Truly beachfront
This property was as good, if not better, than advertised. It felt larger than I had thought it would be. I think 6 people would be very possible, but for just my wife and I, it was quite roomy. The balcony was our favorite spot in the evening, and walking down to the water takes only minutes with direct beachfront access and no streets or boardwalks to cross. Perfect! My wife used both pools during our stay and said they were very nice. The condo itself was nicely updated with well thought out design that constantly remind you that you have arrived at the beach. I didn't try the bunk beds, but I bet young kids would love them! We are already planning our next visit and hope this condo will be available. The manager of this rental, Kris, was responsive and very helpful.

Perfect Destination in Destin
I have stayed at many VRBO units over the years. I do a lot of research before I make my final selection. I have rarely been disappointed and usually my choices are all close to a perfect match. I can usually judge if the unit is good as soon as I walk in the door. This unit was as close to perfect as you can get. When you walk into the unit, you see that green table and chair set on the balcony and the Gulf behind- PERFECT. I do not think I even unpacked. I grabbed a glass of wine and sat on the balcony - Just looking at the view. And when the sun set, it was perfect every day. You could not make it any better. Then add the pools, the hot tubs, the ocean. To top it off all the restaurants were close. It was smack dad in the middle. Just as advertised

Host profile image
Hi and welcome to the beach! As a North Dakota native, I escaped the cold and snow and am proud to be an Emerald Coast resident since 2002! I own and operate a small collection of amazing vacation rental properties with my boutique agency, Beach Stays Vacations. I realized the way people vacation has changed along with their expectations and I couldn't find a company to manage my properties the way I would. And that is how Beach Stays Vacations was born! We are selective about the properties we manage and have curated an amazing collection of beach condos and villas in Florida and Alabama! We promise a well decorated and equipped, clean condo to make your beach vacation the best it can be!

Why they chose this property

Pelican Beach is an amazing central Destin location located smack dab in the heart of the best dining, shopping, and entertainment the Emerald Coast is known for!
