The property has a lot of amenities and is walking distance to shops and dining. Location is great! The condo itself has everything you need. The chairs on the patio are Adirondack, not the most comfortable and can’t see over the railing when sitting, but the ocean view is amazing. The management was very proactive and communicative.
I give it 5 stars! The condo was better than the pictures even showed. We recieved a welcome email with a code to get in 1 week before our dates, and we had zero issues upon arrival. The building is well-maintained, parking is easy/free, the building is gated, and the condo itself is really nice with a beautiful view. We had a great week here and will book again in the future!
This condo was nothing short of amazing! Communication with the owner was easy! The cleanliness was outstanding, I have never been to the beach and stayed at a place so clean (& we go often, so this says a lot). We literally didn’t even feel sand on the floor or in the bed. Very well taken care of! Condo was up to date on appliances and furniture. We will definitely be back!!! Thank you so much, Steve!
Property was nice, pretty clean, could use some extra cleaning. Couch had some crumbs of something in the cushions that needs cleaned and tv in master bedroom only had one channel, ??? . But over all very nice unit.
Had a great time. Beautiful unit. Front desk folks were difficult to understand but nice.

Beachfront pool, tiki bar, umbrella service. Sand and ocean is so clear. Staff very good and friendly. Plenty of restaurants close. Our unit was 8th floor and away from lower level noise which quicjly ended by 9pm.
This is a beautiful ocean front condo in a wonderful resort we love staying at the Pelican Beach Resort they everything you need right there at your finger tips
Condo was great and literally on the beech. View was amazing. The hosts were very responsive. However, NO ONE wears masks inside of the public spaces. I was not prepared for that!
Overall the stay was great! The condo was a great size for our family of 4. The view from our balcony was amazing, we spent every morning out there drinking our coffee, what a great way to start your day! We had a minor issue with the cleanliness of the condo but it was addressed immediately and we were very pleased with the communication with the host. The location of the condo was right in the center of the main strip so it was busy, making it a little difficult to enter and exit the resort.
This was an amazing property and a great experience. The check in process was smooth. The staff was courteous and helpful. The property was clean amenities were awesome. The view was amazing. The thoughtfulness of the small things on the property were generous. Comfortable clean accommodations. Our stay was perfect!
The condo was wonderful and just as pictured. Great views of the beach!
The rental was very smooth from beginning to end. Condo was clean and comfortable with excellent views. The property is very nice and the new pool will be a big bonus. The owners were great and checked in on occasion to make sure that everything was going well. I appreciated their attentiveness. Looking forward to staying at Pelican Beach Resort again in the near future.
The condo was great! The condo owners were very responsive and easy to get in touch with. The condo was ready super early on the day we arrived which was soooo nice because we were planning on getting there early to get a late lunch and then check in, but it was already ready once we arrived so we were able to drop all of our stuff off and then go get lunch! Checkout time was also pretty flexible. My boyfriend of 6 years and I had a lovely time and will for sure be returning. Since it was only us two, there was so much space to spread out and having two bathrooms was awesome too. Highly recommend!
