Wonderful stay

We were extremely pleased with the amenities both in the unit, and at Destin West. The condo was very tastefully decorated, was very well stocked with everything we needed. We had great balcony views of the Gulf, and the beautiful pool area. Coastal Vibe was so easy to work with, and ensured a relaxing stay for our trip (so much so, we extended our vacation). The beach access was great, as was the chair/umbrella service.

Beach chair service was great

On the beach in a five minute walk from door to sand. Having chairs and umbrella set-up included was great. Beds were comfortable. Tv and wifi worked well. Wish it were a bit cleaner, but was still a great stay.

Condo was as pictured. Check in and out was super easy. We had a light that went out during our stay and was replaced within 24 hours. Communication was good. We had a cleaning issue discovered when we went to shower and go to bed that night. The cleaning crew did come out the next day and asked what I wanted clean but maybe should do more thorough cleaning in the future.
