**Reserve your stay today and discover how relaxing life can be when the beach is just steps from your door!**

Good location, small apartment.

The listing pictures are a little deceiving because the apartment is really tiny and a very small kitchen. We were hoping for more space. The other annoying thing is the distance from the elevator, there is only one in the middle of the building. Also the designated smoking area was just outside the main exit door which is not pleasant to always have to walk by, especially if you have kids. On the other hand the apartment was clean and the location convenient. I would probably not go back to this property considering the cost per night and the inconveniences here listed.

Wonderful place to spend your vacation!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about the condo including the beach access and chair set up. Staff was great, building well cared for and clean. The condo itself is nicely decorated, great layout and great view of the gulf. Looked recently freshened up with paint, beds comfortable, kitchen has just about any thing you need for cooking. Only negative I had were the bathrooms, they need to be updated. At very least the caulk/grout in tubs should be replaced. Mold is inevitable in that environment but its an easy update. It wasn't a show stopper because the place really was very clean, great location, lots of restaurants to choose from (we recommend LuLus and Rockin Tacos (just over in Fort Walton) for eats. Sit on the balcony enjoy a beverage and listen to the waves. We'd stay here again.

Great beaches, family friendly atmosphere. The only thing that would keep us from renting this particular condo again was that the beds were very uncomfortable. I would recommend purchasing new mattress for 505.

Nice property

It's a nicely kept property, more information in advance on checkin and checkout procedures would have been helpful, but otherwise we had a pleasant stay. Be sure to bring toiletries and household products as very little was provided, so we had to go purchase all these things within the first two days. It's also worth noting the pin on the map is not where this property is located - it's a few blocks further west, so if you're trying to coordinate with another family rental, keep this in mind.
