About the host

Hosted by Beach Time Vacations LLC

Host profile image
I purchased this condo (#603) as of April 2013. This was my first of three condos in the Destin West Resort. My other units are #411 and #605. I have made many improvements and changes to this condo through the years. I want to offer my guests a nicely decorated and comfortable rental for their stay at Destin West Resort. I encourage you to rent with me and welcome you into my condo. I find the location to be superb and the view is spectacular.

Why they chose this property

The Destin West Beach and Bay Resort is a premiere choice. Being on Okaloosa Island, it is a much better location than the nearby Destin area. You get access to the same beach and amenities of the surrounding area, but without the huge crowds on the streets and on the beach. This location puts you between the cities of Destin and Ft Walton Beach. You have access to all the same activities, restaurants, and beaches.

My unit #603 provides the best and most unique view. All buildings on Okaloosa Island are max 6 stories in height. Unit 603 is a top corner unit that is closest 1 bedroom to the beach. With the westward facing balcony, the views of the ocean, beach, pier, pool, city, and sunsets is all spectacularly laid out in front you.

At night the view of the ocean is lost into darkness at other locations. However, The Island Hotel next door casts spot lights towards the ocean. This illuminates the water and beach which provides a view even at night. It is beautiful and relaxing.
