Very calm and beautiful beach to take your pet

I’ve stay a weekend there in the Pelican Hotel. The staff is very friendly and you can stay freely with your pet enjoying the beach. The food is ok, the rooms are less comfortable than I expected, but it worth because of the pets.

Major disappointment

If you want a basic, worn down, clean room on the beach, this is your spot. The location is fantastic, but the property is dilapidated, worn down, and unkempt. Our room for a family of four was tiny with 1 twin and 1 full bed, a thin blanket on each bed and 3 pillows total. I could barely open the door to the bathroom to use it because it would get stuck. At least there is warm water, which is not necessary since the room is so hot. The air conditioner is blowing, but not really cool air. The only place to hang towels is in the bathroom. There are no other towel hooks around the room, even though we’re at the beach. Our room only came with two towels, and two tiny soaps. There were no more towels available until the next day either! No wash clothes, hand towels, etc. There is not even a mirror in the bathroom, or anywhere in this room. Back to the water. Yes it was warm, but can you count on regular running water?...No! Several times, over a period of 3 days, when we tried to shower, there was no water....at all! It even went off in the middle of when my husband was showering. We would have to wait a few hours before it came back on. On top of that, the room we rented for my MIL flooded with sewer water from the toilet. The cleaning staff apologized, but nothing was said by management. Thankfully, she is understanding, because that is just gross! Her room also did not have regular running water, and was dilapidated. The “kitchen” included a dirty fridge, sink and old, dirty toaster oven. Wifi did not work in her room, only ours by the pool....when it was actually working. There were electrical issues also.
The pool is tiny, and there is no light in it at night that I can see. There are literally 3 worn out plastic lounge chairs around the pool.
The door to our room did not lock properly. The door knob locked, but all you had to do was push the door, and even though “locked”, it would open.
The food is decent and priced a bit on the higher side. The restaurant was also way understaffed. There was usually only one waitress, so it took 45 minutes or more to get our food. On the same note, they did not have many of the items on the menu. It was like a game every day to order and see if they would have an item or not. The location is great, however the rest is not. I wasn’t expecting luxury, or high end, but definitely more than what we paid for. Save your money, and go stay somewhere else further on down the beach.

A lovely place to stay

We spent a few days in November. It was quite empty and the weather wasn’t great. The staff were really friendly, especially Paula and Byron.
We had a problem with the AC in the room, and we mentioned it to Paula, it was sorted out immediately
The room was quite basic but clean and comfortable. The food was fantastic, although we felt a bit pressured to eat early.
There were lots of chairs in the garden to sit and watch the waves, the beach was beautiful, but not much to do in the area. We were invited to go to a nearby beach to watch baby turtles being released into the sea.

Gorgeous Landscaping, Gorgeous Ocean Views - Best Staff Ever!

Our family of 6 adults stayed at the hotel-owned Beach House w/ 4-BRs, 3.5 BAs. The house is 50 feet from the hotel's oceanfront outdoor restaurant restaurant-bar at which we dined 5 of the 7 days of our stay. Property manager team of Mikey & Diana are superb human beings: They care deeply about making sure their Guests feel very welcomed, are super accommodating, and are pro-active in recommending and arranging awesome tours, securing car-van service, you name it. The hotel bar-grounds felt like Jimmy Buffet stayed here when he wrote "Margaritaville." Very laid back, unpretentious atmosphere with staff and guests alike all super friendly.
The hotel's location to major attractions is a huge plus. We can't wait to go back!
