Beautiful condo
The condo was awesome, very roomy and clean. Had everything we needed. Great location, enjoyed the bayside and loved the lazy river. The AC in the master bedroom was not working properly and it was pretty warm in there at night but on the day of check out someone was there to replace it. Would definitely book this condo again. We loved it.

Spring Getaway
Heron 307 was just the right condo for our needs as mom, dad, and 2 high school teens. We had plenty of space to relax, watch movies, and observe the storms roll in when we had bad weather in the area. On nice weather days, we enjoyed the balcony for sunrises. Definitely took advantage of the lazy river too. One of our favorite amenities!! This was our 2nd trip to Destin West Resort, Heron 307 was cleaner than past condo experiences in the area, especially the floors!! Clean floors, bathrooms, and counters are a big deal to me, and theirs won my approval. We can't wait to get back!

Great stay!
This is a wonderful place to stay. It's is spacious and even the balcony is large. It is large but yet has privacy. Nice bathrooms and big enough kitchen to cook and move in. Only drawback was master bedroom mattress was pretty soft. Would definitely stay again

Destin West Impressed!
Family of 4 and Nana stayed a week! Loved the lazy river day and night! This condo had everything we needed to get our vacation under way. If you have young children, make sure to bring beach toys, boogie board with you or purchase on arrival. They supplied a wagon and chairs. Manager easy to reach and prompt with reply. Left a few recommendations for upcoming guests. This condo is beautifully decorated and easy access to the elevator. Would definitely stay again!

Everything We Hoped For and More
The unit was beautifully decorated, spacious and clean. There was plenty of room for our family of 7 with room to spare . On top of that the Management was very responsive during our stay and let us know we were able to check in early. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone and everyone.

A nice place to visit
To be honest I was quite surprised by the condition of the flat (( the building was completed in 2004 )) & still the whole place looks beautiful & well taken care of… overall I don’t think this will be my last visit to Destin as I already have fallen in love with the place. Keep up the amazing work .

Repeat visitor at this resort
We’ve rented condos at this resort three times now. Resort is always well maintained. Condo was comfortable and kitchen well stocked with equipment. Shower head in with master shower was broken when we arrived. I was promptly contacted by the manager to discuss and sent photos. They sent out a maintenance employee right away and replaced the shower head but not with a hand held. We didn’t end up using the master shower during our vacation because the head sprayed water straight out and there was an investigation about water leaking into lower level condo. Kids love the pools and lazy river. Staff does a good job making sure Destin West guests show proof before entering pool areas. Would return again!

Great Time! Very Clean!
My family and I stayed here for Spring Break. My daughter's high school was playing in a softball tournament. There was plenty to do at the resort, and also plenty to do that was very close. It was a great location. The condo itself was VERY clean. The check in process was smooth, and we did not have any problems at all. Thank you for a wonderful stay! We are coming back in July for softball, and staying at the same resort (different condo, but the resort is worth a 2nd stay). If I could have gotten the same condo, I would not have hesitated to do so.

Enjoyed
Enjoyed our stay. The unit is well appointed and stocked. Even the pans and knives were nice. New couches. The beds were clean and comfortable. The family enjoyed the pools and convenience to gulf shore. The cleanliness was okay. I thought the floors, patio door and oven could have been better but no worse than I expected from a rental unit. I’m just picky. And yes, I’d rent that unit or another from Coastal Vibes again.

The condo is very spacious. We were able to seat 8 people around the table for our family gathering. The balcony is also great for those who need a little extra space away for too much family.

We had a wonderful week over Thanksgiving. The weather was perfect as well as the condo. The condo had everything that we needed and was very well decorated and clean. The lazy river was a bit cold but the other pools and hot tubs made up for that. We hopefully can go back sometime next year.

Good Vibe at Destin West !!!
We have stayed at Destin West a number of times over the years and has always been fun for the whole family. This year we used Coastal Vibe Vacations for the 1st time. The people at Coastal Vibe Vacations made it easy from check in to check out. As far as the room we stayed in Heron 307 had lots of room and was clean. So Coastal Vibe Vacations and Destin West make it easy to relax and have fun!!

ok
The condo was overall clean, except the kitchen could have used a better wipe down and microwave was filthy. Only the bare minimum was provided and that in which was provided was very cheap quality. TV's were very small, compared to other units we've stayed in. Probably the biggest disappointment was the quality and discomfort of the beds. They were all very cheap and uncomfortable mattresses. The master headboard wasn't even connected to bed and there was no furniture in which to put our clothing.

Destin Prices with Gulf Shores Atmosphere
Enjoyed the trip, but there are rules about draping items over the balcony. Two "Trump Flags" were proudly hung during our stay from two separate units facing the Lazy River. I asked the management company to enforce the rules, and they never responded. I can't explain people from Ohio and their unrelenting love for the former President, but enforce your rules Destin West. Keep politics out of a family resort.

Extended Family Vacation Priceless Memories
We loved our beautiful, clean and comfortable condo! This is the second time we have stayed with Coastal Vibe Vacations and they never disappoint. We had other family that stayed in a condo that was NOT managed by Costal Vibe and it was dirty, dated and run down. We highly recommend Costal Vibe Vacations, we will continue to book ALL of our vacations and stays with them! See you next year!
