We had an Amazing Trip and Best time at the Heron L4 at the Destin West Bay. The condo was absolutely beautiful and perfect for our stay. We had access to the beach, the pier and the lazy river. The resort was beautiful, clean and the maintenance staff were very helpful. I couldn't imagine a better place to stay. Thank you and we look forward to our next vacation here. ❤️👍😊

Incredible Rental

Our family was so comfortable during our week stay! We were blown away by the quality of furniture, amenities, and the entire condo. We were also very impressed with the evening grounds keeper; he worked diligently to pick up the smallest palm debris after storms and would check in to see how our stay was going. We loved having access to the dock, bay, and beach without getting in the car. We would definitely stay here again!

Great family vacation

A beautiful condo. Very clean. Well equipped. The location was a bit far from the beach, but not too bad of a walk.. We brought our jet skis and were able to bring them close to the condo to swap out riders and ride them in the Bay Area. The pool area was very nice and refreshing on hot summer days.

We have stayed at Destin West a couple of times but this condo is by far our favorite! We loved the hot tub on our deck and the condo was beautiful! We have never stayed on the bay side but wow it did not disappoint! We will stay here again! Love Coastal Vibe always takes great care of us!

Great place to stay in Destin/Fort Walton Beach area.

This place was perfect for our Spring Break getaway. The place had three large bedrooms that easily housed the six adults that were on the trip. The hot tub was awesome. The pool and lazy river were great as well. The location is a short walk to the beach. It took about 5 minutes to get there. The beach was really clean and not overcrowded. You are able to access the beach via a private walk way which is really nice. The place is centrally located for dining options in Destin as well as Fort Walton beach. Will definitely stay here again if we are looking for something in the Destin/Fort Walton Beach area.

Excellent Family retreat!

Beautiful and clean condo- perfect for a family get away! Our girls loved the bunk beds and my oldest felt safe to sleep up top! Comfortable beds, loved the hot tub for when the kids needed a break from the sun. Many card games were played out there! We of course love the Destin west lazy river, pool and access to the bay and gulf. Ricks on the island next door had delicious pizza, seafood and drinks. We will be back next year!

Best Beach vacation spot ever!

Mark and I really enjoyed our time in the condo. It really felt like home. We loved the way everything was decorated. The bed was very comfortable. We were impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked with every utensil that we might've needed. We really enjoyed the private hot tub. I can't wait to return .

Best condo in the best beach resort

We’ve been staying at Destin west since 2015. We keep trying different condos to see which one we like. This one is by far our new favorite. Already booked for next year! Clean, huge, sleeps 10, and the decor is so beachy and elegant. Checkin was a breeze! Plenty of towels and the working hot tub was fabulous! Zero complaints. Highly recommend this condo as well as Coastal Vibe vacations.
