    This is a world class destination for those seeking a luxurious “beach chic” experience in an upscale, lush, relaxed, & serene tropical setting. The Cottage de Caribe is located in the exclusive, private beach/gulf side & gated Neighborhood of Caribe. The tropical landscaped neighborhood provides: private beach access, 2 private community pools, a lake, and a private tennis court for use during your stay. It is the absolute perfect CENTRAL location to enjoy all the gulf coast has to offer.

    This architecturally Caribbean inspired neighborhood is located within a few miles on either side of some of the most sought after tourist destinations in the world including: Destin, Scenic Highway 98, Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort, SilverSands Factory Outlet Mall, The Village of Baytown Warf, Big Kahunas Water Park, Destin Commons & Harbor Walk Village & Marina. It is just a few miles from the start of Scenic Highway 30A (with towns like Rosemary Beach, Grayton, Beach, Water Color, and Seaside to enjoy) Whether it’s deep sea fishing, jet skiing, snorkeling, relaxing on the beach, dining, family activities, golf, spa, shopping, or nightlife… The Cottage de Caribe is perfect for either a single family, romantic getaway, girls weekend, guys “getaway” weekend, mother/daughter trip, or tranquility for songwriters and writers alike. The Cottage de Caribe is the perfect location to enjoy an unforgettable vacation. If you are looking for a unique vacation vs. the run of the mill uninspired condominium/hotel with overcrowded beaches and noisy neighbors… Look no further… The Cottage de Caribe is waiting for you!

    The Cottage de Caribe is a unique and rare Emerald coast gem which is nestled in the back of a main property. All guests will have private, uninterrupted access to the outdoor living space while there. This tropical and chic cottage has two large vibrant kumquat trees which lend entrance into The Cottage de Caribe. This luxurious, modern, cottage was architecturally created by an interior decorator. The Cottage de Caribe can sleep up to 2. It is a 1 bedroom / 1 bath loft bedroom with a queen sofa sleeper downstairs.

    The exquisite cottage boasts many features including the main living area with an open floor plan lined with slate flooring for those hot Florida days. A bountiful amount of natural sunlight beams throughout the cottage. The main living room includes seating for 6 with a cozy queen sleeper sofa, coffee tables, 2 Caribbean style bamboo chairs, TV/DVD and Wi-Fi Internet. Upscale cabinetry with glass shelving lend to its design appeal with tropical accessories, art and decor throughout the home. The main living room also has a kitchenette, which includes a small refrigerator, microwave, electric griddle, counter-top convection oven, toaster, blender, combo K-cup and 12 cup coffee maker, tropical designer plates and glass ware (There is no dishwasher or traditional oven) The main room also features a commercial grade stackable washer dryer unit, tucked away inside its own closet. The dining table seats 6 comfortably for your enjoyment. The bathroom is on the 1st level. It features a stone tiled bathroom floor and shower, an above deck sink, with unique handles and lighting fixtures. The spiral staircase leads to the accommodating loft upstairs where slanted ceilings and a retro style Murphy bed adorn the room.
    .
    The outdoor living space provides an additional tranquil space to enjoy, where a lush private courtyard garden hosts a flowing water fountain. Alfresco dining is one of the many pleasures to take advantage of during your stay. Enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner on a wrought iron picnic table. During the evenings you can relax and enjoy the twinkle lit strung patio lights, listen to the tree frogs, and enjoy the summer breeze. The garden courtyard also has an outdoor shower and a grill on the property for your outdoor grilling of hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken, steak… etc. Enjoy the stroll down to the sugar white beaches which are within walking distance (approximately 5 minutes). If you choose you can take the provided 2 bicycles or drive as there are community parking spaces available) Caribe offers two private beach access points onto the beach. Again, this is one of the few beaches on the Emerald Coast which is private. As a guest, you can also have the privilege of having beach chairs set up for either a daily or weekly fee. The two private community pools are a nice bonus when you have children are just want to relax. There are also umbrella picnic tables at each pool, should you decide to a pack a lunch. Whether you are here to enjoy long sunny beach afternoons, breathtaking sunsets, or moonlit strolls, the privacy and beauty of the beach in Caribe is unparalleled to most beaches along the Emerald Coast.

A slice of Heaven!

Where to start? The cottage is adorable and has everything you might need. The neighborhood is terrific with a Caribbean feel, pastel houses, porches and sidewalks. Super clean. The beach is probably the best I've ever been on and I am a beach person! white fine sand, super clear water, private, private, private! and anyone we met from workers to owners were polite and friendly. Hoping to return!

Spring Break Fun

Overall this place is quiet and secluded and a 10 minute walk to its private beach. However, we did not give it 5 stars because:Sofa was slip-covered, and the most uncomfortable thing we’ve ever sat upon!!!The gate code provided in the welcome instructions was incorrect. If we had been unable to not reach our landlord, it would’ve been a nightmare, as it was late. Advertised as “meticulously prepared” but everything looked just a bit tired. New paint on the walls, repair of the missing rocks in the rock floor of the bathroom, and raise the bed in the loft would go a long way. The mattress being on the low platform was just a bit tough getting down to and up out of. Minimal plastic drinkware. The outside dining table appeared very dirty and not cleaned for a long time. As well, the leaves and tree debris on the patio have not been blown off either. We repaired one of the spindles (or balustrades) on the spiral staircase that had come loose. We felt to leave it that way was a safety hazard.There are some glass shelves with side of the fireplace that appear to have not been cleaned in ages. As well, the window sills were pretty grubby and mossy. When we first entered the cottage, it smelled rather musty and as if it had been closed up for some time.There was duct tape at the entrance holding down an extension cord. It was 80% loose so we removed it to avoid a trip hazard. Only 1 dish towel was provided in the kitchen.

Beautiful quaint cottage nestled in a gorgeous beachfront community!

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful quaint cottage! This was our 2nd visit staying in the Caribe and absolutely love this beachfront neighborhood! It’s very quiet & relaxing. This cottage was the perfect size for my husband, our 12 yr old son & myself. It was very cute, clean & had everything we needed for our stay. It’s a short walk to the beach & pools and the private beach is stunning! Steve & Kelly were awesome and very helpful during our stay! We will definitely stay here again when we return to Destin.

Absolutely amazing!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at The Cottage de Caribe! It was everything we had hoped for and so much more. It was the most enjoyable trip we've had to the Destin/Mirimar Beach area in several years. We were able to relax with the peace and quite we were looking for. The cottage is well maintained and very clean with great amenities. The neighborhood was very pleasant and beautiful. The private beach can't be beat. We couldn't get over how the sand would squeak as we walked in it! It's that clean. We loved it all and hope to be back. It was such a joy to vacation at The Cottage de Caribe. It was all amazing! Thank you Steve and Kelly!
