Great spot for our baseball team

We came to Ft Walton for a baseball tournament (traveled from Texas). Destin West accommodated our team and coaches so well! Our condo was in a great location, was nice and clean. The lazy river and pools were great as a meeting spot.

Perfect!

The condo was amazing! Very clean and had everything we needed! David is so easy to work with and so prompt with any needs. The location is wonderful as it's close to the beach and just a short walk to the lazy river and the bay side pools which we love so much! Very easy check in and out! Already planning our next trip!

Family Vacation

This property is the perfect location to all of the attractions, while also getting away from the hustle of it all. Beautiful on site amenities and walking distance to food and shops!!! Drive into Destin or visit Ft. Walton on on the same street. You can also just relax in the lazy river order Doordash and stay at the resort. Everything was very clean, great open communication with coastal vibe and very clean and kept! Wonderful experience!

Great Location and Condo

The entire experience was perfect!! The condo looked just like the pictures online. It was clean and well equipped with all that we needed. Also, Coastal Vibe Vacations was excellent. We had a couple of small problems while we were there, and they had quick response times and took care of them immediately! We really enjoyed the pool, lazy river, fitness center and the ability to also spend time on the beach on the Gulf. I highly recommend.

Fun in the Sun

This condo was equipped with everything you would need for your vacation. We have stayed at the Destin West-Bayside four times and always love the convenience to the bay and the beach. As far as the actual condo, we wished for a comfier living room set up. I would also recommend a new vacuum cleaner to be made available to the guests. Overall, it was a nice condo with all the essentials needed for your vacation.

Greatly Property

Had a great experience! Property was clean. views were great. Location was walking distance from the beach. It could have been better. We had one small hiccup with the HOA not communicating about a water outage but the property owner was willing to accommodate other amenities if needed. Planning to take our family back!

Great property and location!

We loved our stay. Great location and everything we were looking for and wanted in a property. Pools, lazy river, close proximity to beach. Penthouse with roof access was pretty sweet, too! Only thing missing was a pantry or place to put non-perishable food items (instead of on the counter) and the floors were not clean. I wore flip flops in the condo while my husband and daughter did not and quite often ended up with the bottoms of their feet being black. Lovely accommodations and a lovely stay! We plan to be back!

Savanna T.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
The unit appeared generally clean at first, but we ran into several issues. There was a slight musty odor, especially around the bunk bed area, which raised concerns about air quality. While most areas looked fine, the shower and master bathtub had visible buildup and staining.We also experienced functional and supply issues. The hot water ran out after just one normal shower, and the toilet paper provided was very limited—the roll in use was partially used with only one extra roll under each sink. This left about one full roll for three people over a seven-day stay, and we ran out before the end. Luckily, we had a car to buy more, but this should have been adequately stocked.The biggest concern was how we felt. After less than 24 hours, multiple family members became unwell, and I continued to feel sick enough that we had to leave the unit at times just to get fresh air. This did not seem like typical allergies. A Teladoc doctor suggested using an air purifier or leaving and offered an allergy prescription for what could potentially be a mold or mildew-related issue.On a positive note, the pool and lazy river were great, but the waterfall was not running during our stay, and we were not aware of that.Overall, while it looks clean at a glance, there are underlying issues that should be addressed for future guests.

Beautiful Stay!

What an amazing vacation! We stayed at the Sanpiper for an extended weekend and it was so much more than we expected! The condo was fully stocked with everything you needed, communication with Coastal Vibe was extremely easy, condo was perfectly clean, well decorated, in a perfect location, and the association had so many amenities that we didn't even get to use them all! So many things are within walking distance and the condo's pools... just wow! Only thing my husband said he wish he had brought, a fishing pole. :) Next time! We are already looking at staying again. Thank you Coast Vibes!
