We’ve stayed in this unit multiple times, and this visit did not disappoint. Unit was clean and well appointed. Great location and view. Easy access to the beach. We loved our time and have already booked our next stay. Highly recommend this unit and the Pelican Beach Resort.

Mike M., Vrbo

Such a nice place! Loved the remodeled unit, and loved the resort. The view from the balcony was amazing, and we loved being able to see the ocean and beach from the living room and kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked and the unit was very clean. We would definitely stay here again.

Taylor V., Vrbo

Amazing view and it had everything we needed for our comfortable stay on the property. We were even able to see some dolphins from our balcony.
