*Sand Point Pelican's Perch - 250 Yds to Beach via Boardwalk + Ocean & Pool Views*
Pelican's Perch directly overlooks the pool/hot tub area and has ocean view from the sun deck. This magnificent beach home is in the Sand Point neighborhood with restaurant, pool, hot tub, beach boardwalk and golf cart access. It has two kitchens and sleeps 14 guests on one king, two queens, two twins, four twin bunks and a sleeper sofa. Plus four of the five bedrooms have their own private access to a full bath, so it's the perfect family setup for two or three couples with children or grandchildren.

Oh! and speaking of Sand Point, the Sand Point neighborhood is in town at marker #9 on the beach next to Beach Lodge (NOT way out of town, so far down Hwy 361 you can't even get a pizza delivered). In fact you'll only be a mile from the downtown area. The neighborhood offers a relatively large private pool and hot tub area exclusive to Sand Point plus a VERY SHORT private boardwalk and path over the dunes so there's no hiking or driving necessary from a home you just thought was going to be close to the beach. If you've ever stayed elsewhere you know what I'm talking about, but even if you don't have first hand experience in what I'm saying, why chance it? Stay with us at Pelican's Perch in Sand Point and here's another great reason why.

Sure most places have a coffee maker, and maybe a toaster but do they also have a blender, can opener, shrimp deveiner and remote controls that actually work? And are they fully stocked with complete cookware, dinnerware, glassware and silverware along with complete bedding linens and towels for the number of guests the home accommodates, as well as brand name dish soap, Tide laundry detergent, body wash, dishwashing detergent, coffee filters, trashbags, paper towels and high quality toilet paper all purchased by moms that care, for moms that care? Pelican's Perch has all this and more! So again, if you've stayed elsewhere, you know what I'm talking about. Give this Sand Point beach home a try to see how it works perfectly for your family too. We feel certain you'll be back again and again!

There's also a very popular restaurant in the neighborhood just steps from the home. The Beach Lodge serves breakfast, lunch and dinner in a casual setting right on the beach. In fact it's the only place in Port A to get a pot boil crab dinner and beer on the beach.

Additionally, we are THE PRIME LOCATION for SandFest which is an international sand sculpting competition held each year in April. It takes place right next to the Sand Point neighborhood's private boardwalk over the dunes so you can even see the action from the home. Where are you going to park? Shuttle? We don't need no stinkin' shuttle from across town. We're staying right next to SandFest at Pelican's Perch in the Sand Point neighborhood with pool, hot tub and direct beach boardwalk access to fun!

Remember folks, Sand Point is the ONLY neighborhood "in town" with restaurant, bar, pool, hot tub, beach boardwalk and golf cart access. So lock in your dates before some other savvy family gets on the calendar ahead of you. We'd love to host your next trip to Port A!

Close to pool and boardwalk

This property is right next to the pool, a short walk to the boardwalk and a quick drive to shopping. Beds, linens, towels and pillows were of decent quality. Ice maker in upstairs freezer kept up with our demands, so that's always a positive! Very happy with the house, location, amenities and price.

Prefect for a couple of families

Matthew was very friendly. The house though, is not set up for multiple families. I was there with my four children and their families. There are 3 bedrooms on the ground floor, if which oneouse needs better cookware and knives.

great house!

Wow what a great spot for my family! It was a short walk to the beach and right next to the pool. As others mentioned, you do have to go through one room to get to the rest of the house, which is unfortunate for the person in that room, however, we solved this by asking the kids in the bunk room to use the upstairs bathroom at night so they don’t go through that room. We had the max capacity of 14 people and were comfortable. Only thing to note is to bring your own pool/beach towels and toiletries. We would def stay again!

Will be a good idea to upgrade beds and everything else

Could do some upgrades, beds where very uncomfortable to sleep in and overall, the whole house. One of the bedrooms didn't have privacy. When we first open the door there was a terrible smell. There was no coffee to make in the coffee maker. Not coming back to this house.

Galan Family Vacation 2024

Matthew is a great host. House was perfect for 7 adults and 5 children. We stayed May 2nd - May 9th. Weather was perfect. Beach was close 2 minute walk down boardwalk. We rented a golf cart to pack all our stuff and little ones (2, 2 and 18 months). Cart ride was just a little further down the road but group would leave at the same time and arrive at the beach at the same time. Other reviews mentioned that you had to go through one of the bedrooms to go downstairs but that was not an issue with us. There are two living areas and we used the 2nd floor kitchen and living room to gather. We only had a couple, young adult and four kids sleeping down stairs and that is all we did down there. We finally realized on the second day that we could use the outside porch and stairs to move from ground level and 2nd floor where we gathers most of the time. Kids played on second level outside which is gated to keep them from accessing the outside steps. This was a great option in the morning because one bedroom was just below the upstairs living room and when kids played in the living room, those in the downstairs bedroom were not happy. We cooked most of our meals in the upstairs kitchen but there is a restaurant a minute walk away. Can't beat this place. We are looking forward to another trip there very soon.

Great location and stay

The place was located near the beach so it took 2-3 minutes to walk to the beach. it was next to the pool so was easy to know when it was busy or not. The house was great and the beds were comfy. the only slight issue we had was that one of the rooms was the pass through to the 2nd floor which was a bit awkward when a couple needed that space and we had to walk through it. Other than that, the place was great. Property manager was friendly and gave us great recommendations. we had an issue with the sinks and some flooding the first day. They immediately came out and fixed the problem. Also, the location was less than a 30 minute walk to the main area of Port A so we could walk over to pick up our golf cart and eat at the main restaurants. Would highly recommend!

Wonderful house! Great location!

We rented the house for Thanksgiving week. The house is beautiful, well stocked, great location, and the property manager is amazing! Matthew was great. Our dryer was not working well, within 10 minutes from my text, Matthew had someone come check it out and within one hour they had replaced the unit.

Perfect spot within walking distance to the beach!

Great vacation home that worked well for the family and friends. Had a ton of room with two kitchens and two lounging areas. The beach is a 5 min walk. Bring your own coffee, shampoo, and body wash. They do provide laundry detergent which was a plus. Love the location!

Great place!

We loved the location and the house. I felt it was a little under-supplied, but that is how they do things. Bring your own shampoo/conditioner and beach towels. They do not supply. Also most of the TVs didn’t work. And Lots of finagling to get the living room tv to work. But other than that, it was great! Great amount of space for our gang.

Loved getting to the beach in just a few minutes, either walking on boardwalk, or taking a beach cart to close beach entry. Since our balcony overlooked pool we were able to sit on our balcony & relax while older kids swam. Having 2 refrigerators was a definite plus. Matthew & guest services always responded quickly when we had a question. We had a great time here.
