About this property

The Perfect Blend of Comfort & Adventure! Gorgeous Sunrises & Sunsets!

THE PELICAN:
Welcome to The Pelican, where laid-back coastal elegance meets unbeatable location! Perfectly poised on the tranquil shores of Little Lagoon, just a few sandy steps from the sparkling Gulf of America, this stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath multi-level home is a true Gulf Shores treasure. Whether you’re seeking a family getaway, friends reunion, or a dream vacation, The Pelican is ready to surpass your expectations!
The Pelican sits directly on Little Lagoon and is just across the street from the beach—yet thanks to a convenient pass bridge, you’ll enjoy safe, easy beach access without crossing traffic! Spend your mornings on sugar-white sands and your evenings fishing or kayaking from the neighborhood’s private pier.
Entertain effortlessly in the large, sunlit Living Room, featuring a plush sectional, reclining sleeper sofa, and recliner—perfect for movie nights or mid-day siestas. The open-concept Kitchen dazzles with ample cabinetry, stainless appliances, complete cookware, and a center island with bar seating.
Dine indoors or al fresco: the expansive wrap-around balcony invites you to sip morning coffee overlooking the lagoon or dine under the stars with Gulf breezes all around. Downstairs, the ground-level grilling area, picnic spot, and outdoor shower take your waterfront living to the next level.
Located on the main level, the primary suite features a King bed, TV, private balcony access, and a desk for remote work or planning beach adventures. Indulge in the spa-like ensuite with dual sinks, Jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, and a spacious closet.
Three additional bedrooms await upstairs! Guest Bedroom 1 boasts a cozy Queen bed, while the Kids’ Nook (Bedroom 2) is the perfect bunk room with 2 Twin-over-Twin bunks. These rooms share a full bath with tub/shower combo. Guest Bedroom 3 is a haven for visitors, with 2 Queen beds, TV, and a private bath of its own.
Bring your boat—there’s plenty of parking, a community boat ramp, and two piers on Little Lagoon for waterfront fun or sunset strolling. After a day on the water, rinse off in the outdoor shower before dinner or a glass of wine on the balcony.
Furry friends are welcome at The Pelican (with leash law compliance and cleanup, please). Enjoy high-speed wireless internet, a security system for peace of mind, and in-home laundry for added convenience.

Overall Good Stay

The house is super cute and close to the ocean side, with just a short walk. The interior needs some TLC, such as a paint refresh and there is tile in the kitchen that needs to be fixed.The railings on the stairs to the upstairs bedrooms and railing on the top floor are very unstable, which made me nervous with a small child in the house. The kitchen could also use more essential items/utensils, we found that there were things we needed that were not there. Overall the stay was great and we enjoyed our time for spring break as a family, it just needs some things to make it better.

Our family had the best summer because of renting this house. The house was very clean upon arrival, and check in was super easy. The view of the lagoon was beautiful with a very short walk to the beach. We hope to make this an annual vacation for the future!

Great location!

We love to fish and spend time on the beach. This location provided easy access to both. This house was perfect for me, my husband, 3 grown sons and 2 friends. Kitchen was fully stocked and we had plenty of indoor and outdoor sitting.

Beautiful View

The house was beautiful and the walk to the beach was short. The beds were not the most comfortable and there was a noticeable lack of mixing/serving bowls in the house. Fortunately we brought bowls and dish towels. We spent a lot of time on the deck, which was great. We were surprised how much trash was on the beach!

This property is in the perfect location. Outside area is super nice. Lots of outdoor seating. Indoors needs some work and TLC. Not very clean. Beds are not very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and made it work but definitely expected a little better condition of inside.

Excellent Getaway

One of the absolute BEST Houses to be in at Gulf Shores. Other than the neighbor showing up on our last day with 30 screaming kids and ruining the day, it was an amazing week. The House is going to be our pick for next year for sure.

This was our 4th year staying at the Pelican, we love this house. The location is great being on the lagoon and close to the beach, you just have to walk under the bridge and you are on the beach. My son loves to fish in the lagoon. The house is spacious and has plenty of room for everyone. The deck is wonderful and we enjoy hanging out on it in the evening.

Second Time a Charm

Enjoyed our second stay at this location. Saw beginnings of TLC needed for home (TLC needed does not affect the comfort and stay—just the looks). The location cannot be beat. We experienced a week of severe thunderstorms and still were able to enjoy the stay. Watching changes in clouds and waterways was entertaining and because of all the protected outside sitting areas, guests were still able to enjoy the outdoors even during the storms. Cannot beat the location for all ages in a large family.

This house is the perfect location!! Your management company was so good and helpful!! We had 8 adults and one infant-enough space so that everyone could spread out and enjoy!! Some of the most comfortable beds I have ever had at the beach!! Thank you for sharing, we did not use the Clemson ice chest cause we are Bama fans!😜

Location, Location, Location

This house has everything to make a fun vacation for the young of age to the young of heart. The young of age have a short walk to the Gulf with a wade pool created by a sand bar at the mouth of the pass. The young of heart can sit on the porch and watch all of the activity on the lagoon, pass and at the public beach across the pass. Add to that a short walk to a pier that allows beautiful family pictures at sunset. The house has more than adequate parking, a porch that accommodates the whole house party as well as two other gathering areas when guests need a little “me” time. We were very please with this accommodation and will return.

Beautiful but needs work

Location is excellent and house is beautiful but needs a lot of work - not very clean when we arrived, no beach chairs or beach accessories fireplace and one burner on stove did not work, kitchen utensils, pots, pans, etc are very poorly organized, paint is peeling and needs a lot of repairs - too bad - owners need to visit and get it back up to par

the Pelican

Having a location close to the Gulf and beside the lagoon made this house a great water viewing house for our sibling time. There was a definite problem with the wifi when we tried to get online; however, through texts with the management group, it seemed to improve. Still spotty but acceptable. The contract was correct about amenities.... there is NO MORE than stated. If you plan to cook, do not expect to have anything as far as seasonings/condiments in the house. We expected to find some games but were glad that we had brought a few with us since there are NONE! Staying there in the winter might be a unique time of renting, maybe summer time is all about the beach, not games! We would have appreciated a book to give a little more information about the house. Again, we only had our contract. The house did give us a meeting place and a good week.

Great house and location!

Great house, great location, thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was easy about the whole stay, the booking process, the check-in process, access to the beach and location was perfect. And if you like to fish you can do so right out the back door. Actually saw a manatee swim by in the pass. We will be back.
