Had to buy paper plates and bowls and plastic ware and cups.One roll of toilet paper and paper towels. No dishwasher soap or dish soap to clean up.Very few towels and furniture was dingy and smelled.Did not feelLike a beachside vacation rental at all. Feels old and random furniture. Not a beachy feel or cheery environmental.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The unit was clean and nicely decorated. The lazy pool and hot tubs were a family favorite. The walking distance to the pier and beach was very manageable for our group. 5 out of 5 stars.

We will be back!

We had a wonderful time at the condo. The views, lazy river, pools, and beach access are amazing. The condo itself is great. Lots of space, very clean and comfortable. The only minor issue we had was the lounge chairs on the roof in the pics were not there so we couldn't lay out on the rooftop deck, and the washer/dryer in the unit is LOUD and barely works. It took a couple of noisy hours to dry two beach towels. Overall, the place is great and we had the best time. Would not hesitate to book again!

Great resort for family

The location of Destin West resort is awesome! Pool and beach access were easy with a couple kids and a wagon to tow all our stuff. Easy walk to Gulfarium, the Boardwalk shoppes and restaurants, Wild Willys and more. This specific unit is probably better for those with older kids or none at all because it's on the 7th floor. 2nd floor units had easy walking access to pool which would have been great with the littles. This unit lacked the essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, etc. We had to purchase all that when we arrived. Check-in was easy and stay was great. Note, only the main pool (in the middle of the lazy river) and the hot tubs are heated. The lazy river and pool located beachside are NOT heated.

Excellent Experience

We loved the penthouse! It was very clean and as advertised in the listing. The pools and lazy river were so much fun. We enjoyed the beach as well. Check in was easy. The host was friendly and accommodating. We really didn't need much, as they already had everything set up and ready to go. We highly recommend staying here. We will return!

Mediocre

Communication and information during the process was good. Check-in was easy. However, access to the gym and beach was not very convenient. It was quite a hike to get to either. Also, the washer was broken in our condo. I text the maintenance contact but never received a response. The beds are very springy and not very comfortable.

June vacation

Overall was just okay. We usually stay in Santa Rosa or Seaside and prefer that area much better. Was a hassle getting to the beach, we stayed on the Bayside. There were no beach toys available, umbrella and chairs available were rusted and broken. Ice maker did not work, had to purchase ice everyday. Notified property manager on our first night and they never followed up. It is a very busy/touristy area not very convenient with young children. Lazy river on Bayside was nice, but would recommend own comfier floats. We have stayed in bigger newer homes for same cost, overall little disappointing and just okay, definitely would not go back.

Unacceptable

The location was nice. The AC and the Refrigerator broke down three days prior to our check out. We were forced to discard food that we bought for the family. Because the AC did not work, the room was uncomfortably warm and stuffy. Management and the Owner were made aware of the problem and no one fixed the problem. Need I say more!

Pleasantly Surprised

Vacationed with our college age son and middle school age son. Great location away from tourist traps but close enough (5-10 minute drive) if that's your interest. Felt private and safe. Very clean. Very helpful and friendly hosts. We overlooked the bay. From roof balcony great view of ocean, bay and Island. Can see bridges and buildings in Destin. Spent equal time in pool/lazy river and the nice, clean beach. Lots of shops, fishing pier ($2 to walk, watched a pod of dolphins just hanging around pier annoying the people fishing lol) and family activities within walking distance. Good value for the money. Beds were comfortable. Huge master bath. Full size kitchen. We bought food for the week at grocer a mile away and mainly had meals in the condo. Would not hesitate to stay with this management group again. Sad we had to leave to go back home.

great condo in a great location

The condo is clean and modern looking and has a great master area that looks out on the pools. It is not a bad walk to the beach, about 5-7 minutes and the skywalk helps make it safe for the kids. We waffled on whether it would be better to stay right on the beach and give up the fancy pools/lazy river but were happy with our choice. It came with a beach wagon, four chairs and a beach umbrella as well as 2 beach towels. The only thing missing was a top sheet on the bottom bunk but we found an extra one in the master closet. Our kids loved the lazy river, pools and spas, they were 3 different temperatures (lazy river colder, pool really warm and spas moderately hot but not like a real hot tub). And the rooftop deck was cool, you can really watch the sunset and see the gulf and the bay really well from up there. My only complaint is that there is a beach service that sets up and rents chairs and umbrellas on DestinWest's private beach and leave almost no space for anyone who doesn't want to pay the exorbitant rental fees for the chairs and umbrellas. We had to get there early to claim a small space that they leave open (literally about 15 feet). And the lifeguards and sheriffs prowl the beach like it's full of felons, kind of annoying. They actually had the entire beach closed the first day we were there and were harassing people who were too far out in the surf. So if you like to ride waves on a boogie board or spread out on the shore this may not be the place for you.

Spring Break Trip

We stayed for the week and was a little disappointed in some of the things that weren’t properly cleaned, the balcony had a cigar piece on it and the grill had dirty left over foil with food pieces on it. Also very disappointed in the fact that the pool closes at 10:00 on. That’s a little early for a vacation location. There is not a good selection of cooking supplies in the kitchen either.
