Luxury View

It was an amazing stay. My aunt is already requesting that we stay again next month. The staff is very nice and attentive. The beds were comfy and home decor was well appointed. We vacationed at the same time as a lot of kids out for fall break. However, we never heard any outdoors noise inside of the unit from the fun being had outside in the pool.

A wonderful Thanksgiving getaway!

This unit was exactly what we were looking for in our week away from home! It was clean, very spacious, and had everything we needed. We spent as much time as we could on the roof-top enjoying the hot tub, the sunshine and the view! This property is in a convenient location, and it is an easy walk to the beach and the boardwalk. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We had a wonderful trip to PH-09

Property was beautiful, clean, and in a great location. Destin West is our favorite resort in the area. We had a couple of minor issues and they were right on top of handling very quickly. The on-site manager was great and very helpful. I would highly recommend!

Wonderful week!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay in your condo at Destin West.. The condo was wonderful and we loved the roof top deck! The condo was in walking distance to lots of resturants and activities. The beach cart with chairs was perfect. We could fit all of our things in there! We will be calling again!

The best company to lease from.

Once again we had the best winter place to lease. Coastal vibes is quick to respond with any of our needs. The first week the Main tv went out and it was replaced the same day. The front door pock was replaced as soon as we had a problem opening the door with our code. Then we were bless with a new hot tub. Thanks again for making our stay a pleasant one.

Nice condo, great resort

We had a fantastic stay here at Destin West. The pools, lazy river, proximity to other activities, rooftop balcony, were all awesome. Our entire party enjoyed the stay. The property managers were very responsive to any inquiries and made sure we enjoyed the stay. The only downside (and I only say this because we traveled with a 2 and 4 year old) was the proximity to the beach. The bridge was great as it would literally be the only way to cross that busy road. From this unit, it was probably a 10-15 minute walk to the beach (I know, boohoo). The beach was beautiful and the boardwalk had an activity every night if you were so inclined to attend. I would recommend this property to anyone that has a medium to large party.

Vacation at home

This was truly a vacation at home. This unit afforded everything needed for everyday living and vacation enjoyment. Once we drove in and parked our car, we did not need to use our car. We had every necessity and luxury needed to make this a perfect week. We enjoyed the laziness of comfortable mornings with our coffee and the magnificent views from the front, rear and rooftop balconies. The Lazy River was used for relaxation while we chose the beach waters for exercise. The sunshine was just the Vitamin "Sea" that we needed! With several options for eating out within walking distance, we never had to rush to prepare food to eat. The owner and rental company take pride in the furnishings of this condo and everything was as expected. We enjoyed the hot tub immensely as we relaxed in the evening. The rooftop provided an excellent view of the holiday fireworks! Although we did not use the two additional bedrooms, they were available if friends or family had been able to join us. The master bedroom with double vanities and walk in shower afforded us all we needed for comfort. There was plenty of seating with two sofas in the living area, and with the beginning of football season, the big screen tv gave a perfect view. This rental company and this unit in particular is highly recommended!

Will Stay Again!

We loved the condo, location, and amenities! There’s nothing better than ending your day being able to get in your private hot tub at night. The kids loved the lazy river, and the walk to the beach was easy. This was our first time staying bayside, and we will stay again! The condo was clean with comfortable beds and having the beach cart and chairs was very helpful!

Coastal vibes is the go to host!

When it comes to rental host if you don't go with Coastal Vibes you haven't gone with the best. They go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as if you are in your own place. We always feel like they address any issues we have right away. Even if it is only as simple as a light bulb change

5-Stars

We couldn't have found a better place to stay. The accommodations were more than enough, we were able to sleep 8 of us comfortably. The walking distance to the beach was about as close as we could get without being on the beach itself. We loved the memories we made and enjoyed our time together at the pools. We can't thank Coastal Vibes enough for helping us make those memories. We enjoyed reading fellow vacationers stories and hope to one day return .

Rating of Heron PH - 09

Condo was everything advertised. Actually had more beach equipment than originally said. We had total of 7 adults and was plenty of room and most accommodating. Would certainly stay here again. Couldn't figure tv out and they sent someone over immediately to fix it. Simple fix in programming. Can't say enough about property or staff. Thanks for a great stay.

Senior Trip 2024

This unit was perfect for my daughter’s senior trip! We enjoyed the rooftop hot tub, especially to watch the fireworks. There were so many pools for everyone to relax in including the lazy river. The restaurants within walking distance were also a plus. We will definitely be making another trip in the future.

Majestic Getaway

Heron PH09 is the perfect example of a getaway for relaxation. The location to the amazing interior setup of the unit (master bathroom shower is hands down one of the best showers I have ever used!) is worth staying and never leaving but unfortunately I don't think that is possible haha. The view from the multiple balconies to the rooftop penthouse is the oasis of solitude when waiting beach time without the people. I would recommend Heron PH09 to anyone and I would look into it again myself for the future!
