Great location

2 blocks from the beach, easy walk or use the included golf cart. Cart was older and a bit rusty but worked. The house is an older single wide, a little small for us but for the price it was excellent.

It's a nice property in a nice beach community. The house was a bit small for all of us, but it's a nice place to visit. I wish the sun porch could be accessed without going outside.

August 2024 trip

My family and I just returned from our stay at the playful pelican. The host thought of everything you could want or need during the stay and the personal touches were sweet. It was nice to be able to use the golf cart, the pools, basketball courts ect. The best part was being so close to the beach.There were bikes and beach things available if needed. The house was very clean and decorated so cute. We will definitely be back.
