Amazing hotel
- April 20, 2009
- Rated 5 of 5 by
a traveler from Travelocity.com
This hotel was by far the best one we saw in the Port Lucaya area. It had the most character and was just overall beautiful. It's not right on the beach but that wasn't a problem at all as we had access to the beach at the Westin and a ferry every hour took us to another resort where we had access to an amazing pool and beach.
Pelican bay's rooms was great, very spacios. The service was excellent. The pools were great.
Best coconut daiquiris ever!!
Pelican Bay beautiful but just okay....

This was my second trip to Pelican Bay and I was a little disappointed. Although the standard gardenview room was huge, the tub appeared filthy. I asked to have it cleaned and it was but it was permanently stained. The property is beautiful with three swimming pools and a jacuzzi. The staff is generally nice. I did have an unpleasant brush with the staff, however, in which two bartenders kept repeating "See ya!" in an unpleasant tone as if to dismiss me quickly.

The hotel is better than we expected. The location is great, and the people are friendly.
Pros:
-Great Location
-Nice view of ocean from room
-Free ferry to Taino Beach (place to go for water sports)
-Close to local shopping & retail shopping
-Walking distance to Casino
-Hotel offered free pastries in the morning, delivered to the room
-Offers free DVD player & DVD movies for guest to use
-Offered candles to guests (power went out over the island during our stay)
Cons:
-Cable tv signal was weak, very staticky
-Watch out for timeshare salespersons when inquiring on jetski/scooter/tour rentals
-The availability of the DVD player is scarce. We were unable to use it even after numerous requests
-International bazaar is no longer operational. Do not waste taxi fare travelling there
-Local restaurants automatically add gratuity despite overall slow island service(this can be attributed to overall laidback atmosphere of the island so it is expected).
I recommend the English Pub for a good meal. For entertainment, I recommend the Jet Ski Island Tour on Taino Beach.
really lovable

i stayed at that pelican resort hotel at lucaya together with my boyfriend for 5 days. it was very very nice. i expect always alot, so inform myself very good. and i can tell you will not be dissapointed if you choose the deluxe room. the room has alot of space and is very nice. the bed is comfortable and the bathroom is clean. they clean every day, what is very nice. the breakfast is o.k. its free and for that it is even great. i can tell you that we tried many restaurants around and the restaurant by the pool on the bayside at this hotel is the best. there fish and coconat sorbey are amazing!! if i would go back i would just eat there!!! the other restaurants have preatty same priceses but are for sure not that good!!
all in all we enjoyed staying there. very calm and very nice vewi too. you cant want more!

The things we liked most about Pelican Bay were the location and the price. The rooms are nice, although the bathroom vanities could be a little bigger. The Front Desk staff was friendly, but not particularly helpful. The head bellman, who doubles as a concierge, made our stay a success. He knows everything, and goes the extra mile every day. Find him, trust him, and have a great time!
