Nice condo
This was a very nice condo. The bunk room was a bit small for our teen (plus not enough privacy as bunk room isn't enclosed at the top above door). It would work great for small children though. Great view of the beach & pool. Very clean. Lots of blankets, pillows, & beach toys. We also liked having beach service (chairs & umbrella) included.

Great rental for small families
The space was great. We had a great view of the beach with direct beach access from the property. All of the popular things to do and places to eat were 5 to 10 minute walk. Destin was a also a short drive away with more attractions. The staff were friendly and the facilities were clean. Would definitely stay again and refer to freinds.

Great Unit at a Fantastic Resort
This is our second year at Destin West Resort and once again we were not disappointed. Our unit this year had a much better beach view and was more updated and overall nicer. The check in process was quick and easy. We love that it came with beach chairs and umbrella which we didn’t have last year, such a nice touch. We overall love this resort and plan to come back. Some small things that could have been better but did not diminish our experience. The master bedroom blinds didn’t close fully and the curtains were not black out so the room was glaringly bright at 7 am. The mattress in the master bedroom also was not kind to our backs but that may be just personal preference. We are so appreciative of our host for letting us stay in their great condo!

Amazing Vacation
We had such an amazing time at the Gulfside resort. The unit's proximity to the beach and pool elevator was unbeatably convenient. The facility was very well maintained and gorgeous. We took advantage of the beach and pool daily, and spent many evenings at the lazy river at Bayside. Included beach chair service at GS was really great though I had to be down there each day at 9am to reserve our spot for the day. We got placed in the 2nd, 1st and 3rd rows on various days thoughout the week.The pool was never full and we had easy access to chairs any time we wanted. The chairs on Gulfside do have some noticable wear and may be ready for update soon. The chairs on BS were much newer. We are happy we chose to stay on the Gulfside which had a more relaxed atmosphere over the party atmosphere at Bayside that wasn't right for our family. As for the unit itself, it was adorable, spacious and well stocked with games, movies, beach toys and kitchenware. Our only complaint was that we weren't provided with a dish rag and only given 1 dish towel. We had to purchase these items at the store along with dish soap, laundry detergent, hand soap and shampoo/conditioner (provided shampoo/conditioner samples were not enough for a week), though we expected to buy those items. Could use a new coffee pot. Plenty of blankets/pillows provided. The master bed was extremel firm, but the bunk beds were nice and soft. All in all it was a great time and we are already planning our next trip next year.

Comfortable furniture & bed. Well stocked dishware & cookware in kitchen. Incredible view. Quick access to beach. Great pools & hot tub. Close to many activities and other beaches. Very clean. Had a frig issue which needed to be fixed & response was very quick & resolved. Owner helpful & very nice. People at hotel very friendly. Car garage was power washed during our stay. We had a lovely month! The only suggestion I would make is a privacy screen on the deck facing the neighbor, but we had friendly neighbors so it was fine.

Fort Walton Beach Stay
We had a great stay at the beach. It was a little stressful since we were keeping an eye on Hurricane Ian. We didn't know where it was going to hit or how it would affect our stay. We ended up leaving Thursday morning instead of Saturday only because it was heading over north Georgia and that is where we lived and wanted to be home for that. Hurricane Ian didn't hit Fort Walton or our hometown so we had a little regret leaving early. Anyway, there were some things that I didn't like about the condo. I was very disappointed in the sofabed mattress. It was for my 6 foot 1 15 year old son to sleep on and it was like lying on springs. It was awful. We ended up putting sheets on the couch itself and that was his bed. Please change the mattress. It's not worth sleeping on at all. I was so cold the first night and there wasn't any extra blankets and the beds only had a thin coverlet on it. We had to go to walmart and buy a comforter and a blanket. In the kitchen, the cooking pans were very scratched and didn't cook well. We also didn't have a dishcloth or sponge to wash dishes with. There were dish towels so I think the cleaning crew just forgot to give us one. We bought some sponges at Walmart. Other than those few problems it was a great place. I hope the owner reads this and corrects these things to make it more comfortable guests.
