Grand Caribbean East features a terrific heated pool, hot tub, BBQ grilling area, outdoor showers, and picnic space. The complex has a friendly, helpful staff. Private, deeded beach access is directly across the street – less than a minute's walk from the building. 

Area Attractions:  

The complex is also just a few minutes drive from all Destin has to offer, including go-kart rentals, dolphin cruises, charter fishing, parasailing, Big Kahuna's Water Park, The Track Family Fun Center, and the Silver Sands Outlet Mall.

Several outstanding restaurants are within walking distance, including one of the most highly regarded in Destin, 'The 790 Cafe' located at The Inn at Crystal Beach and 'Beachwalk Cafe', rated one of Destin's best by Florida Trend Magazine. Grand Caribbean East is also within walking distance of Destin's famous Crab Trap restaurant.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Property was as listed. It was very clean and a short walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a. Ice place to get away. It is close to many restaurants and plenty of shopping.

Amazing Gem on the Emerald Coast
This condo was absolutely gorgeous from the beautiful beachside decor to the perfect location. When we arrived, we were greeted by the beautiful sounds of jazz music in the master bedroom and a tower of Nothing bundlets and a bottle of rose wine -- a perfect way to start off my birthday celebration! Everything we needed was provided and the location was convenient where we could visit the beach, restaurants and shops. It was peaceful and most of the neighbors were nice. We also enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Overall, we would definitely book this condo again whenever we return to Destin. Thanks for an amazing experience!

The place was wonderful. Just few very minor things would be. A few more forks as there was only 4 forks. A few more dish towels. Also, a non electric can opener. Everything else was fantastic. Thanks you for a wonderful stay.

Cozy and relaxing
This place was in a great location to where family was staying. We were right across from the beach with access at either side street by the building. The pool was warm and the hot tub was great in the evening after a fun packed day. The unit was on the 3rd floor with a great view. The kitchen was very nice with all the appliances you could need. The living area was very comfortable and cozy. The bedroom and bathroom were nice also with a king size bed. Only complaint would be closet space as there was just a small cubbyhole to hang stuff up in, but all and all would chose this place again for next year.

Great location
Location was great and for the most part everything was to our liking with the exception of the bed sheets that had blood stains on them. The blender also did not work, porch light was out and had some difficulty opening the porch door at times. I communicated these concerns to customer service and they said they would address it with the property manager.

Property was even nicer than the pictures show. Fresh paint and updates. Extremely clean and comfortable. Only downside and issue we had was the wifi connection is HORRIBLE. We contacted mgmt and they were very responsive, but wifi just is really bad in this unit - there was not much they could do to resolve.

My husband and I came for our anniversary and we enjoyed staying at the Grand Caribbean east. It was very clean! It was a short walk to the beach. All of the best restaurants, shopping, and boardwalk are just a couple miles away. You won’t be disappointed. Highly recommend.

Good location
Right across the street from beach access. This unit is on the 3rd floor and there are NO elevators. This needs to be specified in description. Pack light bc it is a trek upstairs. The shower needs to be replaced as it feels soft on the floor and the shower head had very little pressure. Otherwise the place was great. King bed was comfortable. WiFi was spotty. There was good response when I texted for assistance.
