The condo was nice and clean. The only issue was the sliding door would not shut all the way.

The property is very nice. We enjoyed the pools and lazy river. The walkover to the beach is convenient.

Labor day weekend getaway!

Love staying at destin west! We stay a few times each summer. The condo we stayed in this time was a little subpar. The drier was broken and couldn't be repaired. The sofa bed was broken so it didn't sleep 6 people as advertised. Outside of the condo needing some updates we enjoyed our stay as usual.

Condo

The carpet was very old and felt sticky throughout the property. The bathroom towel rack broke off the wall within 30 minutes of arriving to the condo. Microwave top was hanging off the microwave when we arrived. Night 1 my husband fell through the already breaking 2 of 3 outside chairs available. Leaving 1 working chair for our family of 4 to enjoy our balcony view. The entire condo needs a facelift and upkeep. You can tell it does not see a lot of attention.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we loved our stay. The pools and lazy river were great! I wasn't thrilled with our room. The sheets did not fit the bed and we had to fight with that all week. Wasn't the cleanest condo I've stayed in. We had to go and purchase some things to cook with that were not available in the kitchen. We had to call front desk due to garbage disposal leaking. They were very responsive and fixed it the next day. We appreciated that! The couch needs a deep clean. It's very dirty. I would recommend the resort just not the condo we stayed in.

We stayed this year for February and reserved it for 2025 February.The restaurants near by are great.The coffee maker was defective but was replaced within the hour by the great staff. We had a good vacation.The only downside was the pullout couch. It should be replaced. Very difficult for us old folk to get out once sat down. Overall Destin West Resort is very well maintained and it is in a great location

Loved the place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall this was a very nice place, we had a wonderful time. Very clean, great location. Was missing simple things like pot holders, foil etc. Also, the rules in the pool area are NOT enforced. There was football, drinking in the pools and hot tubs, profanity, music brought in playing loudly with profanity, smoking in the pool area. This REALLY needs to be addressed, it was not a family atmosphere part of the time we were there.

The only hiccup was that the sheets on the bunk beds were a bit sandy and we rewashed them before use.

Love this place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed here 10 times over the past years, in different units. We were in pelican 502 this time. This one felt a little bare- no toaster, potholders, minimal kitchen equipment. The couch needs replaced and my daughter said her mattress had rips in it. It would be nice to have a dresser in the main bedroom, at least to set our suitcase on. And maybe some hooks on the bathroom door. The outdoor furniture was nice. Love the pools and the short walk to the beach.

A little pricy for what you get

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was an ok stay. The location of the room overlooked the pool with the lazy River. You can tell most guests don’t cook there, because I didn’t even have pot holders for the oven. You have a 5 min walk to get to the beach and have to take 3 elevators to get there. The location is close to a lot of things to do. The staff was very accommodating! We will come back to the area next year but probably won’t stay here.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This room was very nice and very clean. It had a lot of home amenities in the kitchen for cooking needs. Pretty view of all the pools and bay. This is my second time staying on the bayside and have stayed on the gulf side for the past four years. Such a convenience to be right beside the boardwalk and pier. We love it and continue to return! We also have referred many friends who return also along with some staying for the 1st time.

Nice Location, Room Not That Clean

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved where we were staying and being able to look out at the pools and lazy river. It was beautiful. Although descriptions lead to believe pools are heated, the lazy river wasn’t. Floors weren’t very clean, my daughters feet were turning black on the bottom when she had just gotten out of a bath. There were also no extra trash bags but we did get some from the front desk when we needed it.

1st stay and missed the mark!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Check in was fine, but when we entered the condo there was strong smell of cherry airfreshner that was nauseating but then the beds were not made up. It was just stripped mattress. When I called down to desk they were like okay-just come get some sheets at the front desk. I was like what???? needless to say that was upsetting and asked for the beds to be made up. No apology nothing. They came and made the beds. The weird cherry smell never left- I think it was imbedded in the old funky carpet. This condo definitely needs a face lift. Will not be returning.

P502 - Do not rent

The condo was very nasty. The furniture in the properly need updated as it was broken down, dirty, missing, etc. The pictures on the website were very misleading. We had to contact the management on several occasions to get broken items repaired. The mattress in the bedroom was stained severely, hard, old, and needed to be replaced before anyone rents this. I would not recommend this location to anyone until updates/repairs/mattress replacement was done.

Fun family vacation

The property and its location was great for our family. We loved how the resort was geared towards families and could be enjoyed by all of our children, a 14, 12, and 9 year old. The only time we needed to get in out vehicle and venture out was when we went to get groceries. Everything you need is within walking distance and is safe to do so. A short drive over the bridge and you're in Destin and at the board walk, where we enjoyed a snorkeling adventure at Destin Snorkeling. We will definitely be booking another trip.

Disappointed in the unit, loved the resort.

The resort is wonderful, the staff was friendly and helpful. Our condo was a disappointment. It smelled when we arrived, the brown shag carpet seems old and is stained (actually gross), you can't sit on the sofa without pillows (the cushions are worn out), the dishwasher made a beeping sound, the bedroom does not have adequate lighting, the mattresses are VERY firm and without a topper to soften against your body. We recommend the resort but absolutely do not recommend our unit until some upgrades are made.
