As a seasoned traveler with very discriminating taste, I was completely overwhelmed and amazed at how outstanding this resort was. The rooms were spectacular and had every necessary amenity one could ask for. The service was impeccable, from the moment you arrived until after you departed, every staff member in the resort recognized you and greeted you by name at... more

Excellent resort! The room was spacious and was quite luxurious. It was very hard to leave and we look forward to our next visit more

We stayed here as we won a trip in a competition for a couple of nights stay here. It is one of the most incredible hotels I have ever stayed at - everything is very new there and beautifully styled, the bungalow rooms are lovely with huge bed, bathroom and balcony. Round pool is lovely with incredible views and was... more

Stayed in a bungalow suite at Pelican Hill and was thoroughly impressed by the resort in every way. Service exceeded all expectations and the physical beauty of the grounds, pool, golf course was stunning. Our spa therapists were very knowledgeable - some of the best I have experienced - and made us feel very pampered. The menu at the Coliseum... more

The property is really beautiful, the rooms and their private patios are exceptional, and the spectacular circular pool itself might be a reason to visit. But at these prices, the service issues actually became kind of comical. We had booked, and twice confirmed, a couples' massage with two female therapists, only to be escorted (once in our robes, after relaxing... more

We decided to splurge on for my hubby's b-day. He wanted to play golf, and we hadn't been back since the property was remodeled. We knew going into the weekend that we would be spending a pretty penny to stay here (I'm writing this from our "bungalow"), and that was more than fine, however, mediocre food, hotel staff issues, layout... more

Pelican Hill is, for better or worse, probably the most extravagant, over-the-top resort in the US. On this stay we were in a 3 bedroom villa which is really more comparable to a house than any sort of hotel room. It was very nice, with a private patio, private garage, full kitchen, butler service etc. HOWEVER, you have to drive... more

The Resort at Pelican Hill really is one of the most wonderful resorts in the US - more like 6 star luxury!! Unlike so many dated high rise towers or the familiar layout of so many hotels, this resort really is a breath of fresh air. The Italian styled village layout with the wonderful olive trees etc really makes this... more

We went on a family vacation with our 20 and 24 year old and stayed in the south villas. Much more luxurious than a Four Seasons. The beds are incredibly comfortable. Enormous flat screen TVs with every amenity you could imagine. The view of the ocean and Catalina Island from the villa terrace took our breath away. We played both... more
