"Our getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the condo other than it seemed stuffy at night and the right side of the bed felt like it was sinking down a lot"

"Girls Trip
We love Okaloosa Island because it’s never crowded. So many delicious restaurants within 5 miles radius. Free beach service is so convenient. 4003 is a beautiful 1 bedroom unit with 1 large bathroom. We loved the roomy floor plan. Furniture in the living area is very nice and comfortable. We loved the balcony furniture. There is abundant storage available. The bunks in the hallway are not comfortable, thin and very hard. King bed in master is firm but comfortable. Booking is always simple and everyone is very helpful at Brooks & Shorey. I’ve used them for years. "

"JUNE 2024
We really enjoyed our beach vacation staying at this location. The condo was clean and had plenty of storage space to be able to unpack and put everything away. The location was perfect with being right on the beach. The balcony was nice to sit out on early morning and evening with a beautiful view. "

"The start of retirement
We stayed at emerald towers west from Jan 1 to March 9 That place was very nice. It was clean,well equipped with everything the view was great and we enjoyed it a lot. Hannah and the people at Brooks and Shorey Resort were very nice. The only thing wrong was the mattress was sagging on one side. Great time"

"Old friends trip
This was a nice condo. It was equipped with with everything we needed in the kitchen. Lots of room for the 4 of us. However the beds were the most uncomfortable I’ve experienced in one of the condo rentals. The master bed was so hard we had mostly sleepless nights all week. The bunk beds had a very strange cardboard type of box springs that was so loud every time you moved and I can’t even describe how uncomfortable it was. We had to buy a mattress topper to try to get some comfort and sleep. Believe it or not the hide a bed in the sofa was the most comfortable, snd that’s not really a compliment. The only chairs are the balcony we’re tall pub type, again uncomfortable. The condo was clean with nice furnishings. I really think some attention needs to be made to the beds for future guess. "

"Vacation Getaway
This was a return visit to this very good one bedroom condo on the beach. Great views from the balcony. Enjoyed the complimentary beach umbrella and chairs. Also enjoyed one complimentary sunset cruise. Only issue was the WIFI and cable went in and out several times on our first few days. Brooks & Shorey were responsive if we needed them."

Enjoyed our stay there. Great location. We would stay there again. "

"Nice location
We enjoyed the location of this condo. It’s a smaller condo, so the beach was not crowded. The chairs and umbrella already set up for us was a wonderful addition. We loved the bed set up. It was nice to be able to have a smaller condo for a weekend stay but still have a bed for each kid. It was clean other than the bunk beds had a good bit of sand in them. The sheets were for sure fresh, so we think it may have been trapped in the top blankets. The condo itself is in need of some repairs. There were a few spots on the ceiling that were coming off and several spots on the walls that were damaged. There was also a chair with a leg bent so we were scared to us that chair. Overall the condo worked for what we needed, but we did feel like we overpaid for what we got. "

"Emerald Towers West
The view and location was fantastic. However, the mattress needs to be replaced in the bedroom, the bathroom could use a paint job or a serious cleaning of the walls above and around the shower and the furniture in the living room and dining room are showing some wear. One of the chairs at the table has a leg that is unstable."

"Empty Nesters getaway!
The condo was nice, however the only dresser with drawers was broken. The drawers fell out when opened. The best thing about the condo besides an Awesome View is the great water pressure in the shower! "

"Nice little one bedroom condo
Condo was just as advertised..very clean..ready on time..really enjoyed the free beach service and the Explorie package"
Apr 30, 2022 - , Memphis, TN
"Emerald Towers West
This was our first time at the property and the view did not disappoint. The condo was clean, but would recommend having a hair dryer in the unit and investing in a new mattress. The owners had family pictures set out, which was weird. The maintenance around the outdoor shower was lacking. We actually pulled the mat up and tried hosing off all the sand that had built up so when rinsing off, you wouldn’t splatter more sand on you. It would have been nice since the weather was gorgeous that chair service was offered like other condos we’re doing. Overall, we had a great and relaxing visit."

Great location on the beach. Even provided chairs and a big umbrella free of charge. Condo was clean and well furnished. Only 2 negatives; ice maker didn't work and no wash clothes in bathroom. Otherwise, very nice!

"Relaxing Excape
The rental was a nice size unit for two adults. The couches/chairs were not very comfortable and there were a few cosmetic errors on the ceilings and walls (paint chipping/bulging). There were some leftover water bottles left under the bed and food in cracks of the couches, but all in all, it was a pretty clean unit. I know they don't have control over other units, but the walls are pretty thin so we could hear nextdoor neighbors. Also, other guests were smoking marijuana so that was off-putting to smell on the patio. But, the umbrellas on the beach were a wonderful addition and the beach itself was beautiful! A heads up though--this unit is not in walking distances of any restaurants (closest is 30 minutes away) so plan to get a rental car or uber."

"clells
The Condo was nice and clean. The area was very crowded. The condo was like the pictures, however I would never stay there again. These condo's are so poorly built every time the people above us would get up to walk or run in some cases it sounded like they were in our condo. Also the Pot Smoking was a turn off."

We had a wonderful time at the Condo. It was very clean and we loved the view! We enjoyed the bar size patio furniture too. It was a great place to sit and eat breakfast and look at the gorgeous view! The condo is in a great location and off the main strip away from all the traffic. It has an ocean view and it was amazing. The condo is well stocked with all the necessary items for cooking and washing your clothes. We enjoyed our stay greatly and will definitely love to stay again in the future!"

This condo is so nice, you can't go wrong. Everything was so clean and nice. Towels and extras were in abundance. The view is AMAZING! We found the bed to be very comfortable to our liking with plenty of pillows and blankets to spare. I can't recommend this condo enough. Would love to return some day! management team was great. They helped me out with a package delivery of my meds that I left at another location and they were very helpful. Any time I spoke on the phone with them they were very nice. Thanks again to the owners of this lovely condo for sharing! "

"Perfect Getaway!
The condo was very clean and well appointed. Everything we could need, in terms of kitchen supplies was there! It appeared as if the kitchen appliances were brand new. All of the furniture was very comfortable, the mattress in the bedroom was also comfortable. The view of the Gulf is incredible as the building sits on the beach. I liked that the pool area was in back of the building so there was nothing to restrict or distract from the view of the surf. We looked at booking again for next year, but unfortunately, it appears it is already booked for the dates we looked at. I would definitely recommend to others. Only one slight issue, the cleaning crew evidently forgot to leave washcloths! There was only One in the unit so I just bought a cheap bundle of washcloths at WalMart. It was no big deal, just a funny oversight! "

"Most wonderful vacation of our lives
seriously, this vacation was pretty much near perfect! The condo was very clean and just what we needed for our stay. This was a special trip for us, as this was the 1st trip to the beach with our foster (soon to be adopted) son who is 2, almost 3! The absolute only thing I would of liked differently, would be that the pool was facing the ocean side, not the street side. We had a wonderful experience, from booking, to checking in and out. We will be renting this one again!"

"Not the usual experience
We rent from Brooks and Shorey 3 times a year. This is the first condo and building that was not up to what I see as their standard. The air conditioning was out when we got there, but the maintenance folks responded quickly and it was fixed about 12 hrs later. My issue was more with the building, which I do not believe B&S manage. There was a lot of partying, smoking, empty beer containers and just not the nice environment you typically get staying on Okaloossa. "

"Scenic Gulf View - Excellent Location - Beautifully Decorated
This condo unit is beautifully decorated and updated. It has a welcoming feel to it and is very comfortable. The beach/gulf view is excellent-we saw numerous dolphins in the gulf. It was also very clean. We had an issue with one of the TVs and maintenance came right away (within 15 minutes) and resolved the problem. Have stayed in other units in this condo before but prefer to try and reserve unit 4003 as it is so tastefully decorated from the inside furniture and features to the outside balcony furniture. Would definitely recommend this property to a friend/relative without hesitation. "

"Nice vacation rental.
The overall experience at this particular rental was pretty good. The location was awesome, and the rental was very clean. However, we did have issues with the technology that was in the rental. The wifi was terrible, and the DVD player didn't work properly. If I plan a future trip back to this area I will probably go with a different rental."

"We can't wait to visit again!
We were very pleased with our stay at ETW 4003. The location was great, the condo was very clean, nicely decorated, well equiped and you just couldn't beat the view of the beach. The condo building was well maintained as well. The elevator was a little hot and sometimes musty smelling, but we were thankful to have an elevator in the building. The staff at was awesome as well. We will definately be back to visit again."

"Love Emerald Towers West!
Overall, we enjoyed our stay in ETW 4003. The location and proximity to the beach is unbeatable. The unit was clean upon arrival and had all the necessities needed for a week on the beach. I would recommend this unit and location to anyone considering this property and unit. My only complaint would be the condition of the pull-out sofa bed. It was in terrible condition to say the least and should not be considered as an area suitable for guests to sleep. We had to buy an air mattress to put on top of the existing mattress. Otherwise, you could feel the bars underneath because the springs were broken and the mattress was too thin."
Jun 03, 2015 - Erika D., Plano, TX
"Beautiful beach!!
Loved these condos! Had a fantastic time. Quick and easy pick up on key code, but got lost on the way to the condo. Loved how quiet the area and the beach was. Not crowed at all. But with that we did have to drive a lot to go do anything. Ended up going into Destin for just about everything, which was a 10-15 minute drive. But the quietness of the area was a good tradeoff."

We were a bit disappointed with the check-in procedures- we were not aware of the possibility of not being able to get into our condo at the 4pm check in time. We did however enjoy our stay in 4003.

"Our Review
My wife and I totally enjoyed the rental. It is true that one gets what one pays for. I want to thank those at the office who were so very helpful and kind to us, especially the very kind British lady who allowed me to print my airline boarding passes from her computer.
The beach view was superb as was the balcony where I spent time to watch the sun come up in the morning and go down in the evening. Thank you so very much for your personal touch to make this so very enjoyable.
I would however like to offer some suggestions about how to improve things some but would rather do this by email. So, if you are interested, please email me. Thank you."

"great condo!
My vacation rental experience was really smooth,I booked the place online on a Sunday afternoon and the following Monday morning I heard from the friendly staff, the customer service was always great. I absolutely loved the condo ,also loved the fact that the actuall resort wasn't so big so it felt like we had our own private beach , when most of the resorts were huge and were full of people. The condo is really cute , great location and just enough space for us. Will defenely book this place again . "

"Brooks and Shorey more than unprofessional!
We arrived early and stopped in to see if the room was ready. They said it wasn't but they would call us when it was. We left and went to get a drink and enjoy the beach. We received a call around 3:15 pm to say our room was ready for check in. We returned to the office to check in. The ladies working seemed unorganized and confused. They checked us in and handed us one key. We asked for another and they said they would try to get one. (which we never received) we left and started towards the condo but received a call that our room was in fact not ready. They said that it was still dirty and might possibly have maintance issues, and that may have to move to another room. So we turned back around and headed back to the office. We were then told that there were no other rooms they could offer us and that it would be ready in another 1 1/2 hours. We left and irritated and annoyed that they were so unorganized and made no apologies for their mistake. We would have been fine checking in at 5:00pm orignially but for them to call us and tell us the room was ready and then go back and forth was very unprofessional.We will not be using this property management again!"

Emerald Towers was everything we hoped for in a much needed getaway trip. Brooks and Shorey was excellent....explained everything...and did everything they said in their ad.

"Possiblty the coldest Feb in Florida on record! BURRRR
Loved the condo. However, the couches both need to be replaced. Cushions are worn out no support left. The pool heater couldn't keep up. I came to swim and was VERY limited in the times I could go in. The water was so cold all of the time. My last complaint of course was the replacement of the tile. The sound was deafening. Luckily it only lasted a few days and then we left. I felt it was very unfair to perform work like that while we had paid to stay. This work should be done when only owners are present. Overall I m very happy with the experience but will rent a unit with an indoor pool next time."

It sounded as if they were rearranging their furniture nightly around 10pm-midnight. The neighbor next to that (still above us) had a son who decided to run everywhere he went inside the condo nightly until long after we retired for the evening. There was also a fireworks display just outside our room twice and the trash was left on the beach for the next day. Upon check out, the people above us (who looked to be too young to stay there according to your age rule) were spitting and throwing food items from the fifth floor to their friends in the parking lot as we were loading our vehicle. None of these problems reflect poorly on Brookes and Shorey but last year as we stayed at the Gulf Dunes, these problems were not occurring. We WILL stay with your company again, but we may stick with the Gulf Dunes location. "

"beautiful condo
The condo was so nice and clean. Everything we needed for our family of 5. Our younger children loved the bunk beds and the bedroom was so comfortable. The pool stayed crystal clear and clean, which is hard in the middle of the summer tourist season. The people who put out the beach chairs are so nice and friendly. We had an awesome stay!"

"June Grass Disaster
Water was full of June Grass and the beach smelled bad. Every time you got in the water you were covered in the mess. The water looked muddy not blue green like the pictures. The condo was good but the one elevator stayed tied up so much that we were forced to take the stairs most of the time. "

We did get stuck out on the balcony after hours and our sweet neighbors let us borrow a phone to call your after hours number....we left a message and after five hours we had to call 911 and a sweet cop opened our door with a credit card. That was just after we arrived and zero alcohol was involved. When two hours had past the next door, friends by now,gave us beer. Whew!!!"

"The Best Vacation Ever
We had the best vacation ever but if I could change one thing, I would make the beach easier to get to. You had to go to the other side of the building to get to the beach area. If there were access in the middle of the building, that would make everything superb. Other than that, it is wonderful. The absolute best vacation in the world. I have totally recommended to our friends and coworkers."

"Ft Walton Beach Vacation 2007
We have been to Florida several times but this vacation was special; my son and I we were attending the Pickos Water Ski School which has been a life long dream. At the time my wife had a broken leg so hotel accommodations for all of us had to be perfect and perfect they were.
We had seen the Brooks and Shorey name from previous visits staying in hotels. So we surfed the Brooks and Shorey site, found a condo to rent, made reservations online, received a prompt return phone call about a question we had and a package in the mail with all the information needed for our stay. This was important because we were arriving at night around midnight. It couldn't have been more convenient.
The condo was large, full kitchen, we had a master bedroom and our son chose to sleep on the sofa and see the ocean when he woke up instead of sleeping in the bunk beds. The internet connection worked great allowing me to check emails and use the internet. There were games in the TV cabinet to play. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals, basically it had all the comforts of home.
The location was perfect, Okaloosa Island. It was quiet, family oriented (no noisy young partying college student-one of the main reason we chose Brooks and Shorey), clean and very well maintained. It was easy to get to and from the beach, even with my wife's broken leg.
The only other interaction we had with Brooks and Shorey staff was at checkout time which took maybe 5 minutes. We had a number to call if we needed assistance but never had to use it.
This vacation was a 10 in our book and I would highly recommend Brooks and Shorey to find vacation accommodations. We were planning to do it again this year for spring break but conflicts prevented us from doing so, hopefully next year."
