Wonderful vacation

My family and I had a wonderful time at Pelican Paradise. The location is amazing. Can't get closer to the ocean! House was charming and has a huge deck. The interior is dated, but overall a nice trip.

Amazing place.

We absolutely loved staying at this property. The location is beautiful, the house is right on the water and is very comfortable! We even had a issue with our heater and not only did they have someone out to check but he actually replaced the whole heater within hours! Can’t say enough good things, we will for sure be coming back.

Great location. You pull up onto sand with a view of the beach even from your car. We loved the patio with the locked gate so dogs could be free to roam on the deck while we watched the ways. Away from touristy area. So nice!

Beautiful Week on the Beach

The location is amazing! It is just steps away from the ocean and perfect for our family beach vacation. Quiet neighborhood, spaced out homes, and pet friendly beach made for an excellent getaway. The home was very clean and everything was in working order. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a week worth of meals and there were 2 local stores/shops very close and we were only an easy 20 minute drive away from larger/big-box stores. We truly enjoyed it and would stay again.

Amazing location, truly ON the beach! House is older but very clean and comfy. We enjoyed everything even though the main AC was acting up. Before we got there, management placed nice portable AC units in each room to help take stress off the main unit. It was a wonderful vacation!

The house is aged but considering the location it is not surprising. It was what I expected and worked well for us. Very clean.
