The Funky Pelican Retreat-Direct Oceanfront Sunrise

Enjoy everything beach dreams are made of with this direct oceanfront, super cute beach house. 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bath, large kitchen open to living room and dining room with massive windows looking out to the ocean. Tons of space, laundry room with washer/dryer, massive decks, outdoor shower and an almost private beach feel. Grab your coffee and watch the dolphins play as the sunrises. Close to Flagler Beach and St. Augustine. 1.5 hours to Disney.

Unit has private entrance and is a huge townhouse directly on the beach. Patio/Deck is shared. The building is two townhouses, this is one side. This is the ultimate in what beach vacations are made of-house is on stilts and give a feel of stepping back in time to enjoy time with family and friends, yet still has all the modern luxuries to make your stay amazing.
****Attention***this property no longer has a functioning hot tub and the hot tub will be completely removed in the following months.

We are available and just a phone call away.

We are here to help so please reach out to the property manager for anything you need. Please note we have someone on staff 24 hours a day, so please call main number. Please do not reach out to individual staff as they may or may not be on call and if they are not working you will not hear back from them so please call main number.

Provided: 3 rolls toilet paper per bathroom, hand soap, dish soap (small bottle), 1 roll paper towels, 1 trash bag per bin, 3 dish soaps and three laundry pods.

Guests will be required to provide a photo ID and credit card for security deposit ($500). Security deposit is a pre-authorization, not an actual charge, unless there is damage or missing items. Authorization is removed within 48 hours of check-out.

This is a non-smoking unit-we don't care what you smoke, just do it outside. Any smoke smell in home or evidence of smoking in home will result in complete loss of security deposit. If you smoke in the home, it both is unfair to the owner that is working hard to keep their unit nice and to the next guest that rented a smoke-free home. It's Florida, this is non-negotiable so please understand.

We have our cleaners thoroughly clean and sanitize the home between each guest. We also ask our guests to please do the following at check-out (note, if this upsets you please simply find another location as there is a massive labor shortage, we frequently have guests ask for early or late check-in/out and this is how we are able to make things smooth for all guests. Please note our check out instructions:
1. Strip all beds used and pillows and put sheets, pillow covers and used towels in a pile in center of room or on beds for beds used.
2. Turn off all lights, fans can be left on.
3. Turn off TVs, coffee makers and other electronics.
4. All dishes should either be cleaned or put into dishwasher and start dishwasher cycle. This is to avoid dishes getting crusty and attracting bugs.
5. Please load one load of towels into washing machine and start.
6. Return any books, games, beach items, etc (beach items should be rinsed outside to get rid of any excess sand).
7. Empty any outdoor ashtrays, clean up any cigarette butts.
8. Empty all food from refrigerator (you can leave never opened beverages and used condiments if you wish) put in outside trash and make sure trash is on curb Sun night or Wed night.
9. Make sure keys are left in lockbox ($50 per key replacement) and garage remote and/or parking pass left on counter ($100 replacement fee).
10. Wipe down countertops and leave home the way you found it.
11. Turn A/C to 78 degrees prior to departure.
12. Drive or fly home safely and come back and see us soon!

Great place to stay! Pics of stairs should be included as it's a townhouse with all bedrooms up stairs, which made it difficult for my 92 yr old mother to navigate. Location was great and house was clean, overall I would rent again.

Funky Pelican truly grows on you and you just feel right at home in no time. It’s a great location!
The group that works with the Funky Pelican works with you and makes the process very user friendly. A terrific Welcome basket was a fantastic added personal touch. This was a winner of a place to stay and fully enjoy the beachfront!

Beautiful Location
This house is in a gorgeous spot and the owners have worked hard to provide a sweet retreat with many amenities. The view and beach are gorgeous and quiet, and we loved the large decks. Our family of 4 had ample room and we could have been comfortable with 6-8 people. The beds were comfy and the linens soft. Be prepared for an older home experience. Despite some recent updates, this house has drafty windows and doors and very old kitchen and bathroom plumbing. There is also no longer a hot tub or a grill. Despite these minor issues we very much enjoyed our stay and I would book this house again.

Slice of Paradise
It was all about the living on the beach experience for us. It was indeed! All the comforts of home right on the beach with spectacular views of the ocean. A true feeling of a private beach. We have a large family, nine of us, and we were all comfortable and had ample room without feeling crowded at all. The management was personable and available. Their instructions about the property were easy to understand and made things seamless. Watching the dolphins were addicting. I have decided on two must-haves in my life, a hot tub and a home on the beach 🙌
