Convenient and Clean Place to Stay
The unit was very clean. When booking I did not understand that all the bedrooms were upstairs. I thought it was just a loft unit. The loft stairs are very very tight. Children will love it. It was not bad for adults just a hard climb in a spiral staircase for older women. There is also a futon couch in the loft. We did not take suitcases up those stairs. We took our pillows. The beds were comfortable in all rooms. Instructions for check in/out were very clear and concise and frequent. We were a group of 7 women ranging in age from 50-79 YO, attending a conference at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. It was very very close to this facility which is why we chose it. We did not go to the beach while we were there. There is a garage however it is very tight for two cars and so is the driveway. We got 4 mid size to large SUV type vehicles parked there but it was tight! Also the entrance is on the back side of the unit not the front side facing the road. It was quiet and we were not bothered by anyone. The upstairs closet in the queen room was huge and served as a staging area for our suite cases and clothes and we used it as a dressing room. The area felt safe. We were there the last weekend of April 2024.

Home away from home
The property was great. Quick, easy walk from the beach and all the amenities were more than enough to make our whole family comfortable for the week. Sounds trivial, but the water heater was much appreciated. We are a family of 6 who all needed showers after a day of swimming, and the fact that the showers stayed warm enough for each person to take a shower was amazing! The location is perfect for those who do not want to be in the middle of the busy Destin strip but still close to those attractions. We appreciated that the Okaloosa beach was not as crowded as Destin's but did not sacrifice any of the beauty. Although we did noy need any help, the hosts were very attentive and checked in via text several times. I have no doubt they would have been quick to action if we had needed assistance. We would definitely stay at this location again!

Excellent Resort Atmosphere
We love the resort atmosphere and hope to return for another wonderful stay. The Fudpuckers Bar and snacks at the pools is nice and makes good drinks. There is a great restaurant across the street about one block towards the main highway. This is a very easy drive from Opelika and very close to the Destin FL fishing charters. We did the Silver Lining private fishing trip with Captain Joe and had a great time catching red snapper with my son Nick.
