Amazing Vacation!

I had an absolutely amazing vacation at Destin West Beach and Bay Resort. From the moment we arrived everything was spotless and well maintained and the cleanliness of the entire property really stood out. The resort itself is beautiful with stunning views and easy access to both the beach and the bay. We enjoyed relaxing by the pools, taking walks along the beach, and soaking up the peaceful atmosphere. The location is perfect and close to great restaurants, shopping, and activities while still feeling like a private getaway. Overall it was the perfect mix of relaxation and fun. I cannot recommend Destin West Beach and Bay Resort enough and I cannot wait to come back.

Great time!

I really enjoyed our time here! The beds weren't the most comfortable, but the location was great!! The condo was clean and spacious! The host provides the basics, plus more. The pool hours aren't great at Destin West Bayside. We were getting kicked out the lazy river at 945pm. I would stay there again though!

To be honest I was quite surprised by the condition of the flat (( the building was completed in 2004 )) & still the whole place looks beautiful & well taken care of… overall I don’t think this will be my last visit to Destin as I already have fallen in love with the place.

Christmas on the Beach

We spent Christmas in Florida this year, and this condo did not disappoint! 3 large bedrooms (not just a hall with bunk beds) made extra space for both of our kids. This is the largest condo we have stayed at in the Destin West resort and we have stayed in many different buildings. I would definitely recommend this condo for its proximity to the lazy river, upgraded interior, and spacious rooms.
