"Enjoyed Gulf Dunes 208
Very Nice, Comfortable"
Aug 21, 2024 - Larry K., Seneca, SC
"Beautiful spot
Gulf Dune has a beautiful spot on the beach. The balcony was spacious and had great views. We enjoyed the chair service on the beach, though you do need to grab a spot early. The living/dining area was comfortable. The bathrooms and kitchen are very dated, not what one would think of as “remodeled” as in the description. The master bed is lumpy and soft. The double room had nice space and furnishings. The bunk “room” would be good for little ones. It wasn’t as great for a teen as it is the size of a closet. One bunk was used for the suitcase as there isn’t room on the floor. We liked that there were restaurants within walking distance and took advantage of free golf and a couple boat rides. That was a nice bonus."

"Great week!
It was a great week at this condo. What I loved the most was that it wasn’t a big complex so no fighting for elevators or parking. It’s right on the beach so that made it easier! Close to my fav restaurant Stewbys too. I definitely plan on staying here again. "

"Great Oceanfront Relaxation!
Gulf Dunes is a great condo property and unit 208 was clean and well stocked. We enjoyed our stay and did not have any issues. The property staff were helpful and friendly and the beach was just steps away! The amenities provided by were wonderful!"

"Beachfront heaven !
Loved the location of the condo!! Spectacular views from the balcony. Very short walk to the stairs or elevator and then to the beach. Loved that the chairs and umbrella was included. The condo had everything we needed as far as kitchenware and everything worked. The furniture was very nice and there was plenty of room for all 6 of us to use drawers and closets with space leftover. The master shower and king mattress could use an update. The mattress wasn’t horrible, just not as firm as I have at home. Parking was close and always easy to find a spot. Close to Publix for groceries. We chose to eat in Destin every night but there are places close as well! We would definitely stay here again! We were happy with this condo!!"

"Spring Break 201
Great location, beautiful beaches. Love Gulf Dunes and would definitely stay again. The only issue we had regarding ammenities was that we were unaware we needed to bring our own kitchen towels, wash rags and hot pads. That was not included in the “what to bring” info. Our unit was not supplied with those items. Overall, unit was very clean as was the entire complex. Heated pool was wonderful since Mother Nature didn’t fully cooperate during our stay. "

"2021 okaloosa island getaway
We had a wonderful vacation. Gulf dunes 208 is nice! The view was beautiful and we loved being able to walk right out to the beach. The pool was nice to use when the ocean was too rough. We will definitely be back. "

"Summer Vacation
We enjoyed staying at Gulf Dunes 208. The kitchen was well-stocked and there were plenty of towels in the bathrooms. Gulf Dunes is located in a great spot and we loved the 2nd floor so that we didn't have to use the elevator. The only suggestion that I would make is to update the bathrooms, but it was a Great Condo!"

"Heavenly
Gulf Dunes 208 was a heavenly place to get away. The condo is a beautiful teal color and very attractively decorated. We had 4 adults and 2 children in our group (my husband and I and our kids and my husband’s parents). The bedrooms fit us perfectly. My in-laws stayed in the room with the king, my husband and I and our 9 year old stayed in the room with two full beds and my 14 year old daughter loved the bunk room. The view from the balcony was perfect, it felt like we were right on the beach. The room was clean and well equipped. We ordered takeout from nearby restaurants and ate in each night. Stewby’s is across the street and it was so good, we ate there twice! The dining area was spacious and it was great to be able to gaze at the ocean while having dinner. The two pools were not crowded and we were able to visit them several times during our stay. The complimentary beach set up made relaxing on the beach easy and carefree. We rented an extra set up each day and it was very affordable. We enjoyed the movie rental kiosk in the parking deck, it was a nice way to relax after a day on the beach. The rental company was very easy to work with. We will without a doubt rent this condo again! "

"Beach vacation
Had a great time in this condo, it was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our week stay. I would definitely rent this condo again. We could see dolphins swimming in the ocean from the balcony. View was beautiful. "

"Jessica M from Columbus, OH. Super cute beachy condo!
We really enjoyed our stay at Gulf Dunes 208. The condo was decorated very beachy and we loved it! The bed in the master was super comfy! The bunk room is small but serves its purpose. The view is fantastic! Would have liked to have a few more bath towels and toilet paper provided, but other than that it was an excellent stay :)"

Location great, beach is not crowded as in Destin, been here many times and will continue to stay here."

"Girls Trip
We have always heard about the beautiful beaches in Destin and decided we needed to go. A friend recommended Okaloosa Island to us because it was a lot quieter and they were right. Exactly what we were looking for!
Unfortunately the week before we were leaving we were contacted by Brooks and Shorey to let us know that work would be done on the building while we were there and there was a possibility that we would not have access to our balcony from 9-5. They did offer for us to stay at a discount or move to another condo but could not guarantee where we would be at. We decided to stay put and take a chance. Well the workers were on our balcony but of course we were on the beach from 9-5 so it wasn’t that big of a deal except for the noise.
Marianne with Brooks and Shorey was great to work with and called us about 3pm to let us know that our condo was ready and did break the news that the workers were there. She quickly reminded us that we had great weather in the forecast for our stay and that the water was super calm!
The condo was clean and the beds were okay comfort wise. Perfect size for 3 girls and could maybe do a 4th and still be comfortable. A burner on the stove did not work, we let Marianne know and it was fixed by the time we got back from the beach. Would definitely recommend Gulf Dunes 208 and Brooks and Shorey. "

Had a great time. Would love to come back again in the fall. Condo was very nice and spacious. No wait time to go out and eat."
Oct 18, 2018 - Virginia H., Mt. Vernon, Illinois
".
It was very crowded but it is a bigger complex then what we normally stay at.. The young men working the chairs on the beach did not ask one time if we wanted our umbrellas moved, not sure if that is in their job description but they have always done this over the 15 plus years we have been coming to the beach. In the guest bathroom it looked like black mold above the shower head on the ceiling. "
Aug 15, 2018 - , Downsville, LA
"Great view at a great price
The unit has a spectacular view of the gulf. It was nice and clean. The management company was on the first floor and was always very helpful. (they are located right before you take the elevators up)"

"So so
I know the cleaning was sped up because we were coming from a different unit, but we found trash under the coffee table and overall it seemed a bit unclean. Room 401 was spotless though! Also, we were kept awake every night by the neighbors above us."
Jul 19, 2018 - Kristina Y., Austin, TX
"Nice and great location
Unfortunately we had to leave early due to the storm. But between Thursday and Sunday afternoon we had a lot of fun. The unit needed to be clean better special the bathrooms. Thank you"

"Will not stay with Brooks and Shorey again.
Would stay at Gulf Dunes in a unit or managed by Brooks and Shorey, all staffing bend the truth or changed there rules and regulations with every different staff member I spoke with starting in Feb 2017 when booked, even spoke with an owner which was very rude and spoke down about his staff, which was very sad, feel sorry for the employees that have to work for him! Only reason we started with Brooks and Shorey was because we came for a wedding 2 nights and the bride had book with them. "

Nov 10, 2016 - , Peachtree City, GA
"Great vacation
Loved our stay. One suggestion, several vacationers had the same problem we did trying to check in. We ran around crazy trying to find the lock box to get our after hours instructions. If the words, located on the front desk, we could have been checked in a hour and a half earlier. Also, the master bed mattress was extremely broken down and caused la k of sleep the entire trip, it was so severe. The toaster was a fire hazard, as it does not automatically eject the toast and you can't push it up either. Had to unplug it to get it out. That almost caused a fire. The unit was very clean but as cute as it was, it could stand some cleaning and painting, a new master comforter, the lock fixed on master bedroom door, etc. I would like to stress again that cleanliness was not the issue. Just maintenance and a little money spent. Pups have made our stay perfect. The view was good and accommodations were adequate."

I enjoy using rentals to find a condo on Santa Rosa BLVD in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. This year we experienced issues with our unit. The AC was not cooling the bedrooms at night, and the guest bathroom tub had drainage issues."

"Cozy with amazing views!
We had such a great time here! The room was clean and cozy and had all the kitchen items you need! The views were wonderful and the walk to the beach was really fast and easy! Only downside was during our stay the elevator went out at check out so we were hiking tons of luggage down the stairs (exercise never killed anyone) but they were in the process of fixing it so the property management stayed on top of the issue! Thanks again for such a wonderful stay! We will definitely be coming back next season!"

"Great beachfront condo
Our family stayed at Gulf Dunes for a National dance competition held at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. The location and view of the beach was fantastic. The condo was spacious, had everything we needed including a washer & dryer. It's great to go home from vacation with clean laundry!! The only issue I experienced was the condo wasn't ready upon check in time. "

"Spring Break 2016
The condo was very clean and well appointed. The bed in the Master was soft and while I was ok, my husband didn't sleep at all...could use a new mattress...
The staff was wonderful and helpful, very easy to work with.
I would come back, but not to this unit if the mattress isn't replaced."

"Beautiful view
Mattress was very soft and sheets were very hard and starched so was not comfortable Kitchen was very well stocked and condo was very clean except for mold around patio doors. Quiet and friendly, loved the golfing and free DVD's. Beach was clean and chairs comfortable. Furniture was new and comphy would love to go back in warmer weather. "

"Awesome as Always
We stayed for 7 nights in October and it was amazing. The condo had plenty of room, was just as pictured,was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We have used Brooks and Shorey for several years now and are never disappointed. Our beach service was excellent!!! You just can't beat the blue water and white sandy beaches. The dolphins put on a fantastic show for us.Thanks Brooks and Shorey! See you next year!"

"Condo 208
Thank you so much to the new owners of 208! We've stayed there for 4 yrs now every Sept and always love out stay. Your rental is so clean, neat and well equipped. The only issue we have are the mattresses need to be updated as they are sunken in the middle and are uncomfortable. Other than that, we are very happy with our stay. Gulf Dunes is our favorite place!"

Over all I was very satisfied with our location, the condition of the unit, and the amount of space. I would book here again. "
Aug 28, 2015 - Bryan L., Round Rock, TX
"MORE THAN WE ANTICIPATED
The pictures do not do justice to the sense of size and space when you enter the unit. Easily accommodated 6 adults and a few little ones. Lovely balcony view with dolphins to see each morning. Nice beach procedures where the staff saves your umbrella and chairs for you even if you leave the beach for hours. Just leave your towel on a chair. Incredible beaches. Well located for all attractions. Mattress updates needed in some beds. Only real issue was all grills are charcoal which makes for long waits if you want a grill. Going to gas grills would be a big help. Nonetheless highly recommended and a superb value."

"Fantastic
So enjoyed our stay at Gulf Dunes condo 208. Clean, beautiful view of beach, nice balcony with view of pool as well. Plenty of room, not that we were inside much. I do think it is time to put new mattress on all the beds though. Quiet except for people moving chairs above us. Carpet would help that. Would definitely stay here again. "

The views from the balcony are perfect. The condo complex is nice and clean. The only issue was, the ceiling fan in the living room did not work nor did the light or the light in the corner. I checked the breakers and they were fine. I did not call the front desk to complain"

"Family Vacation
Everything about the rental was great. Good size for the amount of people we had. Great location (not heavy on traffic Right on the beach. Only complaint is a very large patch of mold above the master shower. Contacted management and they took care of it, but it concerned me that they claimed the condo was just cleaned. This was not something that could have simply been overlooked. It was a 3 inch by 8 inch section on the ceiling. Other than that - all was great! I'd stay again. "
Aug 20, 2014 - Susan M., San Antonio, Tx
"Great Place
Great place for the price. The decor was outdated but it didn't matter to my family. We care more about cleanliness and accommodations which were both acceptable. The bunk bed room was extremely small. It did give us extra sleeping room but there was not any space for baggage. Overall, we would recommend the unit and enjoyed our stay at Gulf Dunes. "

The property was adequate. We had an issue with the second bathroom and it was resolved very quickly. The furnishings and bedding definitely need to be updated. I did find the pool area very small for the size of the property. But overall it was good for the cost."

"Great location
We had a great 9 day stay here. There were a few minor maintenance issues, but when I reported them to the front desk, someone came and fixed them very quickly. The condo is right on the ocean and has a beautiful view. Bring scissors though, I couldn't find any. The rental comes with a free amenities package from ASI. In addition to the free golf, scuba diving, etc, they offer free round trip transportation to the airport for up to 3 or 4 people with your reservation. The management at the condo don't seem to know that this benefit is offered, but it is on the paperwork they gave me. My sister got the free transportation to the airport on her way home, and she only paid a required $10 tip. If you call about it and they don't know what you are talking about, ask them for the phone number for ASI and go directly through them."

First time traveling on Christmas Day for a family that usually stays in for the Holidays. Great location, comfortable and clean with plenty of room for people to spread out a bit. I'd come back in a heartbeat. Owner was very helpful as was manangement staff - even taking my call on Christmas Day when I couldn't figure out how to open the lock box."

"Wish we could have stayed longer, one week wasn't enough!!!
Absolutely LOVED the spacious balcony, and spent many hours there. Sunrises with coffee and watching the dolphins play and sunsets with a glass of wine and relaxing. Since we ate a lot of great food while in Florida, the 3rd floor was perfect for taking the steps and burning off some of those calories! The beds were very comfortable so we had most restful sleep at night and a few naps during the day. Mary Ann, who was in the office when we arrived and most of the week we were there was awesome! She was very helpful, and always with a smile. We had a very pleasant experience while staying at the Gulf Dunes. Thanks to all responsible!!!"

"Medium for Gulf Dunes
We love staying at Gulf Dunes. The air in the master was not working, so it was pretty uncomfortable. The key lock at the door had to be worked and worked to get in. I reported both, and nothing was done. As a review before, there is mold in the master shower. The view is awesome! "

We have stayed in this unit quite a few years back( 8?), the decor is the same, even the same bedding. The kitchen cabints felt sticky and one of the beds had stains on the sheets.

Was not too happy with condition of the property this year, therefore, next year we will be staying at Island Princes. We still are using B&S as our agent as we think they do a great job. Owner of unit needs to update the inside with some new appliances, furniture, etc."

"Good value
All in all for the price the stay was good. The good - Great location - walking distance to restaurants, access to beach, short drive to local shopping district. Spacious floorplan. Good amenities for families - heated pool, video rentals, discount on dolphin cruise. The not so good - The unit was not very clean upon arrival - dust & hair in bathroom, glass table in living room dirty, lamps/bedroom furniture very dusty, musty smell in entry way. Room with bunkbed was good for small child - maybe accordian door would be better fit since regular door ran into bunkbed. Sliding door in living room was missing screen. Ceiling fans a little worse for wear. Kitchen sink was leaking but management replaced within an hour of notification."

"condo just too dirty
.the floors and carpet in our condo were very dirty, and our toilets and showers had mold. our sofa was also dirty. condo last year at gulf dunes was very clean, so cleaning service this year seems to be the reason. management was very professional and helpful with other problems we had like clogged drain, dryer repair, front door repair, broken appliance.
view from condo was great and beach time was also."

We have always stayed at Gulf Dunes so I knew what to expect and knew the property. I was however disappointed in the cleanliness of the condo. It was dirty. I dont think the floors had been cleaned at all since the last guests. There were toe nails on the bathroom floor. You could see dirt on the ceiling fans and it just wasn't very clean over all."

We had a group of seven. The condo had plenty of space and the location was great. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a very friendly lady at the front desk. She was very helpful with questions we needed answered. We had a great time and will definitely stay at Gulf Dunes again. "
Jun 19, 2012 - , Thackerville, ok
"good but could be better
We had sufficient space,but the entry rug was not glued down in one corner, a few busted drawers in front bedroom. Need to stock a few more spoons in kitchen. Had to buy a scrubber and liquid dish soap.
Tues - Friday morning we had to look at other people's tents, coolers and chairs out on the beach in the morning - SPOILED the View - There should be a policy regarding this and it should be enforced. we are paying for our "view"! Also, owners could add a TV guide - I made my own. All appliances worked fine. Overall we had no major complaints and would stay at Gulf Dunes again, although maybe in a different unit. Families in 417 and 517 had much more updated furnishings, games,books,nice hangers, nicer larger flat screen TVs etc and a side balcony view. Those units were very nice but cost more.
Also our family members in the other two units were in an entirely different building so it was not convenient to get there - down our two flights of stairs, under the garage, up the 5 flights to their units. There is an elevator though, but we did not know we would be in an entirely separate building.
Also, they had garage parking and we did not. It is not a major thing, just stuff we noticed - their units had more amenities than ours - so if that's important to you check it out. A good thing was the elevators and the carts for loading and unloading bags and groceries. we couln't have done it otherwise."

"GULF DUNES ROOM # 208
WE HAVE STAYED AT THE GOLF DUNES FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS. WE HAD THE WORST STAY IN ROOM 208, DUE TO THE MATRESSES IN BOTH BEDROOMS. ON THE KING WE ACTUALLY MADE THE BED AND I SLEPT ON THE BOTTOM END AND MY HUSBAND ACROSS THE HEADBOARD AREA. STILL NOT MUCH RELIEF, STILL A BACK KILLER, NOT MUCH SLEEP. THE OTHER MATRESS IN THE 2ND BEDROOM WAS FLIPPED BUT DID NOT CHANGE THINGS MUCH. SHELLY & CHRIS VASSUER, OWNERS OF 307, OUR FRIENDS, TOLD US TO MAKE SURE WE LET YOU KNOW ABOUT THE ROOM. ALSO IT WAS NOT CLEANED PROPERLY, SOME DISHES & UTENSILS HAD TO BE WASHED BEFORE USING. SOME GARBAGE ITEMS WERE ALSO FOUND IN 2ND BEDROOM. OVERALL DID NOT SEEM CLEAN.
