Property will be undergoing a much needed refurbishment. A lot of little things to address…we love the resort and have stayed countless times, but it is definitely time for them to improve and justify the nightly rate.

We loved our stay at Pelican Cove. It far exceeded our expectations. The floor in our room was a little sandy and the room could definitely use some updating, including a new, quieter AC unit. However, the beds were comfortable and our view was beautiful! We loved how we could walk over to Postcard Inn and use their hotel as well. We loved being right on the water and using the kyaks and paddleboards. My son loved the ping pong and cornhole. We will definitely be back!

Oh my, oh my! I had been wanting to return to this property for a long time. I stayed for mother's day in 2015 with my family and loved everything about this facility. Unfortunately the experience was a bit disappointing as the place is a bit run down. The AC unit in the room was set to 75 so the unit would stop running once it reached 75 in the middle of a summer night! Temps are reaching 105 degrees daily and we were not able to set the temp lower and for a good night rest. Also the water pressure in the shower was non-existent. It took forever for one person to shower and forget about washing/rinsing out your hair, it felt like a 2 hour shower just getting my hair wet. The king sized bed was very comfy but the pillows? they were an absolute joke. There were 5 "baby" pillows on our bed, could not even see them in a King size mattress. We requested "regular/standard" sized pillows from room service but those never arrived. The rinsing stations throughout the pool area did not work and unfortunately the huge floating inflatable trampoline was also no longer there. I did enjoy the amenities offered (kayak, paddle board, pool seemed clean also) and it was very peaceful. We were looking to relax so this was definitely a plus. There are no restaurants on property but the sister hotel next door (walking distance) does have a Starbucks and a Tiki Bar (also very run down). Hopefully management is addressing some of these concerns, I look forward to returning in the future.

Hotel is nice but it’s starting to need some TLC. We’ve stayed here in multiple occasions but it now feels like the staff is getting laid back on the maintenance. Two out of 3 Elevators were out of service (in case you can’t go up and down the stairs then this is not the place for you until it’s fixed).

Loved the property as the private beach and views are absolutely beautiful. I didn’t like the lack of amenities, the elevator was broken, the small restaurant by the pool opened late and had little to offer. They should have complimentary water and coffee in my opinion. The walk to postcard isn’t far but with little kids it’s also not that close. Views are amazing though so I would stay again.
