Residence Inn Sandestin at Grand Boulevard

Residence Inn Sandestin at Grand Boulevard is an all-suite Marriott extended-stay hotel within the Grand Boulevard town center in Miramar Beach, a few steps from the district’s shops, restaurants and movie theater. Every suite has a fully equipped kitchen, and the hotel offers a complimentary grocery shopping service for guests who want the fridge stocked on arrival.

A hot breakfast is included daily. Outside there is a pool and whirlpool, and the hotel lends a pickleball net and paddles for use on site. The 24-hour fitness center, free self-parking and electric vehicle chargers round out the amenities. Up to two pets are allowed for a one-time fee. There is no airport shuttle, but the hotel works with a local taxi company that takes reservations.

Grand Boulevard’s restaurants and boutiques are within walking distance, the Village of Baytowne Wharf and the Sandestin golf courses are a short drive south, and the Gulf beaches of Miramar Beach and Scenic 30A are just minutes away by car. Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport is about 26 miles away.

It suits families on week-long beach trips, wedding parties, and business travelers or relocating residents who want a kitchen and a walkable neighborhood. Its neighbor the Courtyard shares the same block, so guests can walk over for dinner or coffee at The Bistro. Studios and one-bedroom suites both have separate seating areas, and the kitchens include full-size refrigerators and dishwashers, handy for families who want to keep beach snacks and simple dinners on hand.
