Doesn't Disappoint!

Just finished staying at Grand Caribbean West #306 for 10 days. The condo provided everything we needed for our extended stay. Unit was extremely clean and comfortable. Furniture appeared to be new both inside and outside on the huge balcony. Kitchen was well stocked. The beach was so close, we were able to see the beach condition flags from our balcony! The Gulf of Mexico water was incredible. SWV was awesome to deal with. They delivered everything they promised and more! We appreciated them checking up on us during our stay to make sure everything was perfect. This condo is a 5 star unit! You will not be disappointed, I promise! We will be returning.

My husband and I just returned from an 8 night stay at unit 306 in Grand Caribbean West and we had the best time. First, the unit was impeccably clean and well supplied with everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was perfect and it allowed us to prepare breakfast and lunch without incurring additional expenses eating out. The master bedroom was awesome! The king bed was to die for! We slept like babies as the mattress and sheets were so comfy! A plus was the wall mounted smart tv in the bedroom to enjoy. The bunk beds in the hallway were so cute. Our 7 year old niece visited for 2 nights and loved sleeping in them. They are definetly large enough to accommodate adults if need be. The living room furniture was very comfortable and appeared to be brand new. Now for the best part! We thoroughly enjoyed the oversized balcony which overlooked the pool and had the best views of the Gulf of Mexico. We spent most of our time on the beautiful outdoor furniture either enjoying an adult beverage or one of our meals. The size of the balcony was incredible and we felt special to have it since there are only a few balconies this size in the entire building. The beach access was directly across the street from the complex. The location could not be any better. To be steps away from the most beautiful beach was a major wow for us. Restaurants and shopping was so close to us, another plus. Salt Water Vacations was awesome to deal with and will use them again for our next stay at unit 306.

We just got back from an outstanding stay at Grand Caribbean West Unit 306 in Destin FL, Communication with property manager was great by text and email with all necessary information provided. There is a large open parking lot, so no worries about your vehicle. The unit is immaculately clean and well appointed for your beach stay. The bedroom is spacious, and the bed/mattress is extremely comfortable. There are numerous plugs for your device charging. The bunks are great for additional guests, as is the fold-out couch. The kitchen is perfect for this condo, especially if you have an extended stay that would involve more meal prep. The best is yet to come – a large L-shaped porch that has views of The Gulf of Mexico on both sides and comfy chairs for enjoying the view with your favorite beverage! There is also a large, clean, heated pool for those time that you don’t want to go to the beach! Speaking of the beach, the condo is directly across the street from the beach – they say 90 steps away, but I’m not sure it’s that many! When you go to the beach you will think you had been transported to the Caribbean: Pristine, white sand beach and clear blue water – just stunning! The sunrise and sunset views from the beach are breathtaking! Finally, a note about Destin and the other small beach towns: There are so many food and entertainment options, it boggles the mind! Every store and convenience that you can think of is available. A couple of favorites from our stay were Captain Dave’s and Baytowne Wharf Village! A great property, a perfect location, and wonderful hosts – Thank you so much Janine & Tom Yurkin! Can’t wait to return!

We stayed in Unit 306 (vitamin sea). Such an amazing clean and nice unit. It’s nicely furnished and up-to-date. Beds are comfortable! The view.. only steps away from the ocean and simply stunning, the view from the oversized balcony is breathtaking!! The property management was great to work with, Jenni was awesome. She went above and beyond without hesitation to make out stay pleasant. Clean, comfortable and honest, we give this unit and the property management a great big 10+. Thank you to the owners. We will be back!!

Loved this condo so clean. My husband and I enjoyed our stay and would book this again. The Ocean is just steps away, very nice pool and hot tub, great parking and the location is centrally located for all of our favorite restaurants. During our stay there were some storms that interrupted some of the electricity and cable. My husband made a call and we had our service restored quickly. Maintenace was at the condo to repair the cable outage so fast. I was extremely impressed how the company responded quickly to our needs. Very nice place!

Great condo and room. I am used to being directly on the beach but this does not feel like it is across the street. It is a very short easy walk to the beach even with kids haveing to go back and forth for the bathroom.

The rental was very nice and clean. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with all the utensils, glasses, plates and flatware. Close to a beautiful beach and a heated pool. Easy parking and lots of shopping. We enjoyed our visit to Destin. Looking forward to next year!

This was our first trip to Destin and we loved it. Our service was handled great. Our condo was very nice and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the balcony in the mornings. Our location was great, even though it was not on the beach but we were close to the Public Beach access. We ate at The Crab Trap restaurant and it was not far from where we stayed. It's a definite place you need to go. It's a beautiful area and would recommend it to anybody. The only negative thing was hearing the people walking on the floor above us.

This was my 4th time staying here, and using Dale E Peterson Vacations, and there is absolutely no better place to stay, in my opinion, than Destin! It is beautiful there, and so very family friendly. The Grand Caribbean West is very affordable, and only across the street from that gorgeous white sand and emerald water!! Will definitely be back next summer :)

We wanted a last minute getaway. When I was in high school we took our senior trip to the same area. On a whim I called and got a reservation for the same evening. Showed up some hours later, and could not believe how comfortable it was and how it was completely stocked with anything you might need to feel at home. We had an amazing time, and it was one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. There are also great restaurants nearby. My only criticism is the Wi-fi should be free. But I guess when you are at such a beautiful place maybe you should Un-plug

The hotel was great!!! It was very close to the beach. The price was excellent. We originally had a rental on the Gulf front, but changed the reservations because it was half the price to stay here. Crossing the street was extremely safe. The kids absolutely loved playing on the beach and in the pool. The hotel was only a couple of miles from shopping and very close to other attractions. We loved our stay here and will be going back soon!

This was our second stay in the Grand Caribbean. Check-in and out were much easier this time compared to last time when we had to drop off the keys at the office. The view of the ocean is wonderful! Close to shopping and restaurants. Will definitely be back again!!

My husband and I stayed here back in '99 for our honeymoon and decided to go back with our kids for a much needed vacation. It was great to be back in the area! As it was the first time we were there, the room was neat and comfortable and the pool area was very clean. We had a wonderful time and made friends with another family that stayed there at the same time. We will definitely return, hopefully sooner than later!

I have stayed at the Grand Caribbean for the last three years on my kids spring break. My kids and family and friends that have visited with me loved our stay. My sister and brother-in-law went with me the first year and they both found it to be very relaxing and enjoyable. My kids really like the fact that it was within two mins. from the beach. Thats walking to the beach. Plus if they didn't feel like the beach there is a nice and clean pool and hot tub. We rented a one bed and bath unit with two bunks in the hall which was great. A full kitchen with all your cooking needs. With the washer and dryer is also a plus, you can wash your all you clothes before you go home and that way you don't have to worry about having to go right home and start doing laundry. I have already made my reservations for Spring Break 09.
