Summary:
Pelican Perch
The Space:
Whether you're here to spend long afternoons on the beach or just to enjoy a quiet and rejuvenating vacation with friends and family, this two-bedroom house is just what you've been hoping to find. Shrug off your cares and kick back in the spacious living room to stream a good movie or show on the flatscreen TV. You'll love taking your first cup of morning coffee out to the balcony to enjoy the lovely canal views while the world wakes up around you. After an afternoon on the beach, just a short walk away, you can come back to use the full kitchen to cook up a delightful meal for everyone to enjoy at the dining table with seating for four while the kids chatter away from the breakfast bar stools. Of course, there's nothing like an al-fresco dining experience, so be sure to take a few meals out on the balcony to enjoy the salty sea air and good conversation. The private washer and dryer will ensure everyone looks their best. The home even includes a fenced outdoor area for the family dog that joins the trip.

This place was exactly what we needed! Check in was easy, the house was clean, and had everything we needed. The dual balcony was a major plus! We were hoping for somewhere quiet with nice views and easy access to the beach. This place delivered!
We have stayed in 5 or 6 different houses in dauphin over the years. This has been our favorite by far. You’re right in the middle of the island. The house has plenty of room. It was clean and the beds were nice for once. We’ll be booking this house again for sure.
Yes the host was welcoming. The house was clean except for carpets in living room. They were very stained. Also, the front door lock was loose and didn't make us feel confident that we were safe from a break-in especially during the night. Shade in master bathroom needs replacing. And lastly, the outdoor furniture was very dated so we really didn't enjoy the front or back porches. Other than those issues the house was perfect for our needs. King bed was extremely comfortable. Still, not sure if we would return.
Traveled with my mom and three dogs. The home was ADORABLE and very clean also very easy to access. Very dog friendly, too. We'll definitely stay again next time we come down!
Great location and good house for family with kids
This property is practical and well suited for families with children. It’s also pet friendly. We were just a short walk from the beach. If you are looking for luxury keep looking but this fit what we needed for a low key family vacation.
Home was comfortable, nice water view from both the front and rear decks. Convenient for a dog with a small secure outside area for your pet. Would definitely consider staying again.
Great location and wonderful porch space. Our dogs loved the sunny decks and small fenced area to explore. Spacious master bedroom with comfy bed. Pack your kitchen items but pans and dishes are available. We would stay here again!
Really great home, excellent location. Comfortable and well stocked. We did not bring a pet, but very thoughtful pet accommodation. Fenced area, and closed porch.
Loved the house. Very clean. Comfortable beds
Our first visit here.
Nice kitchen.
Could use some updating on pans, etc
Otherwise a great place. Our dog loved tthe front
The sofas smelled of urine, but everything else was fine.

We sincerely apologize for the cleanliness issue you encountered upon arrival and appreciate you alerting us and allowing our team to make it right. We hope to host you for another truly carefree and great vacation in the future!
This house was everything we wanted and more. The house has a grill and beach supplies that was a nice surprise as well as the most comfortable beds. Our dog Barkley loved the beach and the fenced in back yard was a plus, super easy walk to the beach maybe 5 minutes. Will definitely be coming back! Thank you!!
Just right for us and fur baby. Canal view from front and ocean view from back deck. Could hear ocean at night. Roomy without being too big. Dog could just walk out door to secure deck with fenced in small yard space attached. Great ac. Short walk or drive to beach. We just got through booking again for the spring.
Excellent location, house was very nice. Problem with keypad not working was addressed, but not resolved. Local Vacasa employees were awesome, not so much the customer relations. Teresa and Trent were very attentive and could not have been nicer and more helpful.
Excellent experience. Property is located within a five minute stroll to the gulf beach, across the street from the northern shore, and a five minute drive from either end. House was big enough to feel relaxing but not so big that you felt lost. Very pet friendly as well. Fenced in area so we could open the door, let the dog go take care of business, and not have to worry or take her out on a leash every time. Will definitely look into this place again next time.
