The home was really nice and centrally located. The private beach access just across the street was convenient and the ocean views from the balcony provided the perfect spot for morning coffee or late evening relaxing. The condo was spacious and provided ample space for our group to hang out together or chill in your own spot. The kitchen has everything you need for preparing meals and plenty of seating at the table. One of the nicest and best laid our floor designs we’ve stayed in over the years.

Amazing property! My three teenage daughters appreciated having their own space to retreat to while on vacation. Can’t beat the location - we appreciate being in a more quiet setting but close enough to all of the fun in Carolina Beach. And the walk to the beach is extremely close, which is stellar. This was our second year at this property and we look forward to possibly another.

Pelicans perch was just perfect for our families. Directly across from the beach with a beautiful view of the ocean. The three floors gave everyone enough space. The common areas were adequate for everyone to get together. The deck was beautifully appointed. The towels were plenty, the beds were comfortable, and all the Beach equipment was just perfect. Compared to Wrightsville Beach Kure Beach felt like a vacation. No traffic, hassles, no crowds, plenty of places for all types of food and very relaxing.

Pelican's Perch has become our family's favorite beach spot! The house is gorgeous and clean, the location can't be beat, and the property manager is tremendously supportive and responsive. When the grill went out, it was replaced immediately. This year, we really enjoyed riding through the neighborhood to the gorgeous bike path, with enough bikes in the garage for our family. The the view of the beach from the decks allows for a beautiful view of sunrises. The host is always very responsive in communication. We look forward to staying again next year!!

The place was great. We had a minor issue with the upstairs TV cutting off from the Wi-Fi. The non-stick pots and pans were peeling so you might want to bring your own.

We really enjoyed our stay at Pelican's Perch! The home is very clean and well-maintained and was perfect for our larger family group. The host is very responsive and answered all of our questions. The private beach access was great, and we really appreciated the available beach gear in the garage. We've already planned our stay for next year!
