Great condo, excellent location, excellent manager

Review Submitted: 09/11/11
My husband and I stayed several days in this condo in late August, and were completely satisfied with our experience. Everything in the listing gives an accurate representation of the property. The location was just what we wanted: view of the Gulf, just steps to those white sandy beaches, good pool set-up and accessibility. Lynn was great to work with, and treated us with empathy and fairness when a death in the family required some last minute adjustment to our plans. We are very appreciative of that fairness. We will return to this unit, and recommend it to our family and friends.

My Wife and I stayed here for six weeks. I am not sure of which was better working with Lynn or the view of the Gulf. We had a very enjoyable time and everything was represented totally accurately. The Westwinds property is First Class facility and kept very clean and found it amazing that they heated that large pool all winter, You won’t go wrong with this unit and it is nice having someone so close to handle any need that may arise.

I booked this property for our honeymoon week and we had a great time. Lynn was great to work with, I was provided everything I needed well in advance of our trip down to Florida. The property was in great condition, very clean, and was completely as advertised. Everything in the pictures represents exactly what to expect when you arrive. We will be back next year for sure, had a great relaxing week at the beach and pool. Here's a photo from the balcony on the day before we had to return home, it was hard to drive back to Georgia after a day like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v373/denverp/71152a07.jpg Thanks again!

My wife and I stayed here for a short getaway. The unit was just as described and extremely clean. It is priced very reasonable. There is no need to pay the extra fees for booking through Sandestin. Lynn was wonderful to work with and extremely helpful. We'll definitely rent this unit again!

Review Submitted: 08/24/10
My wife and I got married a couple of years ago at the Sandestin Hilton and absolutely loved it, so we have been wanting to come back by ourselves and visit again. We had heard a lot of good things about the Westwinds building, as some of our relatives had stayed there during our wedding weekend. We finally got our chance a few weeks ago and had a wonderful time at Lynn's condo at Westwinds. The building and pool area are very well maintained, and the building is convenient and easy to get in and out of. The water was crystal clear and the beaches weren't too crowded at all. We will definitely be back!

My husband and I had a wonderful time staying at Westwinds. The condo was the perfect size for two people. The pool area is very nice and the entire complex was very clean, quiet and well maintained. It was so nice having a bar by the pool to order sandwiches and drinks during the day. The view from the condo was beautiful! The Westwinds beach area is very nice and not as crowded as other areas in sandestin. Lynn was very thorough in her directions of getting in and out of the condo and the complex. We can't wait to go back!

We just returned from a 7 night trip in this unit. The Westwinds is a gorgeous building in Sandestin. The condo was beautiful and in a great location. Our two girls (ages 5 & 8) loved the beach and pool. The Baytowne Wharf is across the street and had lots of fun activities for the kids. We would definitely rent from Lynn again. Lynn always answered my questions via phone or email and was very easy to work with. We are so glad we did not cancel our trip because of the oil spill!

Review Submitted: 06/20/10
We just got home from a 9 night stay in this condo. First of all, Lynn was so fantastic to deal with and she was very promt to answer my questions via email prior to our stay; and by phone when we first got there. We have been to Sandestin several times before, but never stayed in Westwinds. The building is the nicest and the pool at Westwinds is pretty much the best in Sandestin. One other thing was, that the section of beach in front of Westwinds is far less crowded than the area over in front of the beachside I & II buildings. We almost cancelled our trip due to the oil spill and the threat that it would be on the beach there. It was not at all and at the end of our trip a few tiny tar balls washed up but were clean by morning. The water was totally clear. We are SO GLAD we didnt cancel.
