Loved it!

Stayed in condo 2007 for a whole week and it was great! The view from the 20th floor is amazing. When we arrived everything was clean and check in was a breeze. Maintenance/ management was very effective, they accommodated un with a pack and play and Maintenance refunded us for the washer/dryer that we tried to use but was not functioning properly. Communication in general was fast. Only thing that could use an upgrade is the couch/sofa chair, both where a bit uncomfortable 😬 and looked old. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could need appliances/tool wise. We would definitely book again for this condo.

Keep Looking

Keep looking! The mattresses all need replaced; the springs can be felt while sitting on the couch; some outlets don’t work; the tv didn’t work in the bedroom; the microwave didn’t have a turn table; the bunk beds weren’t made when we arrived. I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere!

Pelican Beach Resort- Condo 2007

We came back to Destin for Fall Break for 4 days. We always come twice a year. We have stayed in the Pelican many of those trips. We were in the 20th floor and condo 2007. Our room was clean, spacious, and stocked. It had a beautiful view. Furniture is outdated but nothing that was a hindrance or necessity to our stay. The washing machine on the 20th was not working, but we were able to use one on another floor. One of the elevators was out for maintenance as well, so it did make wait times to go up and down a little longer. The beach was well kept and clean. We only were able to utilize the front pool and bigger hot tub one day, and then the remaining days it was drained and hated not being able to use this as it was my children’s favorite. This also made the other pool area so much more crowded. The Pelican Cafe and Tiki Hut was wonderful as I remembered it. All the food from the cafe is very good and the best pizzas. Overall we had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay.

Needs Updated ASAP

This is our 3rd time staying at Pelican Resort and this is by far the worst one we have ever stayed at. The entire place needs a major upgrade…..mold by AC vent, all furniture was old and very uncomfortable…..the stools you can’t trust to sit on because they wobble badly….beds were like sleeping on springs, fridge was rusted on the side, hardly any towels and bedding was provided, literally the worst VRBO we have ever stayed in. It’s so outdated that they have a stereo that has a cassette player…..everything is about that age.

Checkin

The checkin was a challenge. I asked for early checkin if at all possible and the checkin was actually an hour late and I only was able to get in the unit because they gave me the code over the phone after calling 2 times! The unit itself was great for me! Amazing views!

Needs some love and attention!

Over all, the unit met our needs. However, this rental as a whole needs some attention. For example, we had 4 forks to use, so we had to wash dishes after every meal. Not a huge deal, just inconvenient. The couch and bunk bed mattresses have outlived their use and need replaced. The master bath has more water pressure in the sink than in the shower, and the toilet seat barely fits a toddler. The shared bathroom has much better water pressure, however there is black mold in the shower and on the ceiling. The toilet is more comfortable yet it has been resealed so many times it sits crooked. The condo was cleaned to a respectable standard and the owner provides a substantial starter set of cleaning items for dishes and laundry. (Our shared washer for the 20th floor was broke during our stay.) This is a wonderful resort and we will return I'm sure. But, unfortunately, we will not stay in this unit again. We were not unhappy with our stay, just...not impressed

Lots of issue’s initially

There were no batteries in tv remote, only one chair on the balcony, the codes wouldn't work to get in the unit initially then again repeatedly, the unit also had no broom or dust pan to be able to sweep up sand off the floors and there was very little in way of things to cook with and use in the kitchen like a drink pitcher, a cookie sheet or filters for the coffee maker, we had to unexpectedly run back out to the store to buy filters for the coffee maker as we of course had no idea we would be needing them until we went to make coffee in the morning. There was mold in the guest shower at the top, dirt and an artificial nail that had come off someone’s finger behind the couch in the living room which was rather gross. The bunks could definitely use better and more comfortable mattresses too, they were very thin and hard. Vacasa did show up and fixed the code issues with the door and also brought batteries for the remote, a broom and dust pan and two more chairs for the balcony when asked which was helpful.

Best view in Destin!!

The view is absolutely amazing. From the 20th floor you can see for miles and miles. The room had everything our family of 5 needed. The resort has 3 pools, 2 hot tubs, Arcade room, Cafe, and food bar. Absolutely a great experience all around.

Good place to stay!

Read some of the other/older reviews and decided to give it a try. It was clean and at the very top floor so it does indeed have an excellent view. Great location in town. You have to have wristbands for the property and gate codes to get to the beach which makes is a private area. The electric went out within the whole building while we were there(probably from the storm) but they were quick to fix it. The only thing I did not like, the balcony door lock did not work and there was not a deadbolt on the front door. 2 big no no's when traveling with a 2 year old but we had to make it work.
