Beautiful House

We had a wonderful girls trip with 3 adults & 3 teens. The house had everything we needed for a quick getaway. The outdoor spaces were nice and the neighborhood was really quiet… even during spring break week! The beach towels and chairs were a nice bonus that saved us some space with packing. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic property in a great location

Our extended family, 5 in total stayed at the Blue Pelican for the long Easter weekend. The house was even nicer than the photos and we were happily surprised to find a well outfitted kitchen and pantry. The large deck with beautiful ocean views were the highlight. We can't wait to come back! I wish I could give Julia an extra star for communication and making the check0in as easy as possible. It was the best experience I've had with a VRBO property.
