The view is beautiful, the place was clean and the beds were comfy. We did do some work on our laptops while there, and the glass table and wood chairs did make us a bit sore (we’re getting older so we bruise more easily 😂), but otherwise it was a relaxing getaway, just what was needed.

We loved our stay here. The condo was exactly as described, the beach service was awesome, our condo was clean, it was in a great location (definitely go to Stewbys!). Our dislikes were minimal, the pillows were thin and there was not any basic condiments at all (olive oil, salt and pepper, etc) which we thought was so strange. Overall we will definitely stay again!

This stay was really very nice. The management company for this property was outstanding!! Excellent communication throughout the whole renting process. The rating only reflects the condo needing some updating, felt tired. But it was clean and comfortable for our needs. Gorgeous view of the Gulf and easy access to the pool and beach. Very enjoyable time!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We travel to Okaloosa Island every year and stayed in many units. We always use Brooks &Shorey for booking. It is always a great experience. This unit was very basic, but nice enough. It had several maintenance issues and definitely needed a deep, ceiling to floor cleaning, but the beds were comfortable and as always, the view was amazing.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time on our vacation. The place was great. It was just as it was described. We enjoyed our stay. The only thing I noticed was that the website said if any animals were on the premises, you would be asked to leave without a refund. I hurriedly requested a dog sitter in Ft. Walton, but then noticed two different dogs in the same building that we were in. This would not keep me from returning, but I was confused.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been coming to Destin/Fort Walton area for nearly 20th and we absolutely love the atmosphere, people and whatnot has to offer. We love that FW is quiet and relaxing and if we need excitement, Destin is only a few minutes away and as soon as we need quiet, back to FW we go to relax again. Gulf dunes is a great place to vacation at and Brooks and Shorey made the process easy for booking! The only downfall to our stay was upkeep of the condo itself. Trash stashed behind the couch, toilet paper roll in the guest bathroom was completely gone and looked as if someone just broke it off, the small room with bunks blinds were broken, refrigerator didn’t make any ice, and it just seemed outdated. However, most of our time was spent on the beach so we were able to overlook it, just a little eye sore from what we are used to.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at Gulf dunes several times and at this particular unit once before. We love this area. It is close enough to Destin and Fort Walton to have plenty to do but a little less busy. The condo is well situated and has fantastic views. There were some minor maintenance issues with the unit. Bathroom towel rails and toilet paper holders were all loose in main bathroom. The patio door in the living room did not lock at all and the front door lock was not always opening with the code. Otherwise, the condo was very clean and well taken care of. We will likely return again. Kitchen was well stocked and we had plenty of towels which was great as we had 6 people in our party. there was plenty of room for us all. A wonderful vacation and we enjoyed our time.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 20th year to FWB for our annual beach get away, almost all have been at this property. Always loved it and have a good time. This year we stayed in The west tower in unit 416. I know these things are owned individually, but id have to say that this unit was def the most mediocre ive stayed in. Although pictures did show what it looked like and what all its furnished with, it def is one that is just a rental. Bathtub in the master is stained and just looks dirty, towel holders/tp holders coming off the walls, tiles are loose in places and feel its about to pop up any min, beds are not comfortable at all, walls are bare, kitchen stoves burners are on their last leg, and the kitchen island had pretty significant water damage that was just painted over. Dryer is slow at best. Overall unit was clean and in tact, just bot what you would expect for almost 4k for a week. The livingroom was the best part if this unit that made you feel you were not in motel, and the tv is updated and nice.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo is just ok- needs many updates. The furniture is very old and it is not comfortable at all. The chairs you can barely sit in without sliding out of. The icemaker was broken, but the maintenance man came and fixed it quickly, which was very nice. There were many loose outlets and he also replaced those. The drawers in one of the bedrooms was broken. We had issues on the elevator, it was very scary, but that was fixed immediately, which we so appreciated! I have stayed at Gulf Dunes before that in a different condo. That condo was very nice. I would not rent this particular condo again. When I pay that much money for a vacation, I like everything to work, be clean and be able to sit in good furniture and all appliances working . The beach service was awesome. Dan was very accommodating and we appreciated that.! As I said before, I will stay at Gulf Dunes again but not be in this condo. The owners need to update! Kitchen, dishes, toaster, etc. all needs updating. I recommend Gulf Dunes, but not this condo.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the best week on Okaloosa Island. Beautiful weather. Brooks & Shorey were the best to work with! Very responsive to emails and a pleasure to work with. The condo was beautiful and clean. My only suggestion is it needs a new stove & new dryer! Stove is way outdated and the eyes are all crooked making cooking annoying. Plenty of cups/plates/silverware, but could use more cooking pans. The dryer is TERRIBLE!!!! Had to run it 3 x 60 min cycles to get clothes dry! TERRIBLE!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location to the location where we were attending a wedding for our niece. Condo needs some up dating. Had a few lamps that wasn’t working and the bedroom furniture needs updating. Master bed head board was loose and when you moved it hit the wall. Other than a few things needing repairs and updating, enjoyed the stay and would stay there again.

If I wanted to complain about something it would be the tv channels, with all the streaming, but thats totally on me! The place was GREAT! Location and the parking was great with great access to the beach. Plenty of room for the 4 of us. Would Gladly recommend the property for future travelers!
