The beach rules of this resort is out of control. We were not provided the beach rules until check in, the chair people set up 5 rows of chairs covering the complete beach area and you are not allowed on the wet sand in front of the front row of their chairs. There is security set up on the beach, to make everyone move. I’m a panhandle regular and have never experienced anything like this before. Also, no canopies are allowed, any umbrella with sandbags cannot be used. ...read full review

Pelican Beach Resort offers a comfortable and clean stay with nice rooms and a great location. The proximity to the beach is one of its best features, as guests can walk easily to the beautiful beach where the water looks as if in international waters. The resort has heated pools, an indoor pool, and a hot tub, which many guests enjoy. The on-site cafe provides great breakfast options, and there are reasonably priced food and drinks at the beach, although some visitors find them a bit expensive. The chair rental staff are friendly and entertain guests, especially for social media reels. Guests appreciate the walkway that makes reaching the water easier, avoiding deep hot sand, and find the location convenient for visiting nearby attractions like Harborwalk, outlets, restaurants, and grocery stores.
Some guests have reported issues with the beach setup, including limited access to the Gulf view and restricted seating areas. Elevator lines can be long, especially for those on higher floors, leading many to use the stairs. The resort's amenities and location make it a popular choice despite concerns about smoking areas and security. Overall, Pelican Beach Resort remains a favored spot for visitors seeking a pleasant beachside experience and a relaxing vacation.
