Wonderful stay

We were extremely pleased with the amenities both in the unit, and at Destin West. The condo was very tastefully decorated, was very well stocked with everything we needed. We had great balcony views of the Gulf, and the beautiful pool area. Coastal Vibe was so easy to work with, and ensured a relaxing stay for our trip (so much so, we extended our vacation). The beach access was great, as was the chair/umbrella service.
