This property is very nice. Everything you need is located at this resort. My wife and I enjoyed every moment. The property is very clean, staff was friendly, and room was superb. View of the ocean was amazing.
We loved the view from this room! It was perfect for our family of 3! We enjoyed it very much and plan on coming back! Would rent again from My Vacation Haven they were very easy to work with and super kind!

Very nice location and property!
This is an awesome 1 bedroom condo. It’s a corner unit with its own private hallway and no one above or next to you. The owners have done a nice job updating things like the bathroom, kitchen counters and appliances. It was missing some basic staples like pen/paper, Coffee filters and salt/pepper. We would definitely stay here again.

4821 Westwinds was fantastic! The condo was very clean and the beach access and pool area were great. We loved the ability to rent beach chairs and umbrellas and the bar/snack stand at the pool area was open during the day and they served on the beach as well. Parking was convenient. Fitness facility although small was very nicely equipped. Location within the area was great for shopping/dining and entertainment!

Sandestin is a great place to vacation. It has beautiful grounds, beach and pool. I would recommend Westwinds to friends. Condo 4821 is a one bedroom on 14th floor which my husband and I felt was plenty of room for us and had beautiful views. My suggestion for 4821 is: it needs new paint and a new mattress. The kitchen supplies were limited and need to be replenished. The bedroom carpet was dirty and needed cleaning.
The property was great! Good view with exception of being unable to see sunrise and beach access was blocked until 7am. GPS (AppleMaps) took us to southwinds - go one more building to Westwinds! MAJOR ISSUE depending on your perspective: people with their own chairs and setups could congregate in front of paid for chair/umbrella setups- even between the rows right in front of paid for setups.

Reviewer Comments:
We really liked the unit and the property, HOWEVER, the bed was in need of replacement! It was soft and sagged where people have slept so much so that my wife had to sleep on the couch for several days, and we left a day early because we were both so exhausted. We called the management company on the second but they said it was replaced 2 years ago and IF that is the case, it was very poor quality. Its a shame that this happened because everything else was so good.
Large door with screen / balcony next to bed was a huge plus to awaken with a truly amazing view from the 14th floor. Easy access to beach, adequate supplies, clean, etc. Sunset balcony (separate) great view and totally private. Unit is on the side of the building so sun doesn't hit main balcony until late afternoon. Right off the elevator (no sounds) so no long trek down a hallway! Near trash chute (oddly quiet too) and very convenient.
As a first time VRBO renter it seemed odd that info on condo doesn't come until 48 hours before arrival - a note a few days / week ahead with the process would have been great. Also, an unexpected text had final details regarding access codes.

Reviewer Comments:
This was our first time to Sandestin resort, and we were very pleased. The property grounds are beautiful, well kept to a very high level, which is a big difference than just renting a stand alone unit on the beach. Over 2,000 acres on both sides of the highway, all the shopping, it is very nice.We stayed in the Westwinds building and everything about it exceeded our expectations. I currently work in the field of facility support and I am knowledgeable on what standards and expectations are on public buildings. First, Security to get onto the resort property, security to enter the parking covered parking garage, security to enter the building. We never worried about our car getting broken into or things stolen from it. We felt and knew we were safe from any uninvited visitors. Second, The building itself is like a very nice hotel, inside and outside, the maintenance was very good, elevators all working and never a wait of more than 10-15 seconds, floors and walls all in very good condition. Third, our room was terrific, for my wife and I, the 1 bedroom unit was more than big enough, with balconies beach front and a side balcony that we could view miles down the beach. Everything worked! The pictures and descriptions in the listing were terrific and accurate. No surprises. In rental units, most of the time there is usually something broken or worn out. Not here. There were several very small things with paint and scratches, but very minor. Surprising to us was how quiet the building was. We did not hear anything from any of the other rooms. The location was perfect for us.Fourth, Vacation Haven property management company also exceeded our expectations. They had all the necessary supplies nicely packaged into the unit, the unit was spotless, they use the Hospitality phone app that has all your needed information, security codes, instructions, places to visit, eat, etc. Summary: Exceeded our expectations in all areas.
This property is absolutely amazing we had a wonderful time staying at West Wind. This unit was very clean and the staff was absolutely amazing we couldn't ask for anything else we will be back very soon

Amazing views from the Condo, from the beach, to the surrounding neighborhoods and the Baytown Golf Course. The unit has a lot of glass doors and windows. It was nice and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay.
Perfect for a couple get away. An ocean view from every room just makes the trip so much better. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. We would love to stay again in the future and will definitely recommend to anyone we know!
We loved the location and the property! Would definitely book again.

Great stay.
Good, modern property with excellent views of beach from 2 balconies. Highly recommended.
We had a great time. Time at the beach is always good. The unit needs some TLS. The trash bin was next to us . The hallway smelled really bad. Needs to be cleaned.
