Great location to everything. The gulf options for swimming endless. Then the bayside to swim also another great option. Then the pool. So if you love water this is the place.

Fun spring break stay!

We really enjoyed our time at Destin West. Condo was clean and nicely decorated. Kids loved the lazy river, pools and hot tubs. The beach was beautiful! We enjoyed having The Boardwalk close by for dinners, drinks and ice cream. We would definitely stay there again!

Great stay. One pool (the biggest one) was not heated but the beach, resort and condo are perfect. A little hiccup with the resort management and painting the floors, but Communication with Chris was good so it made up for it. I highly recommend renting here.

Presser Beach trip

We enjoyed the pool areas for the kids . Everything was in walking distance and this was very nice , So many sweet families all around enjoying all that you have to offer . We all agree the only change we would suggest is new rug in LR and new cleaning products for the floors. Other then this we had everything we needed. We would book again, particularly having kids, Great place to stay.

Nice property and responsive manager

We love Destin West. This was our first stay at this property. We loved it. A couple of small items (that we could live with) we addressed almost immediately, including installation of a brand new stove. Chris and team are all over it

Love Destin West

Condo was beautiful. Main issue was the king bed was terrible! It felt like you were sleeping in a hammock and not in a good way.

Updated comfortable and clean

We booked this condo for a beach volleyball tournament and it was perfect! The communication from day 1 was quick and thorough. I had some questions as we booked several units through different companies and hoped for them to be close. This unit was the nicest that we booked. It was more updated and had a great feel. It was very comfortable. The kitchen has everything we needed. It was a quick walk to the beach across the street through the sky bridge. Walking distance to food and bars. The lazy river and hot tubs were a hit. Will absolutely book this one again!

Destin West Bayside was perfect for our family. Kids loved the pools more than the beach!

The pros: Easy rental and communication from the property team. Super clean unit! Loved the lazy river and pools on the bayside more, it seemed like everyone hung out there so it was busy. Walking across to the beach wasn't bad, and the multiple pools were excellent! The elevator/parking/pool areas never seemed crowded, except midday on the bayside pools. I wish the lazy river was warmer in March so I could enjoy its beauty more! The cons: Needs more chairs or per room chair limit to sit by the pool because some people put their towels on 4 or 5 chairs then don't use them hardly. The oven and flat top doesn't cook evenly. The master bed is too hard and needs a memory foam topper deseperatly (the couch bed was more comfortable). The gate to the pool area slams loudly, when sitting on the balcony it dampens the otherwise serene experience. We loved staying here 4.5/5 ⭐️

Good location easy access to beach and pool. Not the cleanest place to stay.

Great location on the property and for the Ft. Walton/Destin area. The unit wasn’t actually very clean. The bathrooms were ok, but the floors were pretty grimy to be somewhat new. The linens are probably a few years old and need replacement. (Sheets pilling, flattened pillows etc). The master bedroom has plenty of space the mattress is quite firm. The queen bed has a slightly more plush mattress. The kitchen has plenty of dishes, cookware, and small appliances that you might need. The oven however had something previously cooked over. When preheating for our dinner a terrible burnt smell/smoke filled the unit and never really fully cleared (this was reported to management). Overall I give this unit a 3. It has several perks with space and location, but it could have been cleaner and hopefully management will address those issues. Not likely to return to same unit.

Relaxing Time on the Lazy River

The property was as pictured. It is already showing wear from the advertised renovation. I imagine it gets a lot of use. It was somewhat awkward being above the lower walk-out units as the balcony overlooked their patio and grill area. The lazy river was the highlight although if you are early to bed or have little ones it can get very loud at night. It closes at 10 P.M. which was nice. We found several nights the party moved from the lazy river to the balconies and patios. The condo itself was basic. We had to setup the TVs as the cable cords in all of the bedrooms were unplugged. Smart TVs would have been a nice upgrade for all of the TVs. The humidity inside the condo was a bit much. Everything felt damp all of the time. We kept the doors closed as instructed but it was always wet inside. The manager requests communication via text and takes a while to reply if you prefer communicating through VRBO as I did. Primary shower fixtures need updating, they are corroded and could easily cut someone’s hand. We did not use the jetted tub. The light switches work, although they too could have been updated in the renovation. Primary windows are cloudy taking away from the view. Doors, front and back, are very hard to open. I provided a list of lightbulbs to the manager that were out which did add to the worn out look and feel. I would book again at the Destin West, but I’m not sure if I would book this particular one again.

Nice place to stay.

The property is nice. We loved the fact that we could swim in the gulf, in the bay, or the pools. The biggest flaw we saw was the cleanliness at check in. They charge alot for a cleaning fee and the condo should reflect that. Overall, we would definitly stay here again, we had a great time.

Looked better in pictures

This unit was not adequately cleaned. Toilet in Master was broke and took almost 48 hours to fix. Refrigerator had mismatched handle that someone attempted to replace. And it was broken. Dryer vent was broken and and is definitely a fire hazard. Beds were difficult to sleep in due to worn down mattresses. Stove top was sadly abused and scratched. Shame someone would treat a unit like this. Overall, not a great experience for us. We won’t be back to Pelican.
