  Mandy A from Indianapolis , Indiana recommends this vacation rental

  This was our second stay at Nautilus Condos, the staff are always friendly and accommodating. The property itself is kept clean and is appealing. Our condo had been updated fairly recently, nice furnishings and a beautiful view. I love how quiet it is, plenty of room at the pool, and the free beach service is awesome! The condo itself could use a good deep cleaning and the cleaning staff could definitely use a little more attention to details. The only things I can complain about were the washer/dryer in our condo was out, even though we were notified of it and was given use of the cleaning staffs facility, it was still a hassle. Overall, it was a good stay at a good condo.

  • Manager Responded on 7/6/2020

    Mandy, thank you for taking the time to review unit 1503. So sorry about the dryer issue--it has been really hard to get repair folks out quickly. We usually do our deep cleans in the fall and this year due to the renovation they were put off---then we shut down due to COVID. We are engaging with our cleaning company regarding standards, and will be scheduling the deep cleans in the fall! We hope to see you again next year! Cheryl, GM

  The changes in Fort Walton and Dustin are amazing. Children activities are everywhere. The beaches are fantastic and full of different activities. Condo living and rentals are far as you can see. The food is fantastic with many different choices. There are multi bu grocery stores including Walmart. Personally we perfected to stay in Fort Walton over Dustin because the traffic was more tolerable. We are Seniors and traveled with our two middle age daughters. We had a great time and plan to return with the rest of the family including the grand kids. FIVE STARS for everything.

  First time to Emerald Coast and will be going back for sure. Our rental(condo) was great, everything you needed was there. Very quiet, people very friendly, respectful and helpful. The grounds were very clean. Went to the Gulfarium Adventure Park, the Oct. Seafood Festival @ the boardwalk, and took a dolphin cruise. We had a great relaxing trip and would recommend the Nautilus (Emerald Coast) to friends & family. A great place to loose yourself and regain your sanity!

  The Nautilus is at an excellent location right on the beach. The staff is fantastic. The office staff was very helpful and the beach service was the best.
  We stayed a week and hated to leave. The unit was clean, spacious, and well furnished.
  We only went out one night, choosing to spend more time at the beach and take advantage of the kitchen. We used the grill area a couple of nights and the kitchen other nights. The ice maker was very nice.
  We will be back!!!
  The only negative was the north elevator, it is the most popular and not very fast.
