Great vacay!!

Destin West Condos was very nice to stay in. Rainy for first few days, but then beautiful weather for remainer of week. The condo was awesome, great location and balcony was perfect overlooking pool/ocean area. The only complaint I would have is that The Island next door had beach chair rentals that took over the WHOLE beach area in front of the condos. They had 3 rows of chairs which left sitting towards the back of the beach instead of by the water. Otherwise great vacation!! :)

Cute quaint place on the beach

The place was very cute and quaint. Features of condo were as described, and had a great view of the beach from balcony. Thank you for the additional beach chairs and wagon, this helped so much when we forgot a third chair for our group. The only downside was issues trying to configure light switches in kitchen and bedroom, as there were some switches that didn’t turn anything on /off. Took until the last day to figure out switch for lamp in living room. Overall, a great trip and we will definitely come back here!

Wonderful vacation!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was wonderful! The view from our room was beautiful on the Gulf side which included many dolphin sitings almost every morning! We had everything we needed inside the condo along with everything else within walking distance. Fun, shops, restaurants and beach bar! The additional access to The Island was great and the Bayside’s heated pools were great for the few chillier days we had. The Gulf side’s pool was a bit too cold for those days. The condo itself was comfortable and clean! The location was close to Destin which we traveled to multiple times to walk around the Harbor Village! Our family can not wait to return and make more memories here!

Very clean and great view!

The condo was very clean (HOW do you get all that sand cleaned up?!), great view of the ocean and the pool area! Really the only issues we had was the washer tried to not work correctly for 2 cycles but then miraculously started working after I contacted management. Also I was little shocked that even the very basic seasonings (S&P) weren’t even provided but that’s probably a Covid issue and definitely not a deal breaker! The pool (again not the Condo owners fault) was VERY COLD! They definitely didn’t have the heat on, it was so cold even the kids wouldn’t swim in it! Overall it was a great stay and a relaxing vacation!

Disappointing

Good location and the place was clean, also the responses from management were prompt when needed....those were about the only positives. Very uncomfortable beds and furniture in general, and the main TV signal was never strong enough to watch anything all week. My kids and I didn't sit out on the patio because the chairs out there were so uncomfortable.

Perfect location. Minor issues

Perfect location for traveling into Destin. Restaurants, shops, and boardwalk all within walking distance. Upon arrival, master had a stuffy smell. The condo had a beautiful view of the gulf! Did find mold on inside of the shower curtain which was quickly fixed by management property as well as the garbage disposal that didn’t work. Issues with the TV glitching as well as garbage disposal’s continuous leak under the counter. I would absolutely stay in this location again but might just look at a different condo.

Great view

Upon arrival the condo had a musty smell in the master bedroom area. Everything appeared as it did in the photos. However, the floors were dirty and sandy. The broom was broken and the sliding glass door was extremely hard to operate. By the second day the sliding door would not fully close or lock. I contacted the property manager and the door was fixed and a broom was brought to the room. We bought a swiffer to clean the floors. Upon arrival a wagon full of sandy beach toys, rusty chair, umbrella and half inflated floated were tossed in the corner of the balcony. This was not a welcoming sight! We didn’t touch any of it! Also the lounge chair on balcony was rusty and broken. The balcony table and chairs were functional and usable. The garbage disposal didn’t work which I reported at the end of our visit. It seemed there were maintenance concerns that should have been addressed before we arrived and for the price we paid I feel everything should have been in order before we arrived. The kitchen was equipped however, the cookware was not the best quality. Overall we had a great visit despite the issues listed above. The maintenance contact was helpful and did address my concerns. Would I stay here again? Probably not.

Nicely decorated and had all the amenities that we needed. Great view of and access to the beach, plus a convenient walk over the bridge to the Lazy River. Bonus was the beach wagon on the patio with beach chairs and kickboards (wish we would have had time to use them. Will definitely try to book this condo for future trips to Okaloosa.

Condo on the Beach was very clean and well taken care of. The pool & Hot Tub were extremely clean and well maintained! Only thing I would’ve liked to have seen, was the pool to be warmer. Not many used it due to the coldness of the water. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend this property. Very impressive!

Great access to beach, nice amenities. Very clean, beautiful view of ocean and restaurants down near the pier. Tips: wear sandals or slides on boardwalk during the day, very hot! Book your chairs/umbrella early, booth opens at 9am and usually a line starts to form about 830am. Fubar pizza (a few minutes away) is yummy and all the restaurants near the pier are very good! Recommend the lobster tacos at Rockin Tacos!
