Everything was really as close to perfect as one could hope. From check in, then our room was stunning, the view was even more stunning and the beach and pool were perfect. We enjoyed the cocktail hour and seafood appetizer buffet. Beautifully located, we will go back if we are in that area again. More

Don't care what other reviews said regarding this Resort, I loved every minute of it. Having had eight kids, I loved to be waited on and that is exactly what the staff at the Pelican Grand did for us. (No I did not bring our eight kids). From the friendliness of the housekeeping staff, through the lobby greeted by more... More

My sister and I took our parents to this resort. From the moment we called in to book the vacation to the very end of the vacation we had a wonderful experience.

This hotel was exceptional! The staff treated us like we were family and the accommodations were spacious and nicely decorated. We especially enjoyed eating ice cream on the veranda while sitting in the rocking chairs that overlooked the ocean. We had a special need case for our father and the staff went out of their way to accommodate him (including... More

Our second time returning to this hotel. We choose this hotel whenever we stay in Fort Lauderdale because it is one of the few hotels right on the beach. The rooms are nice.  I believe all are "ocean view." The suites have a separate sitting room with couch, chair, table, refrigerator, microwave and an additional TV. TV's are not yet... More

Think this used to be a Days Inn. If that's the case they did a great job taking this property to another level. Booked last minute for business. Had to stay under budget and wanted to stay on the beach for a night. Pelican Grand was able to do that for me. The hotel has a friendly staff and grounds... More

I am disappointed to read that you felt the hotel was not up to your standards. I can say that the hotel was never a day’s inn and was opened in 2005 as well... More

There are many things to like about the Pelican Grand such as its location right on the beach, the zero entrance pool (perfect for young kids), the lazy river, the ice cream shop, and the layout of the room to name a few. The service ranged from excellent (Ken in house keeping) and Ashley (front desk who also babysits) to... More
