Location was perfect, the kids loved the pools, beach access was easy and fast. Make sure you get in line EARLY on your first day for the chairs/umbrella if you want to be in the front row.

Great Beach Location!
Great beach location close to the Okaloosa Island Boardwalk and Triptides Beach Bar for drinks at sunset. Walk past one condo complex to and a small beach park to the East and there is access to 3 or more miles of undeveloped beach on the Gulf for walking.
Honestly it couldn’t have been better. The space was very clean, cute decor (my kids loved the theme bunk beds with pillows) great location.

Room 215 gulfside
Is was really roomy, clean, comfy, & a beautiful view! They made it so easy for us & we wanted to stay a extra day & they let us with no hassle. I recommend 😌
Our family, of 6, had a wonderful time staying in this condo. The owners were very helpful with details on the resort, area, and communications. Beach service for chairs have to be reserved every morning, but we reserved the location we wanted every day. Kids loved all of the pools!

Fourth year coming to Destin and ranked top condo we stayed at. So clean and cozy. Stocked with everything you need. Very comfortable space and great views from porch. Rental company was so easy to deal with and never made you feel like a burden but a guest actually. Amenities were all very well clean and from my porch saw them throughly cleaned every morning. I can’t think of one negative. Second time renting from coastal vibe and always top notch. See you next year!

Everything was great! We had a wonderful week. The condo was clean. The beds were comfy. The beach access was easy and close. Cage our beach guy was very nice and helpful.
And the rental process was a breeze. We'll definitely be back!
This property was fantastic. Destin West offered lots of pools and space. This condo was clean and well maintained. We had plenty of towels and 2 showers. We went with 2 adults and 3 children and there was plenty of sleeping room for everyone. Kitchen came with everything we needed to prepare meals. We felt safe and the pool outside our balcony was very nice. Pool was big and Clean. And the beach was just a short walk away. They shot fire works off at the pier just a short distance away and my kids could swim at night while watching the show. They loved it. We look forward to booking another stay next year. We will definitely be back.

Excellent condo!
We really enjoyed our stay! This Condo was perfect for our family of 3. It was very clean and decorated beautifully. Our kiddo loved the bunk beds! The ocean view and pool view was perfect! We were able to walk to many restaurants on the boardwalk, the pier, and activities! Anything else we wanted to do was just a short drive away! We loved that beach service was included! We will definitely be back!
