We enjoyed the condo, the master room was great with a comfy bed. The kids room is probably more comfortable for smaller kids, not teens. We had a great stay and we would return.

NOISY!! BEWARE!
Nice condo, but location is NOISY!!!
Very disappointed because the bedroom faces the
super busy road!!
Loud, speeding cars & motorcycles day & night!
Hard to fall asleep and you’re woken up super early!!
Condo is fairly clean but needs a deep-cleaning.
Nice balcony with beautiful view but beware of lots of screaming kids cause you’re right above the lazy river.

Great location!
We loved the Destin West Beach and Bay Resort. We stayed on the Bay side. It was perfect for us because we liked the lazy river. If you are more of a beach person I would recommend you stay on that side because it is a bit of a hike.
That being said. Condo

Needs a deep cleaning
This property itself needs a good deep clean. My child’s feet were black from walking around the living room with no shoes on. Also the master bathroom tub would not drain very fast when showering. We ended up buying stuff to unclog it. The resort itself is beautiful. It’s a haul to the beach with a cart because of going down one elevator, up another, across the street and back down again but the bridge over is convenient. Check in was easy! Our room was even ready before 4 and we were notified and had access early to our room.
The lazy river we referred to as the ice river. It was so cold our 8 yr old wouldn’t get in it and he gets in all water. The other pools were heated and felt great.

Amazing location!
The property is amazing, location is key as it’s close to everything the Emerald Coast has to offer! And the unit itself was nice… I especially liked the washer and dryer! I couldn’t find a flat pan (like to make biscuits), but it had everything else I needed!

Great location
The Family enjoyed the view and convenience access to the beach. Most importantly was the lazy pool (many pools) the kids was so hyped when they saw it. I was blown away that it wasn’t a typical ordinary pool. For me Destin beach…we didn’t get along so well because I ended up with skin irritation (eczema) which I’ve never had before and still suffering as of today. Overall the resort was an awesome place to stay for our family. We’ll be back hopefully next summer! (No beach for me)

Great vacay
Actually, had to leave about two days early, because my wife and it up in the hospital in Fort Walton and was transferred to Birmingham Alabama by ambulance. It was discovered that she had a brain tumor. They performed a biopsy at UHB in Birmingham. They put her on meds to make her safe to travel back home. We are grateful that it was found, but it was very inconvenient for our vacation. We believe the Lord has a plan though. She will be getting treated at MD Anderson in our house state very soon.

Awesome place!
The listing is exactly as Vrbo shows. The place comfortably fits 6 ppl. Property is clean and full of things to do with or without kids. Close proximity to pier and into Destin. I would suggest 2 things: replacing cookware as it sticks really bad but I did have everything I needed to cook. The patio furniture needs replaced (I actually passed up the unit several times bc the table looked rusted and it is). Overall, 5 stars as the unit is exactly as listed and would stay again.

Enjoyable trip
Been back to this resort 4th time now. This unit has lots of bath towels, trash bags and all essentials which makes me very please knowing I’m not running out of those. It was cleaned very well too. No sandy or sticky floor. Can’t go wrong with it.

Very nice condo
We stayed for 3 nights and spent most of our time in the lazy river. The condo was clean, pool was great, and the skywalk to the beach was very convenient.
