my First time booking with RealJoy Vacations but not my first time in Ft .Walton . The Condos were nice we were facing the pool and lazy river, and due to the hurricane had the lazy river( why I booked there) mostly to myself. Just a walk to the beach and a short drive to Destin. Had a problem with the lock box, getting in code wasn't working. But RealJoy responded quickly and sent someone and he arrived when promised. Enjoyed our stay. Will book again.

June Vacation Osprey 505
This is a very nice condo in a great resort. There was a lot of space to accommodate 6 adults and 2 kids. It wasn’t too crowded in any of the pools. and the time we had to wait more than a couple of minutes for an elevator was on Saturday morning when a lot of others were checking out as well. That wasn’t even too long of a wait considering one of the elevators wasn’t working.
- Posted: 6/29/2024
Kayla, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're delighted to hear that the condo provided ample space for your group and that the amenities, such as the pools, met your expectations. While the elevator wait during peak checkout time was understandable, we're glad it didn't significantly impact your stay. We hope you'll join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Great condo! It accommodated our group of 7 comfortably. It could use some hooks anywhere in the master bath, but not a big deal. We really appreciated the extra beach chairs and wagon to use. The RealJoy staff was very proactive in making sure we had everything we needed. Destin west resort is fantastic. We loved the lazy river and the convenience of having the crossover to the beach!

Relaxing and beautiful!!
Our unit was roomy, clean, and had beautiful views! The staff works to keep the resort clean. The only complaint was the neighbors playing loud music and smoking so we’d smell it. It wasn’t crowded in May, but if it were, it may have been more tight quarters on elevators, pools, etc. But it was roomy in May!

Dawn, Thank you for the 5-star review! We're glad you enjoyed the spacious unit and the beautiful views. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the noisy neighbors and the smoke. We hope you'll join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean and perfect for what we needed. We had a little incident with the smoke detector battery chirping but they resolved it quickly! The only negative thing is that I had reached out asking if there was any beach equipment to which they replied no, but upon arrival there was a beach wagon, some chairs and beach toys in the front room closet. I wish I would have known that before purchasing my own. Otherwise, we had a great stay and would go there again!

Sarah, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your time at the condo and that any issues were promptly resolved.

We're glad you had a great stay overall and hope to welcome you back soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy!

We enjoyed our stay at Osprey 505. It seemed to have everything we needed. I think the furnishings/decor could use a little updating, but overall it was great.

Great place to stay, clean, inviting and pretty much everything you needed readily available --beautiful views from balcony--easy walk to the beach. The grandchildren, 6 and 8, thoroughly enjoyed the pools! We did set the dishwasher up to run as we left, and forgot to turn it on--my apologies! The only negative I can say is, the balcony furniture will need to be replaced soon--I spent all stay picking up the woven pieces that kept breaking off the chairs, and the patio chair pads also are in need of replacing, as they have flattened out. Otherwise it was a great stay--if only the weather had cooperated a little more! Thank you to the owner for making this beautiful place available!!

Ann, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. It sounds like your family had a wonderful time enjoying the views, beach, and pools! We appreciate your feedback on the balcony furniture and we will be sure to discuss it with the owner. We're glad the home met your needs and that you felt well-accommodated. We look forward to welcoming you back, hopefully with better weather next time! Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

I highly recommend this place. Only negative is the pull out couch is terrible but they did have a queen size air mattress so it made up for it. And the dishwasher isn’t great but oh well. Also they don’t give you access to the gym but all the other condos go in (air b&b rentals) so just follow someone in the gym door you’ll be fine
