The unit was as it is shown and described. The unit was clean, there was plenty of towels for our stay (6 of us), and the view was amazing! We had a small issue with the washing machine and they were there right away taking care of the issue (on the weekend!). The property is conveniently located and easy driving distance (5 minutes) to a ton of different restaurants and little shops. The four star is for the facility itself is getting a little tired and looks tired. However the unit itself was nice.

Everything was as advertised and exceeded our expectations! The whole process was easy and efficient from booking to check-in. Every time I called with questions, someone answered. The app had everything we needed at our fingertips. The condo (Gulf Dunes 408) was absolutely wonderful and we would definitely come back again.

Great location, great views from the balcony! And super cute. Definitely could be cleaned better. The washer doesn’t spin and drain properly so you have to do the spin more than once with each wash, the water in the kitchen sink isn’t good at all, absolutely no pressure. And some dishes needed to be rewashed like they had been put away dirty. Also the refrigerator didn’t seem very cold but kept stuff cold enough it didn’t go bad. but the freezer was great so not sure if it was going out.

Overall we had a great experience staying in this condo! It’s beautifully decorated and the location is great. Our only complaint is there seemed to be water issues impacting the whole building (we had family staying in other units who experienced similar problems) the water in the kitchen sink barely worked unless you regularly took it apart while using to unclog the sand stuck in it. They offered to come fix it, but it worked with us messing with it and we didn’t want to give up beach time for a repair person to come by. There were also dirty dishes that had been put away as if they were clean which was annoying. The washing machine also doesn’t drain properly and you have to do an extra spin cycle with each wash. Like I said, overall it was a good experience and we’d stay here again.

Gulf Dunes

We have been coming to Ft Walton Beach and staying in Gulf Dunes for the past 14 years. We love the convenience to the beach, the direct patio views from the master bedroom and living room, the pools, and the convenience to Destin without the crowd. The two chairs and umbrella set up on the beach is awesome (thanks Dan!) We love the emerald water and white sand. This unit is absolutely beautiful with wonderful furniture and a fully stocked kitchen. Sunset Resort Rentals advertised as having a covered parking spot which was inaccurate. To date they have not offered compensation for the error. Covered parking spots are prime due to the occasional showers and overall safety for guests plus easy storage for beach items so they don't have to go up to the room. The grill area is charcoal and a nice addition for meal prep. Stewbys across the street is my favorite food while Publixs Grocery Store is across the bridge. Before Memorial Day the water is a little chilly. We will continue to enjoy this beautiful vacation area for many years to come.
