Save your money. Stay elsewhere at Fort Walton Beach. My wife and I stayed here from July 21-25, 2025. We had previously stayed in August 2023. Save yourself time and money and do not consider this “resort”. From the astronomical fees to the horrible rooms, please stay somewhere else. Your time and money are precious, do not waste either on The Island “Resort” at Fort Walton Beach. Rooms: The walls are paper thin and you will be able to hear everything at all times from other rooms and people walking outside the rooms, the AC cuts on and off frequently so it is constantly either really hot or way too cold, the plug beside our bed was not working (except when it would start working for a few minutes) so we had to leave our phones on the other side of the room when charging (again, some “resort”), the toilet seat was chipped, and the bed is awful. Parking: The parking at this “resort” is perhaps the most laughable part. You are charged a nightly parking fee but there is routinely a lack of spaces, forcing some people to park in the structure next door that is shared with another hotel. But after you pay the parking fee and parking tax, you are warned that you are parking at your own risk. This “resort” will take your money, but not even offer security. Food: The breakfast buffet is over $50 for two people. It is akin to the free breakfast offered by much cheaper hotels. Skip this. The food truck outside is pretty good though. Pool: The pool is great when you can stand being out there with the overwhelming smell of marijuana. On Sunday July 27, we went there before the beach and had to leave immediately. Just absolutely overpowering. Again, some “resort”, huh? Beach: The beach is absolutely spectacular. This is why we chose to stay here again. However, The Island “Resort” had nothing to do with the beach. There is even another company you will pay to secure beach chairs. So the best part of the trip was totally disconnected from The Island “Resort”. Bottom Line: We will never be back and I will warn everyone I know not to consider this “resort”. The beach is spectacular, but there are many other places to stay. Do not stay here. It is a waste of time and money.

Stay somewhere else Oh do yourself a favor and keep looking !! Paid for the ocean view did not get it!! Got a view of the parking lot!! The a/c would not go below 72!! I paid the 1700.00 for the ocean view and got the parking lot. Read carefully, there is a resort fee and parking fee which is 48.82 per night but people with no parking tag fill the parking spaces. It’s all shiny on the outside but spend the money somewhere else. I really hate to give a bad review but damn!!
