About this property

Sea Shell at Sunset Cottages - Book Now for Spring & Summer 2024!

The Sea Shell Vacation Rental has been listed on VRBO for 19 years and hosts hundreds of guests every year.

Nice play to stay with a great location to the beach. The owner was very prompt to resolve any issues. They need to add to the property description what floor the condo is on and that there is no elevator.

I have been coming to Florida's Emerald Coast since I was a child (50+ yrs) and I truly believe these are the most beautiful beaches in the USA!! The emerald clear water, sugar white sand, amazing attractions, and beach bathing make it the perfect vacation spot for my family and hopefully yours!!

Why they chose this property

Since October 2004 I have owned a piece of this paradise, the Sea Shell. From the moment I bought the Sea Shell my goal was to make it the best vacation destination in Fort Walton Beach on Okaloosa Island. I constantly strive to provide outstanding guest service and the best vacation home. I want you to come back time and time again. Since October 2004 I have had the privilege of providing an outstanding vacation destination to thousands of guests. Just read our many, many outstanding reviews, they speak for themselves!
