Waterfront Pelican Beach Resort - Incredible Ocean Views - Terrace #803

CORRECTION on the VRBO generated caption: You do NOT need to drive to the beach! See the reviews.

It is a short 3-5 minute walk to the beach, all inside the resort on the boardwalk. You will not need to cross any busy streets.

Light and bright spacious 2/2 condo located at the Terrace at the Pelican Beach Resort. Stunning 8th floor gulf and lagoon views from the interior and exterior of the unit.

The shared amenities of the Pelican Beach Resort and the Terrace are available including four pools, two hot tubs, tiki bar, cafe' & shop, tennis courts, two gyms, beach service, free Wi-Fi and more.

This unit has a rare, covered parking spot right by the elevator!

We take pride in the cleanliness of our condo.

The views are awesome 24/7 - with good or bad weather.

No third-party management company to deal with! You are in direct contact with the owners Mark and Melinda on their personal line available 24/7.

Please note you must be 25 years of age or older to book and your party can't exceed six people. An infant is considered a guest. This is a resort rule.

***This is a pet free resort. It's my understanding that emotional support animals are not required to be allowed by ADA laws. If so, you will need to search for other resorts if you must bring one.

The resort is a smoke free facility. Please, absolutely no smoking or vaping in the condo or on the balconies is allowed. Please be courteous.

Guest Access
The first time you arrive, the security guard will direct you to the front desk to get the required wristbands and a parking pass that covers the length of your stay.

Then, and for the rest of your stay, just show your credentials to the guard at the entry gate and go directly to your own private and free parking spot in the Terrace garage. You can access the nearby elevator to the 8th floor. No steps. Note that you will also have additional free parking in the outside lot. I've never seen the parking lot full.

Luggage carts are located on the first floor. We will send you a code for the front door entry to the condo.

The beach is a three-to-five-minute boardwalk with no crossing of streets. We provide a beach cart for your convenience. Beach service rentals with chairs and an umbrella are available during the season and for a fee. We recommend reserving them early in your stay to get the best location. Note there may be paddleboards and or kayak available as well.

A spacious multi-grill outside grilling area is down on the 1st floor next to the pool.

The very popular Big Kahuna's Water Park is across the street! If the no swimming red flags go up, the park is right there and ready and fun.

We appreciated all the beach amenities and kid-friendly amenities available. We all immediately felt right at home. The washer/dryer was a wonderful addition to our trip.

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!

We loved the condo. Everything was perfect. The views from the balcony were gorgeous! Loved the parking spot close to the elevator! The pool was so nice and quick to get to! The walk to the beach was short and the walkway was nice! The only downfall was we didn’t know we could not put up a tent on the beach for our grand baby! The beach attendant was apologetic about it and gave us an umbrella for the day! Would definitely rent this condo again!

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

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!
