Sandpiper L01- We've updated even more! Just added January 2020 new granite counter tops with farmhouse sink. You will love walking into this newly remodeled condo with its fresh beach vibes and coastal feel. The owner has done a fantastic job remodeling this condo with soft pops of color all throughout the condo.
This spectacular lanai level unit is a one bedroom, a bunk area and two full baths with sliding doors leading directly out to the pool area from the living room. You will be able to enjoy your own ground space with a table and chairs for eating outdoors and a chaise for relaxing and reading a book while the rest of your family enjoy the pool from the front of the condo. How convenient is that? This condo features a full kitchen with upgraded appliances and everything you should need to fix a meal for your family. There are flat screen tvs in every room, wireless internet, and everything else you will need for a relaxing vacation. Sleeping arrangements are: king bed in the large master bedroom and bunk beds in second room. There is also a sleeper sofa for you to use, as well. This is a Lanai unit, which offers the luxury of having its own private gas grill and outdoor kitchens and convenience of access to the lazy river directly from the back patio. You can enjoy a nice cold beverage on your patio all while watching the kids float by in the lazy river.
Come and enjoy beach to bay access, a 700 foot lazy river, four heated pools, three hot tubs, a total of four swimming pools, and a kiddie splash pool. This is a much sought after resort and this is a convenient and bright condo.
I could go on and on about this unit but I think the pictures say enough and they do not do the condo justice. The only thing you will dislike about this condo is that you will have to leave it eventually.
Destin Area Information Destin is well known as the World’s Luckiest Fishing Village largely because of it roots as a top fishing destination and quick access to deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Destin boasts the largest charter fishing fleet in the state of Florida. If you have an interest in charter deep sea fishing – Destin is the place. But, there is much more to Destin than charter fishing. It is a top beach vacation destination. Featuring sugar white sand beaches and emerald colored water, it is an absolutely beautiful area. The town itself offers many upscale shopping, dining, and entertainment opportunities. Much of the development of the area has been done with luxury lifestyles in mind. Destin also has one of the busiest private airports in the country.

Property and location was perfect. My son loved being able to walk right out to the lazy river. I had several questions for the host before we arrived, and was answered back almost immediately. This will be my go to beach destination for Destin from now on.

My family and I have stayed at Destin West three times. We loved every condo but this is our favorite. Not a single complaint. I wish we would have booked it for longer. This condo was very clean and will be our go to unit from now on.

Condo was as advertised. Great location on 1st floor with easy pool and grill access.
Destin West is a great property with plenty of amenities. Pool, lazy river and beach access across the street. We have stayed at this property 3 times for softball tournaments over the last 3 years. We would definitely stay again and would recommend to others to stay here.

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Destin west beach and bay resort. We lived the lazy river and having a grill right out the back door! Our last night there we had a leak under the kitchen sink and Julie was easy to get a hold of and had someone there within minutes to fix it! We would recommend this place to anyone!

We've been to this property before and were so excited to come back. We had not stayed in this unit before and it is our new favorite. Great ground floor unit with a wall straight out to the lazy river and right by the steps to get to the parking lot quickly. We will be back!

Our party included 3 generations, aged 4 to 66, and every one of us would give this place 5 stars. We were there for a week and did the beach in the morning and the pools in the afternoon. Couldn't ask for more. Can't wait to return!

Lisa, we LOVE hearing reviews like this and so happy that we can provide a place that works for ANY age. We hope to see you back soon.
It was a great condo. We loved most of everything about it. The sofa bed was terrible and unusable as a place to sleep. We loved the linens on the beds and towels were great.
The location of the condo was perfect!
We left a check list in the drop box at the office as we left about incidentals that need attention such as replacing batteries in clock, etc.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry it took longer than expected to resolve the sink issue, and we’ll work with our maintenance team to ensure quicker responses in the future.
We really enjoyed our stay. Perfect location, etc. Unfortunately I seem to have left behind a long-sleeved aqua Columbia woman’s shirt & a pair of okivd green Columbia cargo capris. Please contact me in how I can get them back. My cell is 828-508-1404.

Not enough tiiolet paper or paper towels for 4 people for a week. Would have been 2 more adults and a child if not for Corona virus. Also thought gas would have been included in rental. Never had to worry about getting a gas grill tank filled.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay overall and will review your notes on supplies and grill details to help future guests have an even better experience.
Other than the terrible local traffic to get to and from anywhere, which is not the property’s fault, this was a great vacation!
Cons: Make sure you understand there is a long walk down an elevator then walk to the office and up an elevator to the overpass to the gulf side, then another elevator and walk around a building to the beach. We have young kids and energy, but I would warn anyone with mobility issues that the beach access could be tough.
Pros: taking advantage of both sides! This Bay side has a wonderful pool and lazy river that we loved! We also enjoyed the grill on our patio and direct access to the pools! The unit was clean and have everything we needed to cook, sleep, and enjoy our stay. We wished we could have stayed longer!

Worst condo I’ve stayed in on Destin west property.
This condo definitely needs help. It was filthy. The furniture is old and stained and soiled we covered the couch before we would sit on it totally gross. Lights In Either shower didn’t work as well as the floors were horrible. I paid a premium for this place and got an air conditioner that didn’t work properly but I was told on the phone that it working fine no one ever came out to see about it. These owners should be embarrassed by the condition of this place. Bring your own utensils, what they have there is dollar store junk.Never Again!

Russell, thank you for your feedback. After receiving this review we have carefully gone through our entire condo to look for the things you have mentioned. The couch is in great condition. We had someone go back in quite a bit later and still not seeing the issue that you mentioned with the sofa. There are no current issues with the AC. If we have ever informed a guest that we sent someone out to take a look, then we did. We have double checked the AC today and it is cooling properly and working fine. We do not take these types of reviews lightly. If a guest reports any issues to us, we address them immediately. We offer our guests multiple ways to reach us during their stay and wished that he would have mentioned any of his concerns while he was there so that we could address them right away. We do hope that others know that we take pride in our condos and do not leave things unattended if they are brought to our attention that we may have missed.

Disliked: Communication
Needs work
You can tell they’ve tried to upgrade but still needs work. Wasn’t very pleased with communication with management. I asked twice for our missing wrist band and didn’t receive it or a response. I asked for extra towels and got no response. I asked for a late checkout and didn’t receive a response until the following afternoon after checkout. The toilet in the master doesn’t stop running. The 7th bed is a small chair that unfolds and is very hard. The mattress in the bunk bed is so bad you can feel the board underneath. There are stains on the furniture and the rug is filthy and in horrible shape. They need to restock the kitchen supplies because they were missing some of the basics like a spatula to cook with. The louver doors on the bunk bedroom are not ideal for noise or light issues. The location was great and master bedroom was nice. It looks like they’ve done some updating but they need to continue.
