Perfect Weekend Getaway

We had a great stay in this Villa. We loved that you could open the patio door and the pool was right there. It was a quick walk down the beach to the The Boardwalk where there are many cool shops and great restaurants. I would recommend this place to anyone and we would definitely stay here again.

The place was clean and cute but the furniture was not comfortable. The mattress in the master needs to be replaced and the sofa was a struggle.

Great beach location!

Absolute best location; first floor poolside with the beach just a few steps away. Just a short walk down the beach to a variety of restaurants.The unit itself needs a few updates — the couch and the mattress in the master bedroom — and the sliding door latch needs to be fixed. The sliding door frame needs a deep cleaning with cleaning on a consistent basis. Because the master bedroom window looks out to the entrance to the resort, there is a fair amount of noise in the morning - people coming and going and garbage pick up.All things considered, we would definitely stay here again. David was very helpful and responsive to any questions.

Meeting up with family for a small Christmas get away.

The resort was very nice. It was too cold to swim but we did walk down the beach to the pier. If you a light sensitive and want it dark when you sleep, the master bedroom isn’t for you. Outside the window is the main walk way and elevator access. The area is lit up and the light shone through the window, even with the blinds and drapes closed. We were there 3 night and was woke up two mornings at 4:45 by the garbage trucks which picked up right outside. Needless to say, we never got a good night sleep.

Perfect beach stay

We love Destin West Gulfside & have stayed in a few different condos with the similar layout but this one has a door for the bunk beds which is very helpful for naptime & being on the ground floor is a major plus - would definitely stay here again.

Everything was wonderful. We were even able to check in early. One of my favorite things is the chair and umbrella service that comes with booking. The only thing we could’ve asked for was warmer weather but we enjoyed every day!

Facing ocean property

If you want something bottom floor, and close to the beach this is it. Many things to do at this resort and can sit right outside your room and look at the pool. Perfect for a young family that doesn’t need a lot of room.

Our stay at the Destin West Gulfside 111 Resort was very enjoyable. The room was clean and equipment with everything we needed. The property managers where great to work with and sent helpful emails leading up to our stay and at time of check in and out. We would recommend this unit for your next family vacation.

Gulfside 111

This property was everything we could have asked for. We had our 4 year old, 14 year old and his friend and staying on the ground unit was our favorite thing. The easy access to the pool was unbeatable because we were able to walk right out our door and be there. The same thing applies to the beach. We didn't have to take any stairs or elevators with all of our stuff in tow in order to get right to the beach which was absolutely amazing. The condo was pristine and clean just as the other reviews showed and they even gave us helpful tidbits about different places to try! The communication with the owners was so easy and their response time is unmatched. They answered all questions quickly for us and made checking in and out as simple as it comes. We will most definitely be booking with Coastal Vibes again!! Thanks for everything! :)

Summer vacation

Our family enjoyed our stay. The condo was spacious, very clean and decorated with a cute coastal vibe! It was an easy walk to the beautiful beach and loved being able to use the complimentary beach chairs and umbrella instead of carrying a bunch of chairs out to the beach. Having door code entry verses room key was so convenient as most of the time we were in beach/swimwear. We enjoyed the pool and lazy River! It was the perfect location and we had many enjoyable evenings on the patio while our daughter played in the pool. We look forward to staying again in the future.

This is our fourth stay at this location but first at this specific unit and by far our favorite of the four. The location of this unit is perfect for those with kids who frequently run back and forth to the pool or beach. I will never stay anywhere but ground level for this reason. The unit was very clean and communication with the property owners was so easy. I’m so glad we chose this unit and can’t wait to return!

PERFECT for a family!

This was our second year in a row renting from David and his team at Coastal Vibe Vacations, and it won’t be our last! David and his team were only a phone call or text away, and are always quick to reply to any questions we have had. They have been very pleasant to deal with during our last two stays with them. This ground floor property has a massive pool and jacuzzi just steps off the large back porch! It was also very convenient to the private beach with umbrella and chairs included. Inside was very clean and stocked with all the amenities of home. We loved our stay here and will be booking this property again in 2022!
