The sugary soft sand is found nowhere else in North America, attracting visitors from all areas of the world. Wade in the crystal clear water of the Gulf of Mexico. This stretch of beach is part of Florida's Emerald Coast, stretching from Panama City to Pensacola.

My family and I had a great time! The condo was spacious, clean, and well stocked. The management company was wonderful as well. Communication was easy, and they were even kind enough to mail my toddlers pillow to us after we accidentally left it behind! Great experience overall and we will be back. :)

Overall, a great experience

We started in one unit, but the air conditioning wasn’t working. After an uncomfortable first night, we were moved to a different unit (which was a necessary pain). The rental company did everything they could to make our trip a good experience. No one can foresee this type of problem, but Sunset Resort Rentals was wonderful to work with - even giving us a return of one night’s rental fee. Overall, it was an excellent vacation!!

Great property!

The beach the property is on is private, however if you fly in like we did and don’t rent a car, you will have to Uber anywhere unless you walk, but it’s also not the safest walk due to there being heavy traffic. Also, do not recommend getting a golf cart in the area it’s not worth the money and you can’t go that far. The property itself is nice. There were some technical issues with the tv and the wifi throughout our stay, but it may just have been one maintenance call and it could’ve been fixed. Everything else was great.

Amazing Vacation!

Not much bad to say, especially when the weather was so enjoyable and almost perfect in our eyes! Only three minor downsides...no can opener in the kitchen (everything else you might need/want), WiFi did not function properly (would not let multiple devices to connect at once), and the carpets could use a good cleaning. Other than those minor things, the condo was great for our group of 8 (2 adults, and 6 young adults from 18-24). Will definitely stay here again!

Pleased with the experience

We were overall very happy with the stay. The only problem we had was not being able to connect to the wi-fi. The password would not work. I called and asked for assistance but never received it. Had to use hotspot which had spotty connection and missed an important zoom meeting because of it.

A good stay!

We enjoyed our stay. Unit looked good, except carpet needed cleaning (and probably replacing) badly. Rental Mgr and crew did a nice job cleaning. Entry hallway rug/runner would help reduce carpet wear. Deck furniture was great! Living room couches were newer. Coffee table was missing its top, HOA should strongly encourage all owners to put pads on chairs being moved on tile or hard surfaces. That was the only irritation. Quiet hours were respected. Unit door was right across from the garbage chute and elevator. Not too bad…If a few noises don’t bother you, the unit was great! Overall, Gulf Dunes is well maintained and a nice place to stay.

Beautiful condo and views! Will definitely stay again. Easy access to beach, grocery and entertainment! The heated pool was a nice bonus. Perfect fit for our family of 7. Absolutely loved the large balcony! There were no beach chairs available in December, however another tenant mentioned that vacationers head to goodwill (she even told me how to find it)🙂, picked up 3 brand new looking chairs and passed them on to another family on our last day with the boogie boards. Everyone in the complex was so friendly!
