This condo was perfect for us and the location was great too. Right on the beach and not overcrowded even on the 4th of July. The unit was clean and exactly as described online with an incredible view. We were sad to leave and will definitely be coming back to stay here again.

This was our 4th stay at Gulf Dunes and our first stay in #514. We loved it! The 2 bathrooms/2 showers are a great bonus and having a washer/dryer is always appreciated! I liked the many places to hang up towels! It had everything we needed and we liked it so much, we booked for next year! Thank you for another fantastic stay!

We had a wonderful stay at GD514. We spent a lot of time enjoying the spectacular view of the Gulf. We intended to dine out, but the view was so beautiful we ordered a lot of take-out to enjoy the amazing view. The condo was clean and was ready for an early check-in. Our only suggestion is to replace the bedroom carpet with solid flooring such as tile or laminate. I feel that the carpet doesn't clean as well and isnt up to the same standards as the rest of the condo.

Reviewer Comments:
Our trip to Okaloosa provided much needed relaxation. The condo was equipped with everything we needed for our week long stay. The beach access was wonderful and the pool area was clean. The only set back we had was the group that stayed over the weekend overtook not only the pool but the entire outdoor atmosphere after 6:30 each night with their party. It is clesrly posted in multiple areas that loud behavior is not permitted but three of our evenings were spent surrounded by a house party that involved multiple units below 514 and their ridiculously loud music. The world is rough and I don’t like to be a complainer but the signs do no good. Aside from this our stay was very enjoyable

Check-in was a breeze! The condo was exactly as pictured and very clean. The neighborhood was quiet and pleasant. Our view of the beach from the balcony was so beautiful! Would love to visit again.

We received a call an hour early to check in. The condo was spotless and very well stocked. We enjoyed our 3 days on the beach and took advantage of the beach chair service each day.
A great place all around.
Thanks for a great visit. We will definitely return.

We spend the vast majority of our time on the balcony, so having quality furnishings is a big deal to us.The agency communication was excellent. We will definitely rent from Brooks and Shorey again.
