We had a wonderful stay. The condo was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the beach supplies provided by the hosts were a thoughtful and helpful touch.A couple of things to note that are outside of the hosts’ control: the café food could have been better for the price, and the arcade photos appear to be outdated since there were only a few games available. Families with small kids should also book premium beach chairs early, as the standard seating isn’t ideal for watching kids play in the water.Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this condo

Fantastic location, beds very comfortable, full size washing machine and dryer were wonderful! Only downside of the resort was they have you wear a snap wrist band that has to be cut off. You have to wear it anytime you are on the resort and if you lose it it’s 25 to replace. Other than that it’s wonderful resort with a ton of amenities!!!

Beautiful condo! Never even had to contact the hosts because everything was taken care of and literally had no issues. Check in was a breeze, the bunk bed room was perfect for my three young daughters to share, primary bedroom was gorgeous, and we knew exactly what to bring with us because of the in detail listing description. (Extra toilet paper, laundry soap, paper towel, etc) The only thing we had to run out for extra trash bags. Thanks for having us!

Great Central location in Destin

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Pelican Beach resort in Destin. The condo was clean and inviting with bright sunshine until noon every day. Central location made it any easy walk to shopping and restaurants. The facility was partially closed during our stay in Feb. with the gym and tiki hut closed and the cafe opened for 3 days/week.

Great family vacation

Beautiful condo and location in Destin. Beautiful beaches and plenty of amenities. Only issue we had was checking in took a long time and it's a struggle to find luggage carts. Not a reflection on the condo owners at all, just the resort itself. We had a great stay! The condo was as pictured and the owners were quick to respond with any questions or issues we had. The beds were comfy, the patio is super cute, the view is fantastic and the condo is right by the elevator, which was awesome! Would stay again.
