My recent stay at the Pelican Hotel was nothing short of delightful. The location is truly exceptional — perfectly situated to enjoy the very best of the area. From the moment I arrived, the warm and friendly atmosphere made me feel completely at ease. The service was impeccable. Both room service and management were consistently professional and courteous, with special appreciation to Oscar, whose attentiveness and genuine hospitality made a lasting impression. The dining experience was outstanding. Every meal was a pleasure, but the fried octopus deserves special mention — perfectly prepared and absolutely unforgettable. The rooms themselves were a highlight: comfortable, thoughtfully appointed, and each with its own unique design that adds charm and character to the stay. The complimentary cocktails were another memorable touch — expertly made and thoroughly enjoyable. Overall, my time at the Pelican Hotel was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I look forward to returning and will gladly book again without hesitation.

From the moment I arrived and spoke to the manager, Oscar, I felt like this was going to be a great place to stay. It didn’t disappoint with the rest of the staff being very helpful and attentive. I will be returning with my wife for a vacation purely down to how Oscar treated me during my stay. Thank you Oscar and the rest of the team. What a great hotel in South Beach!!!
