Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pelican's Perch is in a great location, a few blocks to Duval and to the waterfront. It's an easy walk to many attractions and restaurants but when you return you come to a beautiful quiet location.

Excellent Stay in Key West

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at Pelican Perch very much. The location was perfect. The condo accommodated the four of us very well. Although the kitchen was small, it was adequate in that we did no cooking while we were there. The owners supplied plenty of items need for dishwashing and trash, as well as for washing in the washing machine. The back deck and front porch were used daily. There were plenty of bath supplies, as well.We did have an issue with hot water and leaks, but the management company corrected it as soon as they possibly could.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed at Pelican’s Perch and had a wonderful time. The unit was clean and the location was perfect! We loved the back deck and being able to use the grill. Compass Realty was wonderful to work with and even went out of their way to mail our car keys that we left behind in the unit. Amazing customer service!

Fall getaway

Lovely property, gardens and grounds and pool area. Very close quarters in the downstairs bedroom. Seemed a bit tight. Very close and tight in the kitchen area, but totally accomodating with needed kitchen and basic cooking supplies. The dining area pretty much went unused, so a wasted space for us. Loved the porch and sitting out there and on the back deck. Utilized the grill and it worked perfect. Would probably stay in the Truman Annex area again, just without as many people.

The place was clean and in walking distance to everything we needed. The new deck and grill were perfect for the nights we cooked. Our second time in Truman Annex and we would do it again.

Pelican's Perch review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great week. The place was nice, kitchen very small but we were not cooking. The new rugs in living room were a fall risk due to the ends not lying flat on floor, had to be very careful. Upstairs fan did not work. Location is fantastic, we stay in the general area most of our trips to Key West. Pool was very nice, large and close. In general a great experience.

Perfect location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We travel to KW often and this was our first time renting a unit. Compass was incredible to work with. The location is amazing, just outside of Truman Waterfront/Ft Zach and two blocks from the Green Parrot. We always rent bikes for the duration from WeCycle, and they are just down the street.We used Paradise Porters to hold and deliver our luggage before we could check in at 4 and can recommend them.It may be good to know that the upstairs primary bedroom is a loft and open to the house. The main floor bedroom is tight, but has a door. Property felt a bit worn, but is a cute standalone house with nice back deck, new grill, close to pool. We had cleanliness issues with the property, but Compass is managing that and was very receptive to feedback (Thank you!). I would not rent this property again, but might try another in TA in the future.

Very disappointing for the money we paid.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was very convenient. Close to the pool, close to Truman ParkThere were a number of little things that need attention which we made Compass aware of. The condition of the deck was the major issue as it was actually a safety issue. However the deck is scheduled to be replaced. The bathroom showers were very nice. The kitchen was too small for us since we like to cook in sometimes. It is basically a one person kitchen. All in all however the unit is nice and comfortable.

A little slice of paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Pelican's Perch was wonderful. The property was clean, bathrooms updated, and ample linens were provided. The kitchen is really small and the dining area was super cramped with a large tables and many chairs, which was difficult to move around, but we made it work. We weren't able to get the TVs to work, and we are pretty techy savvy, but this wasn't the end of the world, although it would have been nice to have listened to music channels, etc... The patio furniture was less than comfortable so we didn't spend much time out there which was disappointing. Two lounge chairs did show up on the patio near the end of our week, which was a nice surprise, but a more comfortable outdoor set up would add so much more to this property. All in all we were satisfied and had a blast! The location is awesome and it had everything we needed! Would recommend this property and we may even return again next year!!!
