Our stay at The Pelican Beach Resort was enjoyable. Our rooms were clean and comfortable. The grounds are small but nice. We appreciated having our own lounge chairs and umbrella in the garden as well as on the beach. The swimming was lovely, very relaxing in both the ocean and in the pool. As for the food, we only ate breakfast there once. It's a nice buffet, but expensive. I guess it's worth it if you're a big eater, but if you just want toast and coffee I wouldn't recommend it. The dinner menu was very expensive so we chose to have dinner elsewhere. The staff are really excellent! Super nice, helpful people at the front desk, staffing the bar, and cleaning the rooms. The downside: we assumed they would have a parking lot and they don't. Your choices are to risk parking on the street, if you can find a spot, or paying to park in their small garage. Also, there are not enough electrical outlets in the room. You can plug in the mini fridge or the TV, but not both at the same time. On the whole, the positives outweighed the negatives by a lot and it's the staff who are the best thing about Pelican Beach.

One thing to be aware of is that they charge hotel guests for the beach chairs which were 20€ each per day. The ‘gym’ is also outdoors, no air con and the equipment is in bad need of repair. There was one working treadmill, there was a set of 5kg dumbbells and I think a 1-3kg but really poor gym. Staff are super nice, rooms very clean, and the beach is beautiful. You do need a car to get around! And beware, very little on street free parking as the locals park at 7am for the beach! To park in the hotel underground carpark they charge hotel guests 15€ a day (I think this is what we paid) during July.

Nice resort but our party of 4 were not treated very well when we arrived at the hotel restaurant without a reservation. Put in the corner of another room and ignored for most of the evening. Food was expensive and not very good. Would recommend walking down the street to eat elsewhere. Good walkable location for accessing the beach though.

dull area

There is nothing around the hotel. There are no amenities. There are no stores around. There are only a few simple pizzerias. The area the hotel is located in is rather dull. The beachfront is the only good thing about the hotel.

Adult’s only hotel

From the moment we arrived, which was late, Selma at reception suggested go to the hotel restaurant eat relax & do check in after. She continued throughout our 8 nights to book restaurants taxis & more. The confusion of the sunbeds is, if you are staying in a suite you have the use of sunbeds & umbrellas in the garden & the beach. If you are in the regular rooms there is a daily charge. Simone was extremely professional & helped us with choice of local wine & couldn’t do enough to make our stay fabulous. The team at reception friendly helpful & happy. The beach man was curteous. Well done Pelican Beach Hotel.

I paid for a “beachfront” room and got a room on the second floor with barely no view of the beach. Davide insisted that it was beachfront. The rooms you pay for are subject to interpretation by the staff. Hotel needs a lot of updating. However, the beach is beautiful!

Very clean hotel with friendly staff. Lovely restaurant and bar area! Food was amazing and service superb! Lovely beach front location. Reserved area on the beach for hotel guests with sun loungers and umbrella’s at an additional cost. Pool area is very small. More sun loungers on the terrace would be beneficial. Those that were there were reserved for particular rooms. Limited facilities in the area.
