Balcony needs a deep cleaning

While the overall cleanliness of the condo was good, the balcony(door trim, door track, floor, table & chairs) were full of mold and mildew. I tried to clean with antibacterial wipes and that did not cut it. I knew it was mold/mildew. Needs a deep clean to get rid of this!

Loved the lazy river

We had a great time, very comfortable condo great location you get off the elevator and there is the condo in front of you, which was ideal for 5 senior women, the only thing that would make it better would be a new mattress for the bottom bunk bed.

Family vacation

Stay was overall very good! I wish it would have been a little closer to the beach, but the walk wasn’t awful! We rented a boat one day and it was super convenient having the bay and dock so close to the condo! But the lazy River was an overall HIT! We loved it and spent a lot of our time there, very neat area!

Perfect family vacation

We had an amazing time in this unit at Destin West. The property is great and we loved staying in Pelican. We had one very minor maintenance issue that was fixed more or less immediately when we texted about it. My whole family loved this trip and we would come back in a heartbeat!

Location, location, location!

This property is a gem! Kitchen had everything you need to eat “in” while there are plenty of eat “out” places within walking distance. The beach is also within walking distance and the host provided wagon was very helpful. There was also an umbrella and three chairs. (Make sure to bring your own beach towels) We spent quite a bit of time at the pool and lazy river which you will have a beautiful view of from this condo. Water temp was great and the area was kept very clean. The beds were adequate, I’m pretty picky on pillows but managed to find one that I liked. Plenty of towels. Having the washer and dryer was great as we could dry our beach towels each day if we wanted to. The bunk bed mattresses may need replacing soon as the springs could be felt. The place stays nice and cool, also there is a box fan that came in handy in the bunk room. The water pressure is also really good. Really happy we found pelican 505 and would definitely stay there again!

Porch needs to be pressure washed, coat hanger as coming out of the wall, pots and pans had the tephlone coming off, and TV was not completely stable on the stand. Otherwise the property was extremely comfortable, nicely decorated and clean. The location was perfectly situated next to the beach and bay with restaurants galore. Had a great time and will definitely be back 100%.
