You can enter the website of The Pelican Bay Foundation and learn about this unique community by entering “Pelican Bay Foundation” in your computer's browser. Pelican Bay is a beautiful neighborhood, with a variety of housing including tall apartment buildings, single family homes, and different configurations of apartments. Landscaping is well-maintained. Pelican Bay has two beaches, separated by an inlet. Beach attendants will put out chairs, lounges, and umbrellas for you. The amenities are available to residents, tenants, and their guests. There are wooden berms through the mangroves that enable beach access. Trams are provided for persons who prefer to ride from the parking lots through the mangroves to the beach. Walking, running, and biking are also permitted. One can only access the beaches and other amenities (tennis courts, fitness center, beach restaurants) with a resident owner, tenant, or a guest of a resident or tenant who has obtained a “Guest Card” for you without the owner or tenant being present.

Sandbar, the South Beach restaurant, reopens on Tuesday, January 9, 2024. 823 Tanbark DR APT 101 is a first-floor apartment with three bedrooms/2 baths. The floor plan is among the photographs.
