"Beach Vacation
Beautiful Condo with an amazing view. The master bedroom mattress needs replacing. It's not the most comfortable."

Cable was out two days...understand...
Designated parking at building was unavailable... understand
Staff were great, especially the lead on maintenance - very conscientious... above and beyond..."

"Like coming home
This was our first time in unit 502 but have been staying at Pelican Isle since it was built. This unit was very nice well appointed and we were very pleased with it. We had some issues with the property but not the individual unit.The biggest disappointment was that this unit comes with a covered parking space and the entire covered garage was closed due to broken pipes and nothing was done all week long to begin repairs and so we were without our covered parking spot. Also most of the week one of the elevators was down. Finally got it fixed 2 days before we left. We have no issues with the unit or Brooks and Shorey but the maintenance of the building itself seems not to be what it should be. "

"Great anniversary getaway
The condo and the view were exactly as pictured!! Nice to have 2 bathrooms so that I could spread out! The condo was clean and ready for us......THE VIEW!!! Spectacular!!! Only complaint that we have is that the bed could use new and/or better mattress. We both had aches from sleeping on it."

"Just right
My two sons and mother had a wonderful time! Perfect location. Staff was friendly and attentive. The bunks are more suited for younger children, but my 13 and 15 year olds were able to get comfortable. FYI...there is no blender, so bring one of you want margaritas! The master bedroom mattress is very firm. "

"Amazing Beach!
We were extremely pleased with our getaway to Fort Walton Beach. Pelican Isle was in the perfect location and had an amazing beach. The condo was clean, spacious and had everything we needed for the perfect vacation. The beach attendant was AMAZING and worked diligently to set up early each morning. We will be back! "

Great condo! Very clean. Plenty of towels, etc.Great balcony furniture, loved the "high" chairs. If you like a very firm bed, this is it. Nice leather couch, at one time. Back cushions about flat. Otherwise well stocked kitchen, nicely decorated, again very clean.Brooks Shorey great wonderful company!"

We loved our stay at this condo! It was in a great location and was clean & well equipped with all of the necessities. This condo was very quiet because it wasn’t above the pool area. We can’t wait to go back. "

We had a great time. Wish the weather had been better. 3 great days, 1 all day rain and 6 cloudy. The condo was great, nice view. The shower needs a bit of work and maybe update the silverware. All in all an awesome 10 days. Definitely looking at Pelican Isle again next year!"

Brooks and Shorey were top shelf for communications. Highly recommend. "

"Perfect weekend getaway
This condo was very spacious for a one bedroom, extremely clean, comfortable, well stocked, and had spectacular views. It was just the two of us, but with bunkbeds in the hallway area, there was room for our two grandchildren, a very nice feature. Check-in and check-out is very simplistic, parking is close and the elevators were never too busy, even on a holiday weekend, again, it was a perfect getaway."

"Summer Vacay
I've stayed at many condo's from Brooks and Shorey, this one wasn't one of my favorites just because of the layout of where the pool is and the boardwalk. The king mattress could use an upgrade it was very uncomfortable but other than that we enjoyed our stay and will 100% rent from B&S again :)"
Jul 18, 2021 - Cassie C., Crowley, LA
"Perfect vacation!
This condo was perfect for our family of 4. It was clean and the location was wonderful. We received our door code earlier than expected. We did not have any maintenance issues other than the bathroom tub didn’t drain well. Not a big deal at all! Next time I will bring extra pillows. That’s just a personal preference. The beds were all very comfortable. I would most certainly stay here again! "

Excellent "

"Great time
The condo was very clean, beautiful and we loved having the chairs and umbrella set us for us each day. Pool area was very nice. The neighbors in 503 on the other hand were teenagers with no adult supervision in the unit, very loud day and night, someone called police because of fighting in the hallway and vomit outside our door because of underage drinking. We called but were told that this unit wasn't one of yours so there wasn't anything you could do about it but have us move to another unit if one was available."

"Great family beach rental!
My family of five loved this rental! The kids slept on the bunk beds. The kitchen has nice granite counters. The appliances looked brand new. We love the convenience of the room to the beach and pool. We hope to go back next year! "

"Awesome Stay!
Unit was spotless on our arrival. Loved having my own bathroom (myself & hubby) Bed was SUPER comfortable. Oh & that stunning beachfront view from the balcony! Kudos to the interior designer/owner Loved the interior design of the place (very much my taste)
Our only con is that we could not check in earlier than we would have liked, we flew in on red eye flight & were exhausted.Had a wonderful early lunch at AJ's down the street with great friendly service. Overall just a fabulous relaxing trip. fir Recommend Publix grocery store for groceries just over the bridge. You will need a car. Our first visit to the panhandle area would definitely choose this unit again. Thank you!"

"Pelican isle 502
We had a great time on our vacation! The unit was very clean. The pictures were an accurate representation of the condo. The views were amazing! Easy access to the beach and pool. The only complaint I would have is that the walls were quite thin. The bedroom is located next to the outside wall and you could hear every noise outside and from the neighboring unit. I downloaded a white noise app that helped with that. I would definitely recommend this unit. "

Nice,but as senior citizens,it would have been better if there had been rubber mats and/or safety bars in the showers.Very slippery otherwise."

"Perfect for our Girlfriend Weekend Getaway!!
Three moms of teenagers hit the beach for a long weekend and this place was perfect! We splurged for the ocean view and never regretted it.23 are pretty sure this must become an annual trip and we would definitely stay in this unit again. Clean, tastefully decorated, easy details with booking and getting access to the unit."

"What a wonderful little place!
Okaloosa Island was amazing! We will be back in the summer, unless we can sneak away before. The condo was perfect for a romantic getaway. The food and fun ranked among the best we've had. Beach chair service was a great perk. Anyone we spoke with at Brooks and Shorey was extremely helpful and professional from the time we booked until the moment we left. Amazing experience all around!! "

"Perfect dose of vitamin sea
Everything from the reservation, through the contract correspondence, directions to the condo, and check out we're the easiest procedures that I have ever experienced with any condo rental. Made our short stay so much more enjoyable. Loved the inclusion of the beach chair and umbrella rentals and the daily discounted extra perks like the Sea Blaster Dolphin Sunset cruise -- a must do! We will certainly be back for another dose of vitamin sea. Thanks for a great time! "

We absolutely love Pelican Isle Brooks and Shorey Resort! This was our 4 year in a row to come back and it's always a treat. The kitchen has everything I need to make my family an awesome meals everyday and is in the perfect location for me to drive to the grocery or fish market! The view is amazing and the beds are so comfortable. And it's always so clean!!! We just love these condos and for sure will be spending our 5 year here next year!"

"Fun vacation at a great location!!
This was our first time here and we loved it!! The room was clean, amazing views, loved the hot tub, and the washer and dryer was super convenient for us! We would definitely come back to this condo in the future. The only suggestion I would make is to get comfy sheets, the sheets on the king bed were very rough feeling and to update the couch. We had a great vacation at pelican isle 502!! "

"As Always Great Getaway
This is our third year in a row using Brooks & Shorey Vacation Rentals. Great office staff, very professional. My wife and I have enjoyed our stay every year. This year was no exception either. We were unable to find a rental at the Islander where we had stayed the previous two years however the Pelican Isle #502 didn't disappoint. We'll be back next year! Keep up the good work!"

"Condo 502
We had perfect weather. The condo was nice but showing age and some hard use. Needs a coat of paint on everything from walls right down to the paint on the bunk bed ladder. Some of the trim needs replacing. The master bath didn't seem to get the same cleaning attention that the main bath did, i.e. the ceiling fan. Full of lint where the main bath is not. The only other cleaning issue I noticed was the patio door track being very dirty. Otherwise the furniture was the most comfortable of any of the pelican isle condos we have stayed in. The bed was a toss up, I thought it was ok but my wife really liked it. Neighbors in 501 were incredibly noisy. Lots of door slamming and yelling at all hours as friends came and went. Smoking on the deck so you had to stay inside when they were outside. That's ok, we didn't come for the deck, we came for the beach."
Apr 30, 2017 - Nick S., Madison, WI
"Best Weather Week
The property description was exactly as was shown on the website. The condo was clean for the most part. The weather was absolutely beautiful all week. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and viewing the ocean all week. We have visited Pelican Isle many times, first time this condo. We enjoyed eating at McGuire's, Stewbys, Boshamps. If I could add anything, it would be a full length mirror."

"Never have vacationed in a condo before but......
Overall our stay was great! My family & I truly enjoyed sliding the balcony door open to hear the gulf waves EVERYDAY! Late night beach walks were fun filled and the early morning exercise runs felt so good. The Okaloosa pier was breath taking & so close to visit! The bonus treat was being able to see dolphins, hammerhead sharks, jelly fish, sea turtles and sting rays from above this pier!! PI 502 made us feel like being home away from home! "

"GREAT stay at Pelican Isle #502!
We spent a long weekend at Pelican Isle #502, and loved it. The view was spectacular, great to watch the sun rise/set, and the dolphins swim by. The kitchen was handy to have, as the grocery store is a short drive away (3 minutes), and we were able to get drinks and sandwiches, etc. Very clean unit. Away from the main crowds, yet not isolated by any means, close to plenty of things. Bed was very comfortable, and having the 2nd bathroom was very handy for us."

"Wonderful Experience
to start- the reservation reps were amazing, pleasant & helpful....We had a wonderful experience staying at this condo. Exactly as pictured! Very clean! Lots of Towels!!! King Bed comfy, Beautiful Dishes, Cabinets stocked with pots, pans, dishes, silverware, etc... Pleasantly surprised! Loved the many places to hang swimsuits & towels- hooks a plenty! The view is amazing! The condo is quiet, no problem with hearing others, even on the balcony... every one we spoke w/ , staying in this condo, was so friendly, we never encountered anyone unpleasant. The room is directly across from Trash Chute- very helpful.. the room is by the stairs to go down to the parking lot or beach walk- very convenient, to skip walking the hall & taking the elevator. The walk area and wash off station is very clean.. the beaches are very clean..the "chair boys" were super polite and pleasant- they were amazing! They set up the chairs/umbrellas every morning @ 7:30am & took them down every evening around 5:30-6pm...people do wait to reserve a chair every morning, so I went down around 7:30-8am and I got my chairs every morning, by putting towels on the chairs (everyone does it), then go back inside to get ready, wake up, and go out when ready- chairs will be waiting for you...the beaches are not crowded, lots of evening-very vacant, very nice! Our favorite places we ate-- The Crab Trap, Slick Mick's in FT Walton (excellent Pizza and Philly Cheese Steaks & super awesome staff!), and The Original Crab Shack on the marina in Ft Walton... Very pleased with this condo, the area, the beaches- truly lovely!!"

"Wonderful Condo
This was my family's second time at Pelican Isle and first time in room 502. The furnishings were very comfortable. Not all the condos have carpet but we preferred it since we have a 15 month old. The kitchen had everything we needed. This condo is one of the ones furthest from the elevator, close to the stairs. We were glad about that, no elevator noise. And we took the stairs several times to count as exercise while on vacation. Pelican Isle has an amazing view. Since the condo is further from town, the beach almost feels secluded. LOVE it. We will be back next year."

"Outstanding beachfront view and accommodations
This was our second stay at the Pelican Isle condominiums, and it will continue to be our first choice in the Ft. Walton-Destin area. The beach there is a little more private as it is near the east end of the line of condominiums and hotels on Okaloosa Island. The Brooks and Shorey personnel were positive, helpful, pleasant and a joy to deal with. The unit itself was very clean, and everything was functional. The bed and sofa were comfortable, and the decorations pleasant."

I truly enjoyed my stay at Pelican Isle. This unit in particular was soooo clean! That's what impressed me most. It was roomy, it was cozy, it was so comfortable. Cannot say enough good about it.

"enjoyed Pelican Isle 502
Condo was clean and lovely. Plenty of towels. Front desk staff were extremely nice. Enjoyed the easy access to the beach and convenient parking. View was fantastic. Condo was quiet for sleeping even thought at least one neighbor had kids. Kitchen was convenient for quick breakfast before heading to beach.
A couple of problems: TV in living room, remote doesn't work. Had problems watching a movie. Ceiling fan in master makes a weird noise and knob on master closet falling off.
Too much June grass (seaweed) but that is out of control of Pelican Isle. "

"6 glorious weeks on Ft. Walton Beach
My wife and I had the opportunity to stay for 6 weeks on the beautiful whilte sands of Ft. Walton Beach. We had a wonderful stay. The unit we were in would be perfect for a family with 2-3 children. The bunk beds and 2nd bathroom work well. The onsite manager resolved several issues in a very efficient manner. All rentals will occasionally have issues, the important thing is having them handled. Walking to the desk is much faster than trying to track down a absentee owner! This area is much less dense with development and people than Destin. This is the place to stay. Within 8 miles of all Destin restaurants and amusements.Wide beaches and clear water. The beach chairs and umbrella were great. Lifequards are active when needed. "
Jul 21, 2015 - John H., Phoenix, AZ
"Great Condo!
The condo and staff were terrific. The only downside is that the beach chairs closest to the water were claimed by 8:00 each morning."

Our daughter's first time at the beach and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. The lady at the front desk was so nice, the room was perfect for our small family and the view was breathtaking. We were only about 5 mins from Destin so we were able to enjoy all the highlights of it but then return to the condo and the quiet, not crowded beach. We are already planning another trip soon! "

My family stayed at Pelican Isle in 2012. So when it came time for another Florida vacation we new exactly where we were going! I love this property. The unit we stayed in has a ton of little extras. The free movie box was great for my kids at night. You can't beat the view! I also loved the chair service. It was nice to see the same girl was working at the front desk from years before. We have had the most wonderful vacations at Pelican Isle. We wouldn't stay anywhere else."

"Our Beautiful Rest and Relaxation Spot
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We have used Brooks and Shorey several times on our visits there and have always been happy with our rental experience with them. We would not hesitate to recommend Brooks and Shorey to friends visiting that area. We also will try and stay in the same unit when we visit the beach again."
May 18, 2014 - , Lakeview, AR
"Pelican Isle the best spot on Okaloosa Island
This is our favorite spot in the Ft Walton Destin area. We found Pelican Isle by accident the first time, but 7 return visits is no accident. Becasue we often decide to come down on short notice, we stay in whichever unit may be available to match our plans. So we have seen 5 different untits at least, mostly 1 BR and 1 2BR. All were decorated nicely, all were well maintained and made us feel like home. The one time we had an issue, maintenance was there in less than an hour. We like that it is isolated form Hwy 98, and the military reservation just down the road makes this a "dead end" of sorts, so it is much more quiet and peaceful than many similar properties. Already looking forward to a return trip"

"A breathtaking wonder.
I loved every single aspect of my stay. There should be no doubt in booking this room. It is delightful. I would like to capitalize on the beach service I received. It was my favorite part of the whole vacation. They were friendly and helpful, and are one of my main reasons for coming back each year. :)"

"Great vacation destination!
All of the units at Pelican Isle face the beach and Gulf! Wonderful to sit in the condo and enjoy watching the waves or sit on the deck and listen to those waves! Everything you might need is supplied in the kitchen! Love, love the white sand and turquoise water!! Beautiful!"

"Overall, a great week at the Beach!
I have to preface any comments by the fact that we had the most wonderful weather I have ever seen! So, we did not actually spend much time in the actual condominium. Overall, I found the condominium to be very nice. We initially had an issue with there being a lot of light bulbs out all over the unit. We reported it to the front desk and it was taken care of quickly. The unit was comfortable. The furniture was nice and adequate. There was an issue in the master bathroom with the shower leaking. No matter what we tried to do, there was a huge lake of water on the floor after showering. I think that a ledge would take care of this problem. There were some staple items in the kitchen that I thought they were missing. There were no scissors in the kitcen. Overall it was a nice week and I would recomment this unit to somebody I know. "

"Wonderful Beach Front
We spent 3 nights in this wonderful condo and enjoyed every minute. The front desk clerk was exceptional, we arrived early and she called to let us know when our condo was ready. The beach service was a great time saver; the guys were up early setting up umbrellas and chairs. Could not ask for a better view of the beach!! Sitting on the balcony early morning with family was a great memory. Thank you for allowing us into your home. Will defintely be back for more!"

"THANKS FOR THE STAY !!!
The only real concerns I would have is that the outside lock on the entry is not as secure as it should be... Unless you check the handle upon leaving to validate it locked than it never fully locks... I experienced this on my rental & on a friends rental..."

"Property Manager Service
I have been using Brooks and Shorey for many years to reserve my vacation rentals in the Destin/Ft. Walton Area, and I have never had a problem until this year. I called the desk at the property rental office to let them know that I would be arriving after hours, and they informed me that they would leave a key for us. We got the key and went up to our room to find the property owner had decided to come for the weekend; however, this was not supposed to be our room which was really not the problem. Let me clarify that I did not have a problem receiving the wrong room key. I had a problem when I called the Manager on Duty to report the problem. First, she did not answer the phone, and when she called my husband back, she treated us like criminals and basicly accused us of lieing. The lady at the front desk was visibly shaken the next morning by the managers behavior toward her as well. This is not the start that anyone wishes to have to a long holiday weekend at the beach."

"A million dollar view!!
We loved everything about our stay. A great place to stay with kids because our 6 year old always had someone to play with and we met nice people from all parts. The condo and grounds were freshly remodled and everyone from the beach guys to the desk clerk very awesome. "

"Quick Trip
The unit was clean and tastefully decorated in a current fashion that was pleasing to adults and teenage girls. View was wonderful. Staff was very helpful and hospitable. Will stay again if given the chance. "

"Should have told me when I made reservations
I was not aware of the 4pm check in time - ridiculous!!! I was not aware of the painting crews and pressure washing that would be going on during our stay. There was mold in the master bath that bothered me (my wife wasn't bothered by it)... I feel the condo should be CLEAN. The beach was awesome as usual but the pool was closed and the noise from pressure washer was aggravating. Wondering if something would be dropped on our heads walking out to the beach was a safety issue. Pelican Isle Mgmt should have done more to protect its guests. Having to share the elevator with painters, paint and tools? Give me a break already ! The on-site staff felt our pain also. Someone should have told us about all the building maintenance that was going on. Since we were married on the beach at Pelican Isle we will certainly come back. I will ask more questions before confirming reservations next time. "

Very satisfied with the staff and the condo. Had a very enjoyable stay."

"Tropical Storm
We had a bad time with the tropical storm but there is nothing you can do about that. My concern was there was no information as to what to expect (that half of the electrical outlets would work in a power outage etc) and what to do and not to do. As it
was it was more of an inconvenience that anything else. The staff, Jessica did what she could but just having some kind of plan would have been nice. Replace the shower that used to be on the walkway from the beach. Replace the chain restraint on the flag
pole and either light it at night or take it down at sunset. Little things at P.I. are making it look old and a bit rundown. We'll stay again."

"Lovely room with great view of ocean and beach. Nice having our own beach chairs and umbrella waiting for us every day.

"Great Location
I have stayed at Pelican Isle 3 different times before. The location is the best. Quiet and beautiful. The condo is in need of a lttle updating. The dish washer basket on the bottom barely rolled out to put dishes in. The stove had ugly aluminum foil under the uneven burners. The kitchen pots and pans were worn out. The screen door on one side was broken. The furnishings were nice and everything was clean. Redo the kitchen and the condo will be great again. "

"Not our usual
Our first time to stay in a "condo" as we usually book beach houses or maybe a townhouse.
The staff at Brooks and Shorey were wonderful and we would definitely book with them again.
The property was well-kept and in a beautiful location--just much more crowded than we like."

"only one negative
The only negative that we encountered was we had to wait until about 5:30 to get into our room. This was the case with several other guests as well. We were told at 3:45 that the room was just being cleaned. Check-in was suppose to be at 4:00. After driving 10 hours we really just wanted to settle into our room instead of sitting in the lobby for nearly two hours.
The room itself was very nice and spacious. The beach and views were beautiful. Amenities were also a major plus. We loved the umbrella and chairs right on the waters edge and ready for us every morning."

The only complaint we have is that the TV's need to be updated. The ice maker does work but it leaks and the ice clumps."

Our stay was overall geat as far as the condo goes, however, we were in the middle of a storm so we didn't get to enjoy the ocean or all the outdoor activities. "

"October 14
The only problem we had was with the magnetic keys not working one night we were stuck for about 30 minutes trying to get it to work. We called after hour phone number and was told there will be a $35.00 charge. We finally got it to work before the repairman came, then the next day we got the key replaced and it didnt work so good either. Other than that it was a nice visit. Loved the free movies and one free beach chair/umbrella."

"so fantastic we lengthened our stay!
We enjoyed Pelican Isle very much - have previously stayed in Island Princess and Emerald Towers West. Access to beach was great! Views were fantastic. Only deterrent - condo could have used a really good deep clean (baseboards, doors, etc.)"

"after the stay
I left my meds and had to call back a day after we left. I had my meds back in my hands 2 days later. We have stayed with B&S several years now and have been pleased every time. "

"Awesome Visit!
This is the third time I have stayed at the Pelican Isle and I love it! The beach is never crowded and the condos are always so nice and clean. Plus I love sitting on the balcony and looking at the ocean. Beautiful view! I will definitely come back!"

"Great stay
We had a wonderful time. The condo was nice and clean although it had an odor but tolerable. It was perfect location and the amenities were nice, love having the beach chairs and umbrella free of charge. The extra beach chairs in the condo were nice but 2 of the 3 were well worn and broke the first day used. Every thing else in the condo was so nice, we will be back."

"Outstanding service!
Loved the condo. Really appreciate your willingness to work with Military and civilians on Temporary Duty. Couldn't have asked for a nicer unit for Per Diem rates. Beat the heck out of a motel and 4-square walls...
Thanks again. Look forward to my next business trip or vacation.

"The property itself was nice, but there was one thing that really turned me off
The property itself was nice, but there was one thing that really turned me off. Although the sheets were clean, the camforters were dirty and smelled. Also the couch in living room was so dirty and had this awful smell that even despite of airing the place up, the whole condo was of course impossible to sit on it or to sleep. Too bad, cause other than that, it would've been a great experience. "

"My sister-in-law from Atlanta says this was the best beach vacation she's had in years
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Everything we needed was there for us to enjoy. The beachside view was excellent and the short walk to the beach was a big plus! We enjoyed Pandora's and Anglers Restaurant. I mentioned my sister-in-law - well, she is hard to please; however, she was very pleased with all the amenities and surrounding area. We would like to spend several days in the fall - maybe you'll have a special?? Thanks for taking care of our needs. Leon & Charlene Hamner "
