Location, location, location! This gorgeous bed and breakfast is tucked away in a peaceful spot just far enough to escape traffic noise, yet still a-hop-and-a-skip to the beach, shopping, and fine dining! My boyfriend and I stayed in the spacious Pacific room which had a modern captain's decor of boat art. The step-up feather bed with feather comforter and pillows... more

Pelican Cove Inn is very nice with some very interesting rooms. Hosts were very pleasant, breakfast was excellent. We had a bit of a noisy neighbor with a loud TV, but things settled down early enough to sleep well. The location is a couple of blocks away from the water in a residential area, and it is a bit of... more

Pelican Cove is one of the best B&B's at which we have stayed in 28 years of travel. Owner Nancy prepared and served delicious hot breakfasts over the five days of our stay. She provided excellent travel advice and suggestions about local restaurants. The room (Balboa) was comfortable and exceptionally clean. The Inn's location was ideal for roaming up and... more

We had three nights at the the Pelican Cove Inn staying in the Carlsbad room with its magnificent Captain's bed. (It has to be seen to be believed). Having not stayed in a b&b before I was not sure if I would feel comfortable but we had a wonderful time. Every room has its own entrance so you are not... more

Perfect location for watching the sunset beachside. Nancy (the innkeeper) had lots of ideas about where to eat or where to go for the best sunset views while sipping a glass of wine. Very clean accomodations. Great breakfast. Friendly, comfortable, relaxing. Great getaway. more

We can verify that the Inn is EXCELLENT. Our room was delightful and the facility / grounds are wonderful. We were able to park off street, enjoy the... more

Nancy did a GREAT job of making our work team (5 people) all feel right at home. We had four rooms for two nights - all lovely - and spent an entire day working at the table on the downstairs patio with no distractions. Her breakfasts are among the best I've ever had, and I've stayed at many B&Bs. She... more

My daughter and I stayed at the Inn the last weekend in March and had a great time. Nancy is very friendly and makes you feel at home. We stayed in the Laguna room. I'm looking forward to returning and trying one of the other rooms. We walked into town for dinner on Friday and Saturday nights. Went to the... more

My husband and I stayed here for our 1 year anniversary in the Pacific Room. The 2 person tub was amazing, the room is quite spacious, the four-poster bed is VERY comfortable, and the color scheme is various shades of blue and white, with nautical touches. This place is an easy 2 block stroll to the beach and is in... more
