Ratings and Reviews of The Resort at Pelican Hill

9.4 user rating

Celebrating my wife's birthday led us to choose Pelican Hill for a luxurious staycation, and it exceeded expectations. FIVE STARS. Ahead of our arrival, they fulfilled our request for a microwave and surprised us with a delightful chocolate cake, complete with a personalized note for my wife. Transportation in luxurious Mercedes SUVs around the resort added to the exceptional experience. The staff's personalized service, addressing us by name throughout our stay, was a thoughtful touch. The privacy of the bungalows, free from the typical hotel layout, was highly enjoyable. Our time at Pelican Hill was truly remarkable, and we're already eager for our next visit.
This resort was amazing and top quality. The bungalow room was so spacious and clean. The service was top grade, the resort was impeccable and stunning. The shuttle service to Crystal Cove and back was also a nice addition. Highly recommend.
We stayed for an Anniversary getaway. Would absolutely return. It was beautiful, very comfortable & the service was top notch. The bed was the most comfortable bed we’ve ever slept in. 5 stars on everything!
