Bay side Penthouse- Breath taking/BEST VIEWS-2 balconies

AWESOME VIEWS!!!
This fresh looking Sandpiper PENTHOUSE Condo offers the best of two worlds. It offers breath taking, direct-shot views of the pristine Choctawhatchee Bay , Lazy River, Zero entry and water-fall (seasonally heated)l pools. The Hot tubs, New Marina and BBQ pits are right below your two balconies. This is a 1 Bedroom with Bunk Room with Large privacy curtain and 2 baths Penthouse condo on the Bay side of Destin West. The roof-top terrace, has all the Bay views mentioned in addition to Gulf and beach views across the street. The new designer style Sleeper/sofa and lounge chair in the living area will maximize your comfort and relaxation during your stay. There are TWO private balconies that offer sights of this special vacation area...including the Choctawatchee Bay and Gulf of Mexico. Both floors have very comfortable patio furniture. What a great one-destination vacation spot. Free gym with full amenities is included. Free Wi-Fi, a separate washer and dryer and nice upper patio furniture. Oh...did I mention the new Private Marina that goes out some 400 ft into the Bay (fishing permit included with the condo) to Fish or just wander around, its great entertainment for you and your family.


There are large HI-def flat screen TV's with DVR players in both the living room and master bed room. The bunk beds area also have their flat screen TV with built-in DVD player for the kids to watch their favorite movies. A thick separation curtain offers added privacy for those staying in the bunk beds. A full size separate washer and dryer is also provided inside the condo. The bedroom furniture is classic and very comfortable while the living room is bright and inviting. The new sleeper sofa in the living area will make your experience most enjoyable. Comfortable dining for 6 is no problem on the dining table and bar chairs.

It’s easy to stay with us. You can send us an email or get an instant quote on the price break-down of your stay.

Our commitment is to provide you with a level of comfort, convenience and relaxation you will enjoy as much as we do when we spend our winters at Destin West. We do our utmost to exceed your expectations.

JUST READ THE REVIEWS!!! YOU WILL LOVE OUR CONDO!

The views from the roof-top floor blow away the condos on the lower floors. You get there by a spiral staircase on the living room balcony that leads up to a private rooftop terrace with 360 degree views of the Gulf, Bay, distant sand dunes, etc... it is just perfect for a family getaway!

An elevate walk way provides safe walking access over highway 98 to the beautiful sugar white sand beach and the amenities associated with the Destin West Gulf property. These amenities include a state-of-the-art work out facility, the largest swimming pool on the island, a smaller partially covered pool that is heated in the cooler months, and a hot tub, are all included in your stay.
No other resort offers private beach access, bay access, 10 pools, an award-winning lazy river, full access to the restaurants and Tikki bar at The Island Beach Resort, and a marina!

All of our guests have access to both sides of our remarkable property! An elevated walkway bridge connects the gulf side and bayside, making it easy for our guests to travel back and forth!
Destin West beach and Bay (Caribbean style resort) is one of the newest and most unique on Okaloosa Island. In the middle of a lush, tropical landscape (bay side) is a lazy river ( the longest in the area) with a zero entry pool and 2 hot tubs. Fish from the bay, catch dinner and grill on one of the many BBQ's. Want to spend time on the beach? Just a fun walk over the SKY WALKWAY. While on the gulf side enjoy all the amenities it has to offer including a 5000 sq ft pool, state of the art fitness center and kiddie spray park. Guests at Destin West also have privileges at The Island Hotel restaurant and Tikki Bar.
Okaloosa Island is centrally located near great restaurants, night clubs, water sports, fishing piers, water parks, aquarium and the Boardwalk that has really fun bars and night clubs. Just over the bridge is the Harborwalk's fine restaurants, shops and fireworks every Thursday night in the summer.
Come visit Okaloosa Island and become an 'Islander'!

Location was great, I loved the walkway to get to the beach, and restaurants, shopping and the pier are close via the walkway. The place was super clean. My wishes would be a softer bed (all were harder, but bearable), enough warm water in the shower (ran out within 10 min all 3 days we were there), and maybe a list of things recommended to do in the area? Its always nice to hear what the host thinks is fun. We relied on Yelp, and weren't disappointed, but we had to look for specifics. Not sure we would rebook, but overall the property was usable.

Little piece of paradise
The condo was great overall. We have stayed at this resort a few times and it was just as i remembered it. Very family friendly. We loved having the penthouse with the rooftop balcony. The breeze and view were awesome. The biggest downside was the grill to our condo messed up before we got there, so we ended up not having our private grill. But luckily we were able to use the neighbor's so it worked out. Besides that everything was great. We were very sad to leave.

Great location and great property. We’ve stayed at the Henderson and the Emerald Grand on our previous visit and they don’t compare to this resort. Condo was easy to find and very convenient to elevator and parking. So many pools and hot tubs to choose from. Lazy river was amazing!! Beach was amazing!! Publix was within a mile. Can’t wait to stay again.

We stayed here last year for our first trip to Destin, after booking this years trip I realized I didn’t write a review. The room was clean, they updated since these pictures were taken! Great area, not crazy busy but close enough to everything. The views of the bay were amazing, just a short walk and you were right there. The skywalk is great to get over to the gulf side, recommend a wagon/stroller if you have toddlers! Would def stay here again.
