Great place newly remodeled super clean and great view of gulf and beaches

Second year staying at hidden Dune 1605.

We were so happy to see the new furniture in the condo. In the main bedroom, there is nice new dresser, end table and headboard. The dining room has a new table and chairs, and there is a very nice heavy coffee table.

This year we had no issues there and no reason to call a manager or anybody else.

It is so wonderful to wake up and look out your window and be right on the sandy beach and beautiful ocean. It takes literally three minutes to walk from your door onto the beach. We were lucky enough to see a stingray and a few dolphins swimming from the balcony.The pool and hot tub were always available and not at all crowded. At the end of our stay, the condominium was getting new lounge-chair, chairs, and regular chairs for by the pool and on the patio.
We took a car ride and ate in Panama Beach city. It was fun to walk on the pier and see the people fishing.
It was important to us to be a bit away from the main street therefore it was very quiet all the time. The grounds are beautiful and it was nice to walk around there also.
It would be nice to have bigger TVs. It would also be nice to have a change of linen for the beds since we were there a month.

Good. Door handle going to the balcony needs to be was very loose the second we opened it. There was toothpaste on the shower curtain that needed to be washed. Needs to be more toilet paper, trash bags, dish soap, laundry pods, dish washer pods provider for the price we pay. Beach chairs and a cooler would be nice to keep there for the guests who fly and cannot travel with bigger items. Thank you.

My husband and I recently spent 5 nights in this beautiful, recently updated and well equipped condo in the Gulfside building in the Hidden Dunes complex. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already planning a return trip to this unit. Everything was very clean, the appliances are seemingly new, and the pots and pans were new and of good quality. I was especially pleased to find a knife set with knives that were actually sharp. I usually bring my own because I have found knives in other rentals to be very dull. The dishware and silverware are plentiful and of nice quality. Both bathrooms are spacious and well appointed with new towels. The primary bedroom is of a gracious size with large windows and king bed was very comfortable. The living and dining spaces were also well appointed and decorated. The views though are what really make this unit special with expansive views from the spacious terrace. Also, from the entrance side of the building you have great views towards Destin and out across the bay. Hidden Dunes is also an excellent place to stay for any avid Tennis or Pickle Ball players with the Tennis/PB Center offering clinics to improve one's game or the opportunity to sign up to play with other members or visitors, all for a reasonable charge. Additionally, Hidden Dunes is located close to many area attractions, shopping at Silver Sands Outlets and the Grand Boulevard center, several grocery stores and many restaurants. We will definitely be back!

We spent a month in this condo. It was almost perfect. The view is the best thing. You wake up to seeing and hearing the surf. The beach and white sand is beautiful.
The building and grounds are very well maintained.
The condo was spotless. The beds were very comfortable.
the cons: In the Kitchen there were 2 old dishcloths for our use, one oven mitt. We ended up buying another oven mitt and flat bakeware to use. we also bought a pitcher at the dollar store.
The shower in the main BR needs to be caulked again at the bottom, mold starting to grow. Also the water pressure was awful.
We had some trouble with the management in the beginning. The WIFI was often down and it took many texts and calls to fix it. It was irritating.
We also had a plugged shower drain that took a few days to fix.
Altogether The condo and location are great, right off the main street, but far enough that it was very quiet. There is a lot to see and do in the area. Great restaurants and shopping.

My family of five stayed in this two bedroom apartment for five nights and had a great time. It’s very clean, beautifully decorado, and a perfect size and a beautiful balcony with great views overlooking the pool and ocean. We loved that there was a washer and dryer in the unit, and one thing I would have loved to know before, is there was a pack and play there as well as sand toys, boogie boards, beach chairs, and umbrellas to be able to be used, which was an amazing bonus! I would’ve loved to know this because we packed our stuff.

My swimsuit was stolen outside our room on the railing and they left the cover up, I contacted the host he reply with a rude text then I went to the front desk and they said they couldn’t help me because they dnt have cameras on that side,do not book room 312 nor any others,the elevators we’re slow and the lights in front of the elevator had bugs and spiderwebs on them which shows they dnt clean,it’s not worth the price. I have videos as well.

Great vacation.

Pelican 312 was very much as advertised. It was reasonably well appointed and the location was very convenient. My only suggestion would be for the owners to replace the shower heads in both bathrooms. For just a few dollars they could significantly improve the experience of their guests.

This is an amazing property - I highly recommend booking it! The check-in experience worked exactly as promised, was completely hassle free, and the property was even better than expected. Hands down, one of the best rental experiences ever.

I had a great stay at Pelican can Beach Resort for the month of February! It was a great place to escape and relax. The three heated pools and hot tubs were enjoyed by all . My unit 312 was exactly as described in website.
The location was really quite convenient for all shopping needs. The breath taking views of the gulf were really serene and beautiful. I look forward to rebooking for next year! Thanks for the memories!

Condo was nice and clean when we arrived. Just a few suggestions....curtains are needed in the main area for the person who sleeps on the sofa as well as help with the heat. Electrical outlets need to be replaced.....everything you plug in falls out.
Overall loved the condo with gulf view and will definitely stay again. The Aegean is our favorite place to stay.

Only complaint is could not access elevator with luggage cart , had to go down 6 stairs to get to elevator floor. A few cosmetic issues but nothing to take away from the esthetics of the condo. Very clean and quiet place. Beautiful beach

Manager's Response

The air conditioning did not work like it should. It was hot upstairs, so hot that you couldn’t sleep. There was a flood from air conditioning unit the very first day after we arrived at 4 notified property manager and no one came until next day. There was so much water in the floor that we used all the towels provided and it still ran out into the dinning area which made the floor very slippery and dangerous. Management said they would bring us new towels. They did not. Fridge did not cool our stuff until the 3rd day there.The amenities said there was a sofa bed. And there was not. I personally feel that if you are going to pay that amount of money everything should be tip top shape. I will not rent this unit again.

Manager's Response

The location was fantastic. The view was fantastic as well and I had a great stay.

We had a great experience as always. Love the room and the view. We have stayed here before and happy we got to use this condo again. Great overall experience.

Me and my daughters friends had a wonderful time at the house. There was plenty of room for me (alone ) and for the 5 of them. We had gust of wind that came and took the door from my hands and it banged against the outside wall, cracking the door and they seemed to be understanding of this although I never heard from them. I do think that the door should swing inside ad out side doors are suppose to.

I will start off by saying that the property was clean, in close proximity to the beach and most beds were comfortable. The disappointment came from the general condition of the furniture, appliances and cookware. The BBQ was inoperable and extremely dirty. The cookware was old and scratched. The oven took forever to heat (over 1hr to 350F). The dryer took 2 cycles to dry clothes. Diningroom chairs were wobbly and the couch was stained. General condition is a vacation rental past it's prime and attention to creature comforts are neglected.

This house is great for a big family there were 14 of us (8 adults, 6 kids) plenty of room for all of us. Bedrooms are spacious. Master bedroom is absolutely perfect. •1st floor 2 rooms of bunkbeds & laundry room •2nd floor kitchen-king bedroom (extremely hot, we couldn’t ever get it to cool down), •3rd bedroom master & other king room
•Pros
Great location, spacious rooms, good price, great communication with the host, pool was right across the street, beach was extremely close I loved that we could just walk & rent chairs/umbrella (so much easier than carrying all that stuff down) plus you’ll have a spot reserved for your whole group.
There is a crockpot& Keurig/coffeepot.
•Cons
Kitchen is on 2nd floor, the propane tank was empty when we arrived and the grill was very nasty covered the whole bottom of it in grease, the backyard needs works really bad it had trash & dirty clothes from the group before us &it was not enclosed like what we thought and not very big. We also had to go buy trash bags, paper towels,detergent, soap, kitchen towels (you cannot use white towels to clean up any spills or messes)& refill of the propane tank because there it was empty or not enough to last us 7 days there. The host said I should receive a refund for propane tank but still haven’t. Bad smell from the kitchen.
Again it was a great house but we had to spend a lot of extra things which should have already been there.

Overall the house was fine. The space was adequate. The location was great. However, there are several things about the house that really need some attention. 1. The owner leaves a vehicle in the driveway. This took away from the driveway space. The promotional photos do not show this vehicle. 2. The rugs/carpets in the house are old, worn out, and dirty. They should be replaced. 3. The sink in the 2nd floor bathroom does not drain well. 4. The commode in the 2nd floor bathroom does not always flush. 5. The patio area outside the 1st floor bedroom is a wild mess. It needs to be cut, cleaned, and overall improved. 6. The bedroom on the 1st floor with bunk beds has a strange smell. 7. The refrigerator was not cool when we arrived. It is missing a drawer. One of the racks in the door continued to fall out. 8. The dining area needs some type of window covering for the afternoon sun. 9. One of the outlets in the dining area did not work. 10. One of the outside chairs on the 2nd floor fell through when I sat in it. 11. Overall the inside walls need to be repainted and the floors need to be thoroughly cleaned/restained

Nice location, very small heavily patrolled beach section, nice walking distance to nice restaurants. We would stay again.

We had a fantastic family gathering. Plenty of room and bathroom supplies for everyone. We would rent this house again.

Had so much fun. Wish beach area was bigger. Incredibly small area. Garbage disposal has a horrible smell but they came and flush it out the second day.

My family had an enjoyable time at this location. I t was very close to the beach and the pool. It was very spacious and accommodating to our family's needs.

My family and I had a great vacation. The condo was very clean. It's not a deal breaker, but it would be nice if there was a dresser in the extra bedroom to put your clothes. That's not a complaint, just a suggestion.

Super easy check in, codes were emailed in advance. The unit was very clean, well maintained, and beautifully decorated. Everything needed for a week or longer at the beach was provided. Beach access is convenient and the view from the balcony was specgtacular. This is not an ocean front unit, but you can see the gulf and the bay...if only the other high rises did not obscure part of the view. Communication with the property manager was quick and easy when asking about the type of coffee maker and if we could rent the unti an extra day when we were not quite ready to leave.
