The Island Resort at Fort Walton Beach
Room was not the cleanest (spray from something in the ceiling) the grotto was closed along with the beach bar and we got no discounts on our stay even though that info was not posted or give. To use prior to booking. Also they charge for parking nothing in the booking about this. It’s an okay place ...
