We loved our stay at Pelicano Inn and can’t wait to return next year. The staff is absolutely fantastic! The grounds and beach are beautiful.

🇨🇦 Solo senior single. Room was spotless. Water in the shower was hot. I appreciated the staff’s kindness and willingness to problem solve, as opposed to passing judgment, when I lost my key or any requests that were made. Appreciated the included breakfasts and servers recommendations. The staff worked as a team to make you feel at home.

Pelicano Inn is a great place to stay. The staff is awesome! The room was spacious, did not have ocean view, but we were close enough to the ocean and would go up to the gym and have the whole terrace to watch the ocean. The ocean was not clear, but we would see it clearing up everyday... in a couple of weeks it should be zargazo free. The breakfast was awesome! Isaac is a great server! Place is very well situated. In the middle of everything, but also quiet enough to have a good night sleep. Everything is walking distance. It is not a luxurious hotel, but it is a great one! It was the Perfect Place for our couple's getaway.

It’s well situated, but TV did not work and no parking which you have to pay extra. They offered breakfast and thing that it made it special was that they fix you a box with sandwich, apple and a bottle of water to take for early excursions.
Marleni, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel is in the perfect location right off 5th ave. Very convenient if you're into the night life as there are 2 well known bars at the corners of the ave. The staff were all very lovely and super helpful. The food was amazing!! I do wish they had a pool but that is just a personal preference and doesn't take away from the hotel. The room itself was spacious and comfortable. Definitely would recommend and would stay here again!

4/10 Fair

Good: on beach, WiFi worked, air conditioning worked and there was hot water in shower Bad: no TV, sheets on bed were stained ( but supposedly clean, I guess they don’t use bleach), No BLANKETS, just sheets, No black out curtains, Outside noise was very loud in room, and I asked if we could move to another room, and they said nothing was available. No hair dryer, Made to order breakfast was not made to my order since they did not understand English well enough. They told us we would also have bread, but the size of buns were barely larger than the jam samples. Our second morning there was a cockroach lying upside down on the floor wiggling its legs, so we flushed it down the toilet. You cannot flush toilet paper down toilet ( yes I know it is Mexico, but other resorts you can flush toilet paper down).

The hotel is older in architecture but is well kept, clean and comfortable. The retro vibe works and offers a quiet retreat away from crowds, bars and restaurantals. The location however is great as you are literally steps away from all the action. The staff at the front desk were friendly and very willing to assist and ensure my stay was comfortable. The waiters at the restaurant were also cool and professional. My only disappointment was the beach as it was full of seaweed. The hotel doesn't have controll over this as it affected all the hotels on the strip as well.

8/10 Very good

Great location and wonderful staff! The hotel is in a quiet, convenient location, which made for a very relaxing stay. The standout was definitely the staff—everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially during breakfast, which was delicious and well-prepared. While the furniture and room decor feel dated and could use an update, everything else was very good. Not quite a 5-star experience due to the room interiors, but the service and overall atmosphere more than made up for it.
