2nd stay

This was our 2nd time staying at this resort and we love it. The room itself is great, clean and had everything we needed. Not a fan of how over crowded the resort seems, pools are always super packed.

Nice family vacation

Great location. We were able to see dolphins one morning while on the balcony. Room was nice and clean. Only reason for not 5 stars is the water pressure in the master bath, pressure was too low. The guest bath was just fine.

Spring Break Stay

First- the view here is unreal and makes it worth the price. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully equipped. The elevators are right around the corner and getting to the beach is so easy. We had a wonderful time. The unit could use some updates (worn condition). Would recommend at this price! We made great memories.

Middle of the road

The condo needs updated. Master bath def needs renovated. Hooks throughout the condo would be helpful especially in masterbath. The bathroom liner/curtain needs replaced black mold. The location is great, view is great. They need to spruce it up for the price they are charging.

Definitely Recommend

The room offered everything we needed. The location is very close to the main elevators and laundry room. I was worried that only being on the 4th floor we would not have a good view of the beach but I was wrong. Overall, 10/10 for our family of 6. If there needs to be any improvement then it would be maybe a better sweep between guest, however you’re at the beach, there will be sand everywhere regardless.

Great views with lots of property amenities

Overall we really enjoyed out stay. Below are pros/cons; PROS: Condo is a great space with amazing views. Good sized kitchen and to good sized bathrooms. Pelican Beach resort has tons of amenities to include 3 pools, private beach, tiki bar, and a gym. CONS: We had to buy things like salt, pepper, cooking spray, and coffee filters. I think these should be considered as something you supply those renting the property. Overall would definitely stay here again, but we would know that we need to buy a few more things than expected typically with a VRBO.

Wonderful Vacation

The condo was clean, and very spacious. The master bed was SO SO comfy! Perfect view of the ocean! The owners were quick to respond to our message and checked it to make sure all was well!! 2 pools and 2 hot tubs. The pools seem super kid friendly. The weight room and gaming room was a little confusing to find at first, but smooth sailing afterwords. The tiki bar was so cool and had delicious drinks! You get an arm band to have access to the pools and private beach! We loved everything about the pelican beach, and room 405!! Our only complaint was not in regard to room 405, but the laundry room. ( Well almost everything... The washer on the 4th floor was out and had a terrible smelling odor, we were asked to just use the 3rd floor laundry)
