This was our second time staying at Destin West and our first in this particular unit. The location was perfect both for pools and the beach and getting out and about around the area. Beds were comfortable, the unit was clean, and we had everything we needed. The wagon and chairs were super helpful. Parking was easy and close. Despite the resort being full, noise was never an issue from the pool/lazy river. The one time we had trouble finding something in the unit, we immediately received a response even after hours! This is truly our favorite place to go, and we’re already planning our next stay. Thanks so much for the perfect vacation home!

Wonderful Stay in Destin

We had a great stay at Destin West! Between the lazy river, pools, and beach there was always something to do. Close proximity to local restaurants, shops, Publix meant you didn’t have to travel far once you arrive. Would recommend!

Destin west bayside

Location was great. View from end condo was spectacular overlooking lazy river & bay. Close to many restaurants & activities. Bridge over Highway to the gulf beach was easy & safe. Sufficient parking available. Communication with management company was easy & they responded quickly to our needs. We will rent again in the future.

Paradise

Incredibly accommodating, everything you could wish for was in the condo. Will 100% be booking here again. had one of the most marvelous vacations I could’ve ever envisioned, nothing went wrong it was the best. The cleanliness and location of the property was perfect only a two minute walk to the beach through the sky bridge and the most amazing lazy river two hot tubs and huge pools you can imagine. we walked to every restaurant and every activity we wanted to do because the location was centered at the best part of Destin. I can’t wait to revisit for years to come.

Great location and comfy, clean condo!

The property is close to the beach, local shopping and restaurants. The lazy River and pools were a lot of fun and a beautiful FL backdrop. The beach is a short walk on the sky bridge. The condo was clean and has everything we needed for a week stay.

Beach and bay vaca

We love this place and Heron L08 did not disappoint. It has everything you need, including a beach wagon and chairs! We truly love staying on the bay side in this tropical paradise. I was most impressed with the timely correspondence from the owner, Jennifer. She was quick to take care of any needs. We will be back!

Needs a facelift

We have stayed Destin West 7 times since 2005. This rental company was extremely well to work with! I love the check in process! But we thought the unit could use some updating! The patio furniture was worn. The unit needs some sprucing up! But the biggest complaint would be the mattress ( or lack of mattress) in the master bedroom... my son called it “a prison bed”. It was like sleeping on cement. That is the main reason for the 3 stars.

Destin

Over all the condo unit was nice. It needs a very good cleaning. Few things need fixing, such as fan & light in living room. Ii was staying for a month, no real place to put your food that was not in fridge. Looks like some appliances might need to be updated soon. Pool and lazy river very nice, easy to get to beach. Diving into Destin or Fort Walton short. lots of places to eat.

Never Again!

We rented 5 condos for a large group of friends we all had issues with the keyless entry throughout our trip due to broken locks. Our condo was filthy the couch was peeling so bad that it left remnants all ovet the rug and our clothes. broken coffee maker. We washed the sheets and discovered a very soiled mattress pad. Absolutely disgusting! Our contact with David at Coastal Vibe Vacations was completely unapologetic and took NO responsibility along with calling my husband a bully! Who does that! I would like to state that the property itself is nice it was just the leasing agent that made our experience horrible. Never again, Coastal Vibe! We have stayed all over the US with VRBO and always enjoyed our experience. Do not trust David at Coastal Vibe and God help you if you have any issues during your stay.

Destin West is Fabulous

This is our second trip to Destin West and we love the amenities and proximity to restaurants! This condo has a great view and the management company is very responsive. Our only complaint was the sofa was shedding leather material onto the floor making the living room seating not enjoyable. However, we let management know and they are working on replacing the sofas. 😊
