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!

Loved the lazy river

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.

Family vacation

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.

Great view of the bay and overlooking the lazy river. Bit of a long walk to the ocean across the skyway and all the way through the other half of the property but the water was beautiful and we got to see dolphins! It was unseasonably cold and we never found a heated pool. The lazy river, our favorite, was long, deep, had plenty of tubes, and freezing water. My only complaint was I brought flavored keurig capsules, and there was no Keurig as description indicated, then they brought me an old one that didn’t work so I had to go half the trip without coffee in the cold.
