I have never read the comments, and felt that I had to weigh in with mine. This was not our first trip to Pelican Bay, nor the last. The most memorable was Christmas 2007, with our two grown children and our grandchildren. I put up my 'Charlie Brown' Christmas tree; opened gifts on Christmas Eve; and Santa even found us... more

The only problem I had was we did not get what we were looking for, but I can't say that was the fault of the Pelican Bay staff. So the main advice I would give visitors is to be very specific about your needs and how the accomodations meet them. Because I was very busy at the time, I asked... more

Almost everything about Pelican Bay is very nice. The cottages are cute, nice kitchen equipment, very clean. The hot tub has amazing water pressure and the pool area is lovely. I went with friends and slept on the sofabed which was pretty uncomfortable. The blanket they provided was very thin, worn and icky feeling. Fortunately I had one of my... more

We just returned from a 5 night stay at the Pelican Bay resorts. We had a great time, I cannot comment enough about the great experience that we had. We stayed in a mini suite by the pool, it was great. We did look at the cottages, which were extremely nice, but since I was not going to cook, we... more

The resort features some motel rooms, a bunch of "cottages" and I think a larger house for rent. We rented a one bedroom cottage for Labor Day weekend and were a little disappointed. Overall, the property was pretty clean and the kitchen with full size appliances was well equipped including a dishwasher. But the bedroom was much smaller than it... more

As I sit ouside of my mini cottage suite by the pool, I decided to share my experience at the Pelican Bay Resort. We arrived 3 days ago to the beautiful community of Pelican Bay . Upon entering the driveway we were welcomed with the picturesque scenery of multi colored cottages and wind swept oak trees. We vacationed in suite... more

My husband and I are just back from a long 3 day weekend at Pelican Bay, and we were very pleased with our experience. I was a little concerned about the negative comments (expecially the smoking), but was happy that management responded to the negative comments. Obviously they are reading these reviews and are aware of their value. I only... more

This review is very late in coming but in March of this year my mother, my two children, and I stayed at the Pelican Bay Resort in Rockport, Texas for a few days during Spring Break. When I made the reservation several months ahead I made it clear that I wanted a non-smoking cabin and I was assured that this... more

I want to respond to the smoke in the room. I am the owner of Pelican Bay Resort and we do strive to please our customers. I do find it odd that the person who posted the smoke in the room complaint came in March and posted this in July??? It is difficult to pin point where the problem was,...

Things you need to know. Rooms are nice, small but nice. Sleep 2-3 max. Most employees are friendly. The owners not so much, but they were not around as often. Great to have a pier right behind the property. Close to the waterfront area where the best food is. Go to Capt. Bennys and The Diner to eat. Couple of... more

Management response from

I am Laura Denham, managing owner of Pelican Bay Resort. I am sorry if someone thinks I am not very nice, but not around much so that is good. Actually, I am around quite a bit and I would never intentionally be rude to any guest. I must have been remiss in explaining to my staff and them explaining to...

Quiet, comfortable and clean. A cottage for two set amid trees between the main road (and even that is pretty quiet) and the coast road. If you walk through the grounds and cross the coast road at the back you will find the private fishing pier. We are not fishermen but it is a nice spot to while away an... more
