Disliked: Check-in
My wife loves the beach, and we were able to enjoy a nice getway! The unit was nice and just as described. The beach access and chairs/umbrella setup were just what we had hoped for. The view from the porch was grand. The Ft. Walton area is a great part of the beach becasue it's not too hectic, but access to do anyting most you want is not too far away. The only drawback was that the system used to generate the check-in codes was delayed, but we were graciously given an extended checkout time. I'd certainly reccommnend it.

This condo was perfect in every way!! It was exactly as pictured and more than suited our every need. We arrived a little earlier than check in and the owners were so easy to communicate with, they even let us in a little early. It was wonderful to have my coffee out on the balcony every morning with the perfect view and sounds of the ocean. It was such a nice bonus to have chair service on the beach as well!! We came down for our 20th wedding anniversary and had a perfect week! We can't wait to come back!!

The Perfect Getaway

I can’t say enough great things about Manta Ray. The view is a dream and the balcony is a game-changer. The size of the condo is very spacious. It’s decorated to perfection and gives all of the beachy vibes. It is stocked with everything you possibly need. The owners truly put thought into this condo to make your stay enjoyable. The beach towels and washer dryer came in so handy. We loved Manta Ray so much that we’ve shared it with family and friends and look forward to coming back again. Our stay was seamless and the perfect getaway before heading back to school for the year! Thank you, Howey Family!

Great views and property!

Right on the beach as advertised! Reserved parking spot in the garage. The place was clean and well kept up. The owners even let us come a couple of hours early because they didn't have anyone checking out that same day, which was very kind of them and let us have extra beach time. Only thing, not a complaint per se, is the bed is firm, not soft, so be aware with your bed preferences. Pillows were very comfortable though, and so was the rest of the furniture. Great visit!

About the host

Hosted by Courtney & Phil Howey

Host profile image
Native to Colorado, We were looking for a bit of beach to call our own. We were first introduced to Pelican Isle in 2021 when friends invited us to stay with them and check out their beach front condo. Our boys at the time were 10 and 12 and our daughter 4. Not sure what we had in store, we quickly learned that Okaloosa Island is a FANTASTIC place to take our children. We could enjoy the quiet of the beach with out spending a fortune. The proximity of Pelican Isle to Destin and the Panhandle is one of many reasons we chose to make Pelican Isle our second home.

What makes this property unique

Pelican Isle Resort is a clean, quiet, and well-kept condo complex that is centrally located on beautiful Okaloosa Island in Fort Walton Beach. Just minutes from Destin (approximately 7 miles), and a short 15-20 minutes from the great Fort Walton Airport (VPS) where Allegiant, Delta, Southwest, American, & United Airlines all fly.
