Our family rented multiple units and they were all great. Ours was as advertised. Kid friendly and in a great spot. Lots to do. Super clean and easy to access. Would definitely rent again.

My husband, son and I had the best week at Destin West Gulfside 209! The place was beautiful and offered so many amenities! This would be the perfect place if you had young kids. My son is grown now, but the three of us even loved the lazy river! My son also used the gym which was very nice! I loved sitting on the balcony late at night overlooking the beautiful pool and hearing the waves crash...SO PEACEFUL! Our condo was very clean and comfortable. The grounds and building were also very well maintained. Location was also a huge plus for us. We were able to walk the beach to the boardwalk or across the bridge over the road for dinner and also some go-cart fun at Wild Willy's Adventure Zone. I think the only time we got back in our vehicle was to take the short drive to Destin for lunch at McGuire's one day and lunch at Stewby's another day. There are many restaurant options within walking distance though if you didn't want to drive. We had groceries delivered right to our door and used the grill on the property to grill steaks one night. We could even hear the live music from The Island Tripp bar while outside grilling. It was a really fantastic family vacay! Can't wait to come back!

We had a great time at Gulfside 209! We had a few hiccups when we got there but through trial and error they were able to fix things in a timely manner! Their maintenance man was awesome! Gave us great suggestions on things to do in the area and was just a nice guy to talk to! The light switches in the master bedroom are kind of confusing but the wiring in big buildings like this are typically not perfect. So once we got used to it we were able to figure it all out. The pools were great! And having beach service included is a HUGE plus! We would definitely stay here again!!

G209 was a great condo for a family getaway. We spent most of our time at the beach and having the umbrella and chairs provided daily was great; get there early to reserve front row. The pool and lazy river were awesome. With the boardwalk being about a 5 minute walk, we only had to leave the resort a couple times all week. Another bonus is linens and bath towels are provided which always is not the case. The kitchen had all of the necessary items we needed and the check-in and check-out process was a breeze. We definitely plan to come back!

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!

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.

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.

BEST vacation in years!
I absolutely love this condo! It was so comfortable - the furnishings were so adorable. I had everything I needed and even some stuff I didn't! Looking out onto the pool and seeing the ocean as well was phenomenal. I love that it was on the second floor because I could either use the stairs or the elevator without any issues. If I had to pick something constructive to add it would be that I do not like having to wait in line to get my beach chairs. I tried to get front row the first day and waited in line for an hour and a half. I still didn't get first first row. Other than that, everything was fantastic. I always recommend this condo to anyone looking to go down to Florida!

Great place to stay!
The condo was just the right size for our family of four with a pretty color scheme and beachy vibe. The 2nd floor location made for a quick trip down the stairs to the pool or beach as well as up to the 3rd floor skywalk. We rarely even bothered with the elevator, besides unloading and loading the van. Parking was always easy too. The resort had very nice pools, hot tubs, patio tables, and lounge chairs for sunbathing, and we absolutely loved the lazy river! Also, the hot tub was emptied and filled with fresh water every night, so it was nice to know that cleanliness was a priority. We also made use of the charcoal grills to make supper one night. There were great shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and entertainment options nearby as well. Definitely a wonderful place to stay!

It’s the little things that make it feel “shabby”; glass in door of media cabinet gone, knobs off on media cabinet and cabinet in bunk room, crown molding doesn’t go to end of wall, paint peeling on closet door badly. Large cranes outside terrace doors for painting, putting terrace furniture in our unit for painting, all unacceptable. Left early.

We love this little condo!
We have stayed in this condo many times over the years booking with different owners. We booked again in January of ‘22. It has been a few years since we have been able to rebook and we loved the new updates.
We really want to book again as soon as possible. ❤️❤️

I had a family emergency and had to leave. I gave them notice as soon as I left as I had only been there two of the seven nights I booked. I had hoped they could give me some money back or credit for a future stay but nothing at all was offered back to me. This was the third time I had booked my room through this company but I will not use them in the future.

Had a great time, not enough time. They go so fast you know. Palm trees blocked alot of veiw.
We understand about palm trees. The rest of the trip was great. Condo looked good and was very comfortable. Thanks for the extra sheets and blanket, that we never used. But anyway, hope it was no trouble.

We absolutely LOVED the location of this room. Within walking distance of many restaurants, the pier and the Gulfarium. The amenities are great, beautiful pool on Bayside and Gulfside. The room was great but you can definitely tell the pictures were taken when the room was brand new (understandably). The room is a little worn down and in need of a little TLC. Nothing major but for example the couches and their pillows are very very worn, the kitchen counter is stained from many years of use, we kept having to fix the curtain in front of the sliding glass door because the drapery rod kept detaching from the curtain to pull it. Just a bunch of small things but the room could use a little freshening up to match the quality of "new and fresh" depicted by the pictures. The cleanliness was alright. There were lots of little handprints and slobber smears on all the glass within reach of a little one. Which isn't the end of the world. From what we could tell everything else was clean but it just puts a thought in your mind of "well if the glass/windows weren't cleaned, what else was skipped". Overall it was a great trip and a nice room.
