Great spring break location for a family of 4.

Great location and views of the ocean! Our family would stay here again! Loved how we could walk to the bay side within 5 minutes, using the skywalk! The owner was great to work with and gave excellent ideas for dining! The beds were very comfortable!

Gulfside 209 was the perfect location for our vacation! The condo was very clean and provided everything we needed (we especially enjoyed the beach chairs and umbrella). It was within walking distance to the beach, pools, the lazy river, and several restaurants. We left the premises in our car only twice during the entire week. It was the perfect relaxing vacation, and we hope to return next year!

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.

May is the Timr

We chose May this year rather than September and what a difference. The weather was perfect. Our condo was nice. This is our 7th stay and 5th with Coastal Vibes caring for our arrangements. We immediately booked for next year! We tried a couple of restaurants this time and played some mini golf. Great vacation and love our friends at Cosdtal Vibes.

Wonderful Week at Destin West

The condo was perfect for our family of four. This is our second time at Destin West and probably won't be our last. We loved the location of this unit and all the beach amenities! Perfect! Thanks for sharing your condo with us.

Very nice property as advertised. Clean and up to date.

As advertised. the exterior of the property is dated and needs paint as well as the interior but overall everything worked and the unit is comfortable.

Vacation

This was our first time staying at Destin West – Gulfside 209. It was also our first time using Coastal Vibe Vacations and we found the process of making a reservation simple and informative. Our vacation in the unit was equally as great! We loved the view of the pool and ocean as well as the amenities provided inside the unit. We loved the option of going to the Bayside resort and using the lazy river! It was a wonderful stay for my parents, us and our teens.

Fall vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at Gulfside 209. The condo was very clean and updated. We liked the option of being able to use the stairs even though there was no elevator congestion. Our weather was perfect! Been staying at Destin West since 2006 and this is one of the best condos we've stayed in. Thank you!
