This was our first time to this beach and area. The room was perfect and the hosts were very helpful and accommodating. The beach was not crowded at all. The condo is a perfect location just minutes from all sorts of restaurants and activities.

This condo was perfect in every way!! It was exactly as pictured and more than suited our every need. We arrived a little earlier than check in and the owners were so easy to communicate with, they even let us in a little early. It was wonderful to have my coffee out on the balcony every morning with the perfect view and sounds of the ocean. It was such a nice bonus to have chair service on the beach as well!! We came down for our 20th wedding anniversary and had a perfect week! We can't wait to come back!!

Great views and property!

Right on the beach as advertised! Reserved parking spot in the garage. The place was clean and well kept up. The owners even let us come a couple of hours early because they didn't have anyone checking out that same day, which was very kind of them and let us have extra beach time. Only thing, not a complaint per se, is the bed is firm, not soft, so be aware with your bed preferences. Pillows were very comfortable though, and so was the rest of the furniture. Great visit!

Clean & Comfortable

We stayed 10 days. If the bed is important to you, this has it! Starter supplies like TP and PT were nice. Be sure to plan a groc trip or delivery after day 1 though. Beach towels are a nice touch. Property staff were very kind and helpful if we needed anything. Beach service was such a plus! Great stay! If you're on the fence on whether to choose this unit, dont hesitate.

About the host

Hosted by Courtney & Phil Howey

Native to Colorado, We were looking for a bit of beach to call our own. We were first introduced to Pelican Isle in 2021 when friends invited us to stay with them and check out their beach front condo. Our boys at the time were 10 and 12 and our daughter 4. Not sure what we had in store, we quickly learned that Okaloosa Island is a FANTASTIC place to take our children. We could enjoy the quiet of the beach with out spending a fortune. The proximity of Pelican Isle to Destin and the Panhandle is one of many reasons we chose to make Pelican Isle our second home.

What makes this property unique

Pelican Isle Resort is a clean, quiet, and well-kept condo complex that is centrally located on beautiful Okaloosa Island in Fort Walton Beach. Just minutes from Destin (approximately 7 miles), and a short 15-20 minutes from the great Fort Walton Airport (VPS) where Allegiant, Delta, Southwest, American, & United Airlines all fly.
