For nearly a century, Okaloosa Island has been a beloved beach destination, and it continues to charm families today. Its pristine white sands and sparkling emerald waters are just as breathtaking as they were a hundred years ago when visitors would row across Santa Rosa Sound from town to reach the beach. Nowadays, you can stay directly on the island, enjoying its vibrant selection of restaurants and lively nightlife.
Just beyond Brooks Bridge lies the city of Fort Walton Beach, a treasure trove of activities. Stroll through the quaint downtown district, explore the Indian Temple Mound—a historic Native American site and museum of artifacts—or embark on the Downtown Historical Walking Tour. This self-guided adventure starts with a brochure from the Chamber of Commerce.
Fort Walton Beach is also home to Eglin Air Force Base, one of the largest in the world, and the fascinating Air Force Armament Museum. A short scenic drive, just seven miles along the Gulf Islands National Seashore, takes you to Destin. There, you’ll discover even more options for shopping, dining, and nightlife.

A guest from Louisville, KY US recommends this vacation rental.
Room was clean and up to date. Close to everything. Price was reasonable.
Only minor problem was regulating the hot and cold water in the shower.

Thank you so much for staying with us at Tropical Isle. We will work on getting the water regulated. Hope you can visit with us again. Sugar Sands Vacation Rentals

Tabatha M. from Ripley, TN United States recommends this vacation rental.
This was the best week ever! The weather was perfect all week. The condo was perfect for just me and my son. The room was clean, the bed slept comfortably. The location is perfect with a convenient store right next door. Doesn't get much better than that! The staff at Sugar Sands Rentals are all very pleasant and helpful. Beverly always goes out of her way to make sure that her customers are taken care of.

Tabatha M. from Ripley, TN United States recommends this vacation rental.
We always enjoy our stays at Tropical Isle. Small and quaint yet has everything that you need. No fighting over pool chairs, no large crowds, etc. We have always felt safe while staying at Tropical Isle. The Tom Thumb store right next door is a wonderful addition. We have been coming/going to Tropical Isle for SEVERAL years and sometimes twice a year, and we cannot wait to get back there. Sugar Sands Vacation Rentals are super nice to work with and will make your stay as enjoyable as they possibly can.

A guest from Liverpool, NY US recommends this vacation rental.
Studio was just how described. Didn't realize it came with a murphy bed. Never slept in one but it was quite comfortable. Very quiet older neighborhood and steps to the beach. Staff and housekeeping went above and beyond as to drive me to a restaurant and went to pick up sundries I forgot at Publix.
There really isn't much amenities within walking distance. Which was perfect for me. However, if you wish to do a bit of exploring, eating out and seeing the sights, highly recommend a rental unless you want to spend money on Uber.
With my previous experiences with vacation rental by owner sites, my family found leftovers from previous renters. Such things as beach towels, water toys. Most importantly condiments,spices etc. And even on occasion a bottle of vodka on the freezer! However, with covid, the place was wiped clean. So those of you who plan on doing any cooking or snacking, be prepared to go shopping. Also, there were no beach towels which I bought from the convince store.

We agree that this is a great location and studio close to the beach. We are so glad that it worked for you. Please visit with us again in the future. Thanks again for choosing us. Sugar Sands Vacation Rentals

A guest from La Harpe, IL United States recommends this vacation rental.
Overall place was great, had unit for two weeks. Things I'd like changed/updated - THAT couch has got to go!! Rolling bar cart would be great for food prep area (very little counter area) Floor lamp would be nice addition. Where I live at night it is DARK so pole light in parking lot shining thru blinds was bothersome so bought black sheet to cover window so maybe some kind of shade that could be drawn. Shower could use LOT more pressure. Things I like - SO CLOSE TO BEACH!! Murphy bed was comfortable and by having it really opened up floor space. Well within walking distance to some great places to eat. Had an issue with heat first night so management sent space heaters right away. Other guests were friendly. Unit is on ground floor and beach side so really quiet at night. All in all a great place to spend time out of wintery Illinois. I'll be back!

***Heather S. from United States recommends this vacation rental.
This little condo was absolutely what I was looking for on my week-long beach solo getaway! Just a couple minutes from the water, I could walk in for a snack or refresh my drink, not worry about leaving my things on the beach. There are so many things to do in the area - I had a blast! Property was very clean and quiet while I was there; a mixture of couples and small families during my stay. It was never noisy at night. I'd go again!
Cute, clean place just steps from beach!

***Sarah S. from United States recommends this vacation rental.
Loved this quiet, clean studio where I could walk right across the street to the beach. WiFi was good so I could easily work as well. Small gas station/convenience store next door and lots of places to eat within just a few miles.
The fees made the place more expensive than first shown on AirBNB but still worth it.

A guest from Mars Hill, NC US recommends this vacation rental.
Great Location! Steps from the beach. Great having a convenience store beside the parking lot. I have been coming to this area for years and this is by far been my favorite rental due to location and convenience. Perfect 1st floor so I can store my fishing tackle without having to go thru elevators, parking decks, etc. Also nice to have vehicle within in sight (right at your door) in case you need something. Very pleased with this place, and I look forward to coming back!!
