Condo was very nice and clean; exactly as described. Lots of space for a family without feeling cramped. Furniture and bedding were very comfortable. View was amazing! Kitchen provided everything needed (except for meat thermometer to cook prime rib). Great time to visit with nice weather and no crowd. We've stayed in Okaloosa Island several times and this has been my husband's favorite condo so far. Will be back.

Condo was nice with the exception of needing a few things. Matser bath sink would stop up with water before water could get hot, Sink in the other bathroom would not get any hot water to it. Faucets look like someone had not cleaned them from previous guest, they had toothpaste on them.

Girl's Getaway 2022-07-10
By: Tammy R. Trip Date: 2022-06-20
We recently stayed in this beautiful condo for a girl's getaway. We had plenty of room for the 5 of us and we enjoyed the accomodations. The kitchen was very spacious and we loved spending time on the large balcony.There was enough outdoor furniture for all of us to sit and enjoy the ocean view. We did have a bit of difficulty trying to figure out how the flush the toilets but everything else was great. We have already booked this condo again for summer 2023.
Response from Brooks and Shorey Resorts, Inc.:
AMAZING! We are beyond thrilled to hear this and thank you for booking again for next year. We look forward to seeing you again.

To Many umbrellas 2021-10-27
By: Anonymous Trip Date: 2021-10-17
I wish they would end the chair/umbrella service a little sooner.(like the end of August) It takes away from the peacefulness in the morning. They are there 7:00 AM while I am trying to have a peaceful cup of coffee and enjoy the view and sound of the ocean on the balcony.
Response from Brooks and Shorey Resorts, Inc.:
Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback on your stay.. We are glad the condo itself was enjoyable. Our beach chair rentals start from March 1st - October 31st and many guest do enjoy this FREE amenity .

By: Barbara B. Trip Date: 2021-09-17
As usual our stay at Surf Dwellers was great. We like the location. The complex is always clean. The view from the balcony is wonderful. We had everything we needed. The humans around us were the only downfall. A lot of smoking in surrounding complexes as well as on the beach which was very unpleasant.

This condo was even larger than I had anticipated! Perfect view of the beach, most anything you needed in the kitchen, great pool area- the water temperature was great, easy drive to restaurants! The balcony was awesome. Also, friendly beach service, those guys really hustle every morning to get everything ready for you on the beach. Totally recommend it here!
