Pelican's Perch Crystal Beach

I've never left a review before but the property and it's owner Adriann deserve a standing ovation! The property was so aesthetically pleasing. We had 8 adults and It rained most of the time we were there so we spent a lot of time at the house and it was very comfortable and cozy. I've never seen a kitchen so stocked. I always bring my own kitchen things because usually the properties kitchen equipment is old and used. NOT AT THIS HOUSE! Adriann had everything and anything you needed. From the time I booked the property, Adriann was on top of it. She stayed in contact with me made sure we were all set for our stay at her house. We will definitely stay there again. Adriann and her property get 5 stars from our group!! :)

The property was even more inviting than the pictures online! When you walk in you feel you have started the vacation- the decor is lovely and welcoming. The owners truly have everything on site for a stress free, wonderful beach experience! Comfy beds, plush towels, and the bunk room topped it off the the grandkids. The all star was the LIFT!!!!

Plenty of Space to Spread Out

This was our first stay here and we enjoyed it. The rooms are very spacious, the living room offers plenty of seating and the kitchen is well stocked with cooking and serving items. We enjoyed the giant Connect 4 and the cargo lift was a tremendous help. The walk to the beach is closer to 6/7 minutes but it’s a very easy walk. We will most definitely consider staying here again.

Family Summer Trip

We stayed at “Pelican’s Perch” this summer to ‘host’ family visiting from the Midwest and provide an ocean experience. The beach was great - but - the accommodations put it over the top! Plenty of space for the family to comfortably congregate and sleeping (beds) for all! The beach house was very clean and provided everything listed. Further - the hosts were very responsible and incredibly insightful providing recommendations and advice regarding stores/restaurants on island. I cannot recommend more.

Overall a good experience

The beach was close to the house and very easily accessible with a rented golf cart and truck. The house was clean and the air conditioning system worked perfectly. The beds were comfortable. There were only two minor issues. The refrigerator took a day or two to get to a cold temperature after loading it with our items. After day 2, fridge worked fine. The clothes washing machine didn’t work for our stay. The property manager thought the filter needed cleaning to work properly. All that being said, the property owner was extremely responsive and accommodated the inconveniences. I would stay at this house again.

Three Generation Beach Get-Away

We couldn’t have chosen a better place to spend quality time with our family. The IVEY’s made the trip easy with clear instructions for access, arrival, departure, and everything in between. When packing this family of eight, one or two things were left at home. Fortunately, all things we needed were readily available. Beautifully decorated and just a short walk to the beach. A lift was also provided which made the stairs an option-not a requirement! We are grateful and we’re already planning our next trip!
