About this apartment rental
GULF-FRONT LUXURY AT BELLA RIVA
This spacious Gulf-front residence at Bella Riva delivers a true beachfront experience with expansive views, refined interior finishes, and one of the largest private balconies on Okaloosa Island. Designed for both comfort and functionality, this four-bedroom condo offers over 2,100 square feet of living space, making it ideal for families and groups traveling together.
From the moment you enter, the open-concept layout draws your attention straight to the water. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors fill the space with natural light and provide uninterrupted views of the Gulf, creating a seamless connection between the interior and the beachfront setting.
THE BALCONY EXPERIENCE
The standout feature of this property is the oversized Gulf-front balcony, measuring approximately 10 by 32 feet. This outdoor space functions as an extension of the living area, offering ample room for both dining and lounging.
It is the perfect setting to start your morning with coffee or unwind in the evening with a drink while listening to the waves. The elevated vantage point allows for frequent dolphin sightings and uninterrupted sunset views, making it a central part of the overall experience.
BEACH SERVICE INCLUDED (March 1 – October 31)
Your stay includes daily beach service, providing:
Two chairs
One umbrella
One folding table
One hour per day of kayak or paddleboard use
(Private storage closet available within parking garage)
Everything is set up for you, allowing for a seamless transition from the condo to the beach.
LIVING AND DINING
The main living area is designed for both relaxation and gathering. The layout provides clear sightlines to the Gulf from the kitchen, dining, and living spaces, ensuring that no one feels disconnected from the view.
High ceilings, travertine flooring, and well-coordinated furnishings create a clean, upscale environment that feels both open and comfortable.
KITCHEN
The kitchen is built to support real use, not just appearance. Outfitted with high-end Viking appliances, granite countertops, and a large central island, it offers both functionality and space for multiple people to cook and gather at the same time.
It is fully stocked with cookware, utensils, and serving pieces, making it well-suited for extended stays or group meals.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Condo is well furnished, clean, and has a great view. Pool was not open due to remodeling but the host communicated that with us in advance. With the exterior remodeling there were fewer people staying at this property resulting in fewer people on the beach, which was nice. We have stayed here before and even when booked to capacity, there is plenty of room on the beach.

Fantastic property and location. The unit is beautiful and spacious. Hosts were very responsive.

We've been vacationing on Okaloosa island for 30+ years. The Bella Riva is our favorite place we've stayed. We rebooked the same condo in 2022 knowing we'd be returning with our 6 month old son. This year we traveled with 5 adults and a baby. The condo is large enough that everyone has there own space. My crying baby didn't wake up any of my family members. The master bathroom is spectacular, and that shower is a great way to end the day after being on the beach. The kitchen is perfect for cooking large family meals. The ice machine is a game changer. The pool is the perfect compliment to a day on the beach. It was a great vacation and we can't wait to be back in 2025.
My only complaint would be that both queen beds need to be replaced. They are not very comfortable (could hear and feel the springs) and the bed was so loud when moving around it did wake the baby sleeping in the same room a few times.
