Beautiful Views, very busy town, slow elevators
The overall condo was beautiful and the view was amazing! The Pelican Resort itself was very busy. The elevators are very slow. The building is huge but only has a couple working elevators, lots of time spent waiting or taking the stairs. The beach on the resort was narrow compared to other places I’ve stayed and there were many rules (personal chairs can only be in certain areas is one example that was a little odd). Destin itself was incredibly busy. Not a walkable town-few safe sidewalks and crosswalks limited. Probably wouldn’t go back but the water was beautiful!

Spring Break with my kiddos
My 3 kids and I stayed at this condo for spring break. There was definitely room for 2 more people to stay with us. The property is so convenient. Plenty of stores and food places ever close by. Not to mention the incredible views from the room. The beach is literally right there. No long walks or crossing streets. You can access it directly from the property. My kids loved using the pools too because the ocean was still a little cold for March. I really loved that I could rent an umbrella right on the beach and they handled the setup for me. Wonderful experience and would highly recommend!!

Amazing Destin
We had a perfect stay in Destin. The condo was even better than the pictures. Everything was spotlessly clean and well stocked. The view was phenomenal and watching the dolphins play and the walks on the beach were a perfect way to start the day. The amazing sunsets were a perfect to end it.

Beach view
We enjoyed the condo. It had everything we needed. We spent a lot of time on the patio, great view.
My only concern was the fact the chair rental company occupied the entire first rows of the beach at $50 a day for two chairs and an umbrella. We bought our own chaise loungers and used condos umbrella. We left chairs there for future guests.
Enjoy, beautiful place.

Perfect Beach Getaway
This was exactly what our sweet family needed! We watched the waves all day long, played in the gorgeous sand! Cooked dinner in but also went out to a few restaurants that were not a far walk at all. Everything was clean and kitchen was decently stocked to cook. Everyone at this property was so kind! We ran into a small issue and the host responded right away with help and a solution! We will definitely be back!
Love this property very clean and amazing beach front condo !! You will never get bored there !! Excellent host!!!

Great place to stay but the bed was very hard
We had a great time. It was a beautiful room and was very clean with a great view of the beach. The only, and i mean only draw back was the bed was extremely uncomfortable and hard. It was hard to sleep through the night on it. I spoke to the property manager after our stay about it and they seemed to think it was possible they forgot to replace that bed when updating and was going to look into it. Hopefully they replaced it with something better. I would definitely stay here again if they replaced it because we had a wonderful time otherwise.

Quiet and quaint
The overall facility is a bit dated but this specific unit was updated and clean. Perfect unit for a couple to get away and enjoy the beach. The balcony provides the perfect spot for privacy and listen to the waves crash on the shoreline. We enjoyed our stay and will likely come back.

Condo was gorgeous
Condo was amazing! Exactly as described. The only negative was the beach space was a bit overcrowded. We had trouble locating an area to put our umbrella, etc. You are somewhat forced to rent umbrella & chairs if you want to be anywhere near the water. Not sure if it’s like this all the time or just bc it is the busy season.

Fabulous family spring break!
This condo at the Pelican Beach Resort was the perfect location for our family of 4. We were looking for a place with all of the home away from home amenities to make a week away from home with 2 teen boys as easy as possible and we found it here! It was extremely clean, updated, and the view of the Gulf of Mexico is truly breath taking. The crisp white beach is merely steps away and is the sand isn’t your thing the 2 pools are also a fantastic option. The on site security is very friendly yet serious about making sure everyone is safe. We will be back!!

Perfect for our needs
The whole experience, from initial review, booking, stay and departure was easy. The owner was very helpful, provided all information needed and checked in to ensure things were as they should be.
Condo was well maintained and clean and although there were a couple very minor maintenance issues, they are an easy fix and didn't cause problems.
Definately recommended!
