Check it out - vrbo #1939710 ) **This condo is sanitized and disinfected** Located on Okaloosa Island, this third level unit is on the top floor of a quiet complex that sits directly on the beautiful white sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico. This beautiful beach is our backyard! You just can’t get any closer to the beach! As a smaller condominium complex with 27 units, the beach is much less crowded and we have our own private boardwalk. The unobstructed view of the sparkling emerald waters and the beach from our living room and balcony is spectacular! The brilliant colors of the sunrise and sunsets are captivating. The moonlit nights also display their own glistening beauty across the waters. The spacious living room with two sets of sliding glass doors that open to the balcony overlooking the beach includes a nice comfortable queen size sleeper sofa. The kitchen is fully equipped with new appliances and many extras for those choosing to eat in, and the dining area seats four. There is a washer/dryer in the unit for your convenience. The bedroom has a very comfortable king size bed with a new top notch Sealy mattress set, and a private half bath. The full bath is beautifully updated and located off of the hall. We have nice linens and towels, and our housekeeping service will have our non smoking condo clean and prepared especially for you! There is a reserved parking place for our guest, as well as self check in/keyless entry for your convenience. Our outdoor pool is equipped with bathrooms, lounge chairs, a grilling area, and picnic tables, located in front of our condo. The back of our condo faces the beach, and from the balcony is the gorgeous beach view. The beach service we provide for our guest includes 2 chairs and 1 umbrella, set up daily from Mar 1 through Oct 31. We have two beach chairs in the bedroom closet for our guest as well. Kayak/paddle board rentals are also available during this time. Please remember to bring your own beach towels! *Our condo is a non smoking property. Smoking is not allowed inside the unit or on the balcony* Due to our outdoor stair entrance into the condo, we are not wheelchair accessible. Beach life fun is all around us! Okaloosa Island has everything you need for a relaxing fun filled vacation. Dolphin shows at the Gulfarium, a walk on the boardwalk, or fishing off the pier are five minutes away. Golf, mini golf, water sports, parasailing, jet ski rental, dolphin cruises, etc., are all close by. Outlet shops at Silver Sands are just a short drive, and antique shops in downtown Fort Walton are there for leisure shopping. We are away from the traffic and crowds of busy Destin, but only 6 miles from all the activity Destin has to offer as well. Many delicious local seafood and steak restaurants are available. Visit emeraldcoastfl .com for more information on upcoming events, beach fun activities, restaurants, etc., in the area.

This is our second time staying at this property and we WILL be back! The condo is equipped with everything we needed for a week of rest and relaxation! The space was clean and accurately portrayed on the website. The view is gorgeous and the location is perfect - quiet and quaint but just a short drive to Destin for more "touristy" options. The hosts were so kind and easy to communicate with. We can't wait to return!

I have visited the Destin/Ft.Walton area for 40 years. This condo is by far the best ! The unit was very clean, decorated in a most inviting atmosphere, the location is perfect. It is a quiet and peaceful setting and the view of the ocean is spectacular. A short walk to the beach, very convenient. Working with the owners was seamless, very responsive. We will return yearly!!

This condo was beautiful, well decorated and very clean. The kitchen was very well stocked and has everything you could possibly need. The little extras the owners provided was a welcome surprise. The bed was very comfortable. Gorgeous views from the balcony. It’s a perfect spot for your morning coffee. Another great perk is the beach service. It’s nice have 2 chairs and an umbrella everyday. The owners are wonderful! They checked on us to make sure we arrived safely and got checked in and to have a safe trip home. Communication with Valerie was easy and she responded quickly. We will definitely stay here again and will recommend this place to everyone we know. We can’t say enough nice things about this condo and the owners. Thank you Victor and Valerie for sharing your beautiful place with us. Looking forward to coming back!

We are looking forward to completion of improvements to Island Sands which will make the entire complex better.
The unit is clean, nicely decorated, and has features and supplies we would not expect. My favorites were the multi-charger, the shower squeegee, and the folding stepstool.
Even being “boarded in” due to construction, we could still easily get to the beach to walk and view the sunrise/sunset. Once the decks are completed - WOW! Happy days are coming and the sky will be the limit.

Island Sands’ perfect location at the quite end of the island was just what the Good Lord ordered - rest, relaxation, recharge. Valerie and Victor are as prompt, kind and gracious hosts you’ll ever meet.

We found this property online and it was a no-brainer. It’s gorgeous, and when the doors are open, you can hear the waves at all times in every room. The accommodations are the best I’ve had anywhere else (there are extra blankets and pillows!!! One of my biggest pet peeves is places don’t have enough pillows and blankets) The place is so beachy without losing the comfort of a home. It’s so clean. It’s small without being isolated.
Now, the owners are one-in-a-million. They checked on us to make sure we got check-in procedures, that we got there safely, and to tell us to have a safe trip home. Something we will cherish forever, is a personal gift they had made for us in honor of being on our honeymoon with a heartfelt card.

Our stay was exactly how it was listed. I property owners I felt went over & beyond with communication prior to the stay & after. The rental was very clean & had a homey feel.
The views are spot on, a huge plus was the beach umbrellas & chairs were included. This was nice not having to setup an umbrella daily. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for the hospitality .

My boyfriend and I stayed here in sept. My parents and family friends also stayed in the same condominium but didn’t rooms and ours was by far the most updated and nice! We throughly enjoyed our stay. Location is far enough away to keep from the big touristy areas but close drive to restaurants, town, and Destin. Highly recommend!

This condo was so clean and neat - all the little touches for their guests was so thoughtful- everything you need is there- having the beach chair service included was wonderful-loved the deck looking out at the gulf every morning and seeing dolphins swim by was an added bonus - hope to go here again !!

I couldn't be more please with our stay with this condo. With a beautiful beach front view, getting to the water was so easy. The owners messaged us several times to be sure we were taken care of, and ultimately this condo was comfortable, clean, and modern. I would love to stay here again!

Fun First Family Vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo! The condo was well stocked, very clean, and the perfect size for our family of four. We also enjoyed this area - away from the crowds of Destin, but within a good distance of nice restaurants and stores. We would love to return in the future!
