About this property

Direct Ocean Front 2 Pools/Ground Floor- Drive on Beach! Rocket Launches weekly!

Welcome to The Seashell at the Pelican!

Step into a tropical paradise at our stunning 1st-floor beachfront condo, just steps away from two refreshing pools—one heated, the other cooled—right on the sand. This beautifully appointed condo has been meticulously designed for comfort and convenience, offering all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay. Recently renovated with brand-new furnishings as of February 2024, it boasts a cozy, open-concept living space, including a fully equipped kitchen with full-size appliances and a dining area that comfortably seats six.

After a fun day at the beach, unwind in the living room, complete with a massive 90-inch LED Smart TV. Kick back in one of the two full-size recliners, or stretch out on the brand-new full-size sofa bed. The condo also offers a well-stocked game cabinet, filled with board games, puzzles, and DVDs for all ages, as well as high-speed Wi-Fi (200 Mbps) to keep you connected. Need to catch up on work? The guest bedroom features a versatile folding desk, which can be used anywhere in the condo for your convenience.

The entire condo underwent a complete renovation in May 2024, ensuring you enjoy a fresh, modern space throughout your stay.

When it's time to rest, retreat to the plush king-size bed in the master bedroom, or let the kids drift off to sleep in the guest bedroom, which offers two twin beds with Tempurpedic mattress pads. There's also a twin XL folding cot with a Tempurpedic mattress for extra flexibility. If you prefer, you can also relax on the sofa bed in the living room. Since the condo is located on the ground floor, you can keep an eye on the kids at the pool directly from your living room, or step out onto your private lanai, just steps from the pool.

The shared courtyard features a cozy outdoor "living room" with comfy seating, and the sundeck offers stainless steel professional gas grills, brand-new shuffleboard courts, and plenty of seating for socializing or enjoying a meal with a view of the ocean. For those who love to swim, you have two large pools to choose from: one for those hot days and another heated pool for cooler months. Plus, we provide four beach chairs, coolers, a beach cart, kids' toys, and noodles, so you can make the most of your beach experience.

The Pelican Resort is ideally located just minutes from Flagler Avenue and one of Florida's last driving beaches, where you can drive your vehicle right onto the sand and park just steps from your condo. For over 30 years, the Pelican has been the top choice for family vacations in New Smyrna Beach. Come and discover why!

back home

Hosts were extremely hospitable and quick to respond when I had booking questions. The ground-level condo facing pool and ocean was perfect for our family of four, making beach and pool viewing and entry easy. A warm, nicely decorated condo made me feel at home. The only drawback was that we had to wash every bed linen before our 1000am check-out time. It definitely changed the dynamics to checking out...especially with our tweens. So while I'd rate that experience lower, I'd rate the hosts and the condo high ratings. I'd definitely stay again. My family who visited me for an afternoon from Orlando loved it and said they would rent in future as well. It wins you over. thanks for the lovely stay!

Great spot, great view!

This ground level condo was very nice. They provided everything for a much needed weekend getaway. The owners were easy to communicate with which is always a plus and we only needed to because the building letter was left off of the suite # and we did not know there were 4 buildings, oops! Anyway, no biggie because owners were quick to respond. There are books, games, blankets for rainy days and beach towels and chairs for the sunny ones. It is not super close to Flagler but not too far either. You will want to drive unless you are looking for some good exercise before eating. And then you can have a golf cart taxi bring you back! The pools are great and have a deep end, yay! The suite had all the kitchen equipment we needed. There were plenty of bath towels, wash clothes, even body soap, s&c dispensers in both showers. I realize this review is all over the place but I want you to know I feel as though you can’t go wrong renting this suite, we definitely would again! Thank you guys!

Great Place To Stay

We stayed here from 11/15 - 11/18/2023. The condo is large and we had a very nice stay. The weather rained the entire trip so it was great to have this spacious condo versus a hotel room. We talked with some other owners briefly and they were very nice. The owner, Heather was very responsive and nice to talk with. if I had thoroughly read the instructions she sent, I would not have needed to contact her. Make sure to read and you will have an easy experience (door lock entry, hot water fuse, etc.). Overall this place is great and I would return. Thank you.

They had all the amenities you could want for a beach trip and the layout is perfect and allows you space to move.

About the host

Hosted by Heather and Jacob

Host profile image
My Wife and I are super excited for you to enjoy our little slice of paradise. We love traveling and the Beach is always one of our favorite destinations and hope it will be for you as well. We are a young couple with 2 young girls and love traveling. We have traveled every single beach in FL, as well as Rio De Janeiro, Hawaii Big Island and Kuaui, and we keep coming back to NSB as one of our favorites. This is our very own vacation home and looking to share this wonderful getaway with great people that appreciate a clean and inviting atmosphere with all the creature comforts of home. We hope that you will also enjoy this beautiful piece of paradise, and we look forward to accommodating your next vacation very soon.

Why they chose this property

This property is unique as it is one of the few in NSB that will give you ground floor access with direct Pool and Ocean views and access. this was important for us especially with our young children requiring supervision at the pool and around property. Parking is quick and convenient located just steps from front door, including Handicapp spots. It provides a unique view of the pool and ocean, and can provide you peace of mind as you can view your entire party at the pool or ocean decks right from your living room and lanai. No hallways or corriders, stairs or elevators to travel as you go back and forth from your unit and ocean. Get to the pool and forgot something, just have your kiddos walk back to your unit for you while you stay on your pool lounger watching them the entire time. No breaking sight with the view to grab that sunblock you forgot in your unit.

What makes this property unique

Ground Floor with direct view and access to pools and ocean and parking outside. No stairs, elevators or long corridors to travel down to get to or from unit. Great for those that need handicapp access or other easy access. Also a very quiet Condo Complex as most units are owned by Primary homeowners.
