The location is great, but the condo itself needs refurbishing. The ceiling plaster is coming off in several locations. The toilet needs a new flapper and is constantly running. The other toilet seat is seriously loose. The shag carpet is old and sticky. Other than that it was a magnificent view.
Beautiful 18th floor condo right on the beach with beach decor throughout. Very clean and comforting. The bunkbed was perft for my girls. Can't wait to come back!
Les points faibles : Communication et exactitude de lâannonce
Terrible bed
We stayed here for our wedding anniversary. Weâve stayed at PBR the last 4 years and have loved it.
However, this condo was outdated, the bed was extremely uncomfortable and worn, the toilet in the hall bath was wobbly, the outlets are worn out and some donât work etc⊠I wouldnât stay here again.
If you want to sleep well on your vacation, donât book this one.
We love it in Destin and love having a rental on the beach. The 2 pools were a plus. The place was very clean. The only things I will point out is that the king size mattress is well worn with a huge dip in it where you sleep. So that was uncomfortable. The towels that were provided for showering were like sandpaper. Other than that all was good. Just needs a little updating.
This was our second time at Pelican Beach. We love how easy the resort is to navigate and we feel safe (always have so it has nothing to do with security). Security thinks they are at a super max prison and need to calm down.
The unit could use a refresh but we didnât really mind. The kids loved the pools and beach. We loved the location and convenience of the resort. Weâd stay again. Itâs nice to have 2 bathrooms in a small unit so thatâs definitely a bonus! Thanks for sharing with us.
Cosmetically needs updated, colors are too dark...needs more bright colors, new paint. Major appliances were rusty. Inside of oven was dirty...when used, there was a burning smell coming from it. Coffee makers works, but broken pieces found in basket. Bed/pillows hard, uncomfortable. Need extra blankets temps were cold and it was cold at night.
Check in was 4pm...houskeeping was still in the room cleaning at 4pm. No one called to inform me. I did not get into the room until 4:33pm. I called inquiring, no explanation, just apology. I requested early check in 3 times via website and calling. All I got instead was LATE check-in. I was not happy since my flight landed at 10:30am and had to wait ALL DAY.
Electrical outlets need to be redone...plugs are loosely held in place, this is a fire hazard. Table lamp and chandelier bulbs in dining area needed replaced...apparently were not checked or reported to anyone for my stay. Carpeting is dirty, needs replaced.
The view from balcony was awesome. This was my only highlight of the rental.
If all the above gets remedied, then I would stay there again.
Better communication with checking in, and given the courtesy to allow early check in should be considered. The LATE check in was indeed the worst part of my stay.
This would be an awesome place to stay, but very disappointing overall for me.
Great view and booking was simple and easy. Master bed is extremely uncomfortable and carpet in bedroom is kinda dirty and sticky. Rest of the unit was nice and clean.
The resort needs to do better on general maintenance.
The room/maid cleaning was great.
However on the resort side of things, they really, really need to steam clean the carpets. They turned out feet black/brown. Also the light bulbs in the fridge and under the stove need to be replaced. And...if you plan on using the oven make sure that you bring oven mitts and/or hot pads as this unit has none in it.
The water also went out during our stay. The whole building woke up to no water, due to a main break. I was surprised that the resort didn't offer ANY drinking/bottled water for it's guests. The water was out/off for around 12 hrs.
First, I'd like to say, the property itself was nice. But, there is ongoing construction and we listened to loud jackhammers on the exterior of the building from 8-5 every day. We also weren't able to access the balcony. The only warning we had about this construction mess was in the small print at the bottom of the confirmation after we had already paid. We asked to be moved, but, were refused because they claimed that they had notified us. We were here to work remotely, which was nearly impossible. If you book here ask lots of questions.
There is one bed where the sheets were never cleaned and had sand inside the sheets. I moved to the bunk bed and found the bunk bed not even made. Itâs like they hadnât cleaned the beds at all. Took an effort but called Vacasa and they said they would take care of it. Not until the next day did they bring new sheets and just brought to room and WE had to make the beds. Then find out that they brought twin sized sheets for the king bed! Also, the balcony is not assesible on ANY ROOMS, not just some as they advertised. But it is a good location and close to a beautiful beach. The view from the room eventually will be gorgeous when the balcony is assessable. Destin is a great place to visit, I just would not stay in this building again.
A nice place to enjoy the fantastic views of Destin. We loved being on one of the upper floors to enjoy the ocean view. The condo was clean, typical layout. A great trip overall.
