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.

On the beach in a five minute walk from door to sand. Having chairs and umbrella set-up included was great. Beds were comfortable. Tv and wifi worked well. Wish it were a bit cleaner, but was still a great stay.

Gulfside 209 was the perfect location for our vacation! The condo was very clean and provided everything we needed (we especially enjoyed the beach chairs and umbrella). It was within walking distance to the beach, pools, the lazy river, and several restaurants. We left the premises in our car only twice during the entire week. It was the perfect relaxing vacation, and we hope to return next year!
