Good Condo in Great Location
The location can not be beat. Steps to the beach and beach service is included. This unit is located close to the end and near the walkway to the beach. It is not over the pool, which I appreciated. There was some issues with the cleaning, but Vacasa communicated with me regarding that. The layout of the bedroom is quite odd. It’s very small and the bed is pushed almost to the wall - can not walk between the wall and bed. The walkway between the foot of the bed and dresser is also very narrow. You either have to climb over to get in our climb up from foot of the bed. Only one small table on one side for phone. Kitchen well equipped and had everything we needed. Would for sure stay again at the Pelican Isle, but may look at a different unit with different layout. Great trip!

Break from Life
My friend's daughter just got married and we were exhausted from all of the activities and needed beach therapy. This was perfect! We just sat on the balcony and soaked up the "vibe".

Perfect stay!
This condo was very clean, perfect location and accommodated our family perfectly. The balcony view was beautiful. We saw dolphins every morning and evening. We will definitely stay here again. Okaloosa island is our new favorite Florida location.

46th Anniversary getaway
We've been to the Pelican Isle 2 other times and have always enjoyed our stay! When a new shower curtain was needed, management was very prompt at replacing it. A nice quiet beach with chairs and umbrella provided.
Thank you

This unit made us sick!
The unit had an overpowering smell of a cleaner which covered the mold odor. My wife begin to feel sick after 2 weeks but we didn't know what it was til she developed vertigo in the 4th week. She gets that from ingesting mold. We had to leave early. The whole bedroom was damp, towels never dried in the bathroom, clothes left out became damp. After we got home we realized just how bad it was. Everything, shoes, bins, clothes, even plastic bags smelled terrible! Even the felt clothes hangers smelled. Washing didn't help. Clothes had to be soaked in vinegar and washed in borax to kill mold, twice, but that didn't remove the smell. Some of our clothes are still being stored in the garage. If you can imagine trying to clean and disinfect everything you took with you. It took a couple of weeks. Everything that could be had to be cleaned in a bleach solution. She took medicine for 2 weeks to kill the mold in her system. We've stayed in 4 other condos at Pelican Isle and other buildings on Okaloosa Island and never had problems like this with any of them. Also this unit had the master bath made larger which made the bedroom smaller. So small there was no room for night stands, barely enough room at the end of the bed to get through, and had to turn sideways to get into the bed on the window side. The bed was also too high. My wife is 5'5 and could not sit on it and had to use a step to get into bed. I could add more to the list, but I've covered the worst problems.

Could have been better
Bedroom setup was bad, no door on the closet, toilet seat in master bath was very loose, all the lamps are old and rickety, couch was terrible to sit on, felt like I was sitting on the pullout bed, no nightstand on either side of bed
