The property was fine until we had issues with the bathroom tub..the knobs came off and we had to have them turn water off and they couldn’t fix it right away so we had to be transferred to another unit which was a BIG inconvenience because we had to move all our things and groceries to a whole different unit and on top of that it was my birthday so it really put a damper on my supposed great day 😫😤

Fabulous Get-away

We are repeat guests at Pelican Beach Resort but first stay at the Terrace. The u it is well decorated, comfortable and inviting.We enjoyed the pool being less crowded and the elevators were easily accessible. The beach is only a short walk. LDV beach service is fantastic. Be sure to reserve chairs and umbrellas well ahead of your stay. We would recommend the unit for groups of 4. There is a sleeper sofa that was uncomfortable but we made due. Realjoy is professional, communative and makes sure you stay is everything you want it to be. We will definitely be back.

Amazing & Beautiful Location

Overall, this was a wonderful experience! First and foremost the check in process was very easy and straightforward. The condo was beautiful, very clean; and very well decorated! My only complaint is that I wish the bathrooms were renovated as it’s seems the kitchen and living area were. However, it didn’t much effect the stay of my trip! The location of the condo is in a very safe and beautiful area guarded by security & fully gated around with only one entrance with security in the front! Walking to the beach for the first time was a little confusing, if you plan on walking to the beach from the condo you have to go through the property only, the bridge that goes across the pond is misleading as it brings you to the houses which are completely separate from the Pelican resort. All in All, I recommend this condo to everyone and give it a 5/5 for my stay!

Overall great stay

Overall, we were extremely pleased with this room and location in Destin, FL. It is in the heart of the town with several restaurants and attractions around. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. We were pleased with the pools, rental chairs for the beach, and the tiki restaurant on the beach at the main building. The only reason I am not giving this stay 5 stars is due to the listing stating that there is a complimentary tram service to the main beachfront building. This is inaccurate and one of the main reasons that we booked this room as my sister has recently torn ligaments in her knee and we did not want her to have to walk too far to get to the beach. We spoke with the employees at the main building desk and they advised that they haven't had the tram service for quite some time. The walk from the terrace building to the beach/main building wasn't too far, but obviously was a pain for someone with recent knee issues. If the tram service had not been advertised on this listing, then obviously it wouldn't have been an issue. Overall we were very pleased! The property and our room were in excellent condition and we hope to stay again soon! Would absolutely be a 5 star review if not for the inaccurate tram listing.

No complaints. Great experience

This was a girls trip for myself, my mother, my daughter and her friend. We had a great time and didn’t have any issues at the condo during our stay. It was spacious and just as the pictures showed. The view was nice for a condo that isn’t directly on the water/beachfront. Aside from some visible moisture issues in the bathrooms, the condo was nice and well kept. There was an extra fridge in the dining room that I thought was out of place and unnecessary for the size of the condo but it wasn’t a problem. The condo was a short walk from the beach access and most days we could pack our car up and drive to the parking lot that was closer to the access. The tiki bar was convenient, not very expensive and the food was pretty good too. Having access to 3 pools was fun for the girls. The one at our condo was never very crowded. Beach access was easy; however, the beachfront space allocated for the resort is not sufficient for the number of guests the resort accommodates. When renting beach chairs we were told it was first come first serve so we showed up at 9am to claim front row. It turns out first come first serve actually meant first to reserve (I am assuming) because the chairs had names on them. They line 4 rows of chairs and it is very crowded. Meanwhile the beaches on both sides are much less crowded and just have chairs in one row. This is not a complaint just something I think folks should know. Overall our stay was pleasant and we enjoyed the property. The staff we encountered on grounds were friendly and we did not encounter any issues during our stay.

Beach wedding weekend

We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was nice, clean and spacious. I also had my wedding ceremony on the beach which was a few minutes from our condo. The location is perfect and close to everything, which saved us from spending alot of money on gas. My only complaint is that I thought we would have a better view of the beach .

Great location & view, modern furnishings, comfortable

The Terrace has everything you need for a large party. Our 2 bedroom was comfortable for a party of 6, with 1 or 2 kids sleeping on the couch bed. If you don't mind the short walk to the beach (as it is not directly on the beach), having access to the Pelican Resort, that DOES sit on the beach is really nice (Tiki Bar and extra pools).

Enjoyed our stay!

Overall everything was pretty good. A few complaints: water pressure in spare bathroom shower was not great, and the couple staying in there did not like that it was two twin beds pushed together. Felt that was false advertising for a king bed. The property was clean, easily accessible and perfect for what we needed and wanted. The beach was a bit further than expected and not super visible from the balcony. And the phone number provided was not to the resort so they were not familiar with the check in process. The listing is also not clear that this is a condo at a resort until after booking and you receive information regarding your stay.
