We absolutely loved our stay at Pelican Bay!! There was plenty of room for our family to all stay together. We loved the little cottages on the property. We loved the pool and access to the water! We would love to stay here again!
My family had such a good time here. The house was perfect and the yard and privacy was a bonus. We pretty much lived in the pool. I would definitely recommend!
We absolutely loved Pelican Bay and will be back! The relaxation you feel watching the sunset and sunrise in the screened in porch on the bay is unmatched. The pool area is beautiful and serene. We are already planning next years trip to Pelican Bay.
This home and it's property is absolutely gorgeous! There was more than enough room for all of us. Both of the cabins were perfect for our family with babies. As soon as we walked in the front door, we were all overwhelmed by the decorative pieces that made the house feel so relaxing!! We absolutely have NO complaints and are grateful you allowed us to make beautiful memories in your home.. We hopefully will return i. The future!
The property is very nice! It was my first experience using VRBO, so I was a little nervous, my dad and husband love to fish so it was perfect! Other than maybe a heated pool I have no complaints & that’s not something I expected to have! THANK YOU for a place to make great family memories
Pelican Bay, a great place to relax & make great memories.
Nine of us stayed at Pelican Bay and there was plenty of room for everyone, including our mini schnauzer. The kitchen was well-stocked and big enough for us to cook meals together. We truly enjoyed eating in the screened in patio. It’s also a great place to start the day with a cup of coffee.We knew the pool isn’t heated but due to the tremendous amount of leaves that kept blowing in it, we didn’t find it enjoyable to swim in.Other than that, everything was perfect!
10 of us stayed @ pelican bay! 6 adults 4 teenagers with plenty of room!
We loved the cottages-they provided plenty of room! The main kitchen is huge & beautiful! We spent most of our time in the boat house! We fished & watched the Bay-we saw a dolphin swim by! We spent lots of time around the pool which is wonderful but could have Ben alittle cleaner-Reed reality was very attentive to tho!
We all loved our vacation & would love to stay again!
The only con for us. Pool is not heated. Water was too low to fish off the dock and parking a pontoon boat was tricky. Besides that this was a perfect house for the 9 of us. Located just far enough from the spring breakers but not to far to run to the store or dinner. VERY clean and loved the beds. Very quiet area.
We absolutely love the house all the beautiful Spanish details. The kitchen is one of the best stocked kitchens I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying. Could use additional silverware. The grounds are amazing and we love the fairies and contributed to their garden. The pool was the perfect hangout for sun and relaxing. However the black flys were bad in Aug. Fishing off the pier was so much fun and playing cards and games in the screened porch. Wonderful property, hated to leave because it was so relaxing. Highly recommend.
Getting there is a little weird as stated by others. House being built next door that isn’t in pics but understand can’t update often. Just be ready to see workers around. Small cottage next to main house smelled musty and door didn’t lock. Main house was fantastic. Great place to gather for all 13 of us. Pool and yard were also fantastic. Kids never got out except to go to beach. We all had dinner one night in the club house down by the water. Also great for sunsets.. Just make sure you have code for Dianne’s Cottage before you get there. We didn’t get it and took over an hour to get into it after we got there. It was a very good time. Would recommend to anyone
Kitchen was the best stocked I’ve ever stayed at. Location great. Dianne’s cottage was a bit deceiving in that it was farther away than we anticipated.
Check in was a bit goofy. Could have just emailed me the code. Not all of the info for getting in the extra cottages was handy. Had to call for the code to get into Diane’s cottage. Had to hunt for the key to the other cottage. The pool was not clean. Bought shock stuff to put in it but did not help.
The real issue was bug bites, which we assumed were from the yard. By the second night I thought we were going to have to leave. I bought insect stuff to spray on the screens and put on pathway to water. Couldn’t go on the grass at all. My mother was still having issues 2 days after we left. I hope they were from the yard!
We had a great stay at this home. My family included 8 adults and 2 grandkids. We also had 3 friends join us for a few days. This rental is perfect for large groups.
Great property! We enjoyed the porches and the ability for everyone in the family to have a place to relax. Great location for fishing and spending time with a large crowd. We can’t wait to visit again.
We enjoyed this property. Huge areas to sit and converse in the house. Best part was the enclosed sitting area by the bay. Just wished the pool was heated and we had a little trouble finding the place, but overall we highly recommend this property.
Would possibly stay here again if the property was upgraded
This property is nice overall, but needs some TLC. I could make a pretty long list of things I expected to be nicer at this price, but I think the owner could do a walk through and figure it out on their own.
From check in to check out, this was a great experience. A beautiful, well cared for property with plenty of space for everyone.
The purpose of our trip was for us to get together as a family, and for my father to meet his grand dogs. If you’ve been looking, you’ve run into many places that had weight limits for your dogs. I’m so glad that this place was so welcoming.
My mother loved it so much that she already wants to plan another trip here, and she’s not easy to please. We would definitely come back.
