Pelican Eyes is the gold standard in resort style lodging in the SJDS area. The resort is beautiful with two pools and all the amenities you could want. I stayed in a habitacione, which is like a hotel room. attached to a case. The casas are set up so that they can be separated. If you had a large group... More

we had to 2 couples travelling together and we were put in 2 apartments but on the top block so quite along way from each other - up on different ridges of the hill - but when you are travelling together do you really want to climb hundreds of stairs to get together for a drink ? so they gave...

I was appalled by the treatment I received by the staff at this resort this past month (April 2013). My friend and I decided to spend the day in the pool which for a fee allows you to use their pool and have access to their bar. The first issue was with the admission price. When I called and spoke... More

Lots of steps - in fact! Up, up, and up. I counted 79 steps to the "casa" I eventually ended in halfway up to the upper infinity pools and Bistro La Canoa. Which are too many stairs for me in tropical heat of 36 degrees centigrade. - The hotel, however, offers shuttle bus service to the Canoa restaurant and upper... More

I really don't think you can go wrong with this property. This was my first trip to San Juan del Sur, and I wanted something with a projected higher level of service while I figured out the town. I believe I got it. I tend to be a sucker for the "welcome" services like the cool towel and the juice... More

We did not stay at Pelican Eyes, but walked up there from our hotel in town and paid $5 each to be able to spend the day at the pool. The infinity pool over looking the ocean was pretty amazing and I'd highly recommend a visit to this place. When you get there, just keep walking up the stairs, you... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at Pelican Eyes for three nights in April and we absolutely loved it. If you want to stay in the actual town of San Juan Del Sur, you will not find a better hotel than Pelican Eyes. The views are breathtaking, the pools are gorgeous and the casitas are fantastic. After extensive research on every... More

I'm going to keep this as brief as possible - which is difficult because it was probably the most polarizing place we've ever stayed - but I'll do so in a Pro/Con manner. PRO: * The property is gorgeous and their Casas are large, well built and have great views ** The pools are amazing - great views and just... More

Absolutely loved this hotel. The room was beautiful, French doors that opened up to a huge balcony with a view of the beach and the ocean. The room was spacious, the grounds are beautiful and the pools were lovely. My only reason for not giving 5 stars was that one night a wedding party was allowed to shoot fireworks right... More
