We had a wonderful time at Pelican Terrace in Destin,FL. The condo was very clean, had everything we needed and we felt safe! The bed, furniture were all comfortable, and the Keurig was a nice touch! We had a beautiful view of gulf from our terrace, and could see the ocean as well.Thank you for a lovely time!

Beach wedding weekend

We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was nice, clean and spacious. I also had my wedding ceremony on the beach which was a few minutes from our condo. The location is perfect and close to everything, which saved us from spending alot of money on gas. My only complaint is that I thought we would have a better view of the beach .

Great location & view, modern furnishings, comfortable

The Terrace has everything you need for a large party. Our 2 bedroom was comfortable for a party of 6, with 1 or 2 kids sleeping on the couch bed. If you don't mind the short walk to the beach (as it is not directly on the beach), having access to the Pelican Resort, that DOES sit on the beach is really nice (Tiki Bar and extra pools).

6/10 Okay

The condo was nice, but the beach was very crowded.

We had a good experience overall, the condo was spacious and everything worked pretty well. But overall the price was relatively high, probably because it was on an island. The biggest challenge was the beach that it was always crowded. If you wanted to put up your own umbrella, you had to sit behind four rows of rented umbrellas, and then you could not even see the ocean.

Fabulous Get-away

We are repeat guests at Pelican Beach Resort but first stay at the Terrace. The u it is well decorated, comfortable and inviting.We enjoyed the pool being less crowded and the elevators were easily accessible. The beach is only a short walk. LDV beach service is fantastic. Be sure to reserve chairs and umbrellas well ahead of your stay. We would recommend the unit for groups of 4. There is a sleeper sofa that was uncomfortable but we made due. Realjoy is professional, communative and makes sure you stay is everything you want it to be. We will definitely be back.

Enjoyed our stay!

Overall everything was pretty good. A few complaints: water pressure in spare bathroom shower was not great, and the couple staying in there did not like that it was two twin beds pushed together. Felt that was false advertising for a king bed. The property was clean, easily accessible and perfect for what we needed and wanted. The beach was a bit further than expected and not super visible from the balcony. And the phone number provided was not to the resort so they were not familiar with the check in process. The listing is also not clear that this is a condo at a resort until after booking and you receive information regarding your stay.

Bailey, Thank you for the feedback regarding your stay. We apologize that your expectations were not met regarding the distance to the beach and that this was a condo in a resort. We will reassess the listing and investigate the water pressure. We're glad that overall everything was good and we thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Amazing & Beautiful Location

Overall, this was a wonderful experience! First and foremost the check in process was very easy and straightforward. The condo was beautiful, very clean; and very well decorated! My only complaint is that I wish the bathrooms were renovated as it’s seems the kitchen and living area were. However, it didn’t much effect the stay of my trip! The location of the condo is in a very safe and beautiful area guarded by security & fully gated around with only one entrance with security in the front! Walking to the beach for the first time was a little confusing, if you plan on walking to the beach from the condo you have to go through the property only, the bridge that goes across the pond is misleading as it brings you to the houses which are completely separate from the Pelican resort. All in All, I recommend this condo to everyone and give it a 5/5 for my stay!
