This was the perfect little condo. The king sized bed in the master was so comfortable. I loved the Jack and Jill bathrooms so that we had 2 toilets when things got tough with 5 of us. The view was spectacular. The only thing I wish the complex had was a bigger pool, but that is no fault of the owner/condo itself. We would definitely stay here again.

It was a great week. The only negative was spotty cell service. All else was good.

Sunset Resort is an excellent way to rent a beachfront condo. I got to talk to actual people during the booking process, and I had to revise my stay more than once and they were nothing but gracious and helpful. They don't nickel and dime you with any fees and you will save money renting through sunset resorts rather than one of the short term rental apps

Absolutely loved our stay. Perfect location and can't get a better view. We had a couple days of rain but spent time on the balcony and didn't feel like we were missing out. Highly recommend.

This was our first time going to the beach with our 2.5 year old adventurous son! The condo’s bunk beds in the hallway were perfect for storing luggage (top bunk) and for our little one to easily find us in the night as it’s located directly next to the bedroom. Having a kitchen, washer & dryer, and a place to go recoup after long beach days was essential for our toddler and us! The room came with chairs via beach service; those boys worked hard the entire 7 days we were there. The pool was the perfect reprieve from the beach. The location on the water had beautiful clear tides and was close to many great restaurants in walking distance whether it be from the beach or the road. Honestly if you are a a family of 3-4 this condo could feel full quickly, especially with kiddos leaving things about, but the pullout couch and balcony offered more comfortable attributes to the condo. The room is located in front of the elevator - which we were not bothered by. I would definitely consider staying again next
time around!

Almost Excellent
The location of the property can't be beat—Gulf beachfront with the view of that dreamy emerald blue water. However, there were multiple times that cigarette smoke wafted onto my balcony as I was trying to enjoy the view. There is a no smoking policy but evidently some guests staying at the property feel this rule doesn't apply to them. Also, there is a shuttered window in the bedroom that still allows light in at night and I couldn't find a way to shut out that light to get a good nights sleep. Loved the water hoses on the beach walkway to rinse off the sand and also the umbrella and beach chairs were promptly set up each morning. Staff was very courteous and other guests I encountered were friendly.

This unit is perfect for two people! My husband and I enjoyed our stay here very much.
The view is great, we watched dolphins playing each morning. We were there the second week of January, hardly any people, very peaceful.

2nd visit in this unit - great views!!!
This was our 2nd time in this unit, but 5th time at Gulf Dunes. Stay was comfortable like usual, however this visit was a little worse for wear when one bathroom's 4-bulb vanity light only had 1 working bulb and the over-the-toilet shelf in the other restroom was leaning like the Tower of Piza. The carpet in the bedroom was heavily stained since last visit (2019). I think it'd be a good time to do upgrades. I love the new building exterior color scheme (grey with blue/white/tan accents). This unit is directly in front of the elevators which makes going in/out with bags very easy.
In this visit, out of all visits, we were lucky to see from the balcony and be in the ocean with dolphins and dozens of sting rays. My mother and her partner go to the fishing pier that's a few buildings down and spend 2-3 days catching enough fish to fill the freezer! Once they caught tuna, but usually its spanish mackerel. We will continue to return to Gulf Dunes when vacationing in the Florida panhandle.

Great View and with beach chairs included!
This is a great unit! We always love having a good view of the ocean! This unit comes with 2 beach chairs and umbrella at certain times of the year which is an added bonus. This is the 3rd year that we have stayed in this unit and it has always been nice and clean. We are both OCD so that is very important to us. It also has 2 bathrooms which is good for us as we go out a lot a night and both need room to get ready. I highly recommend this unit!!

This is a nice condo - however I think it should be noted that this unit is right beside the elevator - which is right beside the bedroom. When you have rude guest coming and going through the night it is impossible to sleep. There is also alot of lighting at this location, so the room never gets dark.
The condo was well stocked with supplies and linens. It was clean, except for the outdoor balcony area. The concrete area was very dirty. The chairs and umbrella service provided on the beach was perfect. Very short stroll on the walkway to the beach with a shower area. There is a restroom area downstairs in the garage area for easy access from the beach/pool. The pool is not large but sufficient. Plenty of deck area with chairs for lounging. This area is under the watchful eye of a lifeguard and they patrol the area on four wheelers.

Nice, clean and spacious condo. Beautiful gulf views. Quick walk to the beach. Overall location is great and within walking distance to some good restaurants. A negative is this unit is right in front of elevator and trash chute so a little more noisy at times. Really enjoyed our stay recently.

Maintenance
The room was nice and clean, however the Maintenance was a bit much, the east heated pool which I was told was open, was closed as was the west pool most of the time, I had scaffolding up and down in fron of balcony all day everyday, could not use us the balcony one day as the were working directly above and next to us, had to remove balcony furniture everytime we left so the contractor could work on our balcony when we were gone. No water till noon one day. I know maintenance is necessary but I should have been notified as to the extent of it so I could have chosen a different room.

Beach Front Bliss
From the balcony we could see & listen to the waves rolling in on the beach. The chair service was an excellent convenience. The condo was nicely furnished and very clean. The Gulf Dunes complex was well maintained. Sunset Resort Rentals was very responsive to any issues and their staff was most pleasant.

Had a great visit. The condo was very clean, could not get the WiFi to work at all.. kept telling me the password was incorrect. Also the beach chair and umbrellas were but out at different times every morning and some days they only had one person setting up.

Great View!!
My sister and I really enjoyed our condo at Gulf Dunes! Because COVID 19 had so many things restricted, we spent a good amount of time at the beach, it was great to have chair and umbrella service! We had a great view from our balcony, very relaxing way to start-and end-the day!
