Bayfront delight with pool, bay views & prime location - snowbird-friendly

Pirates Bay A402

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Watch the sun set slowly into the sea when you relax on your bayview balcony at this Fort Walton Beach condo. Let the daily grind slip away as you float in the shared pool or hit the beaches on Okaloosa Island.

Set in the Pirate's Bay complex, you'll be on the bay overlooking Santa Rosa Island and will have a small sandy beach. With easy access to local attractions, beach activities, and the Okaloosa boardwalk, you won't have to go far for sun-filled fun.

Stepping into the spacious studio, you'll be greeted by bay views flooding in from the sliding glass doors that lead to your private deck. Kick back on a chair, or lounge on the queen bed while you flip through the cable channels or watch a DVD on the HDTV.

Make a quick cocktail and head out on the deck to take in your sweeping bay views. Snap a few pictures and then connect to the WiFi to post them and show off your vacation. The shared washer/dryer will take care of the laundry while the central air-conditioning keeps you comfortable.

Fire up the charcoal BBQ in the common area to grill up fresh local seafood while you take in the views. If grilling isn't your thing, there is a kitchenette inside that features a two-burner range, refrigerator, and a microwave to heat up your tasty leftovers, plus small appliances including a coffeemaker and blender.

When it's time to turn in, this studio has room for up to four guests to enjoy the views. The soft queen bed will lull you into a restful night of sleep, while your guests will enjoy the plush sofa bed. With plenty of space for your belongings and even a toaster for a quick morning bite, you'll have everything you need for an amazing stay.

Wake up, grab a bite to eat, and hit the waves on a rented kayak of SUP. Paddle through the waters of Santa Rosa Sound as you explore the the local maritime environment.

Grab a spot on the warm sandy beaches on Okaloosa Island and enjoy the gentle waves crashing at your feet. Swing by the Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park to see the dolphins jump and the sting rays swim by. Then come home to float the day away in the community pool.

Whether you're catching a show at the Gulfarium, sitting on the sun-drenched beaches, or swimming in the pool, this Florida retreat has it all.

A Happy Little Place
Sweet little minimalist appt. Lovely view; sunsets from the balcony. Don't plan on cooking much: two burners and a microwave. Tiny sink. Look in every drawer to find utensils, corkscrew (bring a wine glass). No dining table, ok. There's just something about it that was perfect for my solo get away.

It was a nice place
A couple of things need to be addressed, that I would criticize is there are no lights around the pool, and that there needs to be some hooks and gets for hand towels, towels in the bathroom.

Great place for a short stay but>>>
Great place for a short stay. Decor is very dated however for the price it was good. Sofa bed is TERRIBLE.... would recommend for owners to replace it. Made a late night trip to the local Walmart for an Air Mattress it was so bad. Also would recommend for the owners to replace all there outlets. Very limited outlets that actually held your plug in. Would recommend some power strip in this day and age with everyone having phones to charge. Other than those few minor recommendations a really great place . Pool is really nice and relaxing when you don't want the sand. Location is very convient to the action and Very clean. Nice parking and great to have a fridge in the unit for cooler over flow.

Great place to stay, basically a 2 mile drive to all the good beaches and restaurants.
It was a great stay i would give 5 stars but the bed really should be replaced. And there were a few broken items when i showed up, like the sliding door handle, the shower curtain rod, and some trim work was peeling. But nothing to serious! I'm definitely coming back eventually! Customer service through vacasa was also amazing!

For an inexpensive weekend away
My husband and I were looking for an inexpensive weekend away so picked this condo near Fort Walton. It is ok for a short stay. The pool was great and we really enjoyed walking on the dock in the evenings. This is a quiet condo that is away from the traffic which is nice. For a short weekend we only really needed a frig and a coffee pot, which it has. If you are staying longer and want to cook this may not be the choice for you as with the small cook top it is not conducive to cooking meals. There are a lot of great restaurants near by and Santa Rosa is not far away and we highly recommend spending a day there as the beach is pristine there. The managers for this condo are very easy to work with as we encountered several issues with the condo while there during this short stay and they handled all the issues to our satisfaction.

Great place!
It was in a perfect spot, out of the busy destin traffic during but right on the water. Everything was clean, the shower rod was damaged but it wasn't a huge deal so we just enjoyed our trip! You won't regret staying here. We will be back!
