Offering breathtaking views of the Gulf of Mexico from its private 15th-floor balcony, this one-bedroom, two-bathroom condo at Pelican Beach Resort exemplifies elegance and luxury with fine travertine and professional-level European design throughout. Similar in quality to a penthouse, this Gulf-front condo features a larger-than-normal kitchen, top-of-the-line appliances and cookware to assist you in preparing homemade meals & a lovely dining table for four in addition to the adjacent bar stools. Make yourself at home in the living room, offering a sofa, coordinating furnishings, a TV & a CD stereo system, when you're not out on the beach or enjoying the property's swimming pools, hot tub & fitness centers. At night, you'll have your choice of a beautifully decorated primary bedroom with a king-size bed and custom twin bunks built into the hallway. The fully upgraded bathrooms feature travertine, custom tile work, upgraded lighting & granite countertops.

Pelican Beach Resort is a Gulf-front property on the sparkling shores of Destin, an ideal escape for those looking to swim, surf, sunbathe, take long walks along the beach & test their skills in a wide variety of water sports. You'll also be right in the midst of Destin's most popular attractions, with Big Kahuna's Water & Adventure Park practically across the road, The Track's go-karts and miniature golf course less than a mile east & the Destin Harbor Boardwalk just over two miles west. Tee off on the Seminole Course or the Choctaw Course at Indian Bayou Golf & Country Club (two miles northeast), find an assortment of eateries and grocery stores within a few minutes' drive (including Target and Winn-Dixie half a mile northwest) & enjoy the natural splendor of Henderson Beach State Park (two miles east).

Great View!

We loved this condo. The pictures are accurate and the location is exceptional. The sofa is not overly comfortable and the kitchen is not stocked as well as it could be (no knives) but overall, we would definitely stay here again.

Great, but needs a new bed

The place was amazing when I came to the views and location. The only complaint we had was the bed. It left us sore each morning.

Disappointed photos are deceiving!!

Everything about this room is outdated, most uncomfortable bed. Lighting is extremely dim. Very disappointed after looking forward to a Destin trip for months. Will never stay at the Pelican Resort again.

Not satisfied

The view was beautiful!!! We have been staying at Pelican Beach for 9 years. This is the first time we were disappointed. Garage disposal was broken and water poured out all over the floor because there was a bucket underneath it and didn't empty it. Had to call 3 times to get it fixed. Bedroom tv remote didn't work. Bathtub didn't have a stopper. Do not think we will stay in this room again.

Beach Visit

The building and check-in seemed very old and institutionalized. My door code didn't work so I was left sweating in the hallway until an agent could get me in. The unit was beautiful, very fancy and comfortable with an awesome balcony overlooking the gulf...what a lovely view! I would stay here again, but only because of the comfort of the unit. Be forewarned...you will not find any basic kitchen amenities such as salt & pepper, olive oil, coffee, sugar, creamer-nothing, which I was not expecting. There did seem to be decent kitchen pans and appliances though.

Great for families.

The resort itself was very family friendly. We enjoyed both pools. The room is clean, pretty, and well put together. The bed is very uncomfortable and incredibly low to the ground my husband and I are in our twenties and were sore by the second day from the pillows and mattress. Entertainment center in living room sets the tv on the ground which is not ideal. Outdoor balcony chairs are pretty flimsy I was worried they might break. Also a keurig and a smart tv in the bedroom would be a nice touch to add. That being said we would book here again if visiting the area everything was as advertised and very clean. A/C did not have any odor or issues either which was nice. Shower was quick to heat and water pressure is phenomenal.

Balcony closed

I was very frustrated to find out weeks before my vacation that the property is under mayor construction. I reached out right when I found out but couldn’t get a response and tried in multiple ways to get a hold of them. Pool was closed and beach access was also closed. The biggest bummer was my balcony with the ocean view. The whole reason I booked the room and we couldn’t even use it. The only good thing was the location and the really nice people who were also staying there.

Broken door!!

Overall stay was good. There was an issue with the key pad on the door and it took an hour and a half to get the issue resolved. We were offered 2 $25.00 meal vouchers for the inconvenience but we never received them??? This get away was for our 30th year anniversary.

Fall Vacation

We had been in another unit at Pelican Beach Resort and wanted to extend our trip one more day. Our unit was booked so we picked out this beautiful condo to stay in the same resort with a beautiful balcony view. We were so looking forward to this stay but had to go home early. We let the service who runs the rentals for this condo know and they were very prompt and pleasant in getting back with us. We wanted to save the cleaners a trip and let them know the unit wouldn't be occupied. I'm sure it was amazing and wish we had been able to see and use it.

Wonderful week in Destin

Very nice property, beautiful and well cared for. Furniture in living room not real comfortable for lounging, (we’re 73) but the views are wonderful and it’s Destin after all. Thoroughly enjoyable!

Second time staying unit 1502 pelican beach resort

This is a beautifully decorated Italian theme condo that my wife and I absolutely love!! We just stayed there for our 24th anniversary! It's obvious the owners put a ton of money into upgrades, trim, tile, etc ...Absolutely beautiful!! We will come back next year for sure, no other condo will ever compare!!

Perfect for the occasion

My wife and I stayed for 1 night. The condo was clean and comfortable. Didn’t cook or take advantage of any of the amenities, so can’t really critique those areas. The condo was as advertised and I would recommend it for a vacation rental.
