We have been to Cayo Largo 7 times over the last 5 years, and wanted a change this year and so Sol Pelicano was our choice. Our check-in went smoothly, but our room was not what we expected and we were successful in changing it the next day, as we prefer the second level but omitted to request it in... More

We visited the resort in March. Fantastic Week. The service was absolutely fabulous, the workers were very friendly and hard working. We had an oceanview room and Loved it. However, the hotel could use a remodeling to the rooms and buildings. The beach is absolutely gorgeous. Will return on our next trip to Cuba.
