The Island Resort at Fort Walton Beach
Room had a musty smell. Wet and dirty towels on the floor in the hall. Half eaten food left on a table next to the elevator. The whole place had an overall smell and nasty atmosphere. We left and stayed somewhere else.

Room could have been cleaned better but otherwise it was a perfect location and easy beach access 😎 check in staff was very friendly. It was confusing once we got down on the beach and not knowing what umbrella and chairs was desenated to us. Pool was beautiful and made it very relaxing
