About this property

3 min walk to beach on boardwalk Beautiful, Breathtaking Views~6 fl sweet spot!

Square footage: 1084
Sleeps: 6

Property is on the gulf side of 98. Steps away from the beach on an easy path to the property boardwalk. A 3 min walk with amazing balcony views of the gulf and nearby lake, well appointed spacious 2 bed 2 bath 6th floor condo at the Terrace of Pelican Beach is the perfect location for a relaxing beach holiday. Balcony faces southwest for perfect sunsets. No long wait for elevator. Follow the property boardwalk and arrive quickly at the beautiful white sands of Destin. No crossing the HWY. Umbrella service is an option and is best booked online before hand! Onsite, seasonal tiki bar and pizza shop! 4 pools, including a new wade in pool, and hot tubs are waiting. There are gyms and bbq areas and of course elevators and trolleys to help you with moving in! Great for families and couples alike.

Within walking distance of many near by attractions and shops, such as Big Kahuna's Water Park and Winn Dixie, there are several additional eateries, fish markets, butchers, surf shops just a short walk away. Harbor Walk, Village of Baytowne Wharf and Silver Sands Premium outlets are all a short drive or bike ride away. So many wonderful shops, delicious restaurants, outdoor events and festivals to see. Our favorite? Rent a pontoon, tiki boat or wave runners and spend the day swimming with dolphins and enjoying the merriment at Crab Island!

The Balcony~2 sliding glass doors open to the private balcony from the master suite and living room.

It was a great stay. Only downfall was the rules that were set for the beach. We had our 1.5 yr old and we’re told we could not have a canopy on the beach for him because it was too big.

Fantastic view and location. We had a wonderful time and Lori was very communicative and helpful. The only issue we had was construction or remodeling going on one day in another unit that we could hear most of the day we were in the condo.

Destin Getaway

Very nice property in a great location. Lori was awesome to deal with….answered every question in a timely manner. She went above and beyond to ensure we were set up with everything we needed. Condo was the perfect size for us (3) and my two parents who visited during the day. We will stay here again in the future. I’m new to VRB0, but I hope every home owner is this pleasant to deal with down the road!

Great!

The only “complaint” I would have is that it’s not directly on the beach. But the walk isn’t bad. You just walk through a parking lot. Due to that, We ended up eating lunch from the cafe instead of our own food from the grocery store. Which can be costly. But overall, I would stay here again. Condo was nice and clean. I liked the location being it wasn’t far from anything and you didn’t have to travel deep into Destin with all the traffic. I can’t say enough about the owner. She was so helpful throughout the whole booking and stay. She let me know ahead of time of an issue with the washer and was able to get it fixed rather quickly. We had a great vacation!

Virtual Impressions aren't always what the seem

This property was ideally located to a beautiful beach, but that is not my reason for this poor review. As a rental property owner, I am conscientious of the heighten concerns for cleanliness and most importantly proper COVID standardized disinfecting . I feel that this property owners did not follow a conscientious standard to ensure whomever they have servicing their rental are following CDC approved or for the most part basic cleaning practices. My wife, guests and I cleaned areas that clearly had not been properly cleaned, if at all. The bathroom had no hooks for hanging our towels and as such required that they be placed on bathroom furniture that had dust and dirt accumulated on them. One such piece of wooden furniture placed over the toilet clearly had dried toothpaste stains and no telling what else invisible to the human eye. There was dust, dirt and trash behind the beds. A sofa throw was so soiled by past use that we had to wash it in the washing machine. These initial signs of a poorly cleaned location set the tune for the rest of our visit. I addressed these issues with the owner via email exchanges but her dismissive attitude only further concerned us that the poor cleanliness had more to do with economics than safety. I requested a refund of the cleaning fee that I was charged but instead the owner offered to reclean the rental. This was not acceptable to us halfway through our stay, but in all reality I don't think this was a serious offer as intentions to replace a cracked glass coffee pot and remove a broken chair never occurred. Property owners should be more conscientious of their obligations to ensure that guests/ visitors needn't be concerned on whether the bedspread they are covering themselves with is cleaned or when was the last time the dark bathroom rug at the foot of the toilet had been properly cleaned. I will not stay at this property again. VRBO should ensure that those using their site to advertise their properties for vacation rental are following approved and standardized cleaning. I am sure hotels have obligations to take certain steps to guarantee the cleanliness of their locations, why doesn't VRBO do the same?

Perfect family location

Let me start off by saying the host, Lori was awesome and very easy to get ahold of. Property is very convenient on Destins main strip and only a minute walk to the beach. Condo was very clean, open and comfortable. If you’re looking at other properties; don’t. This is the one you want.

Research before you book

Trouble at front desk with not giving my 3 year old an arm band and security ask for it everyday . Upon entering the condo we are told only 1 shower is working for 6 people . Had to spend half day way waiting on service to fix it . Ceiling fan in master about to fall and trash in small bedroom not cleaned out from night before . Condo owners kept in contact and was sorry for the troubles . Condo very spacious and pretty . Was a little further from beach than I had thought . The view was pretty of the bay but I prefer beach front and this is my own fault for not doing my research . Condo stocked well with cooking supplies . Things happen I just hate I had so many things to happen in one visit , but no harm done .

About the host

Host profile image
Close family that loves to travel. We always try to rent a home away from home! we love to have a larger space and a full kitchen to call our own. Travels include renting homes from fellow owners in : Costa Rica, Ireland, St George Utah, Zion, Grand Canyon, Sequioa National Forest, Badlands, Rocky Mountains.......

Why they chose this property

Stunning views! So much to do in the area! We love to boat and bike and the area is the perfect balance of activity and serenity. 6th floor in a modest sized beatituful building with clear views of gulf but rarely a wait at the elevator. Afternoon sun makes swimming at the pool a perfect place for evening cocktail and beach wind down after day in the sun. Kids love this pool with ledge and stairs. Midway between Harbor Walk and Baytowne Wharf. Walking distance to Winn Dixie, local seafood shops and target.
