We enjoyed the stay and the getaway from reality! The skywalk to the beach was easy to navigate. The downside of the stay was the uncomfortable sitting areas, both on the balcony and in the kitchen island/dining table.David was extremely communicative and always answered any questions with a quick turn around time - excellent to work with!Overall, we enjoyed the vacation!
Great location and complex for families with children. Beach access was convenient and the beach is beautiful with a lot of nearby restaurants and activities. The lazy river, the multiple pools and whirlpools were a wonderful feature for adults and children
My mom and my two kids enjoyed staying here over spring break. The location is perfect. Room was clean and questions were answered promptly when reaching out.
We had a great stay. The apartment worked well for us and the pools and access to the beach were awesome.There are a few things that need fixing and upgraded, but overall we had a wonderful time.

Great place. We loved our stay. We liked the new furniture and were appreciative of when the staff replaced the old beach wagon. Thanks!
We had a great time, very comfortable condo great location you get off the elevator and there is the condo in front of you, which was ideal for 5 senior women, the only thing that would make it better would be a new mattress for the bottom bunk bed.

Lovely Stay
We had a lovely time at Destin West. The resort is great for families. This condo was clean and had plenty of room for our family of four. I thought it was bigger than it looked in the photos. And the view was just as good if not better. The beach chairs and wagon were a nice touch. It had everything we needed.
We stayed the week of Christmas. The pool was heated and had hot tubs as well. Overall a great time. The room was good. Plenty of wagons and extras if you forget sand toys/necessities for the beach.
Stay was overall very good! I wish it would have been a little closer to the beach, but the walk wasn’t awful! We rented a boat one day and it was super convenient having the bay and dock so close to the condo! But the lazy River was an overall HIT! We loved it and spent a lot of our time there, very neat area!
My family truly enjoyed staying here. We've been coming to Destin West for several years and this was our first time at this location but not our first time with Coastal Vibes Vacations. They provide very clean accommodations for our stay, and we'll be staying with them for future vacations too! They communicate clearly so nothing is left out.
We enjoyed our stay here. Property was amazing and the kids loved the lazy river. Beach was a walk but not terrible. Great restaurants nearby. Can’t wait to come back!
Family had a great time at the pools and beach which were right there. Great location to visit so many beaches and do l the water activities. Place was clean and spacious, owner was communicative during the stay when needed.
