Great sized condo with everything you could need! Beds were super comfortable! Easily fit 6 adults with their own separate space. Outdoor porch had great view and was perfect for morning coffee or family dinners! Washer/dryer was nice to have. Pool got a little crowded with kids but could still relax. Walk to beach was super easy - had a cart and chairs we could use from previous guests. Would definitely come back!

The view from the deck is outstanding. We saw dolphins 3 mornings during our stay. At night the lights change colors in the pools which is beautiful. So many pools and hot tubs. Very nice to have the walk over to get to the gulf side too. Kitchen could use some frying pans and teaspoons, but otherwise was well stocked. We had trouble with the whirlpool in our bathroom and they sent someone up right away to look at it. Of course it needed a new part, but he showed us how to still use it. We left and went down to Panama City beach for a few days and I already miss Destin West. So many friendly people there too.
Lazy River at night.
Fishing and boat pier.
View from the pier.
Stingray, birds, jellyfish, dolphins all off the pier.

Thank you for the five-star review! We're glad you enjoyed the outstanding deck views and those dolphin sightings, as well as the pool and hot tub lighting and the convenient walkover to the gulf. Thanks for letting us know about the missing frying pans and teaspoons — we'll restock the kitchen. Sorry for the whirlpool trouble, but glad our technician could respond quickly and show a workaround while the part is ordered. We’d love to welcome you back to Destin West soon.
