About this property
Pelican Beachfront with Amazing Ocean Views
As soon as you enter our 8th floor beachfront condo, you will leave all your cares behind and unwind while enjoying a direct view of the Gulf of Mexico. You can walk to the beach straight out of the building, no need to cross any roads.
Many updates done in March 2020: new kitchen countertops, cabinets and stainless steel appliances, brand new queen size sleeper sofa bed, brand new furniture, new paint, new flooring, and brand new TV's (42 inch in bedroom and 55 inch in living room).
We have high speed WiFi.
Our family vacation condo is right at the beach with unobstructed Gulf views from the living room, balcony, kitchen and dinner area. It has new floors and new kitchen. Everything is upgraded. Bunk beds in the hallway to sleep 2. The views, especially sunsets and sunrises from 8th floor patio is amazing, it is very silent and tranquil up there. Most guests see the dolphins in the morning. We offer free high speed Wifi. Pelican Beach Resort is the prime family destination of the area. Tiki Bar is closed during Nov-Feb.
This is a no smoking facility, smoking is not allowed inside the unit or on the balcony. Resort has the eviction power for those who do not follow the rules. Smoking is only allowed at two designated locations at the Resort.
We do not offer any military or other discounts. Applicable last minute specials are already built-in to the daily rates. -You pay full amount to confirm your reservation. Please check applicable cancellation policy below-
Cleaning, linen and Resort fees are included in our pricing under "Host Fee" or "Cleaning Fee".
There is no road to pass, We are directly on the beach.
We provide 2 beach chairs and an umbrella for our guests. During March-October there is a beach service at the Pelican Private Beach and beach vendor does not allow chairs/umbrella in front of their rental chairs. For guests that prefer 1st or 2nd row seats, we provide their contact information, so you may reserve seats in advance.
PETS are not allowed per the HOA (no matter how small).
You will feel the luxury all around you in this condo. The unit is updated with new furniture and vanities. Kitchen cabinets are upgraded. All of the appliances are replaced with Stainless Steel units. The unit is tastefully decorated with everything that you would need. We operate the rental ourselves as a family so you will get individual attention from me.
We offer a combination Keurig and Regular coffee brewing machine as seen in the listing pictures. Please bring coffee and filters.
We provide washer and dryer in the unit for your convenience.
We also have a pack-n-play/travel crib available for use. The dimensions are 40*30*28 inches.
You will have access to everything Pelican Beach Resort offers. Amenities include 3 pools, sauna, steam room, cafe, Tiki bar, spa, large open deck, tennis courts.
There is no check-in or check-out at the lobby. You simply go to the condo, enter the door code and make yourself at home. Stop at Reception only to register (where they check the age requirements), get a parking pass and resort bracelets (during March-October) and sign off of the rules and regulations for the Resort. Please note that maximum of 6 people can register per unit.
Our check-in is at 4pm, Check-out is at 10 am. Since you directly go to the unit with your assigned door code, there is no deadline for checking in. You may check-in any time after 4 PM of the check-in day, just like you would at your own vacation home.
If you arrive early, feel free to enter into the resort, register at the front desk and get your parking pass and pool bracelets and enjoy the beach and the pools. However we do not allow early check-in's to the unit especially during high season since the unit is mostly booked back to back and we need extra time to prepare the condo
We give privacy and space for our guests but are only a phone call away.
Parking is free right at the resort covered parking area. Pelican Beach Resort has free beach access, free guest pool, free gym for guests etc.

Great Beach Stay
This place was clean with no issues during our stay. We were able to see dolphins swimming every morning from our balcony. The host was helpful and quick to reply to inquiries. We would stay at this unit again.

Highly recommend
Very clean and convenient. Loved the view from the balcony. Great communication with Host. Definitely recommend.
Directly on the beach! Very clean! Had everything we needed. Pictures are up to date/exactly what room looked like. Washer/dryer in the room was a lifesaver! Owner was easy to communicate with/check in was a breeze! We saw dolphins in the water on our last evening!

Perfect location!
We had a wonderful week at this condo. Nice and clean. Really enjoyed how close to the beach it was. Pool was heated, plus for me. Close location to all the shops (Publix,target, Walgreens etc. ) The owner replied very quickly and answered every question I had. I would recommend this place.
Overall, the condo was great. Very clean with an easy check-in process. The listing was accurate, except for the “Arcade” shown in the pictures, which no longer really exists (just a few claw machines remain).The location was excellent. Our only real issue was with the private beach setup. A rental company places around 150 chairs on the beach each day, and if you don’t rent one, you’re required to set up behind them. This creates a crowded, restricted beach experience. The beach became much more enjoyable after the rental company packed up around 5pm. The listing did mention the private beach, but the extent of the chair situation wasn’t fully clear until we arrived.Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay!
What a beautiful condo. The ocean view is super nice. The condo was well stocked with everything we needed. It even had beach chairs and an umbrella. Our host communicated quickly when we had questions. We hope to be back again in the future.

Beautiful stay!
Highly recommend this condo it was very clean and recently updated. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!
The condo was more than spacious enough for my husband and myself, and the view from the balcony was absolutely stunning! In addition to the two big pools and hot tub, it was nice to have a restaurant and a tiki bar on-site as well. We also had beach chairs, an umbrella, and beach towels at our disposal, so we didn’t have to reserve chair and umbrella service. It would have been nice to know in advance, though, that there was no shampoo, conditioner, or body wash in the condo. We assumed that there would be toiletries, so we didn’t bring any with us. We had to go out and buy some. The toilet paper and paper towels that were provided were very thin and cheap as well. Other than those minor inconveniences, we absolutely loved our stay!
