We loved the beach. The unit was nicely decorated with a large porch. The kitchen and baths are pretty dated. The master bed and bathrooms were a good size. Be warned that the bed is really soft. The bedroom with bunks is closet sized (no room for a suitcase) but the beds were comfy and there was a small dresser and TV. The kitchen was clean, but the two showers were not. Management was quick to respond to this situation. We appreciated the personal delivery of an important package to our condo.

Brooks and Shorey is amazing. Completely automated check-in/check-out process, clean rooms, and helpful staff available to answer all my questions. My family had a perfect vacation thanks to the folks at Brooks and Shorey.
5.0 / 5.0
We are a family of 6 and it can be difficult to find vacation properties that comfortably fit our entire family. This property definitely fit the bill. We had stayed at another unit in Gulf Dunes last year so we had an idea of what to expect and it did not disappoint.
The cleanliness was good, two minor complaints was some of the dishes had some food still stuck on and we found a sock under a bed that was not ours. Everything else seemed clean and fresh. The garbage shoot on each floor by the elevators was convenient for bringing the trash out and there was a broom/dustpan and vacuum to tidy while we were there. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook/eat during our stay. They had plenty of bath towels/hand towels/wash cloths.
A minor complaint/recommendation for the management. Monitor the beach chairs better. There were many groups who took more than the 2 allotted beach chairs and several days we were not able to get chairs on the beach as they were ‘reserved’ by 9am, and spent much of the day with a towel sitting on them with no people around.
Included were 2 rolls of paper towel, 2 packets of dishwasher powder, 2 rolls of toilet paper in each bathroom.
Recommendations on things to bring: extra toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher soap, laundry detergent and dryer sheets, hand soap, spray cleaner and/or Lysol wipes. Salt/pepper/condiments/spices you will need. They had lots of extra coffee filters in the unit.

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.

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 Brooks and Shorey Resorts were wonderful!

Great for families!
We loved our stay! The condo was clean and stocked with all the basic supplies. Maintenance was quick to respond to the chirping smoke detector and internet calls. We were given a new router within a couple hours after it couldn’t be resolved. We loved being right on the beach and having the beach service was so nice! The pool isn’t huge but was great for the kids when the ocean was too rough for swimming. 7 of us slept comfortably in the condo. We’d 100% recommend this condo and will be back again next year!

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!!

Awesome!!
The condo is just as described. The condo was spotless and was decorated very beachy (just what I was looking for)! The only thing I would change is to put blackout curtains in the guest bedroom and bunk room to block out the lights from the walk way. We took advantage of the Dolphin Cruise, and it was a blast! Next time I'll be going snorkeling too. It was a wonderful trip! Thank you🏖️

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.

Breathtaking view
This property did not disappoint! The view was stunning; with the sea oats, sand and ocean! We spent every evening in the deck. You can watch the fishing pier at night, it’s lit up. The sunrise and sunset, breathtaking! The condo was perfect for our family of 5, 2 adults and 3 teenagers. There was plenty of room for us to have our own space. The condo was equipped with everything we could possibly need. Overall it was a great experience. We would definitely stay at this property again!!

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!

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!

This was overall a great place to stay! The only thing negative I have to say about it was the mattress in the guest bedroom was not comfortable at all. Loved the convenience of having a washer and dryer in the room! Location was definitely great! Only a couple of minutes from restaurants and activities!

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 :)

Gulf Dunes 208 - July 2019
The condo was very clean and the view was amazing. Sadly, the pictures were much nicer than the condo itself . There was a gaping tear in one of the chairs and all the furniture had water stains on it. I did make the manager aware of this right away. The bunk "room" is not a room at all nor something you should count on as useable space. It is so tiny you cannot even open the door all the way. A person cannot walk in and move much less two people. The ladder to the top bunk is not attached to the bed - it is laid up against it haphazardly. In a space like this the bunks would have better placed and more useable in the hallway rather than shoved into nothing more than a closet space. The master bed was not comfortable. Like most sleeper sofas, the mattress was thin and uncomfortable with crumbs all in it that we had to clean out. The kitchen counter tops were scratched and had a raised uneven seam between the stove and sink. The stove was an older one that had tin foil lining the stove eyes rather than the nicer glass top ones. I have stayed at many Brooks and Shorey resorts and they were absolutely amazing however this one fell short. I reported the latter complaints as well but not in enough time for them to do anything I was told. I was told had I of told them early in the week they "may" could have done something however a credit was not in order. Unless they would have moved me to a different unit altogether (which I doubt they could have the week of July 20-27) nothing else could have solved the issue. The condition of the condo is not in line with the rental price. I will still use Brooks and Shorey at their other properties I have frequented in the past but never Gulf Dunes again. I was overall disappointed.
