About this stay
Perched on the 16th floor of Pelican Beach Resort, this premium beachfront condo sits directly on Destin’s famous white sands — with unobstructed, boundless ocean views in every direction. Sip your morning coffee watching dolphins play, then end the day with an Emerald Coast sunset from your private balcony.
The condo was fully remodeled in 2020 with further upgrades in 2022. Inside you’ll find beach-themed modern coastal décor, wood flooring in the master suite, and thoughtful touches throughout. Just outside your door: the resort’s new gulf-front zero-entry pool, an expansive sun deck, and a large outdoor spa.
Book direct with Destin Drift for our best rate and a personal touch — self check-in with your own keypad code, a fully stocked kitchen, and beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler waiting in the unit. Just bring your swimsuit.
