The view has to rank up with the best on Okaloosa Island. It's on the second floor with no pool between the patio and the water. Fantastic view!!!! . .The room, not so much. It's old and warn, but very clean. Nice clean floors.If you want to stay in a perfect modern place with all the amenities, go somewhere else. I did get a kick out of the 2 bars of soap they provided. They were wrapped slivers of soap. I've never seen such small bars of soap - half the size of soap in a hotel. . . .The TV is a smart TV but is way too small. I had to sit in the kitchen chair rather than the couch because I couldn't see it from the couch. The stove was old and beat up, refrig was great. Microwave appeared to be on it's last legs. The bed was comfortable for me - one person. I could clearly hear the people on the floor above me walk around.. . . .The place is fine for 2 people, but not 3 because it is too small. . . . The building appears old with stanchions holding up the walkways in front of the rooms. . .When the bathroom toilet needed to be fixed they immediately came out and fixed it - very responsive. . .And the view is Wonderful.

The condo was perfect. No complaints, except the pool is advertised as heated and it definitely wasn’t. Great location. Steps to the beach and Real Joy was available to answer all of our questions.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
We were not informed that the balcony leading to our room had 4x4 and jacks under them to keep them up. Their appeared to be some sort of support failure for the top 2 floors balconies and walkways that led to the entry of our condo. Second, while we dont go on vacation to stay in a condo for entirety of the trip, we were dissapointed in the room only due to its needing for being updated some. The oven had rust bubbling through, the kitchen ceiling fan would shake back and forth as if it was very unstable, the master bedroom wall outlet on the far right side next to the bed was also loose and shook when plugging in our chargers, and the fold out bed under the couch was not working properly. The "head" of that bed would just fall towards the ground and it was a little tough for our kids to get comfortable on. I dont mean for this to sound super negative. We had plenty of room, everything worked like it was supposed to and was very clean. We just felt that there could be some upgrades to room 206 to make it better. We did enjoy our stay.
