The Island Resort at Fort Walton Beach
The room itself was fine, however we had to call to get the heat/AC and TV fixed Also had to request sufficient towels. The grotto pool was closed for repairs 😣. Didn't appreciate the resort fee or parking fee. Other than that everything was fine. Right on the beach!
