Kids paradise

The location was great! My grandsons went to the beach everyday with their mother and grandpa. They were sorry to leave. I would've rated 5 stars but the unit needed better cleaning.

Great place, Great views, can't wait to go back!!!

We have stayed at other places before and the photos when booking look great, until you walk through the door! Not this place tho…what a wonderful surprise to find the place clean, smelled clean and the views we had were the absolute BEST!!! The text messages leading up to arrival, at arrival, throughout the stay and departure day truly made us feel welcomed and important!!! The grounds, pool area and beach were always cleaned! The staff we met were always very friendly! The complementary beach lounge chairs were a bonus too! We would LOVE to come back here someday! THANK YOU FOR EXCEEDING OUR EXPECTATIONS!!

My husband and I grew up on Okaloosa Island and love coming back and staying at Destin West. This unit is perfect- ocean/beach front views, great wrap around balcony to see the pool/hot-tub, and an easy walk over the sky bridge to the other resort style amenities. Also walking distance to night life and restaurants at The Boardwalk, along with the beachside bar next door at The Island Resort. The management group was very responsive and provided clear directions and extra information about the area. Would definitely stay in this unit again!

Gulf side 402 was a beautiful condo and perfect for our family vacation. We loved having coffee and eating breakfast on the balcony with the stunning beach views. The condo has everything you needed and we really loved the big washer and dryer in the unit. We will definitely be back.

Best balcony on Fort Walton Beach

We loved our time spent in this unit. The balcony alone made for an incredible morning coffee environment. Unit is in within walking distance of so much we rarely needed to drive. The beach is one of the cleanest we have been on. Wonderful vacation unit that I would highly recommend.

Great place with a great view

We loved our stay. The condo was very clean and had a fabulous view. It was peaceful to sit out on the patio every morning and even saw dolphins swimming. The amenities were perfect and the condo had all that we need for a memorable vacation. We would definitely stay here again. There were lots of beach toys available to use and we had fun playing Uno most evenings on the patio while hearing the live music close by. Thanks for helping us have an awesome vacation.

This condo was great. It had ocean front views and a great pool view as well. We spent most of our time in the condo on the balcony. The fireworks from the pier was a awesome show from the balcony. The owners were very responsive to emails. Overall very easy and relaxing vacation.
