  We enjoyed the sunshine and the amenities on the property. Everything was well maintained. The staff was always ready to help if needed. Unfortunately for us the drive from South Dakota to fort Walton is very exhausting as we are in our mid seventies.

  Allison M from BATON ROUGE, LA recommends this vacation rental

  Our family of 5 thorougly enjoyed our stay at Nautilus--our first time to stay in FWB! The location is perfect, the overall size of the building is just great since it never felt too crowded, even with one elevator out of operation during our stay. The staff was friendly and the texts to check in/out were so efficient and easy. We especially loved that we couldn't really hear any neighbors above/below/beside us, maybe due to the solid concrete build? Our unit was very spacious and well appointed with a beautiful view. The only small downside was the carpeted living room and bedrooms (just kind of strange for trapping beach sand) and floors left our crawling baby's knees visibly dirty after our first 20 minutes in the condo. But we found a mop inside and did a quick clean of the tiled floors even thoug they didn't look dirty to the naked eye (they had obviously cleaned, it could just have been in need of a deeper cleaning honestly.) We would return here for sure!

  Did not know what to expect. But we where blown away at the condo and location. The beach access and pool where awesome and staff was attentive to anything. We lived it so much that staying at condo all day was still a vacation. The money we saved going to a grocery store instead of eating out everyday was great.

  Carlene P from Shady Valley, Tennessee recommends this vacation rental

  We needed a late minute reservation in order to catch the week of perfect weather. We have stayed in many different places in Fort Walton and Destin over the years but it was our first time at the Nautilus.
  
  We were not disappointed. The condo was spacious and laid out well. Our adult granddaughter was with us and she had her private bedroom and bath at one end, and we had ours at the other end. The kichen was huge and very well appointed with utensils and cookware. All the appliances worked, many were new.
  
  The view was fantastic from the condo and beach access was just right outside. The heated pool was very nice. Everything had been recently updated outside.
  
  The staff was friendly, checkin couldnt have been easier.
  The condo was an excellent place to stay for the money.

  a guest from Upton, KY does not recommend this vacation rental.

  This unit is VERY needy. Old, outdated, needs almost everything in there replaced. The carpet is trash worthy. The ac unit froze up, maintenance came replaced the broken part, the unit froze up again the next 2 days. The patio furniture is junky, uncomfortable and worn out.
  I would be ashamed to own a property in such a picturesque setting and fail to maintain that unit.

  Deborah S from Hampton, Georgia recommends this vacation rental

  First visit at this particular condo, but this might just be the best one yet. Love the views. Sunrises from the balcony and sunset right out the front door. The pool is visible from the front walk but no pool noise can be heard around here. The views are amazing and we can hear the sound of the surf but not the traffic. A win win. A hidden gem from the hustle and bustle of Ft Walton and Destin.
