The Village of South Walton Fountains?

Does anyone know if the fountain is operational?

Has not been operating for 3 seasons now. Last year they had a couple of little "water spouts" in the middle they got to come on briefly, but the owner of that tract is not going to invest in fixing them, nor pay for the liability insurance, according to what we've been told. Hard to believe that Alys Beach thinks fountains are such an added benefit that they are putting in some, and no one undertands the benefit at the villages.

My husband and I are staying at a condo in The Village in mid-July, so I am disappointed. Do you have any ideas or thoughts about The Village? Is there a better option? We just need a small studio near the beach. Thanks for your help!

Can anyone provide feedback about this complex? If management has not kept the fountain operational, I'm worried about what else has not been attended to by the powers that be.

The fountains are owned by the owner of the kiosks, Tom Fitzpatrick, surrounding the fountains. They have nothing to do with the rest of the complex. It is a shame that they will not maintain the fountains.

Wuchie, I've got an idea...buy an RV and park it at Destin RV Resort when you come down!

Ah...the good life!

Wow...sounds tempting, but just not in the budget.

The rest of the complex seems to be pretty well maintained, with new shops and restaurants newly added.

I've never booked a condo in that complex but as a fellow VRBO'er I looked at their ads on line. Their prices look great and the some of the condos look huge. It's in a location where you could literally park you car for days and only walk, bike, run, crawl or slide. I think it's a great option for those on a budget. :up:

I just got back from the area. We stayed at the Inn at Seacrest Beach. Nice studios and quiet complex. Sad to be home!
