  The condo as a whole is fine. A few basics are missing from the kitchen (a pitcher, for instance), the balcony furniture cushions are worn out and stained, cushions in the dining chairs are flat, and the TV in the master bedroom will only play one channel. Minor things that should be addressed, but didn't keep us from enjoying our week at the beach.

    Thank you for your review. I will pass these concerns along to the appropriate party. We appreciate you letting us know. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and the beautiful beach! Look forward to hosting you again!

  Cindy B from Calvert City, KY recommends this vacation rental

  Staying in our favorite vacation rental unit is always a treat! We had a great, low key time which was the goal. My only complaint was with the Islander, not the unit. They added a pool code this year that was 6 digits. I could never remember it so walked around the pool to get to the beach walkway every day, which was a little annoying. I saw people yelling out the code to others, climbing the gate, etc. Just a minor annoyance.

  • Manager Responded on 5/24/2023

    Thank you for your feedback. We are happy that you had another great stay, and sorry that the pool gate become an obstacle. We hope to see you again soon.

  Janet M from Jonesboro, GA recommends this vacation rental

  We have stayed at Islander and in this unit many times. This was probably the best stay as far as overall condition of the property. It has been 5 years since our last stay but since then the outside of the building has been painted a lovely blue. The elevators were all working (which hasn't always been the case - and when you're on the 7th floor that can be a challenge), and the unit itself was well maintained (except for a noisy ceiling fan in the living room). I would like to see the management ban smoking completely from the property. Smoking is allowed on the balcony and we were driven off our balcony several times due to the cigarette smoke wafting in from a unit near us. Also, someone was grilling on their balcony which is against state law.

  • Manager Responded on 10/16/2021

    Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback on your stay with us.. We are so happy to hear everything within the condo was enjoyable.. We will be sure to pass your suggestions to the right parties ( the home owner's Association) in regards of the smoking. We hope to see you again in the near future.

  This was our second time staying with Brooks and Shorey and this unit was better than the first one we stayed in!. The condo we stayed in was clean and had everything we needed. It’s on the 7th (top) floor and the view is gorgeous! Will definitely stay with them again if I have the opportunity in the future! The only thing I wish the units had was recliners. I understand why they don’t but the furniture is very uncomfortable to rest on after a long day walking or on the beach. I’m still very satisfied with my stay and would recommend them to anyone!

  Location is great although its tough to walk to anything. The condo was nice but could use some updating. Great views and it was clean. The building was under renovation which we knew before renting. The elevators were slow but they also had one shut down due to resurfacing the floor. Staff was very friendly. As I said in the title it was decent for the money but in the future I would stay somewhere with more amenities on the property.

  We were concerned about cleanliness due to having read a previous negative review, however we found the condo to be very clean. The proximity to the to be fantastic. Closer than most condos. We were disappointed that only 1 of 2 elevators were functioning and it was broken down when we checked in. We were on the 7th floor and not happy with the task of hauling all our luggage up 7 flights of stairs. Fortunately the desk clerk came to or aid even thought it was outside her realm of responsibility. She did a great job assisting and arranging other assistance. Customer service at it's best. It would have been good to know that only one elevator was functioning when we booked our room. According to an owner this situation had been an issue since early September.

  This unit was very nice and well equipped. We especially enjoyed the rockers on the patio with a beautiful beach view. The master bed was comfortable but a little noisy when turning during night.
  This is not anything to do with our unit but the time we were there only 1 of 2 elevators was working and on the morning of our departure the fire alarm went off and the 1 elevator stopped running. Also while we were trying to get our stuff out the heating and air people came to replace the 8nside unit so it was a hassle trying to get out hyb10 AM.

    Thanks for your review! Glad to hear you were able to enjoy the rocking chairs and the beautiful view on the balcony.

Inside the accommodations are also great, its everything you need to relax and enjoy the time at the beach. The rental company was great to work with as well, they have an app and provide lots of communication.

  Sandra L from Columbus, IN recommends this vacation rental

  My husband and I stayed in Islander 7008 for a week in September. The condo was very nice, super comfortable living room furniture, comfortable bed in the master bedroom, and the condo was nice and clean. We enjoyed the big balcony and comfortable rocking chairs. We loved having the free beach service and my husband enjoyed the free golf amenity provided by Brooks and Shorey. First time dealing with Brooks and Shorey, didn't have to "check in", just got a call telling us our condo was ready and received the lock code. Convenient and easy. We really like the Fort Walton Beach area and would stay in this unit again. We enjoyed pizza and German food at Fokker's Pub, and great steamed shrimp at Brotula's in Destin.

  Karen F from Harvest, AL recommends this vacation rental

  First the good: Brooks & Shorey are a fantastic company to work with. The communication was fantastic, the staff considerate and professional. The beach at the Islander is great but the pool is a little small. The complex was clean and well maintained and overall the unit was nice. The living room furniture looked new and was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. Now the not so good (which most will find nitpicky but it's my review): found hair on the bathroom floor and sink when we checked in. Not a big deal but not a great first impression. The bed in the master bedroom has a lot of 'nesting' from use and wasn't comfortable. My husband and I both woke up with backaches every morning. There was no remote for the smart TV in the living room so we couldn't use our Netflix account as there was no way to get to the TV menu. The steak knives and baking sheet were rusty. The countertops have permanent stains. Over the years we've stayed at some really outstanding places and some not so much. With all that being said this unit still ranks among the top. This was our second time to rent through Brooks & Shorey and I won't hesitate to rent through them again.

  We were very happy with our stay. The unit was very clean. Loved the balcony!! The view was absolutely amazing from the seventh floor. Other than hurricane Nate causing power outage & wifi outage, our vacation met all our expectations. Loved the recliners for watching TV. We didn't use the pool.... but it was very nice... we enjoyed Beach time with the provided Beach chairs and umbrella. This was our first trip to the panhandle area and we plan on returning. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed.

  Kathleen L from Brodhead, WI recommends this vacation rental

  This property is located on the peaceful west end of the island. Restaurants and shops are located closer to the bridge. The codo was a bit over furnished for our taste, with way too many mirrors . . . walls of them! The balcony was very large and the view and access to the beach was great. Two bathrooms was a plus. The movie kiosk with complementary movie rentals was no longer at the location indicated on information we received, and no one knew that. We were finally directed to a machine at another property. It was a little frustrating as we chased all over looking for it.

  • Manager Responded on 2/23/2016

    I am glad you found the condo relaxing and peaceful, we apologize for the inconvenience of trying to locate the dvd rental machine, it is currently changing locations and we will be able to be more informative to our guests as to where the location will be, we do hope to see you again soon.

The last time we stayed a few years ago there was a minor issue with the dishwasher and maintenance came right away a repaired it. The pool is very clean and never crowded. We appreciate the family atmosphere. Wicker rockers have been added to the balcony since we last stayed and we really enjoyed those since we spend most of our time on the balcony when we are in the unit. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Ft. Walton.

Enjoyed many good local restaurants, would have to say the best was McGuire's. Brooks and Shorey Resorts personal were a pleasure to work with to ready us for such a awesome vacation.

  Everything was great as far as the stay and all of your personnel, however, those in charge need to monitor the fishing on the beach when vacationers are trying to swim. One of my friends was nearly hit in the water when one of the lines was being casted. Also, swimmers could get hooked.

  • Manager Responded on 11/12/2013

    We are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. We do advise that people be careful when crossing fisherman on the beach for this very reason. Unfortunately there are no laws in place to stop people from fishing on the beach. The majority do however fish from the pier so the beach does not have too many fisherman. We hope this has not discouraged you from visiting Okaloosa Island again.

  You never know what you're really going to get when you rent a condo. You just cross your fingers, read everyone's reviews and take a chance. I am really hard to please when it comes to accomodations away from my home. Cleanliness is top on the list followed by location and amenities. Well, folks I can tell you that Islander Beach Resort Condo #7008 in Fort Walton Beach, Florida is AWESOME!!! It gets 5 stars for all that I just mentioned. There's no way the pictures on the internet can make you realize the breathtaking views from the balcony. "Brooks and Shorey" made the check in and check out very easy. The also suggested things to do and places to eat. By the way High Tide Resturant gets two thumbs up from me and so does Sea Blaster which is a dolphin cruz. We have three children, all girls, 11, 9 and 3 years old and they loved everything about the stay. To Brooks and Shorey, Islander Beach Resort and whoever owns #7008 thanks so much for the memories. Lord willing we WILL BE BACK!

  We booked this condo from the website. Based on the reviews and info, we booked immediately. This unit was very clean and had an amazing view. We really enjoyed the free beach chairs and umbrella that was set up each morning. Many attractions are very close. The revamped Gulfarium, mini-golf, outlet mall in Destin, etc.. Kids loved the beach, pool and the area. We will definitely rent this unit again. We have rented in Gulf Shores and Navarre Beach the last 10 years. This is the best unit and location. Very happy. Thank you for a great vacation!

  Our family of 6 stayed for the week and LOVED it! Location is fantastic ... close enough to Destin but quiet and not nearly as busy. Beach is absolutely beautiful and far end is so remote it is like your personal beach. Condo is well kept and updated. Would come back again in a second.

  Absolutely wonderful condo! This was my second stay in this condo & I still love it. You can tell the condo owners definately take pride in the condo just by the decor and condition they
  keep the condo. It has the million dollar view so many people look for and I'm certain I will be staying in this condo again.

  This is the 2nd time we have stayed at the Islander. We really like it. The view cannot be beat!! The location is great, the room was clean with everything you needed. The only thing we would improve on is the couch and the bed. Not that they were terrible, but could have been better. We will definitely come again!

We always try to leave it cleaner than we found it. The sofa has spots that were not there last year. All in all we love it but maybe a little more attention to cleaning.

  The condo was very nice and decorated beautifully! The view was incredible. We want to go back already. We have already suggested it to friends! The only suggestion we have is that it would be nice for the resort to invest in some umbrellas for the pool area for those who want a break from the salt water. It gets so hot up there and there isn't any shade until evening.
