We had a great time at The Blue Pelican! This vacation home was perfect for us. The home was clean, convenient & within walking distance close to the beach & restaurants. We enjoyed our stay & will book again next year!
All was great! Will definitely be back! Hopefully the microwave and ice and water on fridge will work then.

The house was lovely and in a great location by the beach and the Aquarium which my grandson love. Exactly as shown in photos. I did not like being required to download an app from a company I do not know to check in.

Wonderful Beach House
We loved everything about this house. It was clean, spacious, and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable home away from home. We especially loved how close it was to the beach and that it was a short drive into town. We hope to revisit again!
I loved everything about this property, the location was perfect. We struggled with the lock key pad a few times but it was fine it eventually worked. The property was clean and had everything inside to maintain the cleanliness. I t was perfect for a family of 5. I would definitely consider stying here again.

Enjoyable
Decently located to get around various places within corpus and island. Lexington about 1 mile walk down the beach. Overall clean and amenities provided. Plenty of towels.
The house was as advertised. Perfect location for our activities. North Beach was beautiful. Will try to rent again. Wanda

Very nice, BUT!
Beautiful home. Nice location. But had problems with the microwave, refrigerator water and ice maker and washing machine due to water being shut off. Shower also needs some adjusting.
Once these things are fixed this will be a very nice place.

First time to the ocean.
My husband took me to see the ocean for the first time for my 50th birthday. The house was beautiful and very close to the water. We will definitely be back to visit again.

Amazing Location and Property
We thoroughly enjoyed this property. The access to the beach is perfect (just don't get off the path in the marshy land or you will be attacked by mosquitos.) The home itself was immaculate. Cleanliness was upmost. The amount of rooms and beds were perfect for our vacation. Thank you!

Overall great house
There were a few minor issues, but somewhat to be expected in a beach rental. Nothing worth having to call and complain to management while we were there! Location is great, just a short 2 min walk to the beach. The area is really quiet and not a lot of street traffic, which was nice! There was an over abundance of towels, which was FANTASTIC! Both beach and bath towels galore! Overall, we had a good weekend at the Blue Pelican!
Very nice property.Microwave didn't work. Water was turned off to the refrigerator and washing machine.Plumbing in the shower was not properly adjusted.Otherwise, this would have been really great.
Was disappointed that the keurig coffee maker did not work. Had to go out every morning to purchase coffee and could not have coffee in the evening.

VACASA is awful
No sheets on beds, 5 beds and two sets of clean linens that we had to hunt down in weird areas of the house, MOUNTAIN of mildewed and wet linens in the laundry room though…, no toilet paper, smelled like something died in the kitchen sink, reached out for assistance multiple times and didn’t hear back until the evening before we left.

Lovely home near the gulf :)
The home/location matched exactly what was posted on the website. The house was spacious and plenty of amenities for the family. The walk to the beach side is approximately 3-5 minutes. The area was not packed and was perfect for those quiet/private family memories. The house easily receives a five-star; however, the cleanliness downgraded this property to a four-star. Although check-in was at 4:00 PM, we could not check into the property until 6:30 PM because of the cleaning crew arriving late to clean the property.
I would stay here again even after the cleanliness mishap :)
