Spring Break April 2025

We loved our stay at the Island Princess. It was a fantastic location right on the beach. The beach was absolutely beautiful. The condo was clean. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of space for our family of four with room to spare. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and everything you need to cook. The best amenities were the large beach towels Helen had at the condo and the beach toys and water toys that were in the patio area. The wrap around porch provided amazing views. There is a grocery store right down the street. My family will be coming back to this condo!

From Houston to Ft. Walton!

We stayed at this condo for a week in June and had a great time! There were 8 of us and we had plenty of room and the location was great. Helen was quick to respond every time I had a question. She even ordered a beach wagon for us to use. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed since we cooked most nights. Close to the end of our trip the water main broke so we were without water for several hours. Helen offered to have some water delivered to us. The location was perfect—close enough to Destin but less crowded. Being directly on the beach was a must and this condo didn’t disappoint. We would definitely stay here again if we go back to Ft. Walton!

This was one of the best stays we've had in the last 5 years. Host was very responsive and helpful. Location was perfect for a family. We stayed with the children (6, 4, 1.5) and they had so much available for the kids to do and use. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Wonderful and Relaxing!

Great condo with a massive view of the beach. Fifth floor and a gorgeous balcony. Everything was in working order and kept up. Beautiful master and beautiful master bath. The beach has fine white sand and was perfect for walking and sunning. The pool and hot tub were great for getting out of the breeze and or warming up. The hot tub was out of commission for a day and the Water was added back into it but the jets weren’t functioning. That was fine though as most nights it’s worked normally. We walked to the Pier which had a bar and restaurants and corn hole and volleyball. Stewby’s was in walking distance also and had yummy fish. The condo had beach towels so we wish we hadn’t brought them and the condo had games but we didn’t find them til we were packing to leave. We had many nights of playing cards and sitting on the balcony listening to the waves. Beds were comfortable. Living room furniture was comfortable. Kitchen is open concept and pretty well equipped. Was great to be able to run a load of laundry. The furniture on the balcony needs felt pads so the chairs aren’t so loud and hard to move but that’s my only criticism, as we truly LOVED this condo and the beachfront access and the beach itself. Such a restful restorative week. Owner very easy to communicate with and accessible. Thank you Helen!!!

The unit was OK; however the property is being renovated which caused some problems. One day, access to the pool and beach was blocked off by workmen. The fumes from the paint and sealer on 2nd floor parking area were overwhelming.

Great stay!

This property was as described and the manager was fantastic about answering questions! It was located on the fifth floor, which made for great views of the ocean when we were sitting on the balcony! Condo is on the beach so it was a short walk (down to the elevator, past the pool, down the little walkway and we were there). The property was clean and well furnished. We had 4 adults, 3 kids ages 16 to 20, and one 7 year old. The included beach service was great! We ended up getting another 2 chairs and umbrella to go with the set included. The beach service was fantastic. We asked to be put on the front row and we were automatically put there every day. We didn’t have to get up early and go pick out our chairs! We cooked in the condo on 2 nights then ate out on the others. We usually had breakfast and lunch in the condo. Our favorite places to eat were The Shack and Stewby’s! We tried Rockin’ Tacos but found other places we liked better so we won’t be going back. We usually go to Destin on Thursday night to eat at Tailfins and watch the fireworks which we did again this year! Overall, a great experience! I would definitely recommend staying here!

Summer family getaway.

This is a yearly family getaway that my Mother in love started in about 1990. She is no longer with us but the trips continue on with our own families. I love making new memories with our grown boys and my grands. The condo was a great fit for us all and was easy access on and off the beach having a elevator right at our door. It was decorated beautifully and had all things necessary to spend the week. We will be back to make more memories in the future.

Very Nice Condo, great job Helen and Stan!

We loved our condo for the family group we had this trip. Everything was clean, good condition, and no mechanical issues except for the dryer wasn't drying the loads. Owner was prompt in getting maintenance to clean the dryer vent to improve the airflow. The amount of dishes, flatware, small appliances, etc... was excellent. Plenty of things to go a few days before needing to run the dishwasher. Most condo's don't provide this many in my experience. Very nice surprise! The property overall was good, but a few things we didn't like. First, the elevator closest to our unit did not work a couple days, and so our trips to the beach were arduous with either steps or walking to the other end of the building for the elevator. Getting a beach wagon to the beach was a challenge, as there are 2 gates at the pool with codes to get thru, plus 2 sets of stairs on the boardwalk to the beach. This means you have to lift your wagon and carry it up the steps, then down to get to the beach. Would be nice to have a ramp for this. Beach chairs were available with the condo, however the attendant 'Brady' charged my son $75 to 'reserve' the set for the week. Again, the owner Helen resolved this issue promptly with us and refunded our $75. Parking was good, and plenty of spots and was never 100% full. The area is less busy than the core of Destin, which made it nicer for traveling in the area. Great job Helen and Stan
