I would have given a higher rating but the master king size mattress needs to be replaced and was not comfortable at all. The rest of the condo was superb!
Condo PH05 exceeded our expectations! The condo was very clean, including appliances & furnishings. The view from the penthouse upper deck was stunning & you could see the ocean & bay. We will definitely stay at this condo again. Destin West Beach & Bay Resort is a great place to stay because you have access to the beach, pools, hot tubs & lazy river. Close to attractions, grocery, etc

Love you...txt us to stay in any of our 4 units in Sandpiper Bldg.
Beautiful place to stay...Great view, comfortable accommodations, easy access to gulf or bay and Destin or Fort Walton Beach...
We are already planing another stay here...
We really enjoyed our stay. Had all the amenities we could ask for. Went during the off season so was really quiet. Would definitely rent this condo again.
Our stay was great! We had to contain the owner twice with some basic questions. The communication was great. The resort has plenty to do. The beach being right across the boardwalk was perfect. We will definitely be planning another trip this summer.

Absolutely loved all of the views from both balconies. So close to everything. Condo is layed out nice and decor is very beach themed, which was expected. Loved the access to both the pool area and beach area. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again soon.
What an amazing find and great value. It was clean, the view was breathtaking and there were plenty of food options in walking distance or a short drive away. Highly recommend the beach service as the walk to the beach is not long but with limited things to carry having LDV set up chairs made it a breeze. The hosts are lovely, responsive and welcoming. My family will 100% be visiting this property again.
The bed was super comfortable. Bathrooms clean. The dryer door handle was loose and fell off. But worked fine. This is a favorite of ours.

I know you will love this Penthouse as you sit on the living room balcony or enjoy the best of views from the Penthouse upper floor balcony.
Why they chose this property
Me and my family really wanted to own a place that offered something special from the ordinary. After a long time of searching it was clear that Destin West offered amenities and features not found anywhere in the Northern Gulf Coast area. When a Penthouse came available, it was crystal clear that this was what we were looking for. No Better views exist of the Bay and the Gulf. We have gone over board to make sure the condo is sparkling clean and well appointed. Come let us show you how pleased you will be to select Sandpiper PH05 as you destination choice.
What makes this property unique
This newly renovated Penthouse is known for it Breathtaking views and comfort. 2 balconies, one off the living room and another off the roof-top. NO better place to enjoy all the amenities of the Destin West Resort.
