We loved our time at Pelican Watch. The house had beautiful views and all the essentials we needed. We loved being on the bay side but still being super close to walk to the gulf side. It was quiet and peaceful for the duration of our stay. The beds were comfortable and the outdoor showers were great for rinsing off after a day at the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was great, location was amazing. My problem was the smell, I guess from the people staying there before us. It just smelled like a seafood boil restaurant. And the sheets did not look very clean on one of the beds. Loved that they had a gate on the patio that way my dog wouldn't run off. Had lots of accessories in the kitchen for cooking and storage. I loved the beach was available only a few steps away.

This property is perfect for pet parents. But it advertised as a 4 bedroom and it is only 3. the 4th bedroom is a reading nook with a crib in it. Luckily we are locals and my brother drove home every night. If it had been a true 4th bedroom we could have used our blow up mattress which was our extension. However there was no room for that. The internet company is terrible so no luck with watching tv at night in the rooms. Also no tv on rainy days. The thermostat is also on WiFi and shut off during our unloading of the vehicles so we couldn’t escape the heat. They do make it a very personal stay with the door code and the small touches. There is no space for groceries if you enjoy cooking. The guest bed (not master or children’s room) is only comfy in the center, the sides droop and make it very uncomfortable. Overall the owners were very responsive and easy to communicate with and even worked around our plans to try to improve the internet for future guests. It is a great house with an awesome host it just did not fit our family.
