Tufan was a wonderful host and his condo was perfect for my friends and I! All communication was very timely and Tufan was extremely responsive to our needs. The resort has lovely amenities (indoor heated pool, dry and wet saunas), that I was able to use.The view from the 4th floor of the gulf was refreshing to see each day and the local restaurants had delicious seafood.I would stay here again and highly recommend Tufan's lovely place!
Had a great stay. The place was clean, well maintained and exceeded our expectations. The view from the balcony was beautiful. I also recieved several emails before my stay from the host with information about the property and surrounding area which was very helpful. Would stay here again.
Property was exactly as described in the listing. Great communication and great location

Comfortable Clean Condo with Beautiful View
The condo was well decorated. It had all of the amenities that one should expect in a beach condo. Loved the large balcony that gave a panoramic view of the Gulf. I would recommend it to family and friends.
We loved staying right on the beach! After a long and awesome day of playing on the velvety soft, white sand beach (and swimming in the multiple swimming pools) we enjoyed every moment, relaxing in the chairs on the balcony! The condo was great! It had everything we needed and more! We will definitely stay there again!

Nice Vacation Condo
Very clean and cozy. Had extra beach chairs and umbrella stored in the condo which was so nice not to have to rent the expensive beach chairs that the Hotel offered. Easy access to the pools, plenty of room and nice size tvs. Balcony was great to enjoy coffee in the morning. The ocean view from the balcony was wonderful. The property manager was very prompt at getting back to us for any concerns we had.
Would enjoy staying here again.

Pelican Beach - Destin
The condo was very nice and they were very accommodating to our needs. It is very close to a lot of nice restaurants. One thing I would suggest when renting this unit is to check the room out first before you go to the store. The room did have several things we needed. There was no need to buy additional. Another thing is to check the closets because if you are not renting the beach chairs and umbrellas they did have some in the closet for your use. I would suggest renting the beach chairs and umbrella as you get a better spot on the beach and you can also rent for 1/2 day instead of all day of wanted.
Overall, we had a GREAT time!
The view of the ocean was nice from the living area.The balcony has an ocean view but you also have to look at the grill area. While we loved hearing the ocean from the balcony, we did not love hearing the pool filters running while sitting on the balcony. Fortunately, you cannot hear this when you were in the unit.The beds are very hard! Had to purchase padding to be comfortable. The air conditioner vent blows right on your face while you're in the master bedroom. Would have been nice if the bed was facing the other way for this reason and to see the ocean when you are in bed. Furniture needs attention. Did not smell fresh. There were plenty of towels for just the two of us but if there were four or more people this would not be the case. Kitchen was stocked nicely and appliances worked well. Overall we would not stay here again. But we have did appreciate that it did smell clean when we first arrived.
The property was wonderful! Extremely clean and close to the beach. The beds were firm, but we slept just fine after a long day at the beach. We would stay here again.
