We stayed at this condo during my kiddo’s baseball tournament. It was a perfect location in relation to the fields and had everything we needed when we were not at the ball field. Will definitely look to stay here again next year!

Heaven on the Destin beaches

My husband and I stayed at this property for a little week getaway and absolutely fell in love with it! Perfect location in town, perfect view of the beach, loved all of the amenities at this resort! Best breakfast and lunch at the onsite café and the best service at the tiki hut and on the beach! We are planning a trip back to this condo with our entire family next Summer! Thank you Ashley for being such an amazing host and so easy to work with!

Excellent vacation

The condo was as advertised though there is a new oceanfront pool that was not represented in the VRBO pictures. It is the best pool on location. There are three pools and the side pool allows for shade in case the little ones get too much sun. :-) The condo being on the fourth floor was a huge plus in elevator times. The garbage chute and laundry are very close to the condo which was wonderful. The front desk staff was very friendly and the parking was easily accessible. One of the teens with us used the gym everyday and was happy to see the individual weights to do his entire routine. The location of Pelican Beach Resort makes it easy to get to restaurants, grocery stores and shopping. Overall a wonderful stay and would definitely stay again.

Great experience always is now one thing I would like to bring to the attention of the building is when on the balconies you can not hear the fire alarm my child had to come tell us there was a fire alarm going off to evacuate everyone was out safe but maybe put alarms on the other side of the building

The Condo itself was clean. We had issues with the TV. Cable did not work. Owner was helpful and easy to reach, but COX rep could not come until the 5 day of our stay, therefore we had no tv most of the trip. Pelican Resort is extremely large. Beach service is available, but be prepared to be on the 4 or 5 row, where you are unable to even see the ocean or feel a breeze. You can bring your own chairs, but you have to set up behind all of the beach service chairs/umbrellas. Elevators were a disaster. Wait time was unreal. Condo was nice, but location and resort- were overcrowded for us!

Let me say I never leave reviews and I wasn’t going to leave this one but I’m tired of being disappointed. Beach was nice, but really crowded and condo guest may only stay within the marked areas which is a small space. Condo needs some updates, air conditioning makes a terrible loud noise the whole time, musty smells throughout condo. Cable stopped working. Hair on towels that weren’t ours. Mold on ceilings near vents. Toilet didn’t flush almost every time. Health department shut down the pool as it didn’t meet standards, it was cloudy and not cared for. The elevators didn’t work for the first three days we were there. Wristbands are equivalent to hospital bands. Extremely loud condo building, can hear everything above, below, next to and outside your doors at all times. Woke up to trucks and workers cleaning the garbage shoot at 7am. Just overall not a great experience or vacation, unfortunately we will not be returning. Maybe we have high standards but at any rate when you pay over 3000 for a place I feel like it should be better.

This condo was perfect! We will definitely stay here, again. It was super clean. The beds were very comfortable. It had a beautiful view of the ocean. We are a family of 3, but it would comfortably fit 4-6 people. This is our third stay at this property. It’s great! It’s safe, the pools are great, love the tiki bar and beach service. This is our favorite vacation spot in Florida.

The unit was amazing! Great views, close to everything, clean, and the owner was absolutely awesome. I’ve stayed in many different condos on the beach throughout my life, but this was one was by far the best. I highly recommend booking this unit if you get a chance. You won’t be disappointed!

Perfect family getaway!!

From the moment we inquired about the property until the moment we left, the experience was seamless and couldn’t have gone better for us! It was clean, well-maintained, beautifully decorated, and everything that our family of 4 needed. Being on the fourth floor was perfect as we could use the stairs to easily get to the pool/beach and avoid the busy elevators when needed. The view was amazing and we were able to see dolphins in the morning as we ate breakfast on the balcony. The bunkbeds were as much of a highlight for the kids as the sand and ocean were . All beds were super comfy! Ashley makes sure to provide you with all of the information needed (in a very nicely done pdf brochure) to help you enjoy Destin to its fullest, and she answers any questions by text promptly. The property has 2 pools, and a tiki bar right by the pools and beach to grab drinks for the adults and snacks or fun virgin drinks for kids! The cafe is great to have for breakfast, lunch and buying any fun gear for the ocean (sand toys, towels, body boards, etc)! Pelican Beach was the perfect location to get anywhere we wanted within 5-10 minutes, while also having everything on site if you don’t want to go anywhere! Highly recommend!!

About the host

We are The Mattinglys - Nick, Ashley, Jack, Kate, & Ryan. We bought our unit in July of 2018 and have enjoyed sharing a piece of what we love and our 'home away from home' with others! This is our Happy Place!

Why they chose this property

Location is key! You can't beat the 4th floor views; high enough to see it all and close enough to hear the sounds of the waves rolling in. Our unit is uniquely decorated with paintings by our Mom/'Nana'... and you will likely notice similar paintings by the same artist throughout the resort :).
