Overall, pleasant condo

The condo itself was cute and a good distance to the beach and other destinations. There were a lot of crumbs on the tables, counters and floors when we arrived so I cleaned it with supplies I had. When I contacted management they offered to send someone to clean it the next morning, however, I had already cleaned. Overall we had a lovely time and enjoyed our trip.

Good, but disappointing

Check in was over an hour late. The cleaning lady said the condo was leftvis awfyl condition and vomit in the kitchen trash can. Gross!!! Then the upstairs neighbors dog pees on the deck above which came flooding down to the sitting area of the rental condo. Appalling. Otherwise, location and rest of condo was nice...even though the toilet in the jack and jill bathroom hadnt been cleaned either. Was a bit disappointed in overall sanitation.

Nice Place, Needs Improvement

The TV in the bedroom didn't work. We notified them on the first full day that it wasn't working and it took them to the last full day to even come look, at which a part needed to be ordered, and wouldn't get there in time. The upstairs neighbor pees on the deck and it trickles down. There were stains that looked like poop on chairs and curtains. The top bunk bed was not made, sheets just left on top of it. A pool, hot tub and pool table was advertised in the listing but we were never given a key card to enter, so we couldn't utilize these amenities. There were hairs sealed in the bags with towels. And no clear instruction on wear to leave trash.

Pelican's Perch Review 6.2024

I loved this location and the town of Manteo. Watching the boats coming in out was amazing, and the peacefulness of the property is more than you would expect. Except for the fact that you can hear footsteps above you, it's to be expected for a condo. I must say, the carpet needs to go! It stinks and it's nasty. I took a shower, walked around barefoot, and then noticed that my feet were very dirty! It also stinks like Dog pee. I had to buy some candle warmers during my stay. This condo has a lot of potential and could end up being a top place to stay but it just needs a big clean up. We found trash under the couch and in the cushions. Also there was trash under the dressers. We did not sleep in the bunk beds but they need to be updated and they look unsafe. The wood is cracked on the top bunk and it seems to be held together by glue. The hot water in the kitchen was not working but we improvised without complaining. The showers were great but still needs an update!! Update the Pelican and you will be amazed how much this property would benefit. Thank you :)

Great Location in Manteo

As advertised and a little more. Great location within walking distance on Manteo waterfront (less than a half mile). Property is in great condition: comfortable for six. Spacious and well-equipped. Terrific view of moored watercraft just outside. Strippers Bar & Restaurant located on-site overlooking the bay has great local fare with nightly specials. Our first time in Manteo. This property made it extra special!

Unit locked when we arrived and no rep their to let us in. Made several calls, no answers

Property management horrible. None of my phone calls and emails re: check in before and after 4pm checkin were answered. Very very stressful situation. Once they took my money, no communication with them was possible. No apologies received. I will be surprised if this evaluation is published. I hope the owner learns of the management problems! Yes, I am really, really angry. Never had such an experience, and I travel a lot!

Nice but noisy

It was a great place, but the upstairs neighbors are extremely loud. At one time our 3 year old gradson got scared from all the noise. It is especially loud at night.
