    a guest from Little Rock, AR recommends this vacation rental

    This was our second stay at Gulf Dunes and second experience with Brooks and Shorey. We were very pleased. The condo was as the photos depicted. We enjoyed the Alexa amenity! The washing machine quit on Day 2. The staff were quick to have maintenance take a look. When it could not be repaired by maintenance, owners were notified and service technicians came the next day. Reimbursement for use of nearby laundromat was offered. It was repaired within 2 days. We would recommend to the owners to restock the stemware. It was a collage with no 4 glasses alike. There were not 4 glasses to serve wine. Rec: A Keurig for coffee. The condo was dark at night; suggest an additional table lamp in the living room and guest bedroom. Also a 4th hightop chair for balcony would have allowed our group to eat together. Location, cleanliness, property management company, and beach service contractor were superb! We will stay here again.

    a guest from Wichita, KS recommends this vacation rental

    Very nice place with big balcony to sit and see the beach. Beach chair and umbrella service was wonderful. Nice to have a kitchen to prepare some meals. Good location to walk across the street to grab dinner. Main thing we didn't like about Unit 402 was the guest toilet ran constantly and plugged up easily even with very little toilet paper. Plunging and calling maintenance wasn't something we wanted to do during vacation. Toilet could easily be replaced for very little money compared to the amount you pay to stay.

    • Manager Responded on 5/11/2024

      Thank you for your feedback! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the big balcony and fully stocked kitchen! We will have maintenance address the toilet and apologize for the inconvenience. Come back soon to your home away from home and we will happily apply your return guest discount!

    a guest from Hixson, TN recommends this vacation rental

    We arrived the same night as hurricane Sally, which definitely put a damper on things. As far as the property, the condo was clean as just as advertised. However, there were 2 broken chairs on the balcony. The maintenance staff had the hurricane shutters closed before we arrived, I think they had to notice those! Because of Sally, we were without power for 24 hrs, without internet and cable the entire time. Also because of Sally, there was no elevator for 3 days. I understand those things could not be controlled by the property mgmt, that's just a risk you take when scheduling a beach vacation in advance!

    • Manager Responded on 10/2/2020

      Thank you for your review, we are sorry to hear Sally made an unexpected visit during your stay, hopefully next time you visit us you can experience the real beauty of the Emerald Coast

    Emmitt and Alice G from Versailles, KY recommends this vacation rental

    This is a beautiful 4th floor beachfront condo. Our family of 4 had a wonderful time reconnecting. The inside of the unit was very clean with the exception of the loveseat cushions that were heavily stained, but comfortable. We covered it with a blanket and it was not an issue for us. The rooms were spacious and decorated in a relaxing beachy theme. The kitchen is well stocked with anything one might need to prepare meals. We ate out several nights and some of our fav's were McGuires, Boshamps and the Magnolia Grill. The elevators are very fast and there are rolling carts in the garage to help with carting up groceries and luggage. I especially liked having an on site office to answer our questions and help us schedule the free golf and cart that came with this unit. We would definitely rent this condo again! Wonderful beach vacation!

    This is the 6th time we have stayed at the Gulf Dunes Condos. Unit 402 was perfect for our vacation with Daughter, Son-In-Law and twin grandsons. We chose this unit because of the two king beds and bunks. There is a beautiful view from the balcony. The kids loved the beach and the pool. The beach chair set up each day (even when it rained) was perfect. The staff being on hand in the building was a plus when we had to have a package overnighted to us. The kitchen was well stocked with necessary items so we could cook several meals easily. We will definitely use Brooks and Shorey next time we come to the Ft Walton area. Okaloosa Island is perfect for families as it isn't as crowded as Destin but an easy drive.

    We had an amazing time at the beach and in the condo. The view from the condo was amazing, and we soaked it up as much as we could. The condo itself was amazing and we enjoyed every aspect of it. The only minor issue we had is that the clothes dryer is very slow. But everything else was just fantastic.

      Your 5 star ratings say everything and neither we nor the condo owner could ask for better!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for trusting Brooks and Shorey Resorts to get you in an awesome vacation home for your beach getaway, we appreciate your business. We will have someone take a look at the clothes dryer in the condo, sometimes the lint builds up with all the guests coming and going and that makes it tough to get everything dry...but we'll look into it for sure! Thank you again, we hope to hear back from you soon so we can get you a discount for being a return guest of ours!!

    A nice property and reasonably priced. Wish beach towels were furnished for folks who fly in rather than drive. Enjoyed the free beach chairs and umbrella.

    This was a really wonderful property, and the included beach chairs/umbrella plus covered parking space was awesome. I would come back here in a heartbeat, the staff in the building was so friendly and attentive, the digital key was so convenient. The unit was really lovely, beautifully decorated, comfortable and all of the amenities that you need.. The one thing we desired was an outdoor hot tub and a larger pool. We have kids and there's not really a "kid vibe" at this property. There were a couple of older people that once told my kids to be quiet in the pool. So, to sum it up. Beautiful place, if you have older kids it's absolutely perfect. But we have younger ones and they are loud, and we prefer to have a bigger pool and pool area.

      Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us!

    • Manager Responded on 10/24/2016

      Fort Walton Beach, especially Okaloosa Island, embodies a slower, more relaxed pace than most other beach vacation towns. The Gulf Dunes Condominiums affords spacious condo floorplans, roomy balconies, and two convenient boardwalks over the Dunes to get you to the beach. It's at the beginning of the Island so you are near restaurants and shops, and the fishing boardwalk. The weather this time of year is GORGEOUS, comfortable and calm. 402 Gulf Dunes is a GEM, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come back soon for more basking in the Florida Sun!

    The Gulf Dunes unit 402 was an older unit but clean and nice. The free beach chairs were a plus as was the other "freebies" . We had a 17 month old so we could not take advantage of them. The water and weather was great!
    The only complaint I have is that our unit was not ready at the 4:00pm check in time. It is hard to understand why the cleaning crew could not have the room ready with a 10:00am checkout time. If the previous vacationers did not checkout on time then they should be penalized. There should be a better way to monitor when you checkout.

    Condo was perfect! Only item I would like added would be a large crock pot. BBQ area was pretty far away, having 1 on each side would have been more convenient. A lounge or outside Tiki Bar would be a great addition as well..Chin, who took care of the umbrellas & chairs, was fantastic and an huge asset to our positive experience on the beach!! We have stayed at 5 other condos in different complexes on Okaloosa Island in the last 10 years and this is by far the best!! We will be back :)

    a guest from Cabot, AR recommends this vacation rental

    After seeing that the weather may not cooperate during our stay, we left home a few hours earlier than planned and arrived at the facilities 4.5 hours before check-in. We went ahead and let them know we were there and used the facilities to change and hit the beach, to get in as much sand, sun and fun as we could. Mary Ann checked us in, gave us our welcome package and said that the our unit was clean, just needed to be inspected and she would let us know as soon as it was ready and we ended up being able to get into the unit by 2PM. We enjoyed the afternoon on the beach, got our gear stowed away and went out for a late lunch and then to the grocery store for supplies. Everything was nice and close to us, plenty of restaurants for our dining pleasure and several nice gift shops for souvenirs. We were able to get in another day on Sunday before the rains came in that night and Monday was a total washout. We stayed around the room, read, played games then hit the gift shops before having another nice dinner a few blocks away. Tuesday was another nice day that was spent on the beach, before we had to start packing up for the trip back home on Weds. The beach was very clean, life guards were great and informative, the water was great except for the day after all the rain, the people at Gulf Dunes were very nice and helpful, the room was very nice and clean, the mattress on the sleeper sofa however, was pretty nonexistent and the rest of the room showed to be a little outdated, but, that didn't matter to us! We hope to come back again in the near future.

This was my first time to Fort Walton Beach and she gave us lots of ideas for thing to do when we were there. There is nothing I would change about this condo, perfection location, well appointed, awesome sea life watching from the balcony. I would definitely stay at this condo again. Also, you get a covered parking spot which is nice to get your car out of the hot sun.

    Everything was okay for the most part. The rug in the living room was filthy. It had not been vacuumed at all and smelled really bad. The day of our arrival the dishwasher had not yet been installed and we had to work around the installer. . One of the appliances (blender) did not work in the kitchen.

    • Manager Responded on 8/11/2014

      First, thanks for doing our review and letting us know these aspects of your stay with us. We do appreciate you staying with us at Brooks and Shorey, we wish you had brought to our attention the blender that was out of service during your stay, we would have sent housekeeping straight up with a new one for you. We offer apologies for the installation of the new dish washer into this unit while you were on vacation, unfortunately these things happen at times none of us can predict. We do our best to work around our guests, on the positive side I hope you enjoyed the new dishwasher! Once again sorry you were not completely satisfied this stay but next time you are staying with us at Gulf Dunes please be sure to utilize the onsite maintenance and front desk employee! Hope to see you again!!

    The condo was beautifully decorated and very clean, had a nice start-up stock of toilet paper and other necessities, huge quantity of towels were provided, beautiful view from the balcony, front desk staff were very nice and helpful, and it was very quiet. We were extremely comfortable staying here, and we felt safe. The only negative I could say (which is minor at best) is the washer and dryer worked best with small loads of laundry. It's not a huge problem except the evening before we left, we had the washer and dryer going constantly so we could finish the laundry for all of us before packing. Otherwise, it was fantastic! We would definitely stay here again!

    a guest from Fleming Island, FL does not recommend this vacation rental.

    The location of the condo is not to our liking. We went into Destin for all of our meals and entertainment. We were not happy with what the area around the condo had to offer.

    • Manager Responded on 4/30/2014

      Thank you for your review. Its unfortunate that you did not like the location of the property or the near by restaurants. It is a great location with quite a few restaurants near by.

    Joe S from Louisville, KY recommends this vacation rental

    Location was great. Very convenient. Away from the traffic. A couple of very small things with the condo. Work on condo next door made the hallway outside dusty.

    Having chairs on Beach was great. Everyone was extremely nice.

      Thank you for taking the time to answer our review, we hope you will come visit us in Fort Walton Beach again soon.

    We are long term winter renters (4 months), and are very happy here. Our only concern recently has been regarding entries to the unit when we have not been home. We have addressed this issue with the manager and hope to be notified in the future.

    Kerri W from Marion, IL recommends this vacation rental

    We stayed in Gulf Dunes 402. Wow, I can't say enough wonderful things about this condo. We have stayed at three other condo's at Gulf Dunes and 402 was by far the best!! It had everything you could ever want or need for a week at the beach. You could really tell this was someone's home, not simply a rental property that had been forgotten about. We had never used Brooks & Shorey before either, and since we were needing a total of four condos this was the best way to go about renting them. They were very helpful and accommodating to our entire group. The extra amenities were a nice addition as well. We used the included beach setup each day and the beach guys were great in setting up all four groups together each day!! I actually hated leaving the king size bed in the master bedroom, it had one of those new foam mattress' and I slept better there than I did at home.!! Can't wait to come back next summer. I hope to be able to stay in 402 again!!

    The condo was very nice/clean. The people at the desk were friendly/helpful. The only things we were disappointed with were the size of the pools and the size/lack of equipment in the work out room.

    Our stay at Gulf Dunes was wonderful. It had everything we needed. Convenient to Destin as well as things in Ft. Walton. Reasonable Rates for daily or weekly. Will go back yearly.

  • We really enjoyed #402. It had all the comforts of home. The kitchen had anything you could possibly need! Loved it!!

    AJ was really helpful when arranging our stay. I was in town for the fudpuckers tourney and the condo location was close to the tourney site. I stayed there(Gulf Dunes) in 2008 also. Next visit
    to FWB, I will stay at Gulf Dunes. Everything was clean and comfortable.
