This is a wonderful place for us to stay during spring break with two teenagers and myself. The condo itself is wonderfully appointed, with everything you might need or want. Pots and pans, baking sheets, measuring cups, etc. Immaculately clean with very nice touch. Touches such as sparkling grape juice upon our arrival. Wonderful towels, which sounds like a funny thing to say, but if you’ve stayed in enough rentals, you know that that is important. Everything in perfect working order. The washer and dryer were especially helpful. The view from this property is probably one of the best you get to face the sunset and you have a view of the gulf. You’re also overlooking the Gulf side pool. If you were meeting people at the beach or pool, you are able to just go out on the balcony. The lazy river, the pools and the accessibility to the Boardwalk restaurants and the pier were perfect for our group. This rentals management was extremely responsive and when they didn’t hear from me on check-in, they messaged me to make sure everything was good. I told them I appreciated all the thoughtful touches in this property. We will definitely stay here again!
If you’re wondering what the view from the sofa is, this is it!

The condo was amazing. The host was good at communication. Beautiful beach view from the balcony and great balcony seating. Comfortable sofa for lounging and bed a pillows for sleeping were great also. Beach service was a plus. I would stay here again when visiting the area. It would probably be during a different week because the weather wasn't the greatest during our visit. But, you never know what you are going to get when in Florida.

Nice place

The condo was really clean and well taken care of. Beds were comfortable and linens were good quality. Pool towels were a !!It is advertised as 2 bedroom, but actually one of those is a bunk room that has space for beds only. Just fyi. There isn't a space for their belongings, it's very cramped. They had to put suitcases in the hallway. There were 2 pull out ottoman beds which would be nice for kiddos, we didnt use during our stay. The location of condos were nice and pool area was nice-very large pool which is very important to me. There is a kiddie pool which I felt was a waste since no one used the entire week, but would have been nice to 2 hot-tubs because it was always full. It was nice to have beach chair service included. Saved us room having to travel with chairs/umbrella and pool towels. We had a lot of rain and the water was terrible with June grass, but that's mother nature. Next time, we will most likely stay in Destin just for the location. We ended up in Destin every night either to eat or shop. It's not that far of a drive.

This property was exactly as described - worked perfectly for a family of 4. Steps from the beach with private property board walk and great view from our balcony. We also enjoyed the spacious pool near our unit as well as the lazy river across the street at the bayside sister property. Chairs were easy to get on the beach and 2 are included with rental. Many restaurants nearby - full kitchen if you want to cook! The washer and dryer in room were great - really helped with all the beach clothes. Overall great stay with great hosts - clean and all needs were met!

Summer vacay!

This was our first time staying at this particular condo, second time at Destin West! Overall, we had a positive experience. The property was clean, which made a great first impression. All necessary appliances were included, making it easy to settle in and feel at home. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and looking at all of the beautiful views. The sights and sounds of the waves crashing were so relaxing. Be mindful, there is a bunkroom a not a 2nd bedroom. It was notably cramped for my teens but, they managed to make it work without too much trouble. Despite this minor inconvenience, the condo’s other attributes, like its cleanliness, location, amenities and the well-equipped kitchen, helped balance out the experience. We enjoyed our stay! Thanks from Louisiana for providing us a great space to create memories of our family vacation!

Great rental in beautiful, convenient location

Wonderful week long stay in unit 605. It was a convenient Uber from Destin airport and everything we needed was already in the unit or a short walk away. We had groceries delivered and there were several good restaurants within walking distance along the beach. (Stewbys off the beach is delicious). The unit was excellent. Clean and with much nicer towels and furnishings than most vacation rentals. The balcony has a view over one of the pools as well as a beautiful view of the gulf and beach. The kitchen has good knives and enough cookware for us to prepare several of our meals there. Check-in was super easy (key code entry) and when I texted the local staff at checkout I received a prompt and friendly response. The Destin West property has multiple pool options (3 different temp levels) plus our kids loved the lazy river. Overall a great rental. The ease of this location and rental made us think we will try to return in the future.
