Absolutely Lovely - It Was Hard To Leave
The property was perfect. It is right on the beach. You can hear the ocean from the balcony that is how close it is. Beach service made life easier and I really enjoyed just the quiet serenity you could find in the condo. It was never overly loud or noisy but soul soothing. Highly recommend. They have made this place perfect. It is homey and beautiful!

Perfect!
Choose this property! It met our #1 requirement of cleanliness, was well kept, kitchen was amply stocked with all dinnerware and cookware, sufficient linens, etc.
We had stayed at The Pelican many years ago (not this particular unit but the resort in general) and it had become run down. Decided to give it another try this year and we are so glad we did! It is very obvious that owners and managers have put forth a ton of effort to make this a destination worthy of 100% occupancy.
The owners of this unit are super responsive and genuinely care about their property and tenants. We would not hesitate to rent this unit again.

This place has issues. Spent 2 days with the condo security guards patrolling everyone at the pools making sure their drinks which were purchased at the onsite tiki bar were not within 4ft of the pool deck. It felt awkward and uncomfortable.

Nice Get away
This was a wonderful property! My main two factors for living a place is cleanliness and view- this property hit it out of the park on both. It was very clean and nicely decorated. We also loved the large TV’s in the living room and bedroom. The view was wonderful! We enjoyed watching the dolphins each day. The weather was cold and rainy, but the private balcony was a perfect place to sit to view the ocean. The walk to the beach is less than two minutes- it’s really close! While the kitchen was well stocked, we prefer to eat out at all the meals. The best restaurants are only a few minutes from the condo. This was a wonderful place to stay and would certainly stay there again!!!

Perfect for 2
Condo was nice and host was easy to work with during booking or any questions we had .
Elevator was quick during our stay and parking was available if you ate early and beat the crowds leaving in the evening. Cafe onsite had a good breakfast that we took advantage of each morning and the tiki bar was convenient if you like resort style drinks .
Beach View was nice with usually a dolphin show late In evening or early morning when they were chasing fish off the sand bar .
Only thing we wish the condo had had was a bedroom on the front facing the ocean with a balcony and a more comfortable couch and living chair but we understand furniture has to hold up for a lot of people passing thru each week lol.
Give it a try if your ever in Destin !

Oceanfront stay
It was a great place to stay! We loved every amenity and the proximity to the beach. Only suggestion would be to bring some type of fan if your little ones plan to sleep on the bunk beds during the hot summer months. Even saying that, it doesn’t take away from opening the door and sitting on the patio watching the waves come in or having access to multiple pools. There is also a cafe downstairs that made the trip with kids much easier! Beach service as well as umbrella service was wonderful!
