Pelican Bay at Lucaya

Old Style Plantation Type with excellently remodeled rooms. Service was mostly excellent--front desk VERY pleasant; upkeep of rooms fell a bit in that toilet paper was not restored promptly. The first room I had was old and smelly with a loud and leaky air conditioner. The second was loads better, but shouldn't have cost $50 a night more. It was one of the noisiest places in the area. One day, trying to enjoy the quiet pool, there was not only construction going on, there were lawnmowers and leaf blowers in a high density area despite the fact that the workers knew we were in a class which required quiet. Not cool at all. The Bones Bar had excellent Aussie meat pies. Sabor has decent food but is VERY poorly run, taking far, far too long for their service. Elmo's has OK Italian. Flying Fish is the best food but they steal your money, running your card twice--patronize but beware, and keep your receipts.

Stayed with family and friends and absolutely loved this place. Clean rooms, super friendly staff and the hotel was in the perfect location adjacent to the Marketplace. Food was very good at Sabor but the breakfast buffet needs some work. We loved Zorba’s for breakfast just a short walk away. Pools are very nice and the Flying Fish restaurant is amazing. Bones was fun for happy hour drinks and you can’t beat that view. Huge shout out to VanDyke at the Sabor bar for sharing stories and the history of the island. He is a HUGE asset to the staff. Just a great guy and so kind and human. I’d go back in a minute just to sit at his bar. Highly recommend and you can’t beat the room rate. Great value!

This is a nice hotel with a very pleasant staff and adjacent to a small tourist village with some nice restaurants. The rooms were newly done since the terrible hurricane that decimated Freeport. They were clean, spacious, nicely laid out and with a lovely view from the balcony. The furnishings are comfortable utilitarian and showed little sign of wear and tear. The bathroom was well lit, nice sized and with a shower that was a cinch to turn on and use. Bones Bar has great beer. We recommend the locally brewed Bones Ale. The breakfast buffet is a bit disappointing without fruit on 2 days and never any yogurt. Dinner at Sabor was excellent as they cooked our fresh catch perfectly. (Why the restaurants throughout the island refuse to serve tap water is shrouded in mystery. Apparently there was some salt intrusion but this is now corrected. Could this be a ploy to improve the bottom line). This hotel is close to being 4 stars But to achieve a better rating I would ask for cleaner elevators, utensils and dish towels and some kitchen soap for the small kitchenette. A better buffet breakfast would also help. We look forward to visit again next year with these improvements in mind.

3 seniors visited end of April. We loved staying in the suites. Balconies overlooking the canal, very comfortable for a 7 night stay. Entire facility was very clean & well cared for. Loved the grounds, ferry to Taino Beach, 3 pools, & location with all the nearby attractions. Sabor was great. All the staff from housekeeping, lobby staff, restaurant staff & grounds keepers were so nice, welcoming & helpful. Side note loved the fragrance in the lobby! Well done! If you need transportation we highly recommend 3B's Taxi & Tours.

The Wife and I just spent several days at Pelican Bay Hotel April 2nd through April 7th 2024 . Hotel is centrally located able to visit Licayan Market place and plan several excursions . The onsite restaurant Sabor is excellent with great service as well as great service from hotel staff . We enjoyed use of the onsite swimming pools daily and I would recommend that anyone visit check out the onsite aquarium setup by Sabor restaurant to attract local tropical fish it is outstanding plus enjoyed the company of the local lizards by the pool daily
