Hola WayLin, it was great to get to know you over the holidays specially since eventually we'll be neighbors. Happy Hour is definitely a tradition that will carry on at the Barefoot Saloon, who knew running an inn and bar could be so much fun. :-) New Years Eve would not have been the same without you. Thanks for the... More

The Diving Pelican Inn is an excellent place to stay when visiting La Ceiba. It is family-owned, the rooms are extremely nice and comfortable, the food is excellent, there is a pool, it is right on the beach, and everyone is very friendly and helpful. You can sign up for a day trip to Cayos Cochinos. For those of you... More

We loved the Diving Pelican Inn. Michelle and Adrea are amazing people and were more than accomodating during our stay. Michelle really helped us out by watching our van on our visit to the bay islands. The beds were super comfy, the food was delicious! and the company was great. The best hot wings we've had in central america. We... More

If you enjoy the mountains and the beach, this is your spot! It rests along the coast of La Ceiba, with views of spectacular diving location Cayos Cochinas only a boat ride away. All the while, you have breathtaking mountain views coming from the other side, and the most incredible natural hot springs only 5 minutes away. Michelle is quite... More

We stayed at the Diving Pelican Inn on our way to the Bay Islands. Wow! The Diving Pelican Inn is beautiful, relaxing, and comfortable. Those things alone make it a winning destination in our book. But, what makes it truly unbeatable is the personal attention from the owners. Michelle and Andrea are the best! They are delightful and attentive, going... More

We found the Diving Pelican to be a wonderful get-away. The owner Michel and her daughter Andria are great people. They did anything they could to ensure our stay was exactly what we were looking for. Between the food, the sun, the pool, the warm Caribbean beach and the company it was an amazing vacation.

We stayed one night at the diving pelican inn after spending 2 weeks getting muddy in the rainforest. It was such a treat to stay our last night in Honduras in such a clean, well appointed and lovely small b&b-like hotel. After backpacking around, this hotel was the perfect stay before our flight home for the air conditioning, a hot... More
