I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked this place. upon reading earlier reviews, I got a so-so feeling about the Pelican Beach Resort. But I was amazed when we got to our room. Everything looked new from the furniture to the paint. all the rooms face the ocean and they were all huge! I don't know the true... More

Having stayed in South Beach for 2 nights we decided to spend out last night in Fort Lauderdale. We drove up and just went into a few hotels to ask the price. We loved this hotel immediately. After a friendly chat with the two ladies on reception we were told we would be upgraded to a very nice room. We... More

We stayed at this resort for the second time in January and were just as pleased this time around. The rooms are well appointed, immaculate and the views from our room were lovely. The pool, while not as luxurious as some resorts, was better than average and the "Lazy River" is a fun option. The beach was always clean with... More

My husband and I stayed at this resort for 4 days. I have to say, the resort itself is lovely. The pool, the rooms, the beach awesome! One thing that needs to improve is the staff. And, if they reading they should take it to heart. First off, the front desk is not very helpful doesn't like to help with... More

This was a great hotel for our family. We got a suite with two queen beds and a small sitting room overlooking the Atlantic. Service was great! They had laundry facilities available, cheap, which was a big bonus. The room service was good. The kids loved the river pool and the beach was great. Nice location for us, as we... More

I called the hotel directly to make a reservation for 2/4/07-2/8/07, and was given the same AAA rate for each night. After being given a confirmation number and told that a one night stay charge would be charged to my credit card, I took it that we had sealed a reservation. The following morning the front desk manager, Marie called... More

We stayed at this hotel for two nights, had originally booked for five but when we arrived and realized how far away from everything was we left early, We had to pay a full night early departure to do this, but found it worth it. So when you book be sure you want to stay the entire duration. The rooms... More

When we arrived at the tourist info in Fort Lauderdale, we were told that the Pelican was the nicest place to stay in the area. I had already seen the reviews on tripadvisor, so I knew what the accomodations were. It is a beautiful newer hotel/resort situated directly on the beach. No expense was spared in building this lovely hotel.... More

We stayed at the Pelican Beach resort right after Christmas through the New Year, a total of 10 nights. Overall I will say we had a good time. We liked being on the beach (what was left of the beach, but not the hotels fault). The kids liked the lazy river (although very small). They had a wonderful selection of... More

Agree that this hotel could have better staff service. However, I must say the concierge was very helpful and enthusiastic. Yes, the location is great. Literally right on the ocean, but it is a bit north of lauderdale. However, Galleria mall is very close by and i recommend you eat there as the food (even the coffee) at the hotel... More
