This place is amazing. Of course it's gonna depend on which condo you rent as to how well you enjoy your room since they are privately owned but we rented from wonderful people and had a great room. The pools and lazy river are nice and clean and very relaxing. The grounds are very clean. The sprinkle park next door... More

The Destin West condos are very much a great value for the money. The Lazy River and Pool are a great attraction. I had a condo on the second floor of the Pelican building. The view out the sliding glass doors was incredible. It made the area look like an infinity pool with the bay in the background. I was... More

Location is amazing! Close enough to walk to a few places if you want to, but not in the middle of all of the businesses. Busy area of Destin with restaurants and shopping 10 minutes down the road, not here. This is more quiet but still awesome beaches and crystal waters. We rented a unit on the bay side overlooking...

Condo was beautiful; Pool staff was rude. Stayed here last season and once again recently. Last year watched the pool lady walk around and yell at an elderly couple for having a cup of ice water in the pool. They left shortly after because she was loud and rude. Saw here again this year and she carries herself cold with... More

We were booked here over spring break in Penthouse01, gulfside sixth floor. Most of the commentary will be directed towards the unit, since experiences differ depending on unit selected. The condo was in great condition, and everything described on the hotels website was exactly as it was. Old world decor; one king bedroom with a nook containing a daybed, Washer... More

We stayed here two years ago and it was a great vacation. We decided to go with two other families and I didn't consider other resorts based on my satisfaction from the first time. However, two years later the place is not the same. First, our room was not nearly as clean as the first time. The walls had spills... More

We booked a last minute stay at Destin West on Okaloosa Island in Fort Walton Beach. We had villa 506, a gulf and bay view studio-like unit. One queen sized bed w/full refrigerator, 2 burner stove top, combo washer/dryer, microwave/convection oven. Lots of storage spaces for a fairly small unit. There were four of us, including 2 small children. We... More

I booked this penthouse thinking that there could be nothing wrong with it, boy was i wrong, the utensils were rusty and bedding was very old. The room was a nice size but when... More

I was able to stay at this resort for a full year (Jan11-Jan12) so I decided to write a review because I have some good information to share with you. Destin West Bayside has the lazy river as you can see in the picture and 3 heated pools, and 2 hot tubs. Gulf side has 1 heated indoor/outdoor (it doesn’t... More
