Nice condo

Enjoyed the condo. Clean. Laid out well. Extra bunk room came in handy. Great shower. Did have a few issues - condo advertisement stated unit came with a complimentary umbrella and 2 beach chairs - IT DOESN'T. Balcony could use a at least one more chair. Overall, nice unit.

Great location and beautiful beach views

Perfect setup for our family of 6! Right on the beach, easy access to boardwalk to get on the beach. AJ’s is walking distance and just a few miles away tons of more restaurants to choose from. Definitely would recommend!

Great location

Not too crowded area of the beach but close enough to restaurants and shops. Place has a light and airy feel right on the beach. There needs to be a curtain on the windows in the bunk room as the outdoor hallway light stays on all night making the room bright and difficult to sleep well.

Over all good

Overall the stay was good. I would say there wasn’t even a spatula so could use some checking and adding of kitchen supplies. Paint chipping all over could be taken care of. We like the location and that’s why we come! Emails and calls were good with detailed information!

Overall good but still lacking

We have stayed at this property for 12+ years but never this particular unit. We would not stay in this unit again. First issue was that when we originally booked there was chair service included like in many other units. When we arrived we were told this was no longer true. We contacted the property manager to inquire and were told we needed to produce photos of the property description of when we booked. Lesson learned we will do that from now on. The chair service ended up costing us an additional $200 out of pocket. The chair service owner was fantastic and worked with us to enjoy our stay despite issues with Vacasa. The room was mostly clean. However the area rugs were stained horribly. You could tell they once were light colored but now are almost dark gray with dirt and stains. Overall it was a nice room and mostly clean but due to our issues we will likely not book with Vacasa again nor stay in this unit. We will continue to stay at the property with other units and property booking managers.

The Good and The Bad

The good: The location is perfect and view is amazing. Beds are comfortable and unit was immaculate. The shower pressure is great! We loved that there were games in the drawer to play and that the WiFi worked. Love that there was a washer and dryer also with a laundry pod to use. The Bad: There is no early check in allowed. We asked and were told no. We sat in front of the room for 2 hours waiting. There was NO reason we couldn’t be allowed in early. The property management has bad communication. They were very rude and snippy. We were told we would only be provided 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom. We had to buy any other toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags. There is a sign at the beach that basically says Gulf Dunes guests feel free to use the chairs. We did and then were approached by the chair/umbrella police. They said the owners only pay for 2 chairs. They wanted $30 per person cash for the chairs and umbrellas. No thanks. Sign is mis-leading When we went to check out we were asked to do the dishes, take out the trash and to strip all the beds. I have never stayed anywhere where we have been asked to do all the housekeeping. We would gave left it clean, but shouldn’t be expected to when you pay a cleaning fee.

Nice Condo/Good deal for the Price

The condo is exactly as described and as pictured. We were pleasantly surprised at how much room we had. The space easily accommodated our party of 4 adults and 3 teens. The balcony was large and comfortable with a high top bistro table with 2 chairs and 2 plastic Adirondack chairs. The kitchen table had 4 chairs and a bench, so our group of 7 fit easily at the table. The kitchen was stocked with the basics. There was a regular coffee pot (basket filters) and a Keurig. Dishes were basic, and met the needs adequately. The condo was stocked with a roll of paper towels, 4 rolls of toilet paper, a small bottle of dish soap and 1 packet of dishwasher soap. There were plenty of towels and wash cloths. When we arrived, the internet and tv were not working. We called, and within 20 minutes the maintenance team arrived and had us up and running. The pool is small, however was not crowded. The boardwalk to the beach was nice. The included chairs and umbrella was a nice plus. The are put out each morning at 8 am and are first come, first serve. They are brought in at 6 pm. Cons: the condo could have been cleaner. The floors were still sandy and our feet were black witching a few minutes of walking barefoot. It needs a thorough deep cleaning. There was some sand and dirt in the corners. We had to plunge the kitchen sink right after we arrived. We got a lot of plastic and garbage that previous guests had put down the drain. THE BIG CON: the beds in this condo were very uncomfortable. For this reason, I would not stay here again. You could tell the mattresses were inexpensive, and you could hear the springs squeak and bouncy with any movement. They are what you would find in an inexpensive hotel.

Wonderful condo

I want to tell you all the wonderful things about this property! First the location is one of the best, Okaloosa Island is so beautiful, white sand gorgeous sunsets and lots of delicious restaurants to chose from. The view of the Gulf from this particular condo balcony is one of the best I have ever seen! Lots of parking, very short, easy access to pool and beach. Nice stocked kitchen we cooked lunch everyday. Plenty of towels. The only thing I can complain about is the master bed is terribly uncomfortable, so much that I don’t think I could stay again if not changed. I dreaded going to bed each night. It got very cool at night when we were there and the bed linens were like having three sheets. If the owners would upgrade the mattresses, invest in quality linens and consider adding smart TVs with streaming access this would literally be the best condo you could ever stay in especially for the price!! If bed comfort is not a priority for you then you will enjoy this condo it still is one of the best we have stayed in!

Great time

The condo was clean and the location was great. The tub in the master bathroom was tall which made it a little difficult to get in/out of. A hand rail would be helpful. We needed a cookie sheet and couldn’t find one in the condo. I called and within ten minutes someone brought us a new one. We would definitely stay here again!

Awesome view

This condo was good. Awesome location and right on the beach with a fantastic view. Staff was great and beach service was really nice. Lots of space and sleeps 10. It does however need some serious tlc. The door is super hard to open and close, the ac return vent is completely rusted over, the cabinet draws in kitchen and both bathrooms are peeling off in huge chunks, and drywall near furniture really needs to be fixed. Overall not a bad place to stay just needs some fixing up.

A few things need fixed, but overall a great condo

The dishwasher was broken, maintenance apparently came to fix it (we didn’t see them) and. I thing was fixed. The dryer needs to be replaced or fixed, it barely heats up so drying beach stuff was very slow. I also think that when spending this much money on a condo a few more trash bags, toilet paper rolls, hand soap, bathing towels should be included. The front door also needs repair, it barely closes it’s so warped. However, overall, it is a great condo with an OBVIOUSLY amazing location! Weiils stay here again, if upgrades were made.

Major Leak in Condo

We stayed in the condo for a long weekend. It was later in the evening when we got to the condo. We noticed water seeping up from the floor in various locations in the condo. We notified the maintenance the next morning since it was so late the night before. Maintenance showed up right away. They learned that the air conditioning line was backed up and had been leaking for quite some time before we even arrived. We then had blowers in the condo for the entire duration of our trip to dry out the floor. Not really an ideal situation. There are not enough towels provided for your stay. Make sure to pick up extra toilet paper for your stay as well.

Sleepless Nights

The overall footage and view was good. The front door needs repair, the master (to hard) and full size(sink holes) mattresses needs to be replace......the refrigerator freezer would not stay close, it will open when the frig side opens/closes....we lost our ice cream. We have had better stays, this unit need some updates, very dated.
