Beautiful location, just steps to the Gulf of Mexico. We also enjoyed the beautiful pools. The house was amazing - so spacious and our family of 10 had so much room to spread out We will definitely be returning! We loved the fact that we were away from the hustle and bustle of any city .

Hi Timothy, thanks for the wonderful review of Pelican View!
Great location for beach access! Perfect for a family!
You couldn’t ask for a better location with the boardwalk being right next to the home, giving you access to the beach in just a short walk. We have stayed in this neighborhood before and enjoy how quiet it is. Our family enjoyed our time here.
Location was perfect! Just a short board walk to the beach with beach views. Communication with the property manager was great. The weather was beautiful!

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pelican View! The location was amazing. There was plenty of space for our group of 6 adults and 7 children. We were discussing renting this house again for our next trip! It was the perfect spot for us!!
The property was a perfect spot for the occasion.. Loved the ability to get to the water easily with the fam..We spent lots of time every chance we got.

Hi Misty, we're sorry to hear about your loss, but find comfort knowing she is resting at peace near the beach. Thanks for allowing us to be part of this memorial service.
The location could not have been better, close enough to visit everything, far enough away to not have the amount of people in Gulf Shores. The house was clean, all the bedrooms were comfortable and tidy. All of the bathrooms were a good size. Every morning you could get up and look out the front and see the ocean. Our group really enjoyed this location.

We loved the house and beach!! Also loved that it was pet friendly. The back queen bed needs fixed or replaced. The frame makes horrible noise if you even move.There are 2 charcoal grills we enjoyed also. Great family house and beach. Hope to come back!!

While the weather could have been warmer during our stay, we still had a great time. Nice being able to walk out your door, down the boardwalk to the beach ... perhaps about 75 yards or so. Had to call maintenance for an issue with the lock; he was at the property in about 30 minutes and was professional and was able to make a quick repair for us.
Would rent again.

Hi Lawrence, thanks for your patience as we troubleshooted the lock. We're glad you enjoyed the close proximity to the beach!
Fantastic home in a great location! The walk to the beach was barely longer than a beachfront home thanks to being right next to the beach walkway. The house was clean and comfy, and we loved the ice maker in the kitchen! The only things I’d recommend to the owners would be an outside shower head for rinsing off after beach trips, and a gas grill would be great. Maybe some “house” beach chairs. My family loved this property and we would definitely rent it again. We also really liked eating at the Sassy Bass Grill nearby.

Hi Robyn, thanks for the great review of Pelican View!
I have to say, this may be my favorite house we've stayed at through VRBO. The location was amazing, it was never noisy, the beach only steps away. From the kitchen and living room, the windows provide a view of the Gulf. The house itself was clean, in good condition. This location was far enough from the business of Gulf Shores, yet within easy driving distance to anywhere we wanted to go. My only recommendations are to bring extra blankets if you get cold easily at night. I would highly recommend this property to anyone. I hope to return.

The little things
The dumpsters were full for the first five days we were there, we had nowhere to put our trash, there’s a significant rip in the couch and the rug was torn, there was a dirty rag in the sink upon our arrival and the counters needed to be cleaned.

Chris, we are so sorry you had to deal with all of these issues. We are looking into the trash pickup. Did you call the office to let them know the unit was dirty? We would have sent housekeeping out to clean again. Again, we apologize for these things, thank you for letting us know so that we may make improvements.
The property was just as advertised, beautiful home just steps from the boardwalk. It was the perfect place for my family. Spacious bedrooms and the kitchen was great. It was fully stocked with any thing you could need. The only complaint I have is that when we arrived all three of the trash cans under the house were overflowing and there were several bags of trash on the ground. We had to take it to the street on our first night so we would have somewhere to put our trash. Other than that, everything was great.

Relaxing and comfortable
Absolutely loved the layout of the house from the kitchens to the bathrooms! The kitchen was dreamy with plenty of space to be able to prepare meals and have lots of people in the kitchen at the same time. The view from the kitchen was outstanding, even though it was not directly on the beach!
I would have given 5 stars, but the access to the beach was not ideal. There is a boardwalk, however there are no steps to get onto the boardwalk so you have to hoist yourself up about 3 feet, not ideal for wagons or strollers!!

Hi Rachel!
Thank you for the review. We are glad you loved the home! We are sorry that the boardwalk was not accommodating for you. Unfortunately I do not have any jurisdiction over this or I would have it fixed! Next time a direct beach home may be more suitable! Thank you for letting Harris Properties help you find your perfect spot in the sand! We look forward to hosting you again soon!
