Condominium needs updating

The entire condo could use a fresh coat of paint and some minor renovations. Appears as though it was built in the 80’s and hasn’t been updated or painted ever since. Elevator was dirty, rusty and looked like it had bullet holes on the exterior doors.

Perfect Location, Great Beach, Average Condo

We enjoyed our first family beach vacation at Emerald Towers West and would return but likely not to the condo we rented. It was average at best. Personally, I like to cook a bit while on vacation and there was very little to work with and what was there was dated and old - a very common theme with this particular room. Back door sticks to the point where my wife chipped multiple nails. Balcony floor was stained. I knew this going in after talking with the property managers and things being dated wasn’t a concern of our prior but it was a bit more dated than we thought upon arrival (zenith tv in the bedroom which didn’t change channels and we couldnt get the tv in the living room to work either). On the other end of the equation, ETW was great. The facility is a little run down, but the beach access and accessibility is second to none and that’s what we were paying for. Pool was nice and clean each day and there are restaurants, putt putt and ice cream within 5 minutes of the place. Boardwalk, which was awesome, is 10 mins down the road. Would return to Emerald Towers West but likely not to that specific room until things were updated.

Perfect for a family

We had such an amazing time. The location is perfect and the beach staff was so kind. The unit was nothing fancy but worked for a family with young kids. Beds were comfy and clean. The only thing I would change is put a high top table and chairs on the balcony. That would make dinner and coffee out there so much more enjoyable.

Property is not well kept

Private owned ones were cheaper and nicer. Everything squeaked in this place. Front door, bathroom door, bunk beds everytime one of the kids rolled over. Master bedroom needed curtains as it faces the east and the rising sun is bright. View was great. It was clean just not well kept.

Great Quiet Getaway!

The unit was very clean and the view was absolutely amazing as soon as you walked in the room! Check in experience was simple and the app was helpful as well! The patio door was hard to open but didn’t disrupt our over all experience. Will definitely be returning to this condo!

Little Pricey but wonderful overall.

4 stars for being a little overpriced for the overall condo and the parking lot(!) mini pool - but had everything one can need and extra beddings, towels, dishes. Extremely clean and fresh. As pointed by a few travelers, DEFINITELY need a little table on the balcony! Would be nice. We did not use the free passes but nice to have for snorkeling and dolphin tour. Will stay again if I can book in advance for better cost.

Nice clean place would recommend just needs a few things.

I would have to agree with a few reviews about the bedroom Needs a shade darkening curtain. Table on the balcony would be great to eat and place drinks on instead of the balcony floor. A hand towel holder next to each sink would be convenient. I fix the toliet handle Pool in park lot awkward.

Ft. Walton Beach condo

My fried & I went for a girls trip July 14th - 18 and it was a wonderful stay. Condo is a little dated but we didn't stay in it much anyway. It had everything we needed. Comfortable bed and pillows. Very clean linens. Icemaker was great. The beach location was just perfect! We were so close to it. Only complaint I have is the fridge was stuck way out and we couldn't hardly open the kitchen drawers. We didn't know if we should try to push it back for fear of breaking the waterline. So we left it the way it was. Another issue was one day after being on the beach we returned to our condo & were shocked to find a man in there! Right away he identified himself as maintenance. We had not called for any maintenance so my friend and I were a little leary about him. He never showed us identification. He fixed the lock on the sliding door and then left. I called the management desk right away after he left to verify him & ask why we were not notified of him coming. Barbara was very understanding and she looked into it. She called me back promptly. It was ligit & they should of notified us but apparently he was finishing up a previous job. Hopefully in the future they will get into the habit of always notifying the customers when they are going to show up. Great stay overall, very pleased.

Balcony door

We were there for 2 weeks and the we reported right away that the balcony door would get stuck and could not be opened if you were on the balcony (my wife was suck out there twice). Four people came to look at the door, 2 maintenance men, the manager and a man from a glass door place. They all agreed there was a problem, but in the two weeks we were there the problem was not fixed.
