Yearly Family Vacation

Surf Dweller has been the best place to stay in Ft. Walton and room 712 has been the best room in the 5 years we've stayed. All have been different rooms just to get a feel for the different view point. Only downfall that i can think of are the elevators being slow...but hey, you're at the beach so whats the rush. Love this place

Great Condo, Beautiful View!

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: Very clean, comfortable condo. The location is quiet and easy to get in and out of. It needs a few minor repairs (kitchen faucet, washing machine, slider door) but it did not affect our stay and we notified them after we left so they could fix for the next person. I would rent again!

Great stay

Great place to stay. Special should out for Elizabeth from the property management office who relocated us to this unit proactively after finding our rented unit to be too noisy because of some renovation work on the unit. She was a superstar and made sure we enjoyed our 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: I have rented through numerous realtors in Ft. Walton for many years. Brooks and Shorey is by far the most attentive and on spot with their communications about the rental. We have been staying 1-2 times year for the past 50+ years and B&S will now be our go to choice. The FREE beach service is a definite plus!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo itself was really nice and clean. The king bed slept really well. The view was amazing!! The only two negatives was the ice maker didn’t make enough ice for all if us, and the elevator door would not always open and you would get stuck sometimes. Overall, I would return and stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great condo. Very clean and great layout. It’s near perfect but the bed in the master bedroom was very uncomfortable and so soft you sink into it and it’s difficult to move. All other aspects were perfect.

Great Unit in a great location

This condo had everything we needed, plenty of space to spread out and kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly think of. Only constructive criticism I have is there is no mechanical lock on the front door, only the numerical keypad (which did have a dead bolt that wasn't working/installed). So from the inside it would be super easy for little kids who like to wander to just take off without anyone noticing.

Customer service is excellent, so quick to respond if you have a question and willing to help anyway. It’s family friendly and just overall a relaxing environment! We can’t wait for our next stay..

Perfect Stay!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 view from the balcony was perfect! Saw lots of dolphins and spent one morning watching a bunch of surfers. Perfect amount of space for a family of 4. The beds were super comfortable and the couch was perfect for family movie nights after a day in the sun. The included chairs and umbrella made beach days perfect. Check in and check out was super easy. The included app for our stay was such a nice touch and super helpful. 100% will return back to this condo! I actually want to know where the couch was bought from because my family now wants the exact one!

Amazing accommodations and customer service

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 is a beautiful and comfortable condo. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable and the couch was spacious. That said, the best part of the place is the amazing deck which had great furniture and stunning views. I also have to give a shout out to Brooks and Shorey’s customer service. Due to a mix-up that was 100% my fault, we arrived at Fort Walton Beach the week before our actual reservation. The staff at Brooks and Shorey worked with us to find accommodations for the week at the last minute and saved our family vacation. I am so grateful to them for that and will continue to use them for all future vacations to this area.
