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.

Family Getaway

The condo was very spacious and the patio was huge! We enjoyed the freedom for our group to spread out and not feel cramped. Resort was very clean and well cared for. Security is enforced well and wrist bands were required for entry into pool areas, etc which we liked. Condo was well stocked with everything we needed for the week. Would recommend and stay again!

Amazing property!

This was a great Spring Break vacation! It’s just outside of downtown Destin, but Destin is a quick trip across the bridge. Close proximity to grocery store, Gulfarium, shopping, restaurants. Kids enjoyed the pool, the private hot tub, and the amazing nearby beaches.

Great Unit

We loved the unit and proximity to everything. This is the 1st time to stay on the bay side and this unit did not disappoint. It was nicely furnished. The private patio and hot tub was a hit. We did have a couple of issues but Rick was quick in his response and resolve. We had a great family vacation.

Awesome condo

We took our kids and grandkids, 10 people in all, and there was PLENTY of room. The unit is in great shape. The condo is situated so that it is very close to the parked car. The ONLY negative was the patio was not pool-facing but the direct bay view MORE than made up for that! If we go as a family again would definitely choose this one.

Beautiful property

The property was amazing. I made the mistake of taking older kids with me. That were loud and made the neighbors complain most of the stay. So I worried about being too loud most of the time that was the only issue.

Family vacation

We stayed 4 nights with our children who range in age from 8 to 29. There was plenty of room for all of us and the large patio had amazing views with plenty of seating for everyone. The kitchen was stocked with dishes and basic cookware. The grill worked, as well as the private hot tub. It was within walking distance of the lazy river & the private beach. Also within walking distance of several restaurants and short drive to grocery stores.Negatives: could not get garage door to open, though there was plenty of parking elsewhere (so we did not contact property manager about this). No beach gear available (wagon, chairs, umbrella, towels). I only note the lack of beach gear as a negative because we had friends staying in some of the other condos at Destin West and their units did come with beach gear.Overall, we had a lovely stay and would stay here again.

First time Bayside

The expansive lanai and convenience to the parkimg garage, pools and lazy river were great! The kids were super excited to have their own hot tub, we were a bit disappointed to find out upon arrival that it was empty and broken. It was replaced Tuesday and we were all able to enjoy. The unit itself was very spacious and fit 4 families perfectly. The grounds were landscaped beautifully and the pool/lazy river at night was very relaxing. Very easy walk to the crossover to get to the beach. Overall we had a great time even tho the weather wasnt very cooperative!

Absolutely stunning condo

We took a family vacation with our kids and our grand babies and I honestly can’t say enough about this condo. We’ve been going to Destin west for 15+ years and never stayed in this unit and now I’m kicking myself. It has everything you want and need for a vacation. We had a small hiccup when we first arrived but rick handled it literally before we even unpacked our suitcases. It was an amazing week with family weather was perfect water was beautiful but honestly the comfort the condo provided us with we would have been happy even if we had to stay inside.. seriously more room then we needed but with that being said it made each of us feel like when we were in our own rooms like we were in our own condos it is seriously that large. Thank you Rick again for providing us with such a wonderful condo for the week... and yes pizza next door is really good and the fact they have a huge screen tv outside the boys in our party got to watch the ALABAMA game outside as well!!!!! ROLL TIDE!!!!we plan on coming back next year as well ;)

The condo was very spacious. We enjoyed the hot tub and the beautiful view of the boats passing by

The condo had a comfortable reclining sofa and nice TV's in each room. We had some guests visit during our two month stay. They enjoyed the condo and all the amenities. The grandkids really liked the heated pool. The kitchen had everything we needed and the old gas grill was replaced with a nice new one! Sadly, the weather was colder than expected with rain and fog several days. We ate at some great restaurants and you don't want to miss The Donut Hole! Best donuts I've ever had!! I didn't give 5 stars because the condo wasn't as clean as expected. There was no vacuum, just broom and dustpan and dirty dust mop. Would have been nice to have a mop and bucket. The rug under the livingroom table is filthy and needs replaced. Destin West is a nice complex and we would recommend renting this condo. (JUST NEEDS A LITTLE TLC)

Great Place in Winter

We had a great time. The pool area and proximity to the beach was great. We stayed in early Nov and there was often few if any people at the main pool area. The grounds are in great shape and the pools are heated at very nice/high tempatures. The unit is nice and updated. We really enjoyed it. The only two issues we had were the floors are dirty and your feet turn black quickly due to the owner not mopping the floors. In addition, he send us an email two days before we showed up saying various parts on the hot tub do not work due to damaged caused by a guest in March 2021 and he was fixing them ASAP ( we stayed in Nov 2021). Half the jets in the hot tub don't work, which was fine with us. Not a big deal. We just really hated that email 2 days before we showed up and it was not clear in the email what was all wrong with the hot tub ( we booked the place because of the private hot tub so we were about to try and cancel since he never disclosed the hot tub issues upfront). Fix the hot tub and mop the floors and it would be 5 stars, both seems like easy fixes especially for what he charges for cleaning/ nightly rate. With that said, we really had a great time and would recommend the unit.

About the host

Host profile image
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!
