Disliked: Cleanliness
Pelican by A Shore was not that great of a stay. I would not recommend to a friend. The condo is very out of date. The pictures are not true. First night the fire alarm kept going off and we let them know. This was while we were just sleeping. Told me someone would be calling. They never did. Had to just take it down bc it just kept going off. The furniture in the place was stained and disgusting looking. One of the bathrooms doors wouldn’t even close. When we went to do laundry, the washing machine smelled of mold and had mold in it. Also told them about this and that it was making the condo smell and still no one came. The pictures make it look like the pool is big. It’s very small! It’s also not very close to the beach at all. It’s a good 10-15 minute walk. Overall I would never stay here again.

Very nice 2BR/2BA condo near Holmes Beach!

The condo was very clean, comfortable and well stocked. The pool was wonderful! The free trolley that runs all over Anna Maria Island is within walking distance.
