Wonderful and friendly describes the people who run the place. They are knowledgable about the local rest. and what to do, but the rooms are from the 50's and the toilet leaked and the air conditioner blew right in your face if you are sitting on the couch watching tv. It would have been a deal at $80 bucks but... more

This motel is in a attractive, peaceful Bayside setting. We stayed in the Dolphin room next to the reception desk, and had access to the 'beach' and jetty. I say 'beach' because it wasn't particularly sandy, and access to the water was from the motel's boat ramp. We sat out and watched the sun go down from the pier (the... more

Myself and my husband stayed at the Pelican Motel over the xmas period. We arrived xmas day so was looking for a location not too far from Miami so we could relax before xmas day was over, this is why we chose Key Largo. We hired a car with Hertz from Miami and it was a straightforward drive down. The... more

We just got back from 5 nights in the FL Keys. The first night we stayed at the Hungry Pelican. There was a big race going on in Miami and this is the closet we could find after our landing on Fort Lauderdale and heading towards Key West. We had read the mixed reviews and decided to write in. Our... more

We stayed at the Hungry Pelican during the NASCAR race weekend. It is clean and cozy (most of the rooms are small but we stayed in one of the larger ones on the water with a kitchen, living room & screened porch.) It just felt like we were going to roll off the bed because the room seemed to be... more

The room was comfortable but since we paid extra for a "murphy" kitchen (2 burners, dorm fridge, sink) we had planned to save some money and prepare a few meals. While there were 4 plates, we had 1 bowl, 1 tall glass, 1 short glass and minimal silverware and no cooking utensils. Several pieces of furniture were very poor (but... more

My husband and I spent three nights at The Pelican recently. It was very clean and quiet- new paint, no bugs and no musty old Florida smell. The staff was polite and helpful. The tropical storm coming in kept us from using the boats available. The only drawback was the bed which my husband compared to a taco. Also, we... more

I can't believe the people love this motel. We stayed at the Heliconia room and it was awful; the airconditioning made a lot of noise so we couldn't sleep, the room was very old and too small, we couldn't even put our luggage in it. I was bitten by a lot of bugs. So never again here! We annulated one... more
