Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had another wonderful week at Pelican Point. The home is beautiful and very well maintained. Also spotless!

Beachfront Condo, gorgeous views, beach access & close to everything

8/10 Good

"The condo was clean. The view was beautiful. A couple details to note.... although the view in the photos show the beach basically in the backyard, one must walk to the street and 20-30 yards down to access it (there is a tall chain-linked fence blocking any possible entrance any closer. The water is crystal clear, however there are jellyfish everywhere. The beach seen is a small beach between jetties. Still beautiful,but not clear in the advertisement.The condo itself is clean,.. a lot of knick knacks everywhere, so beware if you have small children.Beds are comfortable. Balcony is pretty, but could use an umbrella or screen to help with the heat from afternoon sun.If you are staying longer than a weekend, definitely plan to buy more dishsoap,paper towels, and laundry detergent than is provided."
