Okaloosa Island Beach Getaway Nestled Between Destin Harbor & Downtown Ft Walton

Get ready for GOOD TIMES AND TAN LINES! Our relaxing 1 bedroom ISLAND OASIS is prefect for a couple or small family. Tropical Isle Condominiums, Unit 110 - Only steps away from the white powdery sands of Okaloosa Island Beach or the swimming pool (non-heated), this first floor, well decorated and furnished unit is designed for ease and comfort. The bedroom has a king size bed, smart tv, full dresser, bedside table and ocean facing window to enjoy the ocean sounds and air. The bathroom is in the bedroom and has a full bath/shower combo and vanity cabinets for storage. The fully equipped kitchen should meet most any needs with a variety of appliances to include a dish washer, full size stove, microwave, and refrigerator as well as cookware and bakeware, toaster, water kettle, George Forman grill and crockpot. For your morning cup, we have a Keurig Duo (bring your favorite K-cups or brew a whole pot with ground coffee). The long counter doubles as an eating and gathering space with 4 bar stools. The kitchen is open the living room where you can relax with an additional smart tv, sleeper sofa (Queen), two comfortable chairs, a small dining set with 2 chairs and a large window to let in some of the Florida sunshine. Take a break under the covered back patio with seating for two and listen to the ocean. Our unit has a front and back door for convenience but the keypad entrance is at the front door (roadside). Card operated laundry facility on site (bring your detergent, etc.). Located on beautiful Okaloosa Island, you can take advantage of sunrises and sunsets from the boardwalk or take a stroll across the street through the bayside neighborhoods and discover your favorite spots to watch the sunset. On the island, there is plenty to discover and enjoy including fishing or nature watching from the Okaloosa Island pier, many parks and public beach accesses, hidden bayside nooks, delicious brunch spots, shopping and restaurants, mini golf, ice cream and bike rentals. (* Some of these offerings are dependent on the season you visit.) Our favorite island eateries are Old Bay Steamer, Crab Trap, Stewby’s and Fubar (sports bar with outdoor bayside seating-sometimes the bar and outdoor seating area get lively and upbeat after dark but offers a peaceful waterfront lunch opportunity). If you want to venture off the island, you are only a couple minutes from either Destin or downtown Fort Walton Beach. Convenient to Publix and tons of eateries. On the Fort Walton side, our favorite thing to do is rent Bird scooters and ride around downtown Fort Walton where you can take visit multiple bayside parks, casual restaurants or fancier French, Italian or American local restaurants with sea or land options. We love Bay Cafe, Ali’s Bistro, Magnolia Grill, Sealand and Clemenza’s. If you go in the direction of Destin, the closest of our favorites are Maguire’s Irish Pub, Boshamps, Brotula’s, Louisiana Lagniappe, Dewey Destin’s (we prefer the bayside location over harbor side for the super casual, outdoor, waterfront atmosphere- and watching the heron roost).

Perfect for quick getaway
I was in town for a volleyball tournament, so I was only really looking for a place to shower and sleep as I'd be away most of the time. It's PERFECT for 2-3 people. Bed was VERY comfortable,,, owner provided TONS of towels and the entire unit was very clean. Highly recommend!

Great choice
Perfect for 2 people. Great quiet location with easy access in and out. Easy access to beach. Nice to have a convenience store right next door. Clean. Only issue is communication between vrbo and owner. Didn't get check in code in advance. Vrbo firmed 3 pm check but wasnt til.4 so sat in car for an hour. However definitely would book again. Enjoyed our stay

This unit is located mid-Santa Rosa Blvd. C store was convenient next door. Otherwise car was essential. Nice walking sidewalk across the street and beach access was next to condo building behind. Unit had very well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed, good tv choices including apps, and easy to control heat / AC. Would return.

The owner was nice and helpful. The property was spacious, clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. We would’ve like a code to get in the back door facing the beach. We highly recommend this VRBO.
