My husband and I rented the condo for a vacation with our young adult children. There were 7 of us in total and the condo was spacious, clean and had a great view. We really liked the beach umbrella/chair service as well.

We enjoyed the view from the balcony and the building itself was quiet. The beach service was the slowest to set up in the area however. Nice kitchen and utensils for use.
We have stayed here before & always feel welcomed, safe & relaxed! Thanks for the little things like dish soap & washing machine soap!

Reviewer Comments:
The condo itself is great, but the location is phenomenal, excellent view and there is a nice little bar restaurant at the hotel next door. Easy walking to quite a few things, which is good because there is a major road construction project just down the street. The beach service guy appeared to be the slowest to set up of all the ones we could see, but otherwise very nice.
The condo was clean, great location, and wonderful view. We enjoyed the spacious balcony in the mornings and evenings. Only complaint was the refrigerator wasn't cooling like it should, and we had to throw out some items we bought at the store. When I reported the issue to the front desk it was fixed in no time. We will stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
The condo was very clean and had what we needed for a nice stay. I would suggest that screens be put on the sliding doors so that they can be left open during the night to listen to the ocean waves. Also, for us non techy people, instructions on how to use the TV remotes.
Unit was extremely clean and the kitchen is well stocked for all your cooking needs. The unit looks exactly like the photos. The unit's beds were comfortable and the rooms spacious. One King, two doubles and twin bunk beds in the third small bedroom. It was super convenient to have the washer and dryer in the unit. There were plenty of bath towels. The grounds were well maintained. Any question that I had were promptly answered both by email and by phone. It is a short walk to a restaurant and the food store and liquor store is just a short ride away. Sunsets on the balcony were spectacular. The unit is located over sand dunes for great ocean views. It is a wonderful condo and I would not hesitate to recommend this unit!

Reviewer Comments:
This was my first time using Brooks and Shorey and I had a great experience during the whole process. When I first was looking at properties I was able to speak to someone over the phone that was very helpful. Brooks and Shorey provided great communication throughout the process and they checked in on us upon our arrival with all the necessary info we needed for the condo. We enjoyed the condo, there were some minor cosmetic things but nothing that caused any problems. The condo was very spacious and was clean upon our arrival. The couches looked a little aged but we just put a sheet over them and it was fine. The master bed wasn't the most comfortable bed but nothing can compare to your own bed at home. There was more than enough silverware, plateware, utensils, etc. that we needed. There was a standard coffee machine and a keurig type machine so we were impressed with both of these. The stainless steel appliances all worked great. The view of the beach from the balcony was just gorgeous and we loved looking out there every morning while eating breakfast or drinking our coffee. I would recommend Gulf Dunes and we had a great experience with Brooks and Shorey so I would work with them again.
Entire process of renting, stay, and check out was great!
Great for a family. Very clean and quiet condo with great location to beach, Food. And activities for the family.

Cute condo with all of the amenities. Almost a straight shot out to the beach. The company was very easy to work with. (Take your own beach towels and cash for extra beach chairs)
Condo was everything we expected! Plenty of room and great location to restaurants and grocery. Weather could have been better, but we took our chances in March. Will definitely stay here again.
This property was absolutely perfect! Very clean, with Newer and modern appliances- plenty of room for the family- and a beautiful oceanfront view. We plan on returning and Definitely recommend for people seeking the perfect vacation rental
Condo was as described, the mattress was hard. There were chip crumbs in the pull out sofa bed. No pizza cutter but had a pizza pan which was odd. Overall enjoyed the stay.
