Lagoon Summer|Beach,Dock,Pool, Arcade, A+ Location

☀️ Sun-Soaked Summer by the Coast w/ Dock & Pool 🎣

🤗 Welcome to summer by the shore at The Sandy Pelican, a bright and cheerful Gulf Coast retreat made for long sunny days and easy coastal living.

Another great stay at The Sandy Pelican

This was our second stay at this property, and hopefully not the last. Everything is well maintained and clean and is exactly as advertised. Location is perfect, close to everything but still feels secluded and quiet in the evenings.

location was perfect

Our first family vacation to gulf shores was a wonderful success thanks to Nesting Vacations. They made planning and booking stress free. Made me feel comfortable asking questions as this was my first time ever vacationing. Their advertisement of the property was honest, location was perfect, and their pictures were accurate and up to date. It truly felt like we were at home.

Very nice stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay in this VRBO. It was close to the dock for fishing and just a short walk to the beach. The owners have a large inventory of beach stuff but what we really loved was the extra coffee pods, beach towels, shower products, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry and dishwasher detergent. Thank you for such a thoughtful gesture that we rarely experience anymore. ☺️
