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: The condo was nice and loved the location it was convenient to go to the beach. Only thing I did not like was the front door did not lock from the inside so kids could open the door and try to go out. The staff for check in was nice. The person working the tents and chairs for the beach was very rude. Overall loved our stay.

This property was extremely clean and was a great place to stay! We will stay here again if we come back to this area. The only issue we ran into is it is a 2 bathroom property but one bathroom has a shower and the other has a bathtub with a shower head but there is no way to actually use the bathtub as a shower. That made it really 1.5 bath as my kids are too old for baths. Other than that the stay was perfect!! Thank you!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was a good fit for our family which included our four month old grand son (and all of his baby equipment his parents can't live without). Easy unloading from the car, easy beach access and lots of extra space in the master bedroom. The kitchen utensils were lacking, but we were able to make a full breakfast each morning. Also, no beach equipment, including no beach towels. I don't even mind bringing my own, but didn't know I needed to. The unit is a bit dated, but this was not an issue for us. I really appreciate the ability to pay a small extra fee for a late check out. This adds almost a whole extra beach day to our stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in another unit (different owner) at surf dweller and had a wonderful experience, so I was very disappointed with this condo. The condo was as described, but there is an apparent roach infestation. We had to clean everything once we arrived, including the tops of the drawers and cabinet doors due to the amount of roach feces. I do believe the owners are aware, because of the roach spray we found in the laundry area. The condo needs a good deep clean for sure. Also, the sink randomly backs up in the kitchen and it is nasty water. The shower in the second bathroom does not drain well. This condo is very nice, but the cleanliness and obvious roach issue need to be addressed

We stayed at this property last year and loved it. You can’t beat the value of the unit + 30 second walk to the beach from the first floor. It accommodates our needs perfectly as we have two under 3 and under, along with my brother-in-law with special needs. In this aspect, the property is honestly a 10/10. However there were some major pit falls with this visit. The first being safety, while the sliding doors to the beach had high locks away from the kiddos, the front door didn’t have anything. This resulted in my 19 month old being able to open the door (absolutely terrifying) but he thankfully only made one step out the door before we were able to swoop him in. The second was the other guests. We had endless trash being dumped on our patio, from yogurt, to sunflower seeds, beer caps, BEER (they literally poured out their old beverages over the railing), and so on and so forth. This caused a lot of clean up on our end and we still struggled with ants that’s to a bunch of crushed grapes that littered the patio the first day. On top of that, some wildly disappointing behavior occurring such as screaming obscenities and throwing a beer bottle in the dunes (which happen to be under a replenishment project). This area is our happy place, it was gross it see it be treated this way. Obviously, some things are uncontrollable, but this was a much different experience from last year and mildly disappointing. That’s not to say we won’t be back - hoping for adjustments!

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: This ground floor 2bed, 2bath condo had a great layout that perfectly suited our family’s needs. The second bedroom had 2 full beds so my teen boys each had a bed to themselves. All the beds were very comfy. The living room furniture was quite dated but it was comfortable. The ground floor meant we could store our ocean toys, canopy, towels, etc on the back patio. And from the patio there is a walkway to the boardwalk. No elevators to deal with! We also appreciated the washer and dryer in our unit.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! I would like to point out a couple of things that happened during our stay, that we did not cause. None of these were issues upon arrival.1. The air vent in the kitchen is hanging. We woke up on our 3rd day there and it was like that. We tried to fix it but it would not stay.2. One of the bar stools is not very sturdy.3. The washing machine seems to not be level. We tried to wash some towels and would never agitate right.4. We noticed the first night once we unloaded groceries, there were little roaches in the kitchen. We saw a few more throughout the stay.Thank you for your time. We enjoyed our stay and plan to return.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I'm a traveling nurse assigned to work at Ft Walton Medical Center. I found this place by so called luck as there literally was no place as everything was booked due to influx of snowbirds and hurricane michael refugees so much so I almost cancelled my assignment. I feel that Alicia Hollis realty took advantage charging an extortiously high rent during the off season(It was freezing and rainy) Dec-Feb. What's worse they refused to work with me when I asked to make weekly payments as this was financially less overwhelming for me. They said it would be more if they did it that way but found out later they could have but just chose not to. The condo was very basic..but was the only liveable one they had the others looked like half way houses and they were expensive! I would NEVER work in FL ever again and if I did I'd NEVER stay here again!

Reviewer Comments: Unit was very clean and cozy. This unit had excellent access to the beach. I have no complaints other than to say that the neighbors above us threw their garbage and spit chewing gum down onto the patio of my rental which has no bearing on the unit or realtor at all.

Big spacious condo but beds are rough, AC cut off when washer and dryer where running, top rack of dishwasher was broke and the lights on the back patio did not work. Also, the chairs and umbrella that are in the photo are available if it comes with the room or if you pay $30 a day! I thought it was available for all surf dweller rentals. They did have everything available for kitchen needs and bed needs. First floor has nice big patio but beach view is blocked by sand dune. Fixing some of the errors can make this place returnable but for myself and my family...probably not.

Reviewer Comments: We usually stay at motel 6 but they were booked so we looked else where. We ALL regret it! This place was not worth the money at all! The beds were hard as a rock and VERY uncomfortable the lights outside wouldn't work, the wifi didn't work, the air conditioner kept cutting off (it was 100 degrees outside) and the pans they supplied weren't good at all. I do not like complaining, but when we paid a lot for 4 nights and 5 days you expect more then what we got! I really hope they upgrade because this was a rip off!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit was very spacious, clean and well maintained. The price was very affordable. The ground floor patio was very large and allowed access to the "walk over" with out having to go around the front of the building. The only problem we had was the patio was being refinished the 2nd day and we could not use it for 48 hrs!! Huge bummer, however after talking to the manager they did give us an acceptable amount of refund. My advice is to check with the rental company and ask if the property will be under any renovations while you are there. We did not even think that would be a possibility....but it was. So ask!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was a lot bigger that it appears on the pictures. The location is great for families with kids. Having the property on the 1st floor, and the big patio was a great hit with the kids.Unfortunately, the maintenance crew was all over the building during our stay. We understand that it is needed for the building, and we appreciate that it is done, but they should consider scheduling maintenance during off season. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and we were extremely pleased with Alicia J. Hollis. The property management company is very professional and truly cares about customer service.
