Island Princess 200

We were very pleased and satisfied with our condo. Real joy was responsive to our requests, including purcha coffee pot for our convenience rather than having to use a keurig. The place was in good order!

The company was very responsive-we had questions and they answered timely. We had a couple things that needed attention-they came the next day. The place was furnished well. We were very satisfied with the place and the friendliness of the community.

Our three bedroom condo fit the 7 of us so well. The bunk room offered kids individual beds. The kitchen was well stocked (be aware there are no spices or oils, so bring your own if you want to cook). There were plenty of linens. Being in an end unit was also nice. The beach and pool were Amazing. We loved it! Parking was easy. Access to restaurants was easy. I loved this location.

Great location and wonderful condo I can't say there was anything I did not like other than the bunk room was hot. It doesn't seem to cool as well as the rest of the condo.

- Posted: 9/9/2024

Already booked my next trip. Awesome experience.

- Posted: 9/9/2024

The home was beautifully decorated, clean, well stocked, perfect location, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. I will book here again next year There was nothing I didn't like.

This condo was exactly what it said it would be! Location was perfect, views were amazing. The bunk room was awesome for the kids we brought, ages 14-18. The walk to the beach was short. This was our first time in Florida and we will for sure be back and would stay in this condo again. The beach was laid back and great for families.

The place was nice and clean. We had everything we needed. Very spacious and loved having the bunk room to fit the kids in. We were also all the way at the end of the hall in our own little area. Would definitely book this place again. 10/10 recommend.

This room is absolutely beautiful. We loved every minute of our trip. The only thing I want to let the owner know is that in the front room with the bunkbeds, there is water that was coming up through the floor. All my kids stuff got soaked, if they left anything on the floor. It was worse when it rained. My husband said there is probably a leak somewhere in that room. Just wanted to let them know before it gets worse. Other than that, our stay was wonderful. We love island princess and go every year for spring break. The kitchen had everything that we needed. Thanks for an awesome vacation condo :)

The only complaint was all the codes you had to have to get into everything.

- Posted: 9/12/2023

Place was awesome. We will definitely use them again.

- Posted: 9/12/2023

Only reason for the 4 star rating was that the water was turned off due to plumbing repairs to the entire building. Listing states iron was available, but was not working. Other than things mentioned, this is an excellent family beachfront rental.

- Posted: 8/13/2023

Great vacation stay! Condo was perfect. Close to great restaurants and shopping. Really didn’t want to leave.

- Posted: 7/18/2023

The management staff was quick and very understanding with text messages. The condo is a great size for the family. The property is nicely decorated and very clean. Everything we needed was provided. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. Access to the beach and pool was convenient. Upside not mentioned is the little gated area by the front door that was a great place to store the wagon, paddle board, skim board, and beach toys. There were not any spices/salt/pepper so make sure you buy or bring your own. We had a great time and would highly recommend the condo to friends and family.

Real Joy staff

We enjoyed our stay in the unit, but were disappointed on our arrival to find the dishes in the dishwasher were not clean and we found some cups in the cabinets were not clean. there were a few mechanical issues which were reported and eventually fixed. We had to request that the floors be cleaned, which was taken care of by the cleaning crew on the day we requested. There was an issue with water leaking on the floor every time we opened the door to the freezer side of the fridge. This was not addressed during our stay. We noticed that there is a problem with the icemaker being able to dispense ice but we did not report this. This should be looked at though so it's not a problem for future renters. All in all we enjoyed our stay and will use Island Princess in our future stays in Fort Walton.

Jack, Thank you for the 5-star review. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the unit being improperly cleaned before your arrival. We appreciate you giving us the chance to clean and send maintenance out to fix the other issues. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Real Joy staff

Very spacious. Loved the master having the door to the balcony and each door having their own bathroom. We also enjoyed the complimentary beach chairs. We did wish that the condo itself had a kiddy pool and maybe a second or larger hot tub because it was always full but we did go on a busy weekend. Kid friendly unit. There’s a pack and play in the master closet. Twin bedroom doesn’t have a smart tv but does have cable and DVD player- so if you have little ones who need certain shows to sleep bring your own fire stick or such.

- Posted: 5/30/2022

Kait, Thank you for letting us know about your stay at Island Princess. We're glad you enjoyed the balcony in this kid friendly unit. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Real Joy staff

Great location. Loved the view. Two problems. In one room the blinds couldn’t keep out the security light so we had to hang towels over window to sleep and that really didn’t work. Second I had asked that they not let anyone into the condo to fix washer and they let them come anyway. Felt like privacy was invaded. We didn’t need washer so had no need to have it fixed. Would have preferred no strangers in while we were there. But all in all very clean. Mostly comfortable. Sleeps eight but doesn’t have gave enough seating in living space for all to be comfortable. Kitchen well outfitted. We were able to cook without to much trouble.

- Posted: 4/24/2022

Heather, Thank you for the 5-star review. We apologize for the blinds not blocking out the security light. We will speak with the owner to see if they'd like to replace them. We're sorry that you felt your privacy was invaded by maintenance when they came to fix the washer. Our records indicate that you left a voicemail asking us to send someone out to check on it. We're glad you were comfortable and the location was great. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Real Joy staff

Condo was nice and had everything we needed. My only dislike was having to go thru a few gates with codes and thru the pool area to get to the beach access. It would be great if you had kids along with you though. Property was secure. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay!

Enjoyed our stay immensely, kitchen well stocked with lots of pantry space for snacks, loved the layout of the condo and easy access to the beach. Could have used a couple more chairs on the balcony, but we worked around that. Would rent this condo again.

The condo is the ideal location and size. Our only issue was with finding the unit inside the complex. It's tucked away behind a gate, which is perfect for privacy but would have been a nice detail to have when we were given the code for the door. The three bedrooms and three baths make it perfect for a large group. The mattresses are comfortable and the shower in the master bath has amazing pressure! We will definitely book the place again!
