About this property

Pelican 16th floor 1 bedroom Condo on the beach -

Our family vacation condo is right at the beach with unobstructed Gulf views from the living room, balcony, kitchen and dinner area. It has new floors new kitchen and new furniture. Everything is upgraded. Bunk beds have flat screen TV's. The views, especially sunsets and sunrises from 16th floor patio is amazing, it is very silent and tranquil up there. Most guests see the dolphins in the morning. We offer beach chairs/umbrella, Netflix at every TV and free high speed Wifi. Pelican Beach Resort is the prime family destination of the area. Tiki Bar is closed during Nov-Feb.

This is a no smoking facility, smoking is not allowed inside the unit or on the balcony. Resort has the eviction power for those who do not follow the rules. Smoking is only allowed at two designated locations at the Resort.

We do not offer any military or other discounts. Applicable last minute specials are already built-in to the daily rates. -You pay full amount to confirm your reservation. Please check applicable cancellation policy below-

We do a credit card authorization of $300 as a security/damage deposit, one day before check-in, but never charge your credit card. We automatically release this authorization hold 1 day after check-out. -This item may be stated as "deposit paid at the property" in the quote-

There is no road to pass, We are directly on the beach.

During March-October there is beach service at the Pelican Private Beach and beach vendor does not allow chairs/umbrella in front of their rental chairs. For guests that prefer 1st or 2nd row seats, we provide their contact information, so you may reserve seats in advance.

PETS are not allowed per the HOA (no matter how small).

If you reached us through vrbo/homeaway/expedia you will have to book through that channel as we do not accept direct bookings when approached through those channels. For repeat guests we may provide our vacationsatdestin site.

We do not have snowbird monthly rates. We provide a 20% discount for stays longer than 28 days. This discount is already built into the rate you see when you go to "pay now".

Our similar other unit's VRBO listing numbers are given at the end of this description. You may check those if your dates do not show availability.

Cleaning and linen fees are included in our pricing either under "Resort Fee" or "Property Association fee". The longer you stay, the less rent you pay per night since the Resort fee is averaged over your stay.

You will feel the luxury all around you in this condo. The unit is updated with new furniture and vanities. Kitchen cabinets are upgraded. All of the appliances are replaced with Stainless Steel units. New 55 inch TV at the living room, New 43 inch TV in the bedroom. Freshly painted baseboards, doors, trims and custom bunk beds with 32 inch TV's with Netflix. New memory foam Twin mattress in bunk beds. Cool Gel queen memory foam mattress at the sofa bed. The unit is tastefully decorated with everything that you would need. We operate the rental ourselves as a family so you will get individual attention from me. I have four other units in Pelican Beach Resort, that are listed recently with great reviews. We use same cleaning company with same attention to detail.

We offer a combination Keurig and Regular coffee brewing machine as seen in the listing pictures. Please bring coffee and filters.

Coin operated washer/dryer in the floor, next to the elevators at the laundry room (bring 10 quarters for one washer/dryer cycle).

Stop at Reception only to register (where they check the age requirements), get a parking pass and resort bracelets (during March-October) and sign off of the rules and regulations for the Resort. Please note that maximum of 6 people can register per unit.

Our check-in is at 4pm, Check-out is at 10 am. Since you directly go to the unit with your assigned door code, there is no deadline for checking in. You may check-in any time after 4 PM of the check-in day, just like you would at your own vacation home.

If you arrive early, feel free to enter into the resort, register at the front desk and get your parking pass and pool bracelets and enjoy the beach and the pools. However we do not allow early check-in's to the unit especially during high season since the unit is mostly booked back to back and we need extra time to prepare the condo

We give privacy and space for our guests but are only a phone call away.

Parking is free right at the resort covered parking area. Pelican Beach Resort has free beach access, free guest pool, free gym for guests etc.

Love the view! Nice accommodations. Only negative would be a little hard to get out and in at the Highway .Love that it was near Henderson Park so we could sit near the water and not worry about renting chairs.

Great stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed renting this property. Tufan communicated several times and checked in on our arrival. The only thing we were missing was a box of tissues and I had requested a dish cloth. There was a sponge available, but Tufan said that I could purchase a dish cloth and he would reimburse me that was kind. The bedroom was comfortable, but the pillows were somewhat flat, although there were several to choose from. The kitchen had everything that we needed. We really appreciated being able to use the beach, chairs and umbrella and it was easy to set them up. The deck on the condo was shaded and provided an excellent view of the beach in the water We ate at the café the first morning, and there were several items to choose from which were all good. The air conditioning was very good, and we finally figured out how to permanently, set it a little warmer. you could choose a temporary holder a permanent hold. And if we were coming without family, we would definitely stay here again. Basically. We had an excellent day! Thank you so much for offering this property! Just a note for those who are catching late flights like we did…(9:02 pm) check out is at 10 AM so we had time to kill and the facility property does not have a secure place to keep your bags. They did offer to keep them within site just across from the desk, check-in area, which we did. And that seem to work well.

Short getaway vacation
Easy booking, check-in and check-out. Owner responded quickly to text messages. Really liked that the facility and beach area was no smoking. We were on the 16th floor and the view was gorgeous. The unit was nicely decorated and had all the needed necessities in the kitchen. I would recommend a stay here again.

Kitchen is properly equipped to cook a full meal, bunk bed space is nice feature. King size mattress could be more comfy. It’s nice they provide chairs in the room with you to bring to beach and very easy access to elevators which is really important. Great location as well. Also the perfect straight forward view of beach from balcony.

Excellent place to stay
It is really a nice property. We spent 5 days there with my family (wife, kids -ages 5 and 7) and we had a blast. The private beach area is pretty big, reasonable prices, drinks served, food is great, pool was clean… We were there in the peak spring break season and their hot tub is small. For 22 floor, 18 units per floor, it was not designed properly.

Great for our short getaway
Simple check in/out process. The host send several emails so you know exactly what to do before, during and after your stay. Condo is nice. AMAZING VIEW! We ate out, so didn’t really need the kitchen. I decided to take our own towels because they stressed not staining their towels (which I thought was weird- have never heard of this before and didn’t want to take a chance of impacting the hold required for incidentals). The condo was extremely dusty everywhere- surfaces in the bedroom, bathrooms, kitchen and living room areas, so the surfaces were not cleaned per their Covid procedures as advised. I’m guessing no one has rented it in a while. It could use a thorough cleaning. To the host’s defense, we did not contact them as the sheets in the bedroom seemed fresh, we booked last minute and were only there for a short stay. Overall we were pleased and would book again, just in enough time for them to properly prepare for our arrival.

Very Enjoyable Stay
This property was exactly as expected. The view is absolutely amazing and the condo was clean and homey. The only downside to our stay was the inability to have guests on the property. We did not intend for them to have access to amenities, but wanted to watch a football game and eat dinner together. Tufan responded to questions quickly regarding this, but confirmed we could have no guests. Other than having to leave the property to spend time with friends, it was an amazing trip. We would reserve this property again to take advantage of the spectacular views!

Great Beach Getaway
The beach is second to none. The location and condo was great. The only real issue I had was getting a one day extension offered to me that was supposed to be a 25 % discounted rate when in all actuality I paid more by quite a bit for that night than any other. The email was misleading in what you would actually pay for that extra day and did not tell what the actual cost was. I didn’t dispute it since I gave the go ahead without asking what the actual cost was. Use my bad as your learning and don’t fall into it like I did. Other than that this place and experience was excellent.

Beach Destination
We would definitely recommend this condo on the beach in Destin and would come back! It was very tastefully decorated with beach themes. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai listening to the gulf! Netflix was a bonus on the one rainy day we experienced. We were able to spot some dolphins and stingrays from above! We were able to walk the beach daily! We took a walk to the The Back Porch which had awesome friend shrimp and Mahi Mahi in a lemon Kaper sauce. You can sit in covered outdoor seating and enjoy the gulf. We prefer outdoor seating due to Covid 19. Check out the cat tasters while your there and enjoy some Beachcat ale. We also recommend a walk out to the pier on Oskaloosa Island where the pelicans land at the end of the pier. We used instacart and had groceries delivered. 1608 Pelican was a much needed respite from the cold for us midwesterners.

About the host

Hosted by Tufan Beyatli Destina

Host profile image
We love beach vacations. Growing up in Cyprus, I used to think that no beach is better than the salty waters of Mediterranean and our sandy beaches are the best. Then I saw turquoise waters and sugary white beaches of Destin, Florida and fell in love at first sight. This is the reason we bought beach condos in Destin. We visit regularly as a family and rent them ourselves. We have a total of 7 units at Pelican Beach Resort. Waterscape, Majestic Sun at Seascape Resort and Luau, Bahia, Elation & G. Sandestin at Sandestin Resort are our other locations. They are all by the beach and are updated. You can expect same great service and same attention to detail for all our condos in the area.

Why they chose this property

Nicest beaches in United States, friendly fun people. Family oriented city and a property that is right at the beach with great ocean views. As soon as you step in, you will realize that you are at the ocean and the tides will take you in. You will not want to leave.
This 16th floor ocean view is one of the best, it is tranquil and very private.
Now we have TV's at bunk beds with Netflix

What makes this property unique
