"Great time on Okaloosa Island
Always a great stay at Pelican Isle condos. Brooks and Shorey takes great care of us, year after year!"

"A Perfect Beach Stay
My husband and I rented Pelican Isle 406 to celebrate our anniversary. It was pretty, comfortable, and had a perfect view of the ocean! Loved our balcony! We were very pleased overall. We also love the condo’s location on the Okaloosa beach. It’s farther from the pier (almost to the closed military section), and so always seems less crowded than other parts of the beach.!
If you’re planning to do a lot of cooking, make sure you bring any special kitchen items you need from home, as the kitchen wasn’t super stocked. It worked just fine for us, though, as we ate most of our meals at our favorite seafood places! Yum!"

"Best vacation ever
The condo is amazing. Wonderful views and access to beach. Will definitely return here in the future! Easy check in/ out. Location has everything you need. Couldn’t ask for more!"

"Our Oct vacation
Beautiful decor, clean, but the bed was terrible, the pillows were way to flat, and with the cold temps there were not
Enough covers/ blankets "

"Family Fall Vacay
Unit was clean and perfect for our family of four. Loved the bunk beds with individual tvs for our small kids. Great view! "

"We always have a good time when we stay there.
It’s very clean nice place. Never having problems. What can I say we love it. I stayed at a different condo down the beach one week this year. I was very unsatisfied. I will never stay anywhere sells. "

"Relaxing Stay
We decided to get away from the crowds found in Sandestin where we usually stay, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Just what we wanted, with town just minutes away for groceries & restaurants. "

"We had a nice time but unit could have been cleaner
We enjoyed the view and the proximity to the beach. Complimentary beach chairs and umbrella were an awesome addition. Unit was not as clean as I would have hoped. Dishes were dirty. As far as the grounds were concerned, the pool, pool chairs, green space, and grilling area left much to be desired. Overall, we had a nice stay but might look for a location with better outdoor amenities next time. "

"Beautiful Beach Paradise
Our experience was very nice, every day waking up to the sound of the waves and the turquoise water was perfect. The condo was nice and had everything we needed and more. The washer and dryer came in handy and the bathrooms were updated and clean. "

"405 Pelican Isle
I don’t like that the outlets are controlled by light switches. We were unaware until last day which was too late.
The kitchen lacks a few things number one is a pizza cutter. Bowls with lids for cooking. "

We had a great time while at Pelican Isle. We have stayed in other Brooks and Shorey properties and enjoyed them. We had never stayed in this condo unit and were a little hesitant but it was a wonderful experience. "

"review of PI 406
A really well decorated condo and clean. There were some essential items missing from kitchen, scissors, spatulas and sufficient silverware."
Mar 21, 2021 - , Memphis, TN
"Need an update
It is a one bedroom condo and it is small. the bathrooms are good and have a lot of space.THe bedroom is very small. The one closet was full of stuff and very little room for clothes. We had to leave our shoes on the floor in the bedroom. The mattress is very hard and so are the pillows.We had to use one of the bunk beds to put empty suitcases on. The kitchen could us some fry pans and new place mats for the table. Be careful when using the table because the glass top is not secured to table. I think the bedroom closet need to be cleaned out to make room for clothes."

"Nice condo with a great view
Nice condo with ah great view. This is near the end of the row of condos on the island so it is very quiet and the beach is not crowded."

"Fall Break Getaway
This was our first trip to the Island and we loved every minute of it. Overall the condo was great. We have never had this type of vacation before so spending this kind of money wasn’t easy. Except...we counted on the excursion that was offered as a freebie but it was a complete mess. The company that they use for the snorkeling dolphin cruise was completely unprofessional and after the run around all week they canceled our trip on our last day. But as long as your not counting on that as a reason you choose the condo it’ll be fine! The condo was mostly perfect. Lots of grit on counters and in cabinets but felt like sand. A few dirty dishes. Otherwise would I rent again? Yes, but plan things differently."

Had a great week. Weather was perfect. Condo was very nice and comfortable "

"Lovely unit and great complex
We've been coming to Ft. Walton/Destin area over 30 years and this complex is a favorite. Plenty of parking, speedy elevators and easy access to beach with no gate needing keypad entry/exit. Extremely quiet even with full parking lot. Friendly staff especially Joel and his partner setting up beach chairs. There were many people that were extremely nasty and rude to these guys but they always stayed kind and respectful.
This unit is beautiful and oozes relaxation. Living room comfortable for sitting around and kitchen stocked well.
The beds are another story. All were like laying on cardboard. We used to bring a padded mattress pad but hadn't needed it the last few rentals.
While the balcony set made from PVC pipe is trendy and cute it's not very comfortable for sitting in very long (we're not large people) and the table is too large to move around easily.
Over all this is a great unit we'd rent again but we'd bring bed and chair pads.
Thanks for allowing us to borrow your piece of paradise!"

"Vacation 2020 / Johnston
Great time, great location!!!! Our Unit was good, but could use some updating. It was clean, but the kitchen is dated and the TV is small and the TV cabinet prevents viewing from any place other than directly in front of the TV"

"Wonderful Getaway
Pelican Isle 406 Condo was the perfect place for our family with two teenagers! The views from this beachfront location are perfect. The staff and groundskeepers were very visible and professional along with the beach chair attendants! It is now our go to place at the beach!"

"Great as always!
Pelican Island condo are always the best for the money. They are located on Okaloosa Island where it is not as crowded as the Destin area beaches. But, Destin is only 6 miles away where we go for dinner. The Gulf is the "same pond" as Destin but more peaceful."

"My Happy place
We have been using Brooks and Shorey for many years now.
Always a great experience. This was our last vacation with my daughter before her wedding. The condo nor the beach was great. She loved all of the shelves in the bathroom. Also found a new place to eat. Lulus and cow head."

"Vacation
We loved our stay and the location of the property. My only complaint is that the bed was very uncomfortable. "
Aug 08, 2019 - , Woodland, AL
"NO PEACE
The condo was NOT cleaned properly, there was a smell of old mop or dirty mop water, the sofa was wet or damp I guess from the “cleaning” crew, the bathroom with the large shower was not cleaned properly.....for the amount of money charged cleanliness SHOULD NOT be an issue.. also loud obnoxious guest from a softball tournament were there right underneath our condo were just awful and carried on until late into the night/morning around 2am. We came to relax and have a peaceful stay!!!!"

"Rest and Relaxation Just What Was Needed
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pelican Isle. The owners of this unit had provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay plus some amusing wall art that we enjoyed. The beach service was appreciated during the day and the balcony view at night. The only fault I could find was an annoying smell in the Condo lobby- machine oil maybe."
Jul 05, 2018 - , Florence, AL
"Amazing vacation!!!!
Everything that was posted in the description of the rental is 100% accurate. The view is possibly the best on all of okalossa island. It was fully furnished clean linens. We had just the best family vacation we could have asked for and it started with our condo rental. "
Jul 01, 2018 - Ashley F., Douglasville, GA
"Great stay!
This was our second stay in this condo. Love the location, clean and safe
My husband and I were very happy to look out the door and be right on the beach. The month of May has been our choice for years, not crowded and traffic much better than summer. We will be back."

"Awesome Stay
This was a great condo for our long weekend visit. The condo was very clean and comfortable. The beachfront location was beautiful and seemed to be very well maintained. And the added amenity of beach chairs and umbrella was really nice. We will definitely consider this for a future visit."

We have stayed with brooks and shorey properties multiple times and have been disappointed. Only one time can I remember that units a/c wasn't working and upon reporting it, we were immediately accommodated. Great people and okaloosa is a awesome place"

Unit was clean, but a little beat up. Screen was broke, TV on top bunk didn't work,they did fix the TV. outdoor furniture us PVC pipe and was not comfortable. Fine for the money we spent, beach service was good."

"Pelican Isle 406
First I must say that Barbara was wonderful to work with. The condo was everything that the listing said it was....we were very happy with our stay. No problems at all. Quiet place almost at the end of Santa Rosa Blvd. The water at the sugary white sand beach was a beautiful blue color and when you got in you could see your feet while standing in waist to neck deep water. This was our first trip to Okaloosa/Fort Walton Beach and won't be our last. I'm sure we'll be returning in the future!"
Oct 09, 2016 - , Greencastle, IN
"Mostly Great
A lot of the time there one of the elevators didn't work.
The microwave in the condo didn't seem to work - it lit up and spun but didn't heat. We didn't need it much so it was no big deal.
The condo was great, the view was awesome, Barbara was very helpful - all good. Thanks!"

"Perfect Vacation
This was my first time ever booking a vacation for my family, and I couldn't be happier with the results. This unit was very nice, and clean and just the right size for my family of 5! It is in an awesome location right on the beach and not too far from Destin! I would for sure recommend this to a friend and would stay here again in a heartbeat!"

"Had fun!
The view was great it was quiet which was great for my family however,our cable didn't work which was a bit inconvenient at night.I also felt it could be cleaned a little better I had to wipe some spots off the master bathroom door and also their was socks and stuff under the bunk beds that wasn't ours no big deal though that was just some things I noticed overall we had a great time and even stayed an extra night!"
May 22, 2016 - Kayla S., Anderson, Al
"Not What It Used To Be
As previous owners at Pelican Isle, we were very disappointed. While owners, we visited several times per year and have continued to stay here almost every year since. The entire building needed some cleaning. What happened to trash cans by elevators? This unit needs a thorough cleaning. Bare feet would become black after walking on floors. Housekeeping came up and did a once-over using plain water & washing mop out in kitchen sink! Yuck!! Had to have one toilet paper holder replaced as it was broken when we checked in. No room to unpack clothing – no hangers in closet, dresser drawers filled with extra pillows(of which there were too many). Had to purchase room air freshener due to fishy smell in condo. Glass dining table wobbly and was a hazard. Balcony furniture uncomfortable. TV was small for today’s standards. Walls had been repainted, but baseboards were dirty and never repainted. Smoking should also be allowed only in certain areas. It was difficult to even sit on the balcony without inhaling cigarette and nasty cigar smoke! We have always been proud to refer people to Pelican Isle, but this visit makes us question future referrals. Would we recommend? MAYBE"

"Pelican Isle 4 night stay
We stayed in an Pelican Isle condo for a 4 night stay. Place was clean, had beach front view, and was really nice. We checked in after hours and the process was easy and clear, a breeze. The next morning when resarvation was finalized, process was smooth and clerk was extremely helpful. Over all a great stay and would do it again."

"Fantastic Family Vacation
Our family of 4 was extremely happy with this condo. Everything was clean and the beds were so comfortable. I was a little worried about the size of the bunk beds for my 14 year old son but they were plenty big enough. The kids loved that they each had a TV in their bunk with their own remote. All the TVs were flat screens and very nice. We did not use the sofa sleeper. The lady at the check in desk was great. We took advantage of the movie card and watched several good movies while on vacation. There were plenty movies to choose from and many current titles. We will definitely stay here again. "

"Vacation 2014
We enjoyed our stay at PI406. The property was exactly as the pictures portrayed. The property was clean for the most part. The only minor things I noticed was the top electrical outlet in the living area was broken. The overhead vent in the master bath did not look like it had been cleaned for a while. The last day we were there, we could smell cigarette smoke when we sit out on the balcony. We will probably rent this property again if it is available.

"Beach condo
Amazing week in Destin! It was our second year staying at Pelican Isle and we were a bit disappointed with the condo this year. The condo was great except when we would go outside on our balcony to enjoy the ocean. We had smokers in the balcony beside us and we were constantly smelling their cigarette smoke. "
Jul 28, 2014 - , Parkville, MO
"Best Condo Ever!!
The condo was awesome. Clean, everything you could need and the perfect location. The staff was great. We weren't suppose to check in until 4pm. We arrived at 10:30 and were able to go ahead to the beach. The front desk called me by 11 and had our room ready! We felt like we had an entire extra day by checking in so early. We will definitely stay there again next year!"

"Great Vacation!
This was our first time to Fort Walton Beach. We were very pleased with our choice to stay at Pelican Isle. Unit 406 was exactly what we needed for a family of 4, and could have accommodated a family of 6 nicely. Great view of the Gulf from the balcony!"

This is the third time we have rented this condo and we have never had any issues. It is always clean, everything works, and a great view of the gulf. The agents from Brooks and Shorey were pleasant to deal with and the inclusion of the beach chairs and umbrella in the rental means one less thing to worry about."

"March 2014 review
This was an excellent location. Beach was just a few steps away. Beach service was excellent. Unit was rather small. Lots of towels, but bed linens were poor. Many pillows, but most with no pillow cases. Sheets old and stained. Overall cleanliness of unit was below average. We liked the convenience of having a keypad for entrance rather than keys. Not sure what we would have done if electricity was out, as it was briefly during thunderstorms."

"Family Get Away prior to School Session
The property was very nice. Don't know if it is in all condo's but the sofa bed was quite uncomfortable....did not provide back support and sagged quite a bit. Also, in this particular property we found only two (2) pots.
It could have used a few more.
The beach condition was not favorable as it usually is; but, we attributed that to the weather which brought in so much seaweed.
Also chairs on patio were not comfortable, in fact two (2) of the guests fell due to the pvc piping not being secured. No injuries thank goodness. "

"Keep looking...
The overall property was okay. The pool could use lights for night swimming. Our room was not very clean. My son slept on the pull out couch and it was filthy underneath. Some of the dishes had lipstick stains so we had to wash everything before we used it. I will more than likely not stay here again."

Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate and we ended up spending more time than we had hoped in our condo. So we were thankful for such a nice place. Very comfy beds! The kids and my husband thoroughly enjoyed the flat screen TVs. Location is perfect! Right on the beach. Elevators are clean and easily accessible. We had an issue with the lock on our balcony and they came to fix it within the hour. Vey helpful and friendly staff. This is our second year at Pelican Isle and I would definitely recommend it! One thing we were concerned with is there is not much room for seating at the pool, but we were always able to find an available chair. "

"Great condo, poor mgmt
I booked through Brooks and Shorey Resorts, Inc. (B&S) for a condo to spend an off-season anniversary week. The unit provided was personally recommended by the B&S staff. Checked in and there was not any normal basics (paper towels, clothes hangers, etc.). More importantly, maintenance and painting were going on to the balcony and front door. Nobody told us anything ahead of time. Why? We found out by the signs in the elevator that it would be for the weekend. We had all the balcony furniture piled in the living room (very crammed), and the windows/sliding glass door to the balcony were covered (couldn't see out), nor could we use the balcony. If we opened the door, we had maintenance folks on scaffolding staring in. A balcony overlooking the beach is why folks book these condos - right? The weekend was over, and then we find a new sign that says they are going to now paint the balcony and we can't use it for the remainder of the week! The fumes were nauseating. When we brought it up to the B&S staff, we were basically ignored, no obvious care for the customer whatsoever! We understand the need for maintenance. Don't book it to people while it is going on, and certainly tell them what is being planned and offer an alternative. Our week was a huge disappointment when it didn't need to be. The B&S staff is probably fine, so long as you never have a problem for them to actually manage. They were unprofessional and I will never book with them again."

We enjoyed the stay at this condo but there were a few things that needed to be repaired which I told the front desk on. The hide-away bed frame was broken so we had to prop the bottom up so my son couldn't sleep on it. The chairs out side kept falling apart and I sat on one of the chairs and I fell to the ground. I also mention to the desk that when they clean the condo that they should make sure they clean the dryer vent really well. It was plug up from people not cleaning it.
If they fix these few things I would stay at that condo again.

"Beach Vacation 2011
The beach is beautiful and we loved being able to walk outside and be right there! Watching the dolphins swim was wonderful. A few reccomendations would be, if the propery could fit the outside tables with umbellas. The unit was great, just would suggest having a new broom. Loved being able to relax and swim!"

"Pelican #406
There are a few things that need cleaning such a horizontal furniture dust and towel rail dust. The tops of the TV cabinets are thick with dust as was the ceiling fan in the bedroom. Probably need to be put on a bi-weekly or monthly schedule
I noticed the toilet seat does not stay up in the master bathroom, a problem for a male in the middle of the night. I had to use the 2nd bathroom if I had to get up at night which was a little inconvenient and could not use it during the day due to the falling seat but no problem during the day as you spend what little time you’re in the condo in the kitchen and living room area.
The sliding patio door track is filthy, almost looks like black mold?? Also the patio door lock didn’t work. I bought a dowel at Home Depot just so the door is secure since the lock doesn't work. I know its 4 floors up but I know that if I really wanted to I could climb over from the patio next door and enter the unit. I know that’s picky but I own a property management company and I do everything I can for my owners to make sure they feel as secure as possible. Lots of opportunists out there who do crazy things.
An additional security item, is the code to the door changed with each new guest? What stops a previous guest from getting in units they stayed in previously? Seems to me that if you're not in the unit and can’t lock the deadbolt anyone who has stayed in that unit before can access it. There is some risk and exposure there.
I think if those things were addressed this place would receive 5 stars for all my ratings.
We had a great time, got lots of sun and fun. The beach was beautiful and with Destin just a few miles a way there is a lot to do in the evening.

"Beautiful condo! Great place to stay!
This is my second year in a row staying in Pelican Isle 406. I fell in love with this condo last summer because it is the perfect size for what my guests and I needed. It is beautifully decorated and very clean. The balcony provides a very nice view straight to the ocean. I come to the Fort Walton/Destin area every summer and if Pelican Isle 406 is available next year, that will be my first choice of places to stay."

Pelican Isle property was great-clean and convenient location. We really enjoyed it and the staff was alot of help and fun to deal with. Next year we'll wait to late May or 1st of June so it will be a little warmer & more sun."

"Its a 1 bedroom condo need I say more?
Perfect for people with small kids. The decorating is a little to be desired kinda reminded me of walking into Big Lots or Hobby lobby not very sheek but better than Breakers by a long shot. The extra bathroom was nice. To be honest it is all the way down the island almost to the Air Force installation. To far to walk for Fudpuckers and Cash's or Waffle House. If youve never been to Ft walton youll be ok with it. If you have been you might be a tad dissapointed."

"The 4th floor patio was welll located facing the water and having the sun the entire day. There was plenty of room for two people and the kitchen was well provisioned. The lighting was good as we are both readers and the furniture was comfortable.
All in all, the stay was good and we will be in the sme complex next year."

We were happy with 406 but have a few suggestions: The coffee pot needs to be cleaned, the coffee doesnt taste good coming out of it and the blender leaks making it unusable. I would suggest providing dishwashing soap/detergent. Those items should not have to be purchased by the renter. Also, the quality of the toilet paper was terrible and there was no box of kleenex. "
