  Wonderful September Vacation

  Jason R. from Huntsville, AL recommends this property.

  Stayed 4 days in September, 2009

  We had a great time at the Islander. It is so amazing to wake up and the first thing you see is the beautiful emerald water. The rooms are always clean and quiet, and the amenities like the free movie rentals and beach chairs and umbrellas are awesome. This is our 5th year staying at the Islander, and we are already looking forward to next years trip!

  Restful time at the Islander

  A guest from Luling, LA recommends this property.

  Stayed 3 days in June, 2009

  We were very pleased with our trip to Islander 604. It was so wonderful to wake and see the waves right from our bed. There were only two little tiny things that stopped this from being 100% perfect and that was a broken refrigerator shelf (no big deal) and you could smell the trash chute in our hallway outside our door (although NEVER in our room, only in the hallway). I would just hold my breath until we got past that part of the hallway. And any chance they could speed up that elevator?

  Well pleased with our stay

  A guest from Breman, GA recommends this property.

  Stayed 2 days in May, 2009

  Over all our stay was very comfortable and relaxing. The condo was neat, clean and had comfortable accomodations. All appliances worked well,airconditioning was efficient. There were just a few inconveniences that had little to do with the actual room. The elevator was TERRIBLY SLOW though. We requested non-smoking accomodations and room was but, then other tenants could smoke on the balconies and that ruined our enjoyment on our balcony because we either had to endure their cigarette stench or leave the comfort of our own "non-smoking" accomodations.

  Oct. 2008 Trip

  Barbara G. from Letart, WV recommends this property.

  Stayed 7 days in October, 2008

  Really missed the closet space, where the refrigerator, close hamper, and vacuum were. Not much room to put anything else in there. The air conditioner needs some attention. You have to take the thermostat pretty far back in order for it to kick on, but, then, it gets too cold and You have to get up and turn it up, to get it to kick off. Then, it would usually get too hot because it wasn't wanting to kick on. The Overall stay was great.

  FORT WALTON BEACH--JULY OF 2008

  A guest from Huntsville, AL recommends this property.

  Stayed 5 days in July, 2008

  We loved the Islander and the condo we rented. It was right on the beach and we could sit for hours and look out at the gulf. We would recommend #604 to anyone that just wanted a little studio, it's great for couples. The only thing we hope that the owners might change would be some chairs that were a little more comfortable. Rear got a little sore sitting for long periods of time. But over all we will be back and would love to stay in the same unit.

  Great Vacation

  Luetta G. from Hummelstown, PA recommends this property.

  Stayed 6 days in June, 2008

  It was perfect for 2 people - I don't think it would easily accommodate more than that. Just not enough storage room. We really enjoyed the room and the view. We would definitely book it again and recommend it to others.

  We stayed 3 nites awaiting the arrival of our group of 9 (we then moved to a different complex w/ 4 bedrooms). This unit was just right for us. Clean, comfortable, reasonably priced, especially for a holiday weekend.

  Very Disappointing

  Saundra K. from Booneville, MS does not recommend this property.

  Stayed 3 days in March, 2008

  We had stayed at the Islander once before and were extremely pleased which is why we chose them again. This time was different. When I made the reservation, I indicated we would be arriving late. I received a confirmation letter stating to pick up our keys at the office with a lock box code. When we arrived we went to the office at the Islander. We were NOT told that the keys would be at the Brooks and Shorey office. When we FINALLY got someone on the 24/7 line. They were rude. We were also not told we would be in building two. So we are wondering around, trying to get in our room at 1:30 AM with 2 kids and luggage. We finally got in about 3AM. When I complained I was met with indifference and made to feel this was all my fault. I should have seen something that was not on the letter and I shouldn't have had to make an emergency call at 2AM. Emergencies by nature cannot be planned. I sent the manager a copy of the letter I received and have yet to get a response. Needless to say. This is our last stay with Brooks and Shorey as management agents. Our room was small and not cleaned well.

  Shauna M. from Lawrenceburg, KY recommends this property.

  Stayed 7 days in March, 2007

  This was the third year that we have stayed in that particular unit and we love it! The new decor is great! We have never had a bad experience there. The view is amazing, the pool and deck is large and the beaches are clean and not overly crowded. If I had to find something negative it would be the slow elevator. :) We will definitely return.
