About this property
Penthouse Rooftop Hot Tub/Sleeps 12/Largest on Island
Welcome to the Crown Jewel of Destin West
This is the largest and most luxurious penthouse on the island — a 2,416 sq ft top-floor retreat with sweeping 360° views of the Gulf of Mexico and Choctawhatchee Bay. Whether you're here for a family reunion, a group getaway, or a milestone celebration, this is the space that makes the trip unforgettable.
The Rooftop Experience
Climb the spiral staircase to your own private ~1,900 sq ft rooftop terrace. Soak in the 4-person hot tub as the sun melts into the Gulf. Fire up the private gas grill and dine under the open sky with seating for 10. During summer, watch weekly fireworks from your perch above it all — no crowds, no driving, just pure magic.
The Penthouse
Inside, every room faces the water. The open living and dining area seats the whole group comfortably, with a queen sleeper sofa and sliders opening directly to the balcony. The chef's kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances and a 10-person dining table — no one's eating in shifts here.
• Second master: two double beds, private balcony, bay and beach views
• Third bedroom: king bed with premium mattress + twin-over-twin bunk beds
• Sleeping alcove: queen sleeper sofa with curtain privacy and dedicated storage
The Resort
Destin West Beach and Bay Resort surrounds you with amenities most hotels can't match — a lazy river, 4 heated pools, 3 hot tubs, and a private beach accessible via a pedestrian skyway bridge. The marina on the bayside requires no fishing license, with boat slips available to rent.
Everything Within Walking Distance
The Okaloosa Island Boardwalk, Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park, Crab Island boat and jet ski rentals, seafood restaurants, and John Beasley Park are all less than 10 minutes on foot. You won't need your car.

View from balcony and roof top beautiful. 15 minute walk to beach was a bit but was worth the walk. However beach chairs and umbrella were not included in cost of condo. Nice pool area. Condo large enough to give space to 10.

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful views and spacious layout. We appreciate your note about the beach setup, as this can vary by property, and we’re glad you were still able to enjoy the pool and overall stay. We’d love to have you back again!
This condo is beautiful and spacious, had everything our party of 12 needed. Enjoyed evenings on the top deck especially. The hot tub and gas grill are great bonuses.

This penthouse has everything your family needs for a great vacation. The sunset views from the rooftop are breathtaking. Will definitely be returning in the warmer months to take full advantage of the beaches.

Keami, thank you so much for your 5 star review. We are so glad you enjoyed this condo and all it has to offer. And YES!!, you have to visit when the weather is warmer. We hope to see you again soon.
The place was perfect for our group. Well kept and very nice! A place for 9 to sit comfortably when lounging and plenty of room at the big table for 9. Easy walk to the beach and very nice pool areas. Great stay!

Glenn, thank you so much for your great review. This owner spent a lot of time making sure that he created a space for families to gather all together. So glad you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope to see you again soon.
We had great weather and the condo perfect fit for the size of our family. If we could just fix the traffic, it would be perfect!

Thank you so much for your great review. Oh, if only we could do something about it....So glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Traffic is just one more reason to stay at Destin West and never have to leave the property. :) Take care.
The property was as expected. Check-in was a breeze. Good communication with the Vrbo rep. 2 hiccups for us- the door handle fell off when we arrived and we found 3 cans of empty Scoal tobacco under the pillows on the couch. Other than we had a wonderful week at the beach!

Thank you so much for your review and the feedback. This is an amazing property and we are so proud to share it with you.
We have addressed and fixed these items you have mentioned and look forward to seeing you again in the future to provide an even better experience than the first.
Good location & good sized family room. We enjoyed the views and hot tub! But the place had none of the essentials (hand soap, extra towels, salt/pepper, only 1 trash bag, low on toilet paper, only 2 dish washer pods etc). Beds were rough / old. Most dishes and utensils were not clean and had food stuck on. The “4th bedroom” isn’t even close to a bedroom; it’s a pullout couch with a curtain attached to a wooden beam on the ceiling to separate it from the kitchen. 1 bedroom gets super cold and the other crazy hot. It just wasn’t worth the price. The units next door were cheaper and nicer all around.

Thank you for the detailed feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed the location, views, and hot tub — and I’m sorry the stay fell short in several areas.
Here’s what we’re doing based on your comments:
- Restocking & housekeeping: We updated the turnover checklist to ensure starter essentials are always provided (hand soap, extra towels, salt/pepper, trash bags, adequate toilet paper, dishwasher pods).
- Cleanliness: Housekeeping will perform a deep clean and replace any dishes/utensils that don’t meet our standards.
- Beds & bedding: We’ll inspect mattresses and bedding immediately and replace or upgrade where needed.
- Sleeping area description: We will clarify the listing to accurately describe the fourth sleeping area (sleeper sofa with curtain) so expectations match reality.
- Temperature control: Our maintenance team will inspect the HVAC/zoning to resolve hot/cold inconsistencies and ensure thermostats are functioning properly.
- Value review: We’ll reassess the unit’s condition and pricing to make sure it reflects the experience guests should expect.
Thank you for calling these items out — we appreciate the chance to improve. Team BBG
Beautiful condo with a gorgeous view! Only reason I’m not giving 5 ⭐️ is the master bed isn’t comfortable and the pillows are terrible. My neck hurt all week from those flat pillows 🤪.

Alena, thank you so much for your feedback. We do wish that you would have contacted us about the bed and pillows during your stay so that we can try to make it better for you We do appreciate the feedback and hope to see you again soon.
Amazing location and roof top with views of the bay and beach- love the amenities in the complex : pools, nearby beach bars, restaurants, putt putt, and more. Lots of room in unit- yet sleeping arrangements (bed layouts) a little challenging without a 4th bedroom. Furnishings and decor are older and could use some updating- especially outdoor table which is rusting.

We’re glad you enjoyed the location, amenities, and spacious unit. Thank you for your feedback on the furnishings and outdoor furniture—we’ll be reviewing those for updates.
The condo was amazing. The beds need an upgrade as springs could be heard popping as one shifted while laying down. Otherwise it was a beautiful condo!!

Thank you for the feedback and the review. We hope to have you back soon!
Gorgeous views! This spacious unit really offered the “wow” factor. Plenty of space for our family of seven. Easy pool access and an easy walk across the sky bridge to the beach.We loved the lazy river and bay-side pools; they were lush with greenery and palm trees. Plenty of chairs and tables with umbrellas.On the beach side, the ocean was crystal clear. The beach-side pool was huge, but had less shade. We loved this unit for the space it provided - everyone could spread out and still have a great view. The kitchen was well stocked. The only things missing were pot holders and scissors. We would definitely go back again!
