Great place, but we had water issues with the unit

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: Absolutely love Okaloosa Island and this unit, but we experienced water issues with the shower. The HOA had to shut down our water 3 different times on our vacation. We were told it would be between 12-2, the times definitely ran over. It was a big inconvenience to our group, my wife ended up going to a friends unit to shower. Overall I absolutely love the unit and I understand sometimes issues happen, but it definitely inconvenience us on our vacation

Beautiful condo with spectacular view

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gulf Dunes 617. This is a top floor, end unit-so you only have one shared wall and no one above you. The view from this room is breathtaking…All the furniture was updated and the decor was really refreshing. Nice, big rooms with plenty of space. We loved the huge TV’s in each room…my kids could each pick one and there was no fighting over what to watch-so nice! Appliances are nice and updated. Only thing I noticed (not a huge deal at all), but the dryer seemed to take much longer to dry any laundry that we did. Maybe it needs a tune up or the heating element is beginning to go out, not sure. That was the only issue we had….and it wasn’t a huge deal, because it still worked, just took several rounds to get the clothes dry. We absolutely loved our stay in this condo and definitely plan on booking again in the future. I already miss waking up to those views! Thank you for providing us with such an awesome stay!

Everything we were looking for.The boardwalk/pier was a 15 minute walk down the beach. We shared an elevator with a maintenance man and he was very friendly and welcoming.My only complaint which is just a preference issue is the master bed was very hard.

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. 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: I always love staying at the Gulf Dunes. However, it would be great to have some cuddle blankets in a basket. The evenings/early mornings are cool and I didn't want to take the blankets off the beds to cuddle with. Also, basic supplies would be great. (dish soap, dish washer soap, laundry detergent, very small salt, pepper, ketchup, mustard, mayo, napkins, paper towels, coffee & filters, etc.) It's such a waste to purchase such things only to have to toss them when leaving. The people that stay at your rentals are not the type to abuse/destroy or waste such amenities. Decorating could use an update, décor is so outdated.

Property was in a great location, with a great view of the gulf, and lots of space in the condo. Check in and out was a breeze. The only bad was some food was left in a night stand in the double twin room, and the smoke detector was chirping in the same room.
