Nice place

Great location. We have stayed in condos in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores many times but love the laid back pace with the homes of Fort Morgan. While the home is older, it was a perfect size for us. It could use updates to the interior but we didn’t mind that. We appreciated the large, gated deck. Harris Vacations, the property manager, was very responsive and quickly resolved a repair that we reported. The kitchen was well equipped with crockpot, electric griddle, drip and pod coffee makers, blender, toaster, and lots of cooking supplies including a large pot for shrimp boils.

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.

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!

Beach front

The location was spectacular! Just a few steps from the ocean. Wonderful views! Not crowded. Was the perfect getaway. The interior of the house is outdated. You can tell it is an older home, built in the 1970s with minimal updates. The owners have attempted to make it look more modern by painting paneling in the living area. The bedrooms still have the wood look paneling. The master bath had a blue shower/tub combo. It is a 3 bedroom house, but seemed a little small for 6 adults. However the size was good for 2 adults. The deck/patio area was a perfect place to sit and relax to watch sunset or have morning coffee. It is pet friendly and one of the main reasons we chose this house. We did have a small problem with check in code. It didn’t unlock the door, despite the many warnings of not allowing early checkin in. We arrived approximately an hour after check in time. But the emailed code still didn’t work so we had to call the property management service, which was frustrating but handled quickly. Overall, we enjoyed our mini vacation.

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!

We had such a lovely stay at Pelican's Paradise. The house is lovely and so very comfy. The house is just steps from the beautiful water. The beach is gorgeous! We loved being away from the business of town. The house is tucked into a lovely beach neighborhood and is right on the beach. Perfect! Renting was so easy. Communication and checkin were terrific. Hope we can come again!
