We usually stay at a nearby inn on Moonstone Beach but they were booked so we stayed at Pelican for the first time last weekend and we are so glad we did. We got a mini suit which was pretty large, newly renovated and very comfortable with a fireplace and great ocean view. Breakfast and afternoon wine and cheese sampling... More

We've been staying at the Pelican Inn for the last decade, perhaps a dozen times. I am aware as many have noted of the delayed maintenance issues that had been growing, I am pleased with the new owner's attention to repairs and redecorating. However, I am so disappointed in the loss of charm and elegance. We always stay in the... More

Cambria is a good location for stopping to see/walk/drive the coast, Hearst Castle and go inland too. Pelican Inn and Suites must have some rooms not overlooking the ocean but ours did and it's wonderfully close. Huge room with fire in room at the click of a button. Facilities in room and easy parking. Huge breakfasts especially good for those... More

Cambria is such a beautiful town and this hotel made our trip a wonderful stay. The staff was very friendly, ocean views were great, breakfast and wine/cheese tasting were enjoyed . I am looking forward to my next stay.

I've hesitated writing about the Pelican Inn for a while! We discovered it around 2002 and have been back 3 times! I just didn't want it to get too popular! All the rooms we stayed in were individually decorated...one time I had a chance to walk through when the Inn had all the rooms open and was surprised at the... More

We loved everything about the Pelican Inn & Suites in Cambria. The room was absolutely perfect with a gorgeous ocean view. It was tastefully decorated and included lots of nice amenities such as a fridge, microwave, robes, etc. We enjoyed the hot breakfast buffet each morning and the wine and cheese in the evening. What a nice touch! Every staff... More

A very nice hotel right at the beach. Here you´ll get the real pacific feeling the second you step on your balcony or on your little garden-deck....the fog over the dunes, the pacific grawling in the background, a room with a fireplace...just great. Wish we could have stayed any longer... The breakfast was perfect! Fresh fruites, all kinds of cereal... More
