Overview

Dive into the coastal vibes and endless sunshine of Fort Walton Beach and make yourself at home here at Palms 401! Boasting nautical decor, a seamlessly open concept living, dining, and kitchen area, and a private balcony to soak up the salty air, there will be no delay in slipping into vacation mode. When dreamy days heat up, slip into your favorite bathing suit and make your way to the shared pool for a day of lounging with a good book in hand. If sandy toes are more your speed, the beach sits mere steps away, and you'll enjoy complimentary beach service during season with two chairs and an umbrella set up and ready for you. Returning to home base each night will be a treat too as a tasty meal cooks in the full kitchen and a favorite show or ballgame plays on the TV.

Okaloosa Island is where it's at when it comes to coastal fun. Though you'll have beach access right at your fingertips, head into the main drag of the island and check out the local restaurants, shops, Okaloosa Island Fishing Pier, Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park, or Wild Willy's Adventure Zone for full days of adventure for the whole family to enjoy. Not to mention, a day spent in Fort Walton Beach proper or a drive down the coast is always a great idea!

Guests under the minimum age must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
- The number of guests may not exceed the number listed in your reservation or the maximum posted occupancy.
- The renter is responsible for the actions of all guests and for making sure everyone follows these rules.
- Stays are temporary only, and the property may not be used as a permanent residence.

Property Rules

- Quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. Please be respectful of neighbors, follow all parking rules, and lock doors and windows when you’re away.
- No smoking of any kind is allowed anywhere on the property, including porches, decks, and outdoor areas.
- No pets are allowed unless authorized in your reservation. Bona fide service animals are permitted as required by law. Emotional support animals are not permitted unless authorized as pets. A no-pet policy does not guarantee that animals have never been in the property or that it is free of pet allergens.
- No parties, events, commercial photography or filming, or tents or other structures are allowed without Avari’s written permission, and additional fees may apply. Charcoal grills are not allowed.
- No illegal activity is allowed on the property or its internet service, including unlawful downloads.

Fees and Charges

Subject to the booking channel’s terms, you authorize Avari to collect the following through the booking channel or the payment method on your reservation, where applicable:

- any damage or loss during your stay,
- up to $1,000 for pet policy violations, including extra or different pets than authorized,
- up to $500 in additional cleaning (or the actual cost, if greater) for rule violations or excessive mess,
- any fines from police, government agencies, utilities, or HOAs, plus related damages, and
- a late departure fee of up to one night’s rental if you don’t check out on time.

Rule violations may result in termination of your stay and removal from the property without a refund.

Property Conditions

- Please report any maintenance, housekeeping, or safety issue to Avari right away and allow reasonable time for us to fix it. We may enter the property with reasonable notice, or immediately in an emergency.
- The property is provided as is. Shared amenities such as pools, hot tubs, parking areas, and fitness centers are outside Avari’s control.
- Properties may have features with inherent risk, such as stairs, docks, hot tubs, or wildlife, and guests use them at their own risk. Adults are responsible for supervising any minors at all times.

Check-In, Check-Out and Travel Insurance

- Early check-in and late check-out may be available for an additional charge.
- We recommend travel insurance to protect against financial loss if you need to cancel. Coverage may be offered through your booking channel at checkout, or you can purchase a policy from an insurer of your choice. Please review any policy for eligibility, benefits, and terms.

Cancellations and Unavailable Properties

- The cancellation policy shown on your booking channel at the time of booking applies.
- Avari is not liable and no refund or compensation is owed if the property is unavailable or unusable for reasons outside our control, such as severe weather, natural disasters, mechanical failures, evacuation orders, or utility outages.
- If the property is unavailable for another reason (such as an ownership change, removal from the rental program, or extensive repairs), Avari may substitute a comparable property. If none is available, you may choose another available property (paying or receiving any price difference) or receive a full refund. Substituted properties are subject to these terms and any Unit-Specific Terms for that property. All of this is subject to the booking channel’s terms.

Legal

- To the maximum extent permitted by law, Avari and the owner, and their affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents, disclaim all warranties and are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages, or for personal injury, illness, emotional distress, or property damage related to your stay. This applies to all claims, including those based on warranty, contract, negligence, or strict liability. You agree to indemnify Avari and the owner for claims arising from your or your guests’ actions.
These terms are governed by Oregon law, unless your Unit-Specific Terms or local law require otherwise. Disputes will be resolved through individual binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, except for eligible small claims. Class actions and jury trials are waived. See the Avari Vacation Rental Agreement for full dispute resolution terms.
- Avari may assign these terms without your consent. “Avari” means the entity named in your Unit-Specific Terms or, for U.S. properties without one, Avari LLC.
- In certain U.S. markets, Avari is required to run a sex offender registry check through Guest Ranger LLC, a third-party consumer reporting agency, and by booking you authorize this check. California residents may request a free copy of their report from Avari. Washington residents may request a summary of their rights under the Washington Fair Credit Reporting Act from the reporting agency.

We absolutely loved our stay! The condo was spotless when we arrived and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. The view of the beach was incredible! we spent so much time just relaxing on the balcony and taking it all in. The location was perfect, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting Fort Walton Beach, and we definitely plan on staying here again in the future. Thank you for a wonderful stay! 🌴☀️

Clean and if you wanted to cook, the kitchen was well equipped. A great perk was chairs and umbrella provided at the beach. Also indoor parking was good. Only downside was a small pool, but more time is spent on the beach.

Avari response:

Thank you, Patricia S, for sharing your experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you found the home clean and well-equipped for your cooking needs. It’s great to know you enjoyed the beach chairs and umbrella we provide, as well as the convenience of indoor parking. We understand that the pool size may not have met your expectations, but we’re glad you spent more time enjoying the beautiful beach. Your feedback is invaluable, and we hope to welcome you back for another stay soon!

We had a great time. Rooms are nice ,cleane with the beach front view . It was so amazing & beautiful . So you walked a few minutes to the beach, beautiful white sand.

Only parking lot was a little hard to park i understand that wasn't a big deal.

I wish they have extra blankets like 2 sets of bedding bc I have 2 kids. our room had only 1 set extra spare. so if you have 2 kids+ you probably need yo bring one or more or asking the host ahead.

over all is great. we will go back again.

ps. at 3 nights stay were amazing. the weather was rough that time = Red flag for all .

So i wish next year we will be able to see a green flag or yellow flag with a nice weather.
