We had a great time

The condo was so clean and just like the pictures when we arrived. It was in a great location and had security walking around 24/7 so I felt very safe. Tufan communicated with me wonderfully and made this such an easy check in/ out. Would definitely stay again!

Great stay - exactly as advertised

We had a great stay while on our spring break week. Even though it was spring break week, the tower was not overcrowded. The owners were great to work with. They provide plenty of recommendations on things to do and places to eat. They placed a credit card hold for a deposit (as outlined during the booking process) and it was promptly released. The unit was exactly as shown in the pictures. Beds were comfortable (including the sofa bed). A generous supply of startup items were provided - paper towels, dish soap, shampoo, bath soaps, etc. There was a great supply of beach chairs and boogie boards on the patio, which was a nice plus. Overall a great experience and I would rent it again.

Convenience of property

A beautiful view of the ocean. Very convenient to local restaurants and shopping. Condo very clean and appropriate for four people and could sleep two more if using couch. Kitchen is well supplied with all items necessary if you plan to cook. Enjoyed time there except for the cold weather., not a time for the beach.

Great Location

We had a wonderful trip to Destin. The condo was just as described. Unit was not “Facing Ocean” but the ocean view from side was gorgeous. Unit was clean and furnishings comfortable. Lamps a little wobbly. Don’t forget to check the spare bedroom closet for beach goodies! Great location for dining out and shopping.

Great Vacation

Our condo was great. Beautiful decor and plenty of space for 4. The 16th floor had amazing views, both ocean and city views. The location is perfect for dining and shopping and directly across from the water park which the kids enjoyed. The only Con to our trip was the rip currents. All 5 days we were there, it was double red flags and no one was allowed to get in the ocean. Not even knee deep! We spent our time at the pools instead which were great but could become crowded as the day went on. The tiki bar was a great amenity at the resort!

Beautiful views!

Our family stayed 5 days at this beautiful condo. Truly steps away from the beach and so easy to get to the pools and tiki bar. The condo was beautifully decorated and the washer / dryer in unit was so helpful! If traveling with littles, make sure to bring paper plates or plastic dishes since the ones provided are all breakable. The Netflix included was a great touch and the extra bedroom did not have patio access which was hugely important to us with a 3 and 6 y.o.

About the host

Hosted by Tufan Beyatli Destina

Host profile image
We love beach vacations. Growing up in Cyprus, I used to think that no beach is better than the salty waters of Mediterranean and our sandy beaches are the best. Then I saw turquoise waters and sugary white beaches of Destin, Florida and fell in love at first sight. This is the reason we bought beach condos in Destin. We visit regularly as a family and rent them ourselves. We have a total of 7 units at Pelican Beach Resort. Waterscape, Majestic Sun at Seascape Resort and Luau, Bahia, Elation & Grand Sandestin at Sandestin Resort are our other locations. They are all by the beach and are updated. You can expect same great service and same attention to detail for all our condos in the area.

Why they chose this property

This is our 8th property in Pelican Beach Resort and second two bedroom unit. It is a great place for families and since it is right on the sand, it has great ocean views and quick beach access. It is in Destin downtown and very close to great restaurants. The staff is extremely friendly and all units have unbelievable views. This is a 16th floor condo, very close to the elevator by the parking lot entrance, easy access to the unit and great 16th floor views. The unit is updated and upgraded. Bedroom has ocean view and access to the balcony. You will love to wake up in the master bedroom.

What makes this property unique

Washer/Dryer in the unit.
Great Ocean views
2 bedroom for more privacy
Upgraded unit
Brand new appliances
Comfortable beds
Tried and proven cleaning service
Friendly staff
Ocean view bedroom.
Pack & play for toddlers provided.
