Amazing Condo and Property

Amazingly thoughtful hosts (they even have a small pack and play for young children), great condo and awesome property. It’s a short walk to the beach and is in the middle of everything. My son absolutely loved the lazy river. My family will definitely return!

Awesome Condo to stay in Destin

My family of five really enjoyed staying at this condo for seven days. The condo had great amenities like plenty of beach towels, beach chairs, beach wagon, boards, floats, really clean and updated. The only negative is the Master Bedroom bed was too firm for us (didn't sleep well). Overall my whole family enjoyed out stay!

Everything you need!

Destin West has everything you need for an amazing vacation. The property has so much to offer for all ages. The location is great for avoiding the Destin traffic. This particular unit was well stocked with everything you need, including extra beach chairs, beach umbrellas and floaties. There was extra toilet paper, dish soap, laundry soap and even spices. The beds were comfortable and the unit was decorated nicely. We were impressed with the communication with the owner who addressed our needs and answered questions throughout the stay. Would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Shawn Tidwell/Linda Tidwell

We (Shawn and Linda Tidwell) always dreamed of owning a condo in the Fort Walton Beach/Destin area. That dream became a reality with the purchase of our first Destin West condo in October 2020. We loved Destin West so much we bought 2 more here and 5 total. We love trying to create the perfect environment and experience for ourselves, our guests, family and friends. We truly enjoy sharing these properties we love so much.

Why they chose this property

We already own Heron 408, so when the chance to buy this one came around we jumped at the chance. Destin West is the best resort in the area and bayside by the lazy river is our favorite place. The view is spectacular and the amenities are the best.
