Destin West Gulfside #214 ~Free Beach Service! Great Resort! Pools+ Lazy River!

Welcome to Destin West Gulfside #214! My name is Frank and I will be your host for this great vacation property. This very nice beach condo is a 3 bedroom / 2 full bath. This beach condo is located in the Gulfside building at Destin West Beach and Bay Resort. The resort has direct beach access, many pools, hot tubs, and a lazy river. This is a great vacation destination.

I am dedicated to providing my guests excellent service and a nice vacation rental. To help improve your stay we provide extra housekeeping amenities not typically found with other rentals such as beach towels, laundry detergent, bath soaps, keurig w/ starter pods, and more. I look forward to receiving your reservation and hosting your group for a beach trip!

Notes... The bunk room in this condo has been upgraded compared to other units in the building. The bunk is a twin over full configuration. A door has been added to create an actual room rather than an open area. Another bonus is the sleeper sofa in this condo includes a unique 8.5 inch thick comfortable mattress. The sleeper is easy to pull out and much more comfortable than a standard sleeper sofa. It is very practical and convenient to use the sleeper for those guests with larger groups.

Wonderful Stay
This condo is a perfect size for a small group. The 3rd bedroom with bunk beds has a door that can be closed for privacy. We put the loudest snorer in there! Being a 2nd floor unit is very convenient. I used the stairs all weekend. However, that also means you are close to the hottub; so we had to deal with a couple of loud, late hottub parties (not any fault of the condo owners). The only reason I did not give 5 star review is because there was a musty odor in the condo for the 1st couple of days. It wasn't horrible, and it definitely subsided by the time we left. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Amanda was also helpful when we were having remote control issues. It all worked out. Thank you.

Love this place!
We were amazed! 1. The check in process was carefree. We went straight to the condo. We had already received our parking pass in an email and parking was steps from the condo. 2. We were pleasantly surprised to be supplied with dishwashing liquid, dishwasher liquid, laundry detergent, dryer sheets, toilet paper, paper towels, beach towels. 3. The pool bands were already in the condo (10 of them). The condo property is beachside and has a huge pool and huge hot tub. We also had access to The Island property next door with a grotto and swim up bar (I don't drink but it was super cool and had non-alcoholic choices). It had multiple pools and a heart shaped hot tub. There was also a grill with food and a tiki bar beachside. 4. Across a catwalk there is a beautiful pool with a lazy river bay side with amazing views. 5. We had one tiny issue when the internet went out. The owner responded immediately and the issue was resolved within minutes. The condo property is perfect for kids and the pools next door are perfect for adults. We loved this place and the carefree experience. We will be back every year!!

We enjoyed our time here. The condo was clean and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay like toiletries and cleaning supplies. The property manager was super attentive and texted to make sure everything was to our liking and to answer any questions that we might have. The nice sized gym was up-to-date with machines and free weights. We definitely recommend this property.

Exactly what it claims to be.
We had no issues whatsoever. It’s an older establishment that could do with a facelift but as far as what it claims to be, it was spot on. Everything was exactly as described and the pictures were spot on. The only thing we missed was the last river and pools in that area are across the road and while easy to access from the bridge, it takes a couple of minutes to get to. All in all it was perfect for us and we had a great time and would definitely recommend.

Nice condo and great location for families!
Everything was just as described in the listing. The location is perfect and right by the gorgeous beach side pool and just a short walk to the beach. The teens spent a lot of time on the Lazy River side of the property which is also beautiful. The beach chair service was great to have as well. Overall we had a fantastic time and a much needed break from everything going on in the world right now.

Nice place. Perfect for our vacation
We were happy with this condo. Had everything you need for a stay in Florida. Listing says 3 bedrooms but really you have two large, closed off bedrooms and one nook with bunk beds. The place was plenty big enough for our family of four to make sure everyone had their own space. You’re right across the street from and arcade and just 200 yards from a large restaurant/shopping complex. The hotel also rents jet skis and pontoon boats and has chairs that come free with the room.
