Wonderful

Gulf side 402 was a beautiful condo and perfect for our family vacation. We loved having coffee and eating breakfast on the balcony with the stunning beach views. The condo has everything you needed and we really loved the big washer and dryer in the unit. We will definitely be back.

First time visitors

Fantastic views in this clean oceanfront condo. We walked to the pier area for restaurants. Publix about a mile away. Destin village very easy drive. The management was very quick to replace our Kurig that was bad. Had a wonderful time.

Views can't be beat!

We had an amazing stay in unit 402! The views from the balcony cannot be beat! We have stayed at Destin West multiple times and this was by far our favorite view! There was ample space for our family of 4 and loved having daily beach chairs set up every day for us! The unit had everything we needed as well. Plenty of towels/linens, dishes, etc. Coastal Vibes was also very responsive anytime we had a question about our stay! We highly recommend booking this unit!

Awesome Beach View

Condo is well updated and very spacious and comfortable. Had everything we needed. Plenty of towels were supplied, which is not always the case. The property was well kept and had plenty of pools, just wish more of them were heated. Having the beach chair service included was an added bonus and the beach in front of the condo is a private beach for the guests only. Really nice !

A chance to get away

Nice location for an opportunity to get away to the beach. The vacation was relaxing and the resort pools and hot tubs were invigorating. Our stay was not without issues: the master bathroom light would not work and the door lock failed part way through the trip. Coastal Vibe responded very well and the maintenance man was prompt, friendly, and helpful with our needs and questions. In time of need prompt response was a welcome experience.

My husband and I grew up on Okaloosa Island and love coming back and staying at Destin West. This unit is perfect- ocean/beach front views, great wrap around balcony to see the pool/hot-tub, and an easy walk over the sky bridge to the other resort style amenities. Also walking distance to night life and restaurants at The Boardwalk, along with the beachside bar next door at The Island Resort. The management group was very responsive and provided clear directions and extra information about the area. Would definitely stay in this unit again!

Coastal Vibe Vacations is such a nice, easy group to work with. We stayed our first time in Gulfside 402 in November of 2023. We had such a great time that we wanted to stay in the exact same unit this last time we were there. We love how close it is to the pier and shopping area. We love that there are sand toys and floats provided for the kids to use. We have already been talking about when we can go back. (Trying to win the powerball, LOL)

Best balcony on Fort Walton Beach

We loved our time spent in this unit. The balcony alone made for an incredible morning coffee environment. Unit is in within walking distance of so much we rarely needed to drive. The beach is one of the cleanest we have been on. Wonderful vacation unit that I would highly recommend.

Great place with a great view

We loved our stay. The condo was very clean and had a fabulous view. It was peaceful to sit out on the patio every morning and even saw dolphins swimming. The amenities were perfect and the condo had all that we need for a memorable vacation. We would definitely stay here again. There were lots of beach toys available to use and we had fun playing Uno most evenings on the patio while hearing the live music close by. Thanks for helping us have an awesome vacation.
