Shyann, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're thrilled you enjoyed the beach view and the amenities. We'll look into the TV and clock issue. We can't wait to welcome you back again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy!

Five stars for Real Joy Vacations! We were privileged to stay at Pelican Beach Resort for our first time this past Jan-Feb. We found Real Joy very helpful if an issue arose concerning our condo. Those who were sent out to correct issues were pleasant and greeted us with smiles. Special shout out to Michael who bought and brought us a King foam mattress pad to make our night’s sleep more comfortable. To Davis and Adam who fixed our kitchen faucet. To April who I must say is top notch with personality and pleasantness in checking out a bathroom toilet issue. If she had had more time, I would have loved for her to enjoy a glass of ice tea with us. To Van for correcting the toilet issue that April felt we needed. And to Logan for calling to see how our stay went and to offer heartfelt prayers after hearing we had to cut our stay a couple days shorter due to my husband’s health. Top notch people working to help us have the best vacation getaway…it was refreshing working with Real Joy. Thank you much…E & E

Great View
The view of the gulf was impressive. The fifth floor was just right for us. Floor needed to be mopped better. My wife and I had to keep washing our feet. Cannot forget phone in room so can get back in with complicated code.

David, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're glad you and your wife enjoyed the impressive view of the gulf from the fifth floor. Next time, please let us know if the floor isn't as clean as it should have been and we'll send a new cleaner out to make it right. We hope you'll join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

We love this resort. It was a great stay. We do wish that the master bed would have been more comfortable. The access to the beach and multiple pools was great. We had a wonderful time overall.
