“Pelican Beach Resort excels as a beachfront getaway, especially for families looking to settle in near Destin's white sands and clear waters. The condos themselves provide plenty of space, and the on-site pools and dining options mean less need to venture out. From what I've gathered, the resort balances location and amenities quite well, making it a solid choice for those prioritizing ease and access.”
