Our party of 6 slept comfortably without ever feeling cramped or in each others space. The location was perfect and close to everything without the chaos of being in the middle of Destin. Beach access and pool are fabulous. The two bedrooms are spacious and the bunk room perfect for small kids or tweens. Condo has a great homey feel! Incredible view! 10/10 - would stay here again!

Wonderful Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved it so much, we rebooked for later in the summer. It was clean, efficient, and perfect for our family. The location was perfect--on the beach, directly across from Stewby's and the ice cream shop and puttputt so didn't have to move the car some days! We had no issues and enjoyed the stay.

Great spring getaway

The gulf dunes was an excellent choice for us with a great view, well appointed accomodations and close proximity to area resturants. The condo was tastefully decorated and was comfortable and clean. The only negative was a screen door that would jump the track leading to the balcony. The management on site tried to repair it but I think it may need something more involved than a quick fix. The beds were comfortable and cable tv in each bedroom in addition to the living room was most appreciated. We had a lovely time and would highly recommend.

Gulf Dunes 608

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is on the top floor, so the view is awesome and there is no sound of movement from a condo above you. It was clean though somewhat dated. We weren’t there for the furniture though! We were there for the view and the proximity to the beach, and this condo was perfect in those aspects.

Perfect Location for our family

This was the perfect size and location for our family! The condo is clean and nicely decorated for the beach. We enjoyed that the bunk room is actually a small room with a door and not bunk beds in the hallway. The only complaint would be the mattress in the master. I think because there is nowhere else to sit in the room the edges of the bed have been sat on so much they sink pretty bad. I have a bad back so this probably impacted me more than it would most. We definitely plan to stay here again, but will bring a mattress pad next time.

Relaxing Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Gulf Dunes 608 was perfect - we arrived early and were able to get into our condo early. The condo was clean and very comfortable. Brooks and Shorey's office is in Gulf Dunes so we were greeted every day by Marianne - if we needed something or had questions she was there to answer them. The location was perfect - within walking distance to many restaurants and shopping. We were there for a relaxing vacation and we definitely were able to relax. I would recommend Gulf Dunes and Brooks and Shorey to anyone wanting to come to this area.

PERFECT SPOT FOR OUR FAMILY

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Gulf Dunes Condos, and Unit 608 was really nice! The unit itself was very clean and beautifully decorated. All appliance looked new, air, etc were functional. No issues experienced! The condominium complex is a favorite of ours for a few reasons. The ocean is just outside your balcony. The condo pool is below the balcony. So us adults can watch our older children (teens) from the comfort of the condo, if we desire. And the Ft Walton beach is not as crowded as other beaches. We love this place very much!!!

We enjoyed our stay here. It was easy to check in and the app we were sent was useful and helpful. The place was clean and spacious with the incredible view from the main room and primary bedroom. Having a dedicated parking spot in the garage right by the pool & beach access was a bonus. Having access to two chairs and an umbrella on the beach was also really nice. The beach was never crowded. The location was great. Right near The Boardwalk and the Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park. We spent time there one rainy day and it was perfect since most of it is covered. The large TV in the living room was great for catching the NBA finals and World Cup matches. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I reached out with one minor issue, the fridge said it needed a filter, someone came right away to replace it. I didn't expect that at allOverall, great location and service and the beach was beautiful!
