About this apartment rental

The Sea Shell Vacation Rental has been listed on VRBO for 21 years and hosts hundreds of guests every year. The reason for less current reviews on VRBO is we are also listed on other websites and book extremely quickly on those sites, leaving fewer vacant nights available to VRBO guests. But, please know the Sea Shell is very much open for business and has been for 21 years!!

I strive to provide the best stay at the best value for all my guests. Let me book a great stay for you! Take a moment to READ OUTSTANDING GUEST REVIEWS!! They say it all! We use to have almost 300 reviews, however VRBO just recently removed almost 200 older reviews from our site.

    This place is decorated beautifully, just as pictured. The owner was in contact from the day of booking and replied to any and all questions asked very fast! It had everything you’d need for your stay! Was just a two minute walk, if that, to the beach! Would definitely stay here again!

    Me, my husband and two children (ages 11 & 1) came to Ft Walton for the World Series. The Cottage was exactly like the pictures described. We felt so at home. I love that everything was labeled in the kitchen. You didn’t have to hunt the pots and pans down. The washer and dryer was a plus. Towels and bed linen were really clean. What I like most was that the Cottages there self weren’t big and no crazy parking like the others around us. The beach was a small walk on the side of building. They had chairs and umbrellas already set up with the cottage name on the back of chair. The owner was really nice and called to make sure we had everything we needed or any requests. She also gave us food recommendations to try. All in all I give this a 1000! We will definitely go back again.

    Nice play to stay with a great location to the beach. The owner was very prompt to resolve any issues. They need to add to the property description what floor the condo is on and that there is no elevator.
