    Kimberly S from Howell, MI recommends this vacation rental

    The condo is exactly as pictured, very clean, and right on the beach. As a family, we really liked the location. The beds were comfortable, but could really use an update on the bedding, like heavier blankets and heavier comforters.

    Condo is great! Beds are comfy. Stayed in many condos over the years and this one has the best fridge with an ice maker. I am picking up something for Linda Lee. There should be two is that which one is that? OK Bathrooms are nice with tall vanities and toilets! View from balcony is awesome. Plan to give the drawers a thorough wipe when you arrive but was clean in all other places. Choose 503 and you will be happy!

    Condo was very nice and clean; exactly as described. Lots of space for a family without feeling cramped. Furniture and bedding were very comfortable. View was amazing! Kitchen provided everything needed (except for meat thermometer to cook prime rib). Great time to visit with nice weather and no crowd. We've stayed in Okaloosa Island several times and this has been my husband's favorite condo so far. Will be back.

    Condo was nice with the exception of needing a few things. Matser bath sink would stop up with water before water could get hot, Sink in the other bathroom would not get any hot water to it. Faucets look like someone had not cleaned them from previous guest, they had toothpaste on them.

The kitchen was very spacious and we loved spending time on the large balcony.There was enough outdoor furniture for all of us to sit and enjoy the ocean view. We did have a bit of difficulty trying to figure out how the flush the toilets but everything else was great. We have already booked this condo again for summer 2023.

    We have stayed at Surf Dweller many times and this was one of the best units we’ve stayed in. It was very well stocked and also very comfortable. The amenities were an added plus. Since we have stayed in this complex we were a little disappointed that we didn’t have the full closet in the master bedroom. There was also a total of 4 closets that were locked up. If we had multiple people this could have been a problem. The only other thing was that a new refrigerator was to be delivered and we asked that that not happen since we didn’t want extra people in the unit because of COVID. This request was granted. Would definitely stay here again and Brooks and Shorey rocks!

It looks just like shown in the pics, tastefully decorated with all equipment in good working order.

    This is the second time we have stayed in this condo unit. It has everything anyone would need for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. This unit is so roomy. You do not feel cramped in any room. Very comfortable furniture in TV room. Big TVs, very big balcony, and excellent view of the ocean. We had a few minor issues with the bedroom TV and the shower door but as soon as I reported it to management, someone was there to fix it. No complaints at all.

    Overall nice condo, took awhile to get hot water and find the towels, usually put out for people. The kitchen sink smelled like fish when we turned on the water, due to a dirty garbage disposal which I cleaned. Also definitely needs a large frying pan, we cooked for 5 and I had to buy one but took it home. I see now that someone mentioned it in an earlier review. Also I would've swept but there is no dust pan. Pool was nice and this condo was convenient to an elevator. Vacation cut short by Hurricane Michael, we'll try another time.

    Everything was great except for getting stuck in the elevator. One of the elevators was shut down already. I was very upset that no one answered the elevator phone, I did have my cell phone with me but if I hadn't I would not have been able to contact anyone. The fire dept. had to come and prize the door open. I also called Surf Dweller office and no one answered and they didn't have a recording of what to do in case of emergency. The Condo was very pretty and clean, but I don't know if I want to stay at this property again. Will definitely book through Brooks and Shorey again though.

    Surf Dweeler is a wonderful building and I was delighted with the accomodations. However, you should give a longer-term renter access to a vacuum cleaner. When I asked for one, the request was denied by Brooks & Shorey. Short-sighted, in my opinion. Been coming to Okaloosa Island for 14 years. Have stayed in many units & buildings. This ranked among the top,in all aspects.

    • Manager Responded on 1/23/2018

      We are very sorry to read your comment about the vacuum cleaner. Each of our condos actually does have a vacuum cleaner, we provide one in each so you should have had one in this condo for your longer-term stay!! Thank you for staying with Brooks and Shorey and thank you for putting through this comment so we know to check in to this housekeeping item in Surf Dweller 502. See you again next year!!

    The condo was perfect for our needs. It is spacious and seating in the living area and patio was plenty. The only issue we had was the hot water seemed to take forever to reach the bathrooms. In fact after a cold shower I decided to call for maintenance. He was prompt to arrive and check out the hot water heater but determined nothing was wrong. It just takes FOREVER for the hot water to reach the faucets. Other than that, the stay was perfect.

    Laura B from Spring Branch, TX recommends this vacation rental

    We were pleased with the unit and location. It would be helpful if we knew in advance what kind of coffee maker there is so we cn bring the right filters from home -- minor issue. May we suggest upgrading the decore to a little more modern, i.e. 80's wallpaper, popcorn ceiling, VHS videos are outdated, but not necessary. It was uncomfortable that the entire condo is tile, no carpet. Floor feels very gritty with the sand that gets tracked in, you cannot walk around barefoot. When comparing to the unit we had last year at Summerlin, we preferred Summerlin. Surfdweller seems a little old and beat up. But overall -- it served it's purpose. Elevator closest to our unit was not working for several days, which was inconvenient. Would also be helpful to have a ceiling fan out on the balcony -- not much air circulation. Thank you.

    The balcony view was amazing! The size of the balcony was large enough for all of us! The beach was perfect! White sand beaches and not overcrowded. The condo was a good size; it was nice to have two full beds in the second bedroom, but a king and a full would be better. You could not turn the air conditioning under 75 degrees, so it was Never very comfortable for this menopausal grandma. The hot water took forever to get warm.?The bathtub was difficult to give children baths with the sliding doors, but doable. The dishware was dated, I think someone older must own it. Overall, it was a great place to stay!

    • Manager Responded on 6/19/2017

      Surf Dweller Condominiums are the roomiest condos and are just perfect for larger groups or families. The balconies are huge as well as the floorplan and square footage so everyone truly has his/her own space while vacationing here. We are so sorry to hear about the air conditioner from your review, we do consider this an emergency type issue and we are more than happy to have an AC addressed at all times day and night. We have not had this complaint in this unit until this review, but we have had an AC professional technician at this condo within the past week addressing possible issues and making sure everything is working correctly and the inside temperature in the condo was 72 degrees. Please make sure to note we are here daily for all issues, especially for AC during the summer, we know it's a necessity!!! We appreciate you booking through us at Brooks and Shorey Resorts and we hope to have you back to Okaloosa Island for more memories in the sun and sand.

    we go to the beach every April and September and have stayed in many different locations and condos. Surf Dweller 502 was by far the best condo unit we have ever stayed at. The furniture was extremely comfortable especially the beds. Lots of balcony furniture, full size washer and dryer was a huge plus! The kitchen had everything we needed. The ice maker was not working when we got to the unit but we called for service and received it the next morning. It could not be fixed so the property owner told them to replace with a new one.

    • Manager Responded on 6/2/2016

      We are delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful time at the Surf Dweller. There should have been an extra blanket in one of the closets, unsure if you had a chance to check or not?

    One word to describe! Awesome. Just as soon as you walk in the door, the view takes your breath away. Great balcony! Nice furniture inside and on balcony. Beach chairs set up everyday you are there. Free DVD movies. Elevator close by. Park as far left to the building as you can. Elevator left front corner. When you get out unit just steps away. You will spend most of your time on the huge balcony or sitting on the beach. Bedroom awesome view also. You see the great photos posted. Well it is much better in person. Great walk in shower for master bedroom. Nice bed also. We will be staying again. Fair price, great location, great views! Do not pass this one up. You will not be disappointed!

    • Manager Responded on 5/25/2016

      Thank you so much for such an amazing review! What a great compliment to Surf Dweller 502 and Brooks and Shorey Resorts! We truly appreciate it! We are so happy that you were ably to enjoy the amenities that we provide, that the location of the condo, and the condo itself were all so perfect for you. We do agree that there is very little better than having such a nice large balcony to sit on and look straight out at the beach and the Gulf! We hope you will be able to come back and stay with us again in the future!

    We loved our stay. We have stayed at the Surf Dweller last year and decided to stay again. The condo is very large. You have plenty of room. The only problem we had was it didn't come with extra toilet paper, no washing machine detergent, the dish washing machine spelled. I would give the place a 5 star...just wish we didn't have to go buy those things.

    • Manager Responded on 7/5/2015

      Thank you for being a loyal Brooks and Shorey Resorts customer, your feedback is also appreciated, There are starter supplies provided for your stay in the condo but not enough for the full duration of your stay. We will also get the washing machine looked at. Thank you for letting us know.

LOVED LOVED LOVED the balcony! the main thing I didn't like was the location of the pool! I'm at the beach and I would like to see the beach while I'm laying out, also my mother is elderly and needs to use a walker so it would have been easier for her to enjoy the view if the pool would have been on the gulf side! I know I chose this place! lol

    Our week at Okaloosa Island was the most relaxing vacation we have experienced in years. The beach is absolutely wonderful. We are used to going to Myrtle Beach, but I have to say that Okaloosa Island beach is so much better. It's not only beautiful, it is also very quiet and relaxing. But, on the other side of that, just 10 minutes down the road, in Destin, are all the restaurants and shopping and activities you could want. The Surf Dweller condo we used was very neat and clean, which is a must for us. We have stayed in many VRBO condo's, but this is by far the best. We loved watching the dolphins each morning while having breakfast on the balcony. The Dolphin Cruise was terrific. We are so looking forward to going back.

    The layout, furnishings, overall appearance and maintenance was very good. The few small issues we had were: A kitchen sink faucet handle that broke on the next to last day; wireless router that never worked which limited the quality of internet connection (big issue because I'm a pilot and needed it to maintain a watch on the weather and file a flight plan). I also saw a large roach the morning of our departure in the kitchen bar area. I realize insects are a big problem in FL, but that's not something you want to see !! Overall I feel those are issues very easy to overcome and we'd stay there again.
