I have stayed there numerous times. They always give me a room upgrade. I love the property and how almost all the units face the beach. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The succulent garden is well kept and beautiful. The parking can get dicey and the furniture in the rooms need to be replaced but other than that its a great value and a great place to stay. Love it.

Couple Getaway

It was a nice hotel. The bed was comfortable and it was right across from the beach. There's no breakfast offered at the hotel, but there's place that offers breakfast and coffee nearby. The only problem was housekeeping didn't do a great job with a couple of small things. Overall it was a nice stay.

No Glam Just Comfort

My husband and always stay at Pelican. Love the convenience of the hotel and the sunsets are amazing. We try and book the patio rooms for a better view. Worth the extra money. However, the rooms are just OK. No frills. The beds and pillows are extra comfy. Rooms seem outdated and the bathrooms never seem to be cleaned enough! The front desk, Carmen, is always extra helpful and a sweetheart too.

Good Stay

We always have an enjoyable time at pelican Inn. They are always friendly and will help you with whatever you need help with. Clean. The only thing is they do not have a breakfast anymore. I think that is a big drawback. Also, they could hang rods next to the sink for hand towels to be placed instead of having to place them on the countertop.

I stayed in a no-view room, which is fine for me. I like this location nice because of its convenient access to Moonstone Beach, Cambria and Heart Castle. Easy parking. Clean rooms, reliable Wi-Fi, and a Fireplace for heat, A coffee maker, mini refrigerator and microwave are super convenient when you pack food for a road trip. Staff were helpful and nice. I’m sure I’ll stay here again.

This property far exceeded our expectations. We had a room with a full view of the ocean, which was directly across the street. Just gorgeous. The room itself was a very good size and had a working fireplace, which was really nice to have during the cooler month of January. There was an additional portable heater (stored in the closet) which was also nice to have when we say in front of the open window to hear the waves while watching sunset/sunrise. The staff was fantastic! From the moment I was greeted in the lobby during check-in (by an amazingly kind, helpful, and very personable woman) I knew it was going to be a favorite memory. Every interaction with other staff members was positive; everyone was so kind. We will definitely be returning.

The property was experiencing a new roof on one of the properties which affected our stay. The workers (no shade on them) started at 7ish. Then there was a power outage in Cambria. We went to the lobby hoping to buy wine to brighten the night only to find out that the bottles were $50. Management should have discounted these for the inconvenience and to keep the mood light.
