About this property

Pelican Perch - Private Pool, Direct Private Beach Access & Golf Cart Avail!!

Welcome to Pelican Perch!

4 bedroom, 2.5 bath luxurious beach house only 1/2 mile (2 minute drive or 10 minute walk) to the emerald waters and sugary white sands, with no roads to cross!! Located along Scenic 98 in the Miramar Beach community of Destin. Gulf Pines is a quiet hidden gem, tucked away from the crowds and offers private beach access and parking for Gulf Pines homeowners only, and their guest.

Conveniently located to a variety of family friendly dining, shopping and entertainment. The Silver Sands Premium Outlet is 1 mile and you’re minutes away from Destin Commons, Big Kahuna Water Park, The Village of Baytowne Wharf, Harbor Walk Village and much more. So many options, but so little time!

Start the mornings off by sipping coffee on the wrap around front porch while enjoying the quiet community of Gulf Pines. Tastefully decorated throughout, to include a fully equipped kitchen with premium appliances, gas stove, and granite counter tops. Connecting the living room, dining room (seats 8), and kitchen bar (seats 3), you will have no shortage of space, for a nice meal and good conversation. The living room comfortably seats 8 and has a large 70" flat screen TV viewable from both the living room and kitchen/bar. If you must do laundry while you are here, the large laundry room with a front load washer and dryer will make the job easier.

When you're not at the beach, you'll enjoy the spacious backyard, private pool 15x30 (heating option available) with outdoor dining, and pool loungers. We have both gas and a charcoal grill for convenience and preference. Pelican Perch offers all the comforts of home, but all the vacation amenities one would expect.

We have been vacationing in the Destin area for many years and this home was one of our favorites. It was very clean, comfortable and spacious. The private pool was great as well. We look forward to staying at Pelican Perch again!

Beautiful home
We came to Destin for our grandson’s beach wedding. The home was clean and just perfect for our family of nine adults and two children. The swimming pool was awesome and the golf cart was perfect for trips to the beach. We all really enjoyed our stay and would love to return again in the future!

Beautiful home
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. Everything was clean and the property manager was quick to answer any questions. Close to the beach. Gulf cart is a must, making trips to the beach easy. Pool was very nice and house has a nice sized yard. Definitely would stay here again. Beach area was nice and not too busy. We were able to put up our canopy on the beach to allow for shade. Neighborhood is very nice and quiet.

Great vacation spot
We really enjoyed our stay at this home! It’s a great location just outside of Destin , so it’s a little more quiet. The home was very clean with amazing finishes, the kitchen was stocked well with all the things you would need, and we really enjoyed the outside spaces and the front porch!!! The pool area has adequate seating and it was nice to have some yard space for yard games. The home is somewhat of a walk to the beach (carrying all the beach essentials) so it was nice to have the golf cart as an option to get there much easier. Also we loved that we didn’t have to worry about parking it at the beach , there was always parking available. The owners and management of these property are great , for the most part prior to our trip they were great at getting back to us with our questions about the property, and during our stay they were very prompt with any communication we had with them! We would definitely recommend this property to others!!! Destin is an amazing vacation spot!

Perfect Perch
We loved this property and especially enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and friendly residents. Easy access to private beach and also enjoyed pool at house. Shopped and dined in Destin in spite of the crowds and traffic. Great choices also near the property. We also enjoyed massages at The Hilton. Great day snapper fishing with Backcoumtry Outfitters limiting out with our guide Jeremy! Grandsons enjoyed parasailing and the go carts and arcade/amusement park in Destin. Kiley was very helpful and prompt with questions I had prior to arrival. It was a wonderful week making memories at this beautiful home!

Meet all expectations.
We really enjoyed this property!! From the very beginning the owners had great communication. And they checked on us multiple times during our stay. They informed us of places to go for certain things. The house was awesome overall and the pool came in clutch when we didn't want to go to the beach. The private access to the beach was also worth it there was always spots available to set up and enjoy it without all the crowds.

Amazing Vacation House
Pelican Perch was better than expected. First, the pictures of the property are beautiful; but in person, the house is stunning. My whole family enjoyed staying there. It was an amazing house for all ages. The golf cart option is a must. It makes trips down to the beach very easy and convenient. Plus, it’s a nice way to see the community. The homeowners were wonderful throughout the entire process. Easy to contact and very hospitable. We will definitely stay at Pelican Perch again!

Would 100% recommend Pelican Perch
Spring break 2023 was a delightful week for our family. When we arrived, we found Pelican Perch was just as described in the listing. It is a lovely house in an adorable neighborhood. The golf cart and private beach access made our many trips to the beach a breeze. The heated pool was so nice especially a few days when the air temperature was a bit cool for staying at the beach all day. The kitchen has top of the line appliances and we were able to cook meals with ease. We had abundant space to spread out with our family of 5. The location was perfect for us as we enjoy spending time at the beach but you are also so very close to an abundance of shopping, food, and entertainment. Our #1 priority when traveling is finding a place that is truly cleaned properly. Pelican Perch met our high expectations of cleanliness. If we ever travel to Miramar Beach FL again we will be staying at the Pelican Perch.

Great location and lovely house
I love the feeling when you open the door and you know you made the right choice to stay at this house. Great layout and we all loved the private pool. You are close to the Whataburger which is plus and the proximity to the beach was great. The golf cart is a must and the access to the private beach was well worth the cost!

Absolutely Phenomenal!!!
We have vacationed in this area of the panhandle for well over twelve years. Hands down, this is the best place we have ever stayed! The neighborhood is a hidden gem. We have stayed on/near ‘private’ beaches before (where all the hundreds of homes and condos have access), but now we are spoiled. This neighborhood has its own actual private access, and they take it seriously. The beach was nearly empty, truly private. Don’t let the fact that this house is not directly on the beach stop you from staying here! The golf cart makes it a quick trip (literally 2 minutes) with golf cart parking right at the access gate, and it makes hauling beach toys and bags so easy! This spoiled us, too. So fun and convenient! This home is missing nothing! It is truly exceptional, and the cleanest place we have ever stayed! The hosts were incredibly friendly and have paid so much attention to detail in their home. Quality is superb! The beds and linens are comfy. The kitchen is stocked. Plenty of seating in the living area with large TVs throughout. Love the open concept, you don’t miss a thing! That pool - WOW! This isn’t just any private pool. It is perfect! The deep end appeared to be 5 feet, which was perfect for swimming, but put my mind at ease with our kids. It was big with plenty of seating to lay, sit, rock, or picnic! The pool is almost always in the sunshine (absolutely perfect), but the decking on the side of the house is shaded, which means there is really a spot for everyone whether someone wants to sit in the shade and enjoy the view or layout and bask in the abundant sunshine! The stereos back there were so handy, too. Tons of yard space that we have never had while staying in Florida before. They have thought of everything!!! We were so incredibly blessed to stay here, and we will for sure be back in the future!!! I cannot wait!

Great Summer Stay
We stayed here for a week with our mostly grown kids and had a blast. The location is nice but not on the beach. That was fine with us as we used the golf cart to get back and forth as necessary. The rooms were all nice, kitchen could have used some larger pots and pans to feed a larger family but was otherwise nicely stocked. The pool was very refreshing after a day at the beach or out on the water. Overall we would definitely stay again if coming back to the Destin area.

Destin family vacay 2022
The property was as advertised online-new, clean and beautifully decorated. The backyard pool area was so spacious and a HUGE hit with the family especially after a long day at the beach. Speaking of the beach, it was so nice having a gated entrance which lead to an uncrowded area to set up our tent and chairs unlike other parts of Miramar Beach. The only issue: there were no TV remotes to get NETFLIX etc.. However, the direct TV worked great and we were so busy doing other activities that it turned out not to be that big of a deal. The owner was extremely helpful with any questions, concerns or small fixes that needed to be addressed. The Gulf Pines neighborhood was safe, quiet and clean. I would definitely recommend Pelican Perch for a vacation in the Miramar Beach area.

Absolute perfect experience.
We stayed for a week in July with 4 other families. The house could not have been more perfect. Every detail has been thought out and taken care of. The owners were in contact at all times. The beach is about a half mile away so if you have children I would advise getting the golf cart as we did. Everything was new and clean. The pool is a great size and I love the location of the house. I will definitely be trying to book this house again. Thank you for our stay!
