About this property
Hot Tub | 4 Kings | 700ft Lazy River | 2,417 sq ft
Destin West Escapes proudly presents Heron L01 at Destin West Beach & Bay Resort—a rare, fully renovated luxury lanai residence designed for large families who want space, privacy, and resort amenities in one unforgettable stay. With over a decade of experience on Okaloosa Island and five premier properties, DWE looks forward to being a small part of your family’s lifelong beach memories. This standout corner unit has been extensively upgraded for 2026 with all-new LVP flooring throughout, fresh designer paint, all-new cabinetry, and beautiful quartz countertops that elevate the entire space. The spa-inspired primary bath now features a luxury walk-in shower with dual heads including a rain shower and an expansive 10-foot glass design, creating a true resort experience inside your condo. The home also features brand-new sofas, a new dining table, and all-new master bedroom furniture, giving the entire residence a fresh, cohesive, high-end feel. Combined with the updated walk-in shower improvements and the home’s existing upscale finishes, Heron L01 delivers one of the most modern interiors in the entire Destin West complex. Size and layout set this unit apart. When you combine the interior living space with the same-level lanai, Heron L01 is the largest condo on Okaloosa Island (2,416 sq ft heated/cooled plus an incredible 1,400 sq ft private lanai). The oversized outdoor space is where this property truly shines—featuring your private hot tub and exclusive same-level gas grill right on the balcony, a rare and highly sought-after combination in the Heron building. Enjoy morning coffee, sunset dinners, or evening soaks without ever leaving your unit. Unlike upper units, you can also walk directly from your balcony down to the pools and private garage, making beach days and pool trips effortless. Very few properties anywhere on Okaloosa Island can match this combination of size, private outdoor living, and resort amenities in one location. Designed with multi-family groups in mind, the home comfortably sleeps large parties with four king beds plus additional bunks and trundles, giving everyone real bed space instead of sofas. Each bedroom includes a flat-screen TV, and the layout provides excellent bathroom access and privacy. The end-unit position means you share only one wall, making this one of the quietest and most private stacks in the building. Inside, the fully equipped kitchen with new quartz surfaces and updated cabinetry flows into a spacious living area anchored by a massive 86" 4K Smart TV with sound bar, perfect for movie nights or game days. A flexible fourth bedroom/second den creates extra hangout space for kids or additional guests. Hard-surface flooring throughout means no carpet anywhere, ideal for beach stays. Location is another major advantage. The Heron building sits closest to the beach walkover on the bay side of Destin West, and you’re within a short walk of restaurants, the convention center, boat rentals, the fishing pier, and Wild Willy’s Adventure Zone. The beach is typically a 7–10 minute walk without ever needing to cross traffic. Guests enjoy full access to Destin West’s resort amenities, including the spectacular 700-foot lazy river, multiple hot tubs, zero-entry bayfront pool, private Heron pool, beachside pool, and fishing pier. Our management team is available before, during, and after your stay to handle any needs quickly and efficiently. If your group wants the feel of a large luxury beach home with the convenience of a full resort—plus the rare perk of a private hot tub and gas grill on your own balcony—Heron L01 stands in a class of its own at Destin West.

About the host
Hosted by Rick Angle
It was always my mom's dream to own a condo in Fort Walton Beach. My wife and I adopted this dream and were fortunate to make it come true. We were blessed to be able to purchase units during the downturn in the market. After seeing this could actually become a business we started DESTIN WEST ESCAPES! Each year we improve on our ability to deliver a solid vacation experience for our guest. It is my sincere desire to be a small part of your families vacation memory making experience!
Why they chose this property
We have wanted one of the large lanai units at Destin West Heron for years. This one finally came available and we jumped at the chance to own. We love the huge size of this property. It truly feels like we get the best of both worlds i.e. the condo is the size of a large beach house with the amenities of a top notch resort!
