Professionally Designed Top-Floor Beachfront Condo

Everything was amazing as usual.

Nice view, spacious, handy location

Great place

Several thing wrong. The bed in front bedroom shook like it was falling apart. The tv in the bunk bed room was to low and the crate nailed under it was tacky. The kids had no place for their clothes. That little night stand wouldn’t hold their stuff. The rug in the living room is so nasty we rolled it up and put it in a closet until we left. And we couldn’t sit in the couch. You sit down and the cushions fell down through the front of couch. And it wasn’t homie.

Overall it was a wonderful stay with family! There were a few hiccups. We were notified that the washer would not be available during our stay. Power in the kitchen went out temporarily. Also the floors needed a good cleaning. However Dave, Larry, and the Southern Rentals team put in the extra effort to make things right with towel/linens service, a Parlour Donut gift card, Tervis cups, coozies, and an offer to have the condo cleaned a second time. The condo facility itself, including the pool and beach were maintained daily. We especially enjoyed the beach chairs and umbrella service included with the room. The washer ended up coming the day before we left, so we were able to do some laundry before heading home. All in all, it was a great week!

Great Location & View. Something’s need/should be updated.

The 6th floor views were beautiful and the Waters Edge property is very well maintained as a whole. We stayed for the month of February 2023 and was very disappointed in how the online pictures looked compared to the actual condo. The leather/vinyl sofa & loveseat are stained and soiled and the leather is peeling on the sides. The jutte rug in living room is badly stained and worn. The furniture is overpowering in this small space. The kitchen table is waaaaay too big for this condo and the dining chairs are extremely uncomfortable. We had to re-arrange the furniture in order for 3 of us to even sit at the table as there is absolutely NO room behind the loveseat as the pictures show. We had continual maintenance issues (master shower head fell off, both bathroom drains were badly clogged with hair, refrigerator was missing shelves to place food on, ceiling fan/light in queen bedroom continually blinked when you turned it on, washer made noises and often times would not finish out a cycle but would stop in the rinse cycle. After repeatedly pushing the start button it would eventually start up and complete the cycle. The sliding door from master bedroom would not open and the internet was very poor throughout our stay. It seemed like our stay was a continual parade of people coming into the apartment to fix things. The cable/internet people came out twice after we called management and they said that they couldn't do anything as it was not their router but a cheaper one that most likely needed to be replaced. It was never replaced during our stay. The only way you could get the wifi back up again was to unplug the router 2-3 times per day and it would then re-connect. Overall our stay was okay but we would not rent this unit again. The condo was clean and the floors were clean when we walked with socks on. Also, the main bridge that connects Fort Walton Beach to Okaloosa Island/Destin will be beginning bridge repairs (March 1st, 2023) which I was told by a local will last 3 years so it will be very inconvenient to go to Publix or Winn Dixie across the bridge. The closest place will be driving into Destin which is probably 4-5 miles from condo.

King bed needs a new mattress. The cleaning people did not do a good job at all. We got the early check-in and it wasn't clean. The property manager comped us for our problem. The kitchen light didn't work, so it was hard to see when trying to cook in the evenings.

I wish we were given more products to get through the week like soap, detergent and towels. Other than that, great.

Such a great place to stay at. Will be staying there again!
