The owners spared no expense with the total renovation of this gorgeous 18th floor condo, overlooking the beautiful beach. Using fun shark-themed decor, the only thing you’ll find scary is the thought of having to leave! Westwinds is the crown jewel of beachfront vacation rentals in Sandestin.
The living room, complete with two walls of windows, boasts almost complete panoramic views of the beautiful sugary white sands and emerald green waters of the Gulf. There is a 4k Ultra HD TV including a sound bar for incredible movie-watching when relaxing at night. You’ll find a DVD collection with something for everyone. The game cabinet is stocked with your family’s favorite games and puzzles – perfect for a rainy day at the beach!
The dining area, with comfortable seating for eight, features a large concrete top table with an oyster chandelier. In addition to this, there are two stools at the kitchen counter. Adjacent to the dining area is a wine/beverage fridge, perfect for keeping all of your favorite beverages cold!
The kitchen, featuring Vetrazzo countertops with recycled glass and oyster shells, is completely outfitted for entertaining. From sea-inspired tableware and glassware to beautiful serving platters and bowls, each meal at the beach can be a special one.
All three bathrooms feature new cabinetry, new quartzite countertops, new tile and beautiful new fixtures. You’ll feel like you are staying at a five-star resort!
Each bedroom features a down comforter, with sea-inspired décor. Whether you are in the “Sunrise Room” – painted in the exact same coral color as the beautiful sunrise at the beach, the Shark-themed bunk room, or the “Sea Coral” master suite, you’ll feel right at home. The master suite also features a Bose Wave clock radio/CD player. There is a wall mounted TV in each of the bedrooms.
At Westwinds there is a lot to enjoy besides the beach. You will find one of the most luxurious pool areas (with seasonal concession/bar) and a kid's pool. A Jacuzzi is provided for adult use. There is also a well-equipped workout room overlooking the gorgeous pool.
Beyond the pool is the sugar sand beach. You may choose to rent chairs and umbrellas from the resort, or you may bring your own.
At Westwinds, you can walk to your choice of restaurants on the beach, including The Beach House and Barefoots Beach Bar and Grill at the Sandestin Hilton. There are two additional restaurants inside The Hilton, which are open for our guests as well. You can also walk to the Serenity by the Sea Spa at the Hilton.
When you stay at the Smith Shark Shack, you also get complimentary access to the shuttle that runs throughout the Sandestin Resort. So, leave the car at the condo and enjoy a night out shuttling to the fun places in Sandestin including Baytowne Wharf!

Thank you so much for your feedback! We were happy to have you stay with us again! While the owners spare no expense to make this property the luxurious beachfront retreat that it is, mattress comfort is subjective and the owners prefer a softer mattress. They did investigate when they came down after your departure to ensure there wasn't an issue with the mattress or frame and found everything to be in perfect condition. I'm not sure if you tried the king mattress in the second guest bedroom, but that mattress may be more to your liking when you hopefully visit us again soon!

Dear Keith, We thank you for sharing your thoughts on this absolutely gorgeous condo. The reason the water was shut off is that all units in Westwinds have a water sensor that recognizes if there is a possible leak. It is a highly sensitive system . For example: if there is some water near the base of the toilet the water will shut off thinking there is a leak. If this occurs we want our guest to call the office and let us go through the proper process to get it back on. I know you did call early on a Sunday because I got the after hours call. While I was in the process of notifying Westwinds maintenance, you found the last resort way to turn it back on. For liability reason we prefer guest let us know so we can determine if it is a false alarm or truly a leak. I received a text stating the water had been restored. We reached out the following day and left a voice message. So sorry for any confusion. Despite the water issue, we are pleased you gave high high ratings in all categories. Remember, returning guest receive a 10% discount on any of Platinum Vacations properties. We hope to have you visit again int he near future. Regards, Platinum Vacations of Destin.

Dear Audra, We are very pleased to have you as a returning guest of the gorgeous condo. I am not sure what number you called at 4:0O PM CST since our office does not close until 5:00 CST. We would have immediately assisted you in restoring the water to the condo since the sensitive water alarm went off. This system is suppose to help detect any leaks that might occur in the condo however; a small amount of water on the floor can sometimes set it off. We will be placing some detailed instructions in the unit so that guest will know what to do in the event it happens to them. We have decided to follow through with your suggestion on a few additional amenity items such as the trash bags and soap. I agree this would be nice to provide the guest with a few more housekeeping amenities. We hope to see you again soon. Remember, all returning guest get a 5% repeat guest discount. Also, make sure to book directly with Platinum Vacations of Destin to avoid additional service fees. Make sure to tell all your friends!

Hi Audra, Thanks for sharing that you enjoyed your accommodations at Sandestin. An upcoming guest will appreciate the helpful information on where to hunker down a the beach. We do supply an initial supply of paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, soaps, dish-washing detergent etc. This is so if the guest checks in late at night they can make it a few days before having to purchase these items at the grocery store. Vacation Rentals are different from Hotels in this manner. We also share all of this information in our fabulous app. It has maps of the property and the shuttle. Perhaps you did not down load the app. Its a great tool for our guest all on your phone! It is a Hospitality Rules and Regulations law that we do not leave any edible items in the condo for health reasons. This is why there was not salt and pepper. It use to be companies provided coffee filters however; most condos do not use this type of coffee pot any longer. They use the coffee pods instead. Again, we are happy you enjoyed your stay and remember you will receive a 10% discount on you next stay. Regards, Platinum Services
