Perfect for beach getaway
I brought my daughter and her best friend to spend a few days for their spring break. The weather wasn’t perfect but the home and location were. The home had everything we needed and more. The view was amazing.

Wonderful property. Excellent location for families (up to 6). Very clean and well-appointed in every respect. Under-building, reserved parking. Timely and detailed communication with owners. This property checks all the boxes. Will return without hesitation.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful condo
This is one of the nicest condos we have stayed in, it was a short stroll through the complex to the beautiful beach - perfect for long walks. We found the owners excellent to work with, the check-in process was seamless, the condo was in immaculate condition, wonderful balcony views, and personal items that often get forgotten when packing were provided as well as snacks, condiments, and various kitchen items. The owners really have gone above and beyond to make this condo a "home away from home". We would not hesitate to stay here again. June

Family condo in Destin, Florida
Great host and property! Family oriented with some games, toys, and beach toys. We loved the pool and hot tub in the evenings, close beach access for swimming in the day and crab-hunting at night. The property is within 5-10 minutes of a variety of delicious foods and fun activities for kids. I had technical issues communicating with the host through VRBO and he worked around that with me, which was great!

Pelican Beach Condo
We had a great stay! The condo was exactly as described. It’s in a great location and has a beautiful view. The wagon, chairs, umbrella, and beach towels provided were amazing to have to take to the beach. It was probably about a 5 minute walk to the beach. You don’t have to use the walkway over the water to get to the beach which is what I originally thought from the pictures…there is a path with signs by the parking lot. There is also a crosswalk near the condo so we were able to walk to the Waterpark across the street. There are also shops and a few restaurants in walking distance. We were able to view the fireworks from our balcony which was fun. Parking space at the condo is right by the elevator which is nice. The condo was very clean and the kitchen was stocked with some snacks, condiments, and a few cleaning supplies. We also appreciated the basket of extras like toothbrush, toothpaste, travel sunscreen, etc. Our family had an amazing trip and Mark and Melinda were great hosts! Definitely recommend this condo!
