    The gorgeous ocean views and stunning architecture took my breath away! 🌅 The service was top-notch, making every moment special. Unfortunately, the room was a bit dated and we had some noise issues from the nearby road.

    would come again

    The ocean bungalow king was super comfy with air conditioning, a nice balcony, and a cozy sofa. Room service was on point, delivering delicious meals. The spa facilities were amazing too, with relaxing massages and a steam room. Plus, the views of the sunset from the restaurant were just breathtaking across the horizon.

    friendly staff
    stunning views
    lack of activities
    little empathy
    diminished experience

    The Ocean Bungalow King exceeded expectations with its stunning views and the luxurious feel of the space. Staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, providing impeccable room service. However, activities for children were lacking, and there seemed to be little empathy towards guests facing issues during their stay. While canapés were a delight, the overall lack of engaging family activities diminished the experience.

    crispy bacon
    top-notch service
    serene bungalows
    lack of empathy
    burnt food

    Oh, the bacon was a game-changer! You haven’t lived until you’ve tried their perfectly crispy, golden hash of flavor. Plus, the service was top-notch, making every moment feel special, and the bungalows were so serene—like your own private paradise!

    While the reservation folks could use a sprinkle of empathy, the real bummer was the dinner mishap. burnt starters that made us raise eyebrows but still had us chuckling about it. The vibes were good enough to keep it from completely ruining our night.

    Stunning Ocean Views and Exceptional Service

    I recently stayed in a Bungalow Two Queen Beds Balcony Ocean View for 4 nights and was blown away by the breathtaking ocean views and the top-notch service from the staff. They were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. However, I did notice that the turn-down service was only offered on the last night, which felt odd given the luxury experience we were expecting.

    friendly staff
    gorgeous architecture
    beautiful landscape
    noisy room
    subpar food

    Service during our 4-night stay was commendable, with friendly staff greeting us throughout the resort. The landscape and architecture provided a beautiful and exotic setting that truly stood out. However, our experience was marred by noise from the highway near our room and subpar food quality on one occasion, which didn’t align with the premium price point. All in all, the venue’s beauty and service make it worth considering again, despite a few hiccups.

    noise issue

    My stay at Pelican Hill was enchanting, surrounded by magnificent grounds that echoed Roman architecture. Each encounter with the staff felt warm, enhancing my experience. While the room had some noise issues, the stunning views and exceptional service made it worthwhile.

    great room but limited kids activities

    We loved our spacious Garden Bungalow King. The sea view from our room was stunning and added to our relaxing stay.

    There weren't enough kids activities for family engagement.
