Relax on our balcony and enjoy the direct view of the beach that Southern Living Magazine voted #1 in the United States! Located on the 18th floor, watch the dolphins play in the beautiful emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Sunsets with the most vivid colors are especially memorable.

This condo has 18' travertine-like tile throughout with LVP floors in the bedroom, a queen sleeper sofa, an updated kitchen with quartz countertops, and much more. We have not stopped there though - we are continuing to make upgrades and improvements to make your stay more pleasurable. There are five other condos available, four on the same floor and one that is one floor below if you have friends or family that would like to join you on your vacation.

This condo has a keyless entry - no key to pick up or send back and forth, no key to worry about losing at the beach. Less hassle and saves time.


The master bedroom has a king-size bed for your comfort as well as a private bath. Two bunk beds in the hall, a queen-size top grain leather, sleeper sofa and an additional full bathroom allow up to six people to sleep comfortably.

Location is always key and Pelican Beach Resort is very conveniently located. The condo is right across the street from the Big Kahuna's water park, very close to shopping and numerous great restaurants as well as many other resort activities. This newly remodeled condo is a great value right in the heart of Destin!

HURRICANES: Though I hate to mention it… If the area is under a Hurricane Warning issued by the National Weather Service, I will refund all of your money if you have not arrived yet or prorate the days that you are forced out. Believe me, my fingers are already crossed.

Great place to stay!

This was our second time staying at Pelican Beach Resort, but first time in this condo! It was very nice, clean and comfortable! It had plenty of towels, wash rags and hand towels for the bathrooms! It had plenty of things for the kitchen as well as bedding/pillows! We will definitely keep this condo in mind for next year as we travel to Destin once each summer and have since I was little (I’m 38 now)! Book this condo, you won’t be disappointed!

The room is very beautiful with a great view of the beach. It was bigger than what I had imagined. The kerug and a regular coffee pot in the unit was nice. We had all the conviences you would need on vacation. Somethings to be aware of: *The mattress in the master bedroom needs to be replaced. We probably should of called the owners but we didnt and we managed. *The washer and dryer is located down the hallway for units to use for a cost however, it is close to this unit so that was nice. *This doesnt have anything to do with the unit but just so you know....you are not allowed to have any personal tents or umbrellas and sit on the edge of the beach near the water. You can behind all the rented chairs which take up the majority of the space. To rent 2 chairs and 1 umbrella its 175 plus tax (194.00) for 6 days. It is a nice unit and a gun place to stay!.

Great location!!! Super close to great restaurants and shops. The Big Kahuna water park is literally right across the street and The Track Family Fun Park is less than 5 minutes away. The beach is absolutely beautiful. And my favorite part, the Tiki Bar by the pool that provides drink and food service while you’re on the beach.
