  Nice facility. Room was as described. 2nd floor is a big plus. Elevators are quick. Parking spaces are nice size, very convenient and under cover. Great family area. Our first time at Fort Walton. 6 miles from Destin. Only complaints were, the pools are a little small. The fitness area is WAY outdated. Only 3 machines one didn't work. But overall a very nice family friendly facility. Talked to many other tourist that have been coming back for years. We will be back. We will check other dates the time we were there was a bit too pricey. Oh, and free movies.

  a guest from Monroe, Ga recommends this vacation rental

  Overall stay was good. The location was great. Easy to enter/exit. Bed was comfy. The condo is above the pool and it could be quite noisy at times. However, at night it would be less noisy so that was ok. The only negative comment I must leave is the condo complex is open to people parking and using the facilities like the pool and entrance to the beach and the garage. The only place a code was needed was to the pool restrooms! No code was needed for the garage parking nor to pool area which leads to the beach. We never felt insecure, however, we didn’t like the openness that was easily available to non renters/owners. We did like the keyless entry to our condo. The condo was very clean just needed a few updates like a towel bar in bathroom closest to bedroom. Plenty of soft towels which was nice. Great fridge and ice maker. Staff friendly. We loved the sea blaster snorkel and dolphin cruise. Thanks for the free ticket. It was fun, overall stay was good

  • Manager Responded on 9/7/2018

    Thank you for your review and feedback. Although Gulf Dunes is not a gated are, it is not open to the public.

  Our vacation was great. We love Ft. Walton Beach and have made a few trips to the area in the past. My wife loves the white, powdery sand, clear water, and free dolphin tours. I really enjoyed the free golf. The condo had great beach service and every night the pool was cleared out by about 2130. The negatives about the room was it was right next the elevator which was right by the bedroom so we could hear everyone coming and going. Condo was very clean and well furnished. Great view. Nice staff. Close to restaurants and touristy stuff.

  Amy P from West Monroe, LA recommends this vacation rental

  We stayed here with our two young daughters and I cannot thing of one negative thing to say about our stay! If you are looking for a well kept condo on the beach, this one is perfect! Furnishings are in great condition, may not be the most "modern" but if you are coming here you are more concerned with the beach I would think than the condo furnishings! The views from the balcony are exactly what are in the photos! Nothing misleading, you are right on the beach with breathtaking views of the gulf! Beach access could not be easier! This specific unit, 205, in my opinion is perfect for families with small children. You are right by the elevator which takes you to lobby and straight to pool and beach access! Running up to the condo from the beach was no problem at all! If you are looking for resort amenities this one may not be for you. The pool is perfect, nothing fancy. If you are looking for a true beach condo this is it! No large complex to walk through to get to the beach! It took us less than 5 minutes to get from the condo with our two small girls and beach cart in tow to our beach chairs! We definitely would stay here again! Okaloosa Island and Gulf Dunes condos were just the right pace for our family. Not too crowded, not too flashy and had everything we were looking for in a family beach trip! Honestly I can't think of a negative comment to share about the property!

    Honestly we couldn't be more grateful to you and yours for first trusting us to book your condo vacation home through and that you took the time to submit this amazing feedback from your stay. Everyone loves the Gulf Dunes and you've hit the nail on the head giving reasons why! It's exactly as you say, the best location on Okaloosa Island and not too flashy or big. It affords a great family oriented spot to relax and experience in the Gulf Coast. No distractions, just good ole beach time!! Thank you so very much for the wonderful comments on your stay please come see us again soon for another great family getaway!

  This condo was in an excellent location. Great ocean view. The bunk beds were a nice addition as we had a party of 3. Everyone was very comfortable.

  We have stayed at this property several times and each time it has been a great time. Most of the staff is friendly and helpful and the units we have used are all nicely decorated. We love that every unit is oceanfront too. The only downside is that along with the 2 pools it would be nice to have at least one hot tub. The location is close to most things and we would recommend this property to others and we will most likely stay there again in the future.

  Our stay was more than enjoyable. The property was beautiful. The management team was polite and helpful. And the maintenance team was excellent. The only suggestion that we would offer would be to the cleaning crew. They need to be more thorough in their cleaning.

  Our stay at this condo unit was for the most part was ok, having issues with some of the appliances (freezer, cloths dryer) made a inconvenience to us. Also the outside pool only accomidated 20 people, not much room.

  generally a very nice place. Had a slight odor--especially coming from the refrigerator. It would be really nice if the unit had one or two small packets of dishwasher detergent.

  We enjoyed every minute of our stay at Gulf Dunes. The condo was beautiful, the people were friendly, and it was not too crowded. We love Fort Walton Beach and plan to visit again soon - would definitely recommend Gulf Dunes & Brooks & Shorey Resorts!

  Good location. Great beaches. Clean but the condo decor and kitchen utensils, etc. were very bare minimum. It felt like a basic rental.
