About this property

Beach Front ~ Gulf Views ~ Spacious Balcony

Sleeping Arrangements
Single Floor Condominium |
Master Bedroom, King Bed; Guest Bedroom, King Bed; Living Area, Sleeper Sofa

From the south facing balcony and perched on the 21st floor you can take in the vibrant colors of the shoreline and generous salt air breeze. Prop up your feet, sip your tea and read the entire newspaper as you ease into your day at the beach.

When inside, the open floor plan flows easily from living, to dining and into the kitchen so you can enjoy the Gulf views from just about anywhere in the condo – even the Master bedroom. The kitchen has been updated with a crisp coastal feel of natural stone countertops and stainless steel appliances. There’s plenty of space to prepare a large family meal for a night in – or arrange a quick lunch at the breakfast bar before you hit the beach.

The beach – the reason why you’re here! It’s fulfilling to take it all in from the balcony, but now it’s time to get those toes into the sugar-white sand. From the elevator, stroll through the lagoon-like pool area and right to the beach access. As you walk through the pool area, you can grab a refreshment from the Tiki Bar (open seasonally). At the beach find your perfect spot and sit right down to a day filled with exploring, relaxing and wave-watching.

When the day is done, the condo’s comfortable arrangements will offer a restful night. Each bedroom has a king bed and the master bedroom offers an en suite bathroom with dual vanity for added privacy and convenience. Each room has a TV perfect for winding down.
If you’re after a little more night life, take the resort’s complimentary shuttle to The Village of Baytowne Wharf® for unlimited options of live music, dining, and great shopping. For family fun, enjoy outdoor movies, music concerts, magic shows and fireworks!

Looks great, but is not clean

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Sandestin. Great view, location, amenities. The last few times we have gone, the unit looks clean, but the floor is filthy. You walk barefoot in your unit and your sole of your foot is so dirty. No one mops!!! You pay money for a cleaning fee, but they are not cleaning like they should.

Nice condo but needs a few changes

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There were some things that needs addressed. When reporting a couple of things upon arrival, they offered to have someone come take care of it but I didn’t want our planned schedule to be disrupted from waiting on maintenance. The curtain going to the outside balcony was torn and hanging from the rod, about 2 feet on the end. Very noticeable when entering the condo. The bedroom light in MB sometimes took a while to come on. The dining room light was flickering. The remote for the kitchen tv was missing. ALL of the beach chairs and umbrella should be replaced, rusted and broken. On a positive note, everything was very clean, they have a few necessary amenities upon arrival such as a laundry pod, dishwasher pod, aloe and body lotion and soap. The view from the 21st floor was about an 8 out of 10, but still a view nonetheless. The staff checks in to see how things are going on your first day so that was a nice touch and were quick to respond to texts. Having 2.5 bathrooms was nice and most of the condo has been updated. The property grounds were maintained and has a nice pool. The beach was overly crowded so if you want a place to sit, get out there around 8:30 in the morning because this is obviously a high season of tourism. In summary, the condo was nice but not in the scale for paying over $600 a night, especially just for a place in Destin.

Month long Nov. stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in WestWinds 4849. The view from the top floor was beautiful with glorious sunset-watching from the balcony on clear nights. Posdibly the best sunset location of anywhere in Sandestin from this balcony, as the sun sets right over the ocean.Unit was well appointed with comfortable beds, roomy bathrooms, and the BEST equipped kitchen of any condo we’ve ever rented anywhere. Unit was clean when we arrived & all minor repairs/issues were addressed promptly, courteously, & efficiently.Pool area was lovely & being heated was a plus for variable Nov. weather. Hot tub always a bonus. Beach was clean & there was very little litter.Exercise room was adequate & clean. If you could add a scale that would be helpful.Having the rolling luggage carts was really nice.

Nice but a bit run down

We had a great time at Westwinds. The unit would benefit from a deep clean. The primary bathroom shower curtain was quite moldy. The kitchen cupboards and drawers were also found to be a bit dirty. Despite these small concerns, the unit was great. Bed was comfy and view unbeatable.

The entire complex is extremely clean and the people were very nice. The pool area is vast with various seating areas. The Tiki Bar was great for a quick snack, ice cream, or even a delicious frozen cocktail. Thank you MyVacationHaven for making our 21st Anniversary perfection!!

Short getaway

Overall this place was great and we enjoyed our stay! The view is amazing like pictured, the resort pools and beach access is also amazing! We did see and kill two cockroaches, I think this can be expected in these type of buildings? People mention about updates needed, I agree it could use some updating but for the price I do think this place was worth it. Unless I’m paying for. 5 star resort like sandals, I don’t expect perfection. We will return to Westwinds in the future!!

Love Westwinds

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is at least the 4th year we have stayed at Westwinds & used My Vacation Haven. Love both and wouldn't stay or use anyone else. Our specific condo this trip was good but slightly tired looking & not as spectacular as other units we have stayed in. Stains on the couch, tears in fabric on the ottoman in the master, some mold on the shower walls & shower curtains that were a bit slimy. Old sheet rock damage in the guest bath that was not repaired after a water leak. The master bath was a tub/shower combo rather than a walk in shower like we've had in other units and both tubs on the bottom were grey due to old skid pads to prevent falling. Kitchen was great and overall it wasn't bad & I'm likely more picky than most!

A++ View C+ accomodations

This condo is on the 21st floor of the West Winds building and and the view of the beach is breathtaking!! However, the room was dated. The sofa was tired looking and very uncomfortable for sitting. Beds were so-so...not super comfortable but not the worse. The bed in the 2nd bedroom was very squeaky and my son said he woke up every time he rolled over. We only had one hand towel per bathroom and one roll of toilet paper. We found a pair of panties under an ottoman in the masterbed room. The kitchen was lovely and well stocked with everything you'd need. Tubs were worn and master tub dripped constantly. Great, easy to use TV/cable. And again, the view was gorgeous. For the price, I was expecting the condo be nicer.

The cleaning crew does bare minimum. I don't understand paying a cleaning fee when you have to come in and clean yourself. I sent pictures to the management team of the dust that was everywhere when we walked in. It was very disappointing. The view however was beautiful.

Fantastic view, comfortable condo

Condo was very comfortable but a bit dated. Kitchen had everything we needed; however could use a new coffee maker. Master shower needs an update and right sink had slow drain. Other than these small details, we would stay here again. We are all about a great balcony with view and this one delivered! The sunsets are amazing from this condo!

Family trip

The view and everything was AMAZING!!! The things I had problems with is that the temp wouldn’t get under 75 degrees. The biggest problem was in the master bedroom there was dried up blood at the bottom of the sheets. I sent a text and picture to the 3rd party company we booed with and didn’t get a response about it. They did send someone to fix the air but it still wouldn’t get under 75.
