Perfect Destination in Destin
I have stayed at many VRBO units over the years. I do a lot of research before I make my final selection. I have rarely been disappointed and usually my choices are all close to a perfect match. I can usually judge if the unit is good as soon as I walk in the door. This unit was as close to perfect as you can get. When you walk into the unit, you see that green table and chair set on the balcony and the Gulf behind- PERFECT. I do not think I even unpacked. I grabbed a glass of wine and sat on the balcony - Just looking at the view. And when the sun set, it was perfect every day. You could not make it any better. Then add the pools, the hot tubs, the ocean. To top it off all the restaurants were close. It was smack dad in the middle. Just as advertised

Quick trip
We booked a trip for a quick beach vacation. Loved the security at the resort. The condo was exactly as pictured and we had everything we needed in the condo to cook. The option to order food and drinks from the waitresses was a huge plus in keeping everyone fed and happy. A+ stay and trip!

Host profile image
Hi and welcome to the beach! As a North Dakota native, I escaped the cold and snow and am proud to be an Emerald Coast resident since 2002! I own and operate a small collection of amazing vacation rental properties with my boutique agency, Beach Stays Vacations. I realized the way people vacation has changed along with their expectations and I couldn't find a company to manage my properties the way I would. And that is how Beach Stays Vacations was born! We are selective about the properties we manage and have curated an amazing collection of beach condos and villas in Florida and Alabama! We promise a well decorated and equipped, clean condo to make your beach vacation the best it can be!

Why they chose this property

Pelican Beach is an amazing central Destin location located smack dab in the heart of the best dining, shopping, and entertainment the Emerald Coast is known for!
