We love Destin West! The unit was perfectly adequate for us. We were bummed that we can't use the onsite fitness room anymore, and it would have been nice to know that upfront. The beach wagon and toys and chairs was a nice plus.

Perfect stay

The condo is exactly as pictured. Plenty of space for 10. The resort is perfect with everything you need and more. Location is 5 mins from Destin, 5 min walk to the pier, and you can rent pontoons next door at Ricks for a day out at crab island.

Good location, excellent pools

The location was great and the pools were very nice and well maintained. The condo itself was a good size and had good appliances and newer furniture. There were a few elements that were not so ideal: 1) the floor was absolutely filthy 2) the outer door to the balcony was very hard to open and didn’t lock 3)they provided limited paper products and trash bags

Place was in decent shape. Had an issue with some doors and was able to get fixed next day. 1 level up from pool. Kind of a process to get to the beach from this building- down elevator, go to diff building and up elevator, bridge to cross street, down another elevator to walk to beach, but the room had a wagon and 2 chairs, so that was convenient. We had a good time, and the condo was a good size for our 5

The pool & lazy river are the selling points

Overall we enjoyed our time. A few things to note: the unit could definitely have been cleaner. Our kids feet were completely black within 10min of walking barefoot when we first arrived. The curtain rods are questionable so be careful when opening and closing the curtains. There wasn’t a lock on the patio door leading out from the primary bedroom and the lock to the patio in the living room didn’t work. The condo needs towel hooks or over the door hangers as there was no where to hang towels. we went and bought one because with 8 people (6 adults, 5yr old, 18mo old) showering and going to the pool/beach it was absolutely needed. Be sure to bring or buy basic seasonings like salt/pepper if you plan to cook. Beware of the large step over from the living room to balcony; lots of stubbed toes and stumbles for our little ones. I’d say anymore than 6 or 7 adults would def not fit in this condo bc it was pretty tight quarters. The pool are however was absolutely amazing!! We loved the amount of chairs to choose from and spent lots of time in the lazy river. Walls are super thin so noise will absolutely be heard until at least 10:30-11pm. Not sure we will ever return to this resort but overall we have always loved Okaloosa for our family vacays so we will be back.

Nice stay but room was very dirty.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: DestinWest workers very nice but our Condo at Pelican 305 was very dirty.
