Florida 2025 Vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As always, our stay booked through Brooks & Shorey went flawless. We were given the opportunity to select a different condo because the one we had booked was going to have noise with contractors working around. We loved the alternate condo, which was larger. As a result, we loved the larger condo and booked a similar larger condo for 2026. This is our 4th year going through Brooks & Shorey! Kudos and thanks for helping our vacation be an enjoyable one!

October 2022 stay at Islander 5009

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: We four stayed for one week this October and enjoyed it very much. Thankful for the updated kitchen appliances and nice living room furniture, as well as master bed and bath. Twin bed in 2nd bedroom needs to be replaced...seems broken. It slanted. Balcony furniture nice except for plastic chaise lounge chair. Broken so did not use.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There were several maintenance issues with the unit, not to mention the walkway to the beach was out the entire visit despite being worked on a little bit each day. I thought it would be done within a day or two. It was still out when we left. The property manager I spoke with wasn't exactly on her game.

Great view and clean!!

The property was very nice and clean! The view of the gulf was fantastic! The furniture on the balcony in the listing is different than the actual furniture at the property. In the picture there is an outside table with tall chairs. At the property there's a couch, a chair, and a side table. We were looking forward to eating at the table on the deck with the view from the taller chairs. The other chairs work they just not what we were expecting. But would definitely stay again!

Awful beds. No blanket for pullout

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There are two twin beds, one king bed, and 2 pullout beds. The king and two twins need to be replaced. You can feel the springs on the twin beds and the king bed feels like a trampoline. Also, there were no blankets for the pullout beds and no pillowcases for the extra pillows. We didn’t know there was no blankets for the pullout beds until late at night and everything was closed. My kids had no blanket to sleep with on the first night. Other than sleeping issues, the place was the perfect size. Great location. I would stay here again if the beds were replaced.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our experience was great except for the sofa beds that were so out of date that for my older kids we had to go and purchase 2 different air mattresses so that they could sleep on the floor. They need to be updated or replaced. Other than that everything was great.
