I had a perfect, relaxing few days that I've been raving to everyone about! Not only was the setting just what the doctor ordered, but the service from the staff was exceptional. I started keeping track of the individuals because they just kept mounting and I thought they deserved recognition. At the pool, we were served tremendously well by Nathan... More

Excellent location in Fort Lauderdale. Problems with special request regarding housekeeping system. The feature ice cream parlor out of commission for three days. However, Kimberly was extremely sorry for the inconvenience, she is a model employee and made me an excellent cappuccino.

We had the most amazing time at the Pelican Grand Beach Resort. We live in South Florida but this place is a true "find." The customer service in EVERY department is amazing!

We stayed here 3 days pre cruise, and had a really relaxing break here. You are right on the beach and everything is provided for you lounges, towels umbrellas. We had a King Ocean view suite which was a good size with a sitting area separated from the bedroom by a glass wall. The only complaint is that the door... More

Overall, we had a great trip. You can't beat being right on the beach. The beach is private, which is nice, and there are always lounges, umbrellas and towels available. The beach is quite small though, you can see quite a bit of erosion from hurricane Sandy. The steps down to the beach have not yet been repaired...hopefully this is... More

Great location right on the beach. From Hurricane Sandy, beach was a bit messy with fallen cement and debris that had not been cleaned up as of April, 2013. Food in restaurant was decent but costly. Towels in room were a bit too worn out for this level hotel. Charming hotel overall.

Let me preface my review by saying that my husband and I have been coming to the Pelican Grand long before it was the 'Grand' and it was just several two-story block buildings set on the beautiful Ft.
