Pictures do not do this stay justice! It was the perfect place for our large family vacation and the hosts where very responsive. Great location on the canal, plus close to public beach access. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful family vacation at the Dancing Pelican. The kitchen was fully stocked with appliances and dishes - very important to us as we all love to cook. The furniture and beds were so comfortable as well with plenty of space for all of us. The walk to the beach was so easy. We will definitely be back!

Family vacation

Beautiful house a short walk to beach. 5-bedrooms that were exactly what we needed. The huge walk-in showers were wonderful, although the kids loved the outside shower. Each floor has a large family space where we could gather to play games, watch tv or just hang out. Large kitchen and plenty of storage. Elevator was nice to help bring up luggage and groceries. Will definitely consider staying here again.

We had an amazing time at Holden Beach staying in the Dancing Pelican! The house is beautiful with great bedroom setups. The kitchen is well stocked with all amenities that you may need to cook for the week, including a gas grill. The kids loved fishing off the canal dock and catching tons of little fish each night. The hosts were available quickly via phone and VRBO messaging for questions. You are a three minute walk to the closest beach access. Despite it being the week after July 4th, the beach was not crowded at all. It was amazing to be able to easily find a spot close to the ocean each day. You won’t regret booking this house! We will definitely consider it for future visits.

Holden Holiday

Our group of nine had the best weekend at the Dancing Pelican! The house is located on a quiet side street on the canal and was a very short walk to the public beach access. We especially enjoyed sitting in the rocking chairs and relaxing each night. The house itself is beautiful, clean, and spacious. The owners provided so many thoughtful touches like floor fans in each bedroom, strategically placed night lights, and outlets with charging ports to name a few. The kitchen was well-stocked and neatly organized. This was our first trip to Holden Beach and we found it to be the perfect family and dog friendly beach. We are already planning our return trip!
