The Pelican is a unique quiet harbor hotel. It is right next door to UNEXSO divers which was my purpose for the trip. The restaurant is first rate as other travels would come to the Pelican from their hotels just for dinner. If you're a beach lover or want children activities, this is not the place for you as you have to take the water taxi to get to a beach.

OK hotel close to everything

Centrally located, decent hotel. Could use a renovation, especially the lobby. Rooms are a little outdated. Every bar/resteraunt is ridiculously over priced. The bad part of the whole stay was the island itself. Since the hurricanes hit, the main hotels and Casinos are still closed. There’s literally nothing to do besides eat, drink, and snorkeling. We were ready to go back home after the 3rd day. Maybe once the government helps get the island back up and running things will be better. Don’t hold your breath though. Locals said the new government is so messed up and corrupted and doesn’t care. People were nice though. Go to Nassau instead if you want to go to the Bahamas.

The hotel bed was sagging in the center so we couldn't sleep. I asked for 1 king bed and we had 2 full size. When walking barefoot around the room on the tile, my feet turned black.

WORST STAY EVER.

AWFUL. Front desk staff (Stephan) so unfriendly. Didn't go over any of the amenities. OMG the room. Just awful. Rust around the tub, light bulbs out, dust so thick in the room, the curtains old and look like they had water damage, the tv didn't know they still had that kind. It was awful experience. The maintinance guys were more friendly than the front desk staff.

Bahamian style hotel close to activities

Pros: Nice relaxed atmosphere of a smaller resort.
Cons: Office seemed to be under-staffed; needed to be very patient to get any type of service - even a bottle of water.
Location: Great restaurants, three pools, SCUBA diving charters, fishing boat charters, parasailing, and sail boat charters all next door
Location is very convenient and close to Lucaya market and many nice restaurants. Scuba diving, fishing, and other sport activities are an easy walk away. Even though the hotel is not on the beach; the hourly water taxi to Taino Beach is very convenient.
