The condo is a great location - a block to the beach and walking distance of restaurants, ice cream and candy shop, a cool sports bar, shops, etc. The condo is wonderfully furnished and probably the best stocked kitchen I’ve experienced in our many rentals. There were ceiling fans in all bedrooms and the living space, great TVs in all rooms, seating for 8 and so forth.

Great Location, Loved it.

Destin has the most beautiful beach I have ever seen. The Terrace is close to everything, the harbor, restaurants, shopping, fresh fish markets, Big Kahunas, the perfect family place and get away for adults. Great pool, new grills, work out room, onsite deli, beach side tiki bar, and beach service during season. The condo itself was wonderful, clean, well equipped with a large balcony to view the fantastic sunsets. We will be back!

Fabulous!!!!!

After renting this property last year, my husband and I simply HAD to request the same location for our vacation in May. The condo is very spacious, comfortable, and inviting, and the view is absolutely AMAZING!!!! Everything you could possibly need is so close by--grocery stores, restaurants, family entertainment, and shopping. The beach is wonderful, as is the pool area. Everything is very well-maintained. We will DEFINITELY stay here again...and again!!!!!!!

My family and kids enjoyed our stay at the condo! At first a little disappointed that we were not right on the ocean, but in the building by the street. Once we got used to the walk to the beach our building was great! The pool and elevators were less crowded and the parking much easier than the big building on the beach. Our condo was perfect for our kids and their friends and we really enjoyed our stay. We will be back to Destin!!

Enjoyed our stay!

T704 was clean, decorated well, and very comfortable for our family of 6 adults. Very short stroll down the path to the beautiful beach. The clear water and soft sand were wonderful. While I hated the cost and having to pre-reserve our beach chairs, I am glad we did it to be near the water and have the convenience of having them ready for us everyday. The Tiki bar was an added bonus for tropical drinks. The only small negative for me personally is I wish there were more walkable waterfront restaurants. I hate traffic and driving around here is very busy. Overall a wonderful trip.

Great location

Everything was easy to find. Upon arrival check in was super easy and quick. You are just a few minute drive from everything so location is great for that! 5 minute walk to the beach was no big deal we had 2 under 2 and a 3 year old we brought a sand wagon and it was perfect for them. We also rented beach chairs and umbrellas in advance which was super easy. Anytime the kids were to tired to go out to eat they have a great place to eat right off the beach. Everything was clean and the view from the balcony was great as well! Definitely will be going back.

Pelican Resort Condo stay

Good location as far as restaurant -- but too far from beach when you have toddlers with you. Surprised that the condo was so dated (especially bathrooms, kitchen appliances [front burner on stove did not work] and living room furnishings). Was surprised at the tiny TV's in two of the bedrooms, they were more like computer monitors. Batteries in remotes needed replacing, floor of old tub in one bathroom was badly stained and needed replaced. (I scrubbed and scrubbed when we first arrived trying to get it out) If you stay here, BYOP (bring your own pillows)! The ones supplied were flat (likely from Dollar General). People were not abiding by pool closure time -- very loud until 1-2 in the morning - lots of remodeling and construction going on. And what's with the having to wear resort arm bands 24/7?!!! While owners seem very nice, the price paid for this rental was too high for what we got.
Stayed 7 nights in May 2021
Response from VrboOwner on Jul 7, 2021
Annie, I agree with you that the TVs in the bedrooms could be bigger, we didn't realize the importance of TV size, at the beach, but we intend to upgrade sizes in August after season. We are sorry you felt the condo is dated, in the last year we replaced the Living room rug, cocktail table, dining table, chairs, the refrigerator and washer dryer stack. We have more upgrades planned for fall when we are open. The pillows are supplied by the Pelican Beach management as well as the sheets and towels. I am a pillow snob, I bring my own down pillow every where I go. Some people prefer a flatter pillow, I have asked around. Last but not least, with the onset of covid the condo management removed all the designer quilts, shams, pillows and rugs to help keep our condo as clean and healthy as possible for your safety. Safety or Charm? Had to make a choice, hopefully not for much longer. If you stay here in the future and your missing batteries, remotes or a burner doesn't work properly please call the front desk, they will schedule a repair. Thanks for staying with us!

We are sorry for any inconvenience, but the entire building exterior is being painted. I wish the painters would have put up better signage indicating wet paint. They were also told not to start until 8:00. I’m glad to hear everything else was great. Thank you for your feedback.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Crawford

Host profile image
Mike and I are from Cincinnati Ohio. We first brought our 3 sons here in 1999. Loved it so much we bought T704 in 2003. It is a magical place filled with years of memories. Its already our 9-year-old grandsons favorite place to visit. We have traveled all over the U.S., and we have seen many beaches, but Destin has the most beautiful sand, water and sunsets making it near and dear to our hearts. We are very fortunate to have a direct flight into VPS airport 25 minutes away. But it is also an eleven-hour drive.

Why they chose this property

Once you visit with us, you will know why. Wonderful! After 20 years we have not found a better resort or location. Everything about the Pelican Beach Resort is just what we wanted in a beach getaway. When we purchased the condo, we had 3 teenaged sons and there is a water park, go-carts, putt-putt, ice cream shop, beach store and breakfast restaurant within walking distance. Shopping, restaurants and entertainment options are conveniently located to the Pelican.

What makes this property unique

Location can't be beat. Steps from the most beautiful beach in the U.S. Having morning coffee on the balcony with an ocean view.
The sunsets from the balcony are the most spectacular I've ever seen, especially in the Fall. The amenities of the resort, 4 pools, 3 spa tubs, 2 work out rooms, tennis courts, a Deli/market on the property, Tiki Hut for beach beverages, beach service. Awesome.
