Reading a few of the somewhat negative reviews I was a little worried. Not to worry this place is beautiful and service top notch. Food is a little pricier compared to down town, but in essence I can say you get what you pay for, in a little better food, great service, and a great view. Don't get me wrong... More

We did not stay or eat here; just went for the drink and sunset which was great. Did look at the food menu and it was pricey. It's a very short two block walk up from center of town. Our Mojito and wine were good and the views tops. Watch our for the wind gusts as my drink and water... More

Rented a casa with another couple. Truly a home away from home. Pleanty of space two baths.The walk is a bit challanging, even to get to the pools and upper restaurant. We didn't mind though. Had most meals in town. Overall a good time. Not many high end lodging choices in town. More

We had a nice experience at Pelican Eyes. We were celebrating a birthday and they reserved the best table in the restaurant for us. The server even sang happy b`day solo. The food was good, not great. Our room was awesome (Casa Brazil). Views were incredible! Beds comfy and clean. Maybe a little too pricey. Pool by restaurant was a... More

This resort is outdated. The facilities are fine, but not anything spectacular & certainly do not warrant the prices. The place is more like a condo/country club. More

Booked using Groupon, and got a pretty good deal. The staff here is super, super friendly. Best sunset view in the city on their double-decker infiniti pool. The whole property is beautiful. Gorgeous actually. The front desk can easily accomodate whatever you need with drivers to take you wherever you want to go (at a charge). Loved it here and... More

Breathtaking views... yes... Location... great. ...if you don't mind bed bugs! I stayed at the Pelican Eyes Resort and Spa in Feb 2012 with some friends, and the beds in the Casa we had booked was completely infested with bedbugs -- to the point where we could visibly see the bugs crawling on the mattress. The staff at the reception... More

Pelican Eyes is in the heart of the city of SJDS but the layout is a complex of villas and buildings built in the hills. The advantage of this is you are very close to the restaurants, bars, clubs & beach while at the same time enjoying beautiful sunset vistas. The disadvantage of this layout is there are steep stairs... More

My wife and I took our 2nd honeymoon after 22 years of marriage and chose Pelican Eyes after hearing about it from friends. The staff and amenities are truly amazing. We took a romantic 4 hour private sailing trip on a Sunday afternoon with a crew of three to an out of the way beach that we ended up having... More
