Lovely beach stay for a small family reunion

Our small family reunion (7 people total) had a great time at Pelican Watch. We enjoyed being so close to the beach and enjoyed frequent walks out to the sand. We enjoyed how quiet the beach and neighborhood was. Construction on a nearby house was minimally problematic. There was some noise due to the ongoing construction but it didn’t impact our stay too much. The house was comfortable and was as advertised. The house included a high chair and pack n play for our toddler. Overall, this is a nice house with a good location.

Well Stocked Home

This St George Island beach house with pool was great for our friends and family. Had ample room and was well stocked with supplies unlike other rental homes. There was lots of pool and beach toys and it was a shorter walk out to the beach than I thought.

Great location & size

We loved the house for our family get-together over Thanksgiving. The vast indoor space, heated pool, and proximity to the beach was enjoyed by all nine of us. The house was outfitted with everything needed to make it a comfortable, functional home for a week, and the host was great to deal with. Hope to stay again.

Perfect even in evacuation!

What a beautiful island and home. Beds slept great! Everything inside home was open and airy. Didn’t let a mandatory evacuation stop us. Eddie, the homeowner, was absolutely amazing. Great help in getting us referred to the right people for refund. Prop Mgmt Co was great and attentive! Perfect beach home for seclusion and tranquility!

Great vacation at St George Island

Our week was wonderful and relaxing. The house was well equipped and the elevator was a godsend when moving in and out. Truly my only complaint would be to have check in earlier we have several toddlers and it made set up and dinner very late

The perfect beach house

This beach house was perfect for our family of 12 (our 5 young grandkids, our 3 kids & spouses plus my husband & I). The bedrooms accommodated us nicely, the common areas were comfy and roomy and the kitchen (with 2 refrigerators) was great for pulling meals together for our big group. It was super convenient being steps from the beautiful and uncrowded beach and having a pool to hang out at when we needed a break from the beach. The house has so many extras (beach wagon, beach towels, sand chairs, sand toys, pool floats, and even a kayak and SUP for guest use). The owner and property manager were both easy to reach and answered a lot of questions for us in advance. We loved the laid-back vibe of St. George Island and surrounding area and had so much fun taking an airboat ride. This was definitely one of our favorite beach vacations.

Ideal

Pelican watch was a great option for our extended family trip ages 28 to 87! The elevator was a lifesaver for grandma and Aunt and just getting settled with groceries and luggage. Enjoyed the pool and beach walking and especially the views. Thank you for having a well appointed kitchen and sharing your beautiful home with us.

Island Time at Pelican Watch

We had a wonderful stay at Pelican Watch. The indoor spaces and the outdoor spaces are just perfect! The views of the ocean from the house are amazing. We watched dolphins from the dining room table. The house is very clean and well kept and the furnishings were comfortable and very stylish. Plenty of room for a group.We came in February and it was chilly but I would love to visit again in the summer. The pool looks so amazing and the beach is sooo close! Perfect everything!

Relaxation

Our family of 8 had the most relaxing vacation at this beautiful home. We loved being able to just walk down to the beach everyday & there were plenty of chairs for all of us & even a wagon. The pool was nice in the evenings. We watched dolphins from the balcony every morning. The kitchen had everything we needed. We didn't leave the island the entire we week. We loved the local restaurants & shops. The home owner called before we checked in to make sure to answer any questions we may have. Will def. stay here again.

A family week at Pelican Watch

This property is a comfortable oasis where 11 members of our family, ages 4 to 72, shared rare, precious time together. Elevator for accessibility is essential for us. Access to the beach is direct and convenient. When they were not at the beach, the sun-soaked pool kept our brood engaged. Many TVs with varied streaming kept everyone entertained at night. The comfortable chairs and tables on the deck and its views of the Gulf are the images that replay in my head. The property managers resolved any minor issues quickly, and owner Eddie's advance and persistent contact were reassuring. Kitchen and dining facilities were easy. I actually prefer the east end of the island near the remote and quiet state park environment.

The Perfect Spring Break

12 people + 1 house on the beach - hundreds of college coeds = the perfect Spring Break. The beaches of SGI are beautiful, flat, ideal for miles of strolling, only passing an occasional fisherman or vacationing family. The amenities of Pelican Watch were outstanding to include the heated pool, BBQ grill, beach chairs, private walkway to the beach, foot wash and outdoor shower, and a fully furnished house with an unobstructed view. Plenty of space, stocked kitchen, elevator, two decks, picnic table plus ping pong and corn hole games in the shade under the house. Enjoyed the local restaurants and ice cream shop to boot. Owner Eddy was attentive and quick to respond. Easy check in/out. Wish Spring Break lasted a month!

Gorgeous newly updated beachfront home!

The house was absolutely gorgeous. I love all of the brand new LVP floors. Many windows, lots of light, close to beach, lots of traffic areas for several family members to spread out! Very clean, and the property manager is very helpful to work with us when we had a personal issue!

Gorgeous Home, Spectacular Beach, Perfect Island Get-Away

Our family of 10 (grandparents, two sets of adults, four teenagers) thoroughly enjoyed our week at Pelican Watch on St. George Island. The house was perfect for our needs, the beach was private and so gorgeous, and the ambience of St. George Island makes for a perfect setting for relaxing, family bonding, and fun in the sun. Eddie is a wonderful host. Thank you for sharing your lovely beach home.

One of the best rental homes we've ever stayed in!

The house was beautiful, clean, and solidly made. EVERYTHING was top notch and all details were covered - from the beds to the furnishings. There were plenty of bath towels as well as beach towels for use. It was one of the hottest weeks at the beach but we had no trouble keeping the house cool. All of the showers were great and the internet was reliable. We've had issues at other houses but no complaints at all with this one. Everything this absolutely wonderful. The owners went 'above and beyond' by providing shampoo and conditioner in the showers, extra propane for the grill, beach chairs, outdoor games, a kayak, and a ping pong table. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked and we enjoyed having two full refrigerators. We appreciated their attention to detail and willingness to share their beautiful home. Would definitely rent this house again!

The relaxing home away from home we needed

This house was gorgeous and so perfect for our family. The pool has a sun shelf that our toddler loved, but gets deep enough to keep older kids busy. There are plenty of chairs for adults to look on, as well as pool toys. There are lots of beach toys and chairs and even a wagon to transport stuff to and from the beach, which is just a short walk over the dunes. The house has everything g you need to feel at home. The kitchen is well stocked, the beds and pillows are so comfortable and Eddie was so nice to make sure we had everything we needed. We felt like we were at home away from home. The beach was quiet and beautiful and we loved finding shells. The whole area just feels so laid back and friendly and peaceful. We loved it.
