The condo was just as pictured and had everything we needed! Lots of things to do close by and it was perfect to walk up the beach for entertainment! Only unfortunate thing was the unseasonably cool weather to start off our week mid March. Week started out in high 50's but ended in the mid 70's in time for us to leave. The unheated pools were way too cold to enjoy, as was the Gulf. But the scenery and condo were spectacular and the sun was bright every day so that made up for it! Would visit again when we could be assured of warmer water to enjoy. Heated pools and hot tubs were a plus!

We really enjoyed staying this Condo. It was very bright and nicely equipped. Absolutely loved sitting on the balcony and watching the beautiful view of the ocean. it was also nice being to have the complimentary chairs and umbrella on the beach. we also enjoyed the Gulfside and Bayside pool areas. Unfortunately the water at the beach had a lot of Seagrass and didn't really clear up until our last day, but we made the best of it.

We stayed in Gulfside unit 308 from 6/4/2022-6/11/2022. The unit was clean, beautifully decorated and the kitchen was well stocked. The location is perfect. You can walk to the pier, restaurants, shops, etc. Having the bridge to cross over to the bay side was wonderful. We utilized it many times to get to Rick's on the Island and the docks. If you book this unit, you will not be disappointed!

Great stay!
This is my second time booking through Coastal Vibe Vacations and was the second pleasant experience. The condo was beautiful and well-stocked. Beds were comfy as was the sectional couch in the living room. Coastal Vibe is always quick to respond when I email with questions-either before or during the stay. Some additional perks-two beach chairs and an umbrella are included every day with your stay. This would cost $40 per day if it wasn't included. The condo also had beach and pool toys that we were able to use and we appreciated that-buckets, shovels, boogie boards, a football, etc. In general I like the Destin West as it is walking distance to a beach bar next door at The Island Hotel and it is also walking distance to the beach-front restaurants and shops at The Boardwalk. Thanks Coastal Vibe for another great vacation!

Nice clean and comfy
We loved the condo. It was nice clean and comfortable. Few minor issue that I'm sure Coastal Vibes will address. Guest shower needs to have pipes looked at for slow drainage, they need some extra towels and wash cloths added to the condo and definitely need a new blender. We will definitely return to the condo in the future and highly recommended using Coastal Vibes!

This is our second time staying at Destin West Beach and Bay Resort, but the first time going through Coastal Vibe Vacations. We absolutely loved Destin West-Gulfside 308! The condo was very clean and well stocked with kitchen basics. Everything ran so smooth from check in to check out. I am already planning our next visit. Made many great memories.

Exactly as promised!
Great trip and a great place to stay for the week! We came in expecting a tropical storm the first day and was able to get in our room a tad early to miss the rain that ultimately missed us to find a welcoming place to enjoy ourselves for our vacation! Clean very nice and entertainment to keep you busy when resting after spending all day at the beach or pool! Easy access to all the amenities and family used the on site gym and said it had everything they need to workout and more. Great communication all around and will definitely look into staying here next year!

LOVE Destin West
We've stayed at Destin West two years in a row, and used Coastal Vibes each time. Coastal Vibes is so easy to work with, they answer all your questions or needs very quickly. 308 Gulfside is great condo, clean, modern and a great view. You can't beat the location, you can park your car for the week and walk almost anywhere you need to go.

Family Vacation
We love Destin West! I loved the decor of this condo and the beds were very comfortable. There is no dining table which didn’t really bother me unless we all wanted to play cards. It’s always good to have a good table for that but we made do with what we had. My only complaint would be that there was a little bit of sand in one of the beds and some hair in the shower. We had beautiful weather and had a great vacation.

We love the convenience of Destin West!
We have stayed at this resort before. It seems to have aged a bit since our last visit. One elevator (closest to beach) was broken so we took the stairs most of the time. The large pool was not heated so water was on the cold side, (atleast for us.) The pools were all well cared for. The location of the unit to the pool and beach can’t be beat!
This unit itself was perfect for our party of 4 adults. It was nice to have two private baths. The appliances were all good quality and worked great. Beds were comfortable. The view was amazing. The basic supplies left were ample and there were lots of towels. Even on nights with a lot of activity and noise outside we had no issues with noise in the unit. Overall the unit could use some updating but was still quite comfortable.
We will be back!

Beautiful Condo, Nice Location
This was our first time to the Destin area and we were looking for somewhere quiet for my family to relax (and have fun!) to do remote work and school for a few weeks. We loved the condo and area!
The condo was very nicely decorated and fit my family well and my young kids had so much fun in the little bunk room. It was a small space but worked perfect for them. There were not any desks but we made due with the little table and counter, but most people shouldn’t be working on vacation! There was also plenty of sand toys which was a nice bonus! The deck has nice furniture for relaxin and place was wonderful :-)
We really lucked out that it was November and we’re told that up until the second week it was extremely packed full of people but all had just left so it was very quiet. Most of the condos were empty in the complex. The only negative was that there was a floor cleaner sandblasting the floor for about 5 days that was very disruptive for work/school meetings, it would have been nice to have a heads up that the work was going to be done.
The beach was AMAZING and proximity of the building was great. It’s one of the last ones on the island towards Destin so it was fairly secluded if you walked in the beach in that direction. Since it was the off season in November it was fairly empty, not sure if I could handle the crowds here at other times.
The pools were quite cold aside from the two we found that were heated. When the kids could brave the frigid lazy river they really enjoyed it. It’s about a 5-10 minute walk across the complex.
Easy check in and for the few questions we had the property manager was very responsive, thanks!
Overall, we loved our off season stay here and will definitely stay again when we head to the Destin area.
