About this property

Pelican Beach Resort 713 - Beachfront, Downtown Destin, Heated Pool, Tennis!

Pelican Beach Resort 713 -

Paradise is calling your name, which means it’s time to book that Destin vacation you’ve been dreaming about! And Pelican Beach Resort 713 is the perfect vacation condo to make your beach dreams come true. This Gulf-front condo is located in Downtown Destin—conveniently close to the beach and all the exciting happenings nearby. It has two bedrooms and can accommodate up to six beach-going guests.

Perched high on the seventh floor of the Pelican Beach Resort, this cozy condo boasts incredible views of the glimmering gulf and sparkling sands. The sliding glass doors off the main living area open onto a breezy balcony overlooking the beautiful beach. It is comfortably furnished, creating a relaxed spot to watch the waves, enjoy a cold drink, and chat with your fellow vacationers. Inside, the sunny condo radiates a welcoming beach vibe. Lightly toned floors, neutral furnishings, and coastal accents contribute to the laidback feel. The living area includes a dove-gray queen-size sleeper sofa, a patterned armchair, and two vintage-modern accent chairs. This casual seating ensemble faces a pale-wood entertainment center and large smart TV (live TV not provided). A formal hardwood table with six woven chairs sits beside a sea-inspired abstract painting in the dining area. The kitchen is chic and spacious, featuring sleek quartz countertops, white cabinetry, a tiled backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar with two wooden stools.

The master suite is as light and sunny as the living area. It includes a king-size bed, contemporary furnishings, a colorful coastal painting, and access to the balcony with gulf views. Its master ensuite bath includes a glass-walled, walk-in shower with nautical-blue tile. The guest bedroom has a queen-size bed, wall-mounted smart TV (live TV not provided), and access to a full hall bath.

Aside from great beach views and comfortable vacation accommodations, guests will enjoy access to quality resort amenities. First of all, the resort has multiple sparkling pools, including one indoor/outdoor pool. Another one of the pools is surrounded by a sunny patio, lounge furniture, and tropical landscaping. Additional amenities include a beachfront Tiki Hut Bar, coastal café, gas grills, and tennis courts. Of course, the beach is only steps away, making it incredibly easy to hop between your condo and the sugary shore.

Pelican Beach Resort is very close to Destin restaurants, shops, amusements, entertainment, and fun activities. Just down the road, you’ll find HarborWalk Village, home to a variety of waterfront restaurants, popular bars, and live musical entertainment. Ocean Reef guests receive reduced rates on water rentals, boats, cruises, and more at HarborWalk Village. Big Kahuna’s Water and Adventure Park is less than a mile away and the perfect spot for memorable family fun. Other must-visit locations nearby include the Destin Commons, The Track, and Henderson Beach State Park.

Great view but experience was lacking

My family booked this condo for a three night stay. The photos online gave an appearance of newness that you don’t get at the condo. The view was lovely, but you can’t hear the ocean for the pools water fountain unfortunately. We dealt with two broken elevators all week which made the movement around the building somewhat difficult. We also dealt with very loud and angry people on the beach, watching security get called out twice. This has nothing to do with the condo, I understand, but in staying in Destin for multiple years now, have never dealt with these kinds of issues before. I will say that the guard at the entry gate was extremely easy to deal with and we did have cleanliness issues at check in that were dealt with immediately. All in all it was an ok stay, but not somewhere I would choose to stay again based on previous experiences.

Property Needs a Facelift

Was a bit disappointed with the way the second bathroom looked. Although the shower was amazing once we figured out all the knobs, the bathroom was small and needed a fresh coat of paint. The previous guests left frozen salmon in the freezer and we needed additional place mates for a six seater main dinning table.

Bare bones but nice

Overall, a nice property. One shower tricky to use, rusted, and water stained. Decor minimal and deck is in need of more comfortable seating and a table. No ice maker. No games or rainy day activities provided. I would stay at the resort again but not necessarily this property. Communication was all automated and only a land line is provided to call if there is an issue. When called, I left a message and I got no response.

Wish we stayed longer!

It was just what we were looking for! We had four adults and a 5 week old baby with us. The bedrooms were good sized and bathrooms were nice and clean. There was a pack n play there when we arrived that was not mentioned in the description. Good information to know if you’re traveling from out of state and flying. Would definitely come back.

Beautiful condo

This property was wonderful. Centrally located and plenty of amenities on site. My only suggestion to add to condo - add a few mats and or rugs to help with sand. Also, more patio furniture is needed. Only 2 chairs on patio and no small table to put coffee ect. Overall - it was a great week at the beach!

Poor customer service

We arrived to the resort, pulled up front to check in with the front desk. It was very crowded and busy with little parking to check in. Not a huge deal. We were then told we had to wear wristbands at all times while on the property and if we lost them, it cost to replace. We were very unhappy about being tagged all week. Again, not a huge deal. We grabbed our stuff and went up to our condo. When we opened the door, there was a HORRIBLE stench. After a day or two of this, we realized Someone had left seafood in the garbage disposal and did not run it. So gross! There were NO cleaning supplies available. When I requested a broom to sweep up sand, they did send one to us; however, we requested additional wash cloths and were told no, we had to use the washer and dryer and purchase our own detergent to run it. There were 5 of us and only 6 cloths, so everyday after our showers we had to do a load of laundry- which also included running the dryer twice because it never got our clothes dry the first time, even with a smaller load. We also requested additional toilet paper, as we were only provided with 1 roll! Again, we were told that we had to purchase our own to use. Same with paper towels. Beds were hard but not terrible. The pools were great- except for the drunks. One lady fell on top of me! When we got security (after offering to help her out but she declined) because she was falling asleep with her face in the water, he said “I don’t know what to do with her. Call 911 if it happens again.” There were piles of sea grass lining the beach and it smelled horrible. That’s not really their fault but still added to our disappointments. We were kicked off the beach to the left but later found out it is not really private! 20 ft from the water is- by law- public! Also, they would not “allow” our beach tent to protect our daughter from the sun and we were “not allowed” to set up our personal umbrella close to the water. Overall very displeased with the fact that apparently the resorts can’t get along enough to let people cross “their” beach. Check out went smoothly- but we were told to take our own trash out and do the dishes before we leave- even though we paid a hefty “cleaning fee.” Also their beloved wristbands did not need returned- so much for the replacement fee. Food prices were very high. For the 2 of us we spent about $60-$70 each meal. The balcony off our condo was the best part of the stay with a great view. We won’t be staying here again.

Condo was very nice/great location

Had a great experience- loved the condo. The only thing that could have been better is the house cleaning. The floor was dirty when we got there. They may have swept but definitely didn’t mop. My granddaughter that is still crawling got dirty instantly when we got there and we had to keep her from crawling which was hard to do! The condo did not come stocked with a broom or a dust mop. That would have been nice to have. Other than that we enjoyed the condo..
