Floor was pretty grimy when we arrived but they sent housekeeping out first thing the following morning. Space and location can't be beat. Not the nicest unit in the building, needs a little TLC and a face lift but all cosmetic imo. Lastly, the in-room dryer is leaving black marks on clothes. I sent them a message regarding this so hopefully it's addressed

Pelican Isle 501 was very nice. The condo was clean and beds were comfortable. Being the corner unit, the balcony offered a great view in either direction. Loved being so close to the beach. Would definitely stay here again. Only problem was seaweed in the water. Had to go to Henderson State Park for clear water.

Nice Condo. Have stayed at Pelican Isle several times and have always enjoyed it. Loved the corner condo. We had several different views of the ocean! The only issue we had was the people that were staying above us smoked on their balcony even tho Pelican Isle is a smoke- free building. They have designated areas outside that they could smoke. There were times we couldn’t enjoy seating on our balcony because of the smoke smell.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 October 2024
Thank you for your review! This unit being on the corner is a huge plus and we are glad to hear you took advantage of those many gorgeous Gulf views! We are sorry to hear about the guests smoking - that is something we would report to the HOA of Pelican Isle had we been informed. We hope to host you again with your return guest discount!

Brooks and Shorey Resorts was great to work with! I recieved several texts and emails keeping me informed of everything. Rental was ready early. Condo was as pictured. The only con I had was the bedrooms need dark shades and a shade over the round sky light for sure. Also fluffier pillows. The beds were firm, for those of you who like a softer bed. Other than that, it was a great rental! We will definitely rent from Brooks and Shorey again! and would stay at Pelican Isle again!

We have stayed in this condo multiple times, and I absolutely love the location and views. However, I do think it is time to update this unit. The living room furniture is not very comfortable and the master bath had to be rigged with a wash cloth to get the shower head to stay up. The master bed actually has a piece of plywood under the mattress...Ouch! As I mentioned before, this is absolutely a fantastic unit for the location and views, but not so much for comfort. It just needs a little love...

Beds were not comfortable, and grandson complained about top hall bunk not comfortable. Had a major issue with ice maker all week. Dripped water and froze over onto floor. Had to have water cut off to maker. Having to purchase 1-2 bags of ice everyday was a bummer. Sofa worn. Loved the corner unit. Location was great as it was our 1st time on Okaloosa as we usually stay in Destin. Good restaurants nearby and having Publix nearby was nice. Brooks and Shorey office were great to deal with. Would book with Brooks & Shorey again maybe just not this condo.
