Awesome beach vacations spot

This property is perfect for our annual girls trip. This is the second year that we have stayed at Gulf Dunes and we love it. It couldn't be more convienent, right on the beach and Stewby's (best seafood and hushpuppies ever) is a 2 minute walk from the condo. We will be booking at Gulf Dunes for our 2022 trip!

Beautiful Beach view

We lived the location and the amenities of this location. The condo was pretty dirty though and they said they only clean walls and baseboards once year. Other than the super clean factor it was really nice.

Excellent beachfront stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the perfect place for our family of 5. We loved the easy walk to the beach and the inclusion of the beach chairs. We had fun at the pool, tennis courts and volleyball net too. I think this might be one of the only places on the beach with a net! As for the room - also perfect, spacious, clean, organized and with everything you need. Love that it’s right across from mini golf and stewbys, too! Thanks for an awesome vacation! We will be back!

The view in the units and the closeness of it on the beach. The resort is quite and not a lot of people. This is our 8th year to stay at this resort. All but one year was fabulous. The unit had bugs but all other years we have stayed was perfect. I will return again. One suggestion the only thing missing on these units is a hot tub.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I’ve stayed in many different condos on Okaloosa/Ft. Walton Beach over the last 30 years. This was the most well-stocked unit I’d been in. It had Very Comfortable furniture. Nicely decorated- not overly beachy. Dan, the beach chair man, was super nice and informative about storms coming. My out-of-state guests were first time visitors and had a great time.

Nice Stay

Everything was great. Only 2 small issues, one was a few of the dishes put away appeared to still be dirty. This was our 2nd time staying at Brooks and Shorey property and just got an email post stay about getting a discount next time because we've stayed there before. Why didn't we get a discount this time which was our 2nd time? Other than those 2 very minor issues the stay was great.

Great Rental for a Christmas Holiday

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was everything we wanted for the season. The unit rated a 10 in my opinion for layout and amenities. We love this location as it is away from the hustle of Destin yet easily accessible. Alliances were up to date and the cookware was useable which is not often the case. I probably wouldnt rent at the height of beach season as is right above the pool and would get quite noisy. I would definitely recommend this unit and will request it again for a great winter vaca to the beach.

Room 315

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 loved the stay but there were a few things worth noting. There was nothing to cook with. No baking dishes, cookie trays, baking trays, tongs, spatulas. Nothing to speak of. The dryer and dishwasher were not working right and each took upwards of 4 hours to finish a load. The ice maker would also only make a cup of ice per day. The rooms were nice. The view was great. Pool was great. Everything else was good!

315 Gulf Dunes

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Older, quiet location with beautiful beach that has recently been updated. AC can be adjusted, but resets itself automatically to 75+, so on those days/nights of 90+ temperatures and high humidity, it gets pretty stuffy! Floors and baseboards were dirty...did not walk barefoot; too grimy. Need to replace outdoor dining chairs and the rug in the living room (it was nasty). Kitchen was well equipped. Having washer/dryer was a huge plus. Consider replacing one full bed with a queen in the double room.

NICE BUT NEEDS A REFRESH

Had some small issues one the first day. The shower head in the master bath and coffee maker not in working order. Sent an email and they were both fixed within 20 Mins Which was awesome. The unit wasn't very clean overall . Pink mold in the bathroom and a wet spot with mold on the wall by the bar in the kitchen. The master bedroom mattress was in dire need of replacement. Very hard and felt like sleeping on a stack of springs. Overall I'd stay there again if they got a new mattress and gave it a good deep clean.

Gulf Dunes Unit #315

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. 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: The rental unit was not as clean as with previous experiences at Gulf Dunes. Immediately noticeable was the dirty and sandy floor. My wife was not happy with the condition of the floor and ended up mopping the floor three times to get it clean. There was a mop in the unit but no mop bucket so she had to use a trash can for the water. Also disgusting was the rug under the coffee table. It left the bottoms of your feet black. It obviously hasn't been laundered or cleaned in a very long time. The bunk bed room had trash under the nightstand and under the bed.

Did have a couple of complaints though such as the AC would only work half the time, the area rug in the living room was very dirty so your feet would be black afterwards. We had problems with the sliding glass door opening as well.

Somethings that we missed having: cutting board, knife sharpener. Also a smart TV in the living room would be nice so we could use our Hulu/Netflix subscriptions. We'll be back in 2023!

Perfect Condo for our family!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked this condo for our family of 6, but my kids also brought along 2 friends. The bunk room was small be perfect for my boys. The 2 beds in the guest bedroom was great for all of the girls. The kitchen had everything we needed. The fridge has a water and ice dispenser which was awesome and unexpected. The pool is small and does get crowded, but the tradeoff is that the parking was easy and we always found a spot.
