A great beachfront choice

This condo was exactly as described in the listing. 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.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Biggest issue was that the wi-fi was out for several days but TV still worked...good thing we had unlimited data!Condo overall was good although not stocked with items most others are such as salt and pepper....we were prepared as emails notified of this. However, it would have been better if we did t have to drag these items along on vacation! Location was amazing! Condo was cleaner than others we’ve stayed at and that was important. Everything was as expected. Good value for the price for spring break.

Exactly what we were looking for!

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: This condo has everything you could need for a beach trip! If you like to cook instead of going out everynight it has all the utensels, pans and bowls you could need. Not just a spatula, 1 knife and a large spoon. Plenty of towels and wash cloths. The two free beach chairs are just amazing to have. All you have to do is pack a cooler and sunscreen and go. Let me say the the pictures of the view are why we chose this condo and they do not do it justice! You can sit on that private balcony and just stare at it forever. They customer service is amazing as well. We made a complete "duh" move after checking out and Jessica and MaryAnn were nothing less than amazing when helping us out! We highly recommend this company and condo!

Honeymoon

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: 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

Excellent beach condo!

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.

Another Week in Paradise!

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 just stayed at Gulf Dunes #514 again this year. We've rented this unit several times. You have to book it well in advance, otherwise you may not get the dates you want. It is always clean and well maintained. The location is great. There are so many restaurants nearby so you don't have to cross over into the Destin chaos unless you just want to. I wish they did not allow smoking on the balconies though because invariably, we get a chain smoker beside us, below us or nearby which makes it difficult to enjoy sitting out on the balcony. That is our only complaint. I'm not sure if they have rules against smoking on the balconies but if they do, they are not enforced. Of course the rental agency has no control over this nor is this a reflection on the unit itself but it is annoying for vacationers that want to sit on the balcony and enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean right in front of you.
