Pelican Bay Resort

Been coming here since 2001. We love the shaded pool, cozy cottages, deck chairs and dock. They are laid back in many ways that benefit the consumer. However in the last 2 years there have been a few things that could be improved. My biggest thing is the ice machine.The ice machine is gone! They even have the ice scoop still hanging on the wall but no ice machine. No promise of it's return, either.I love Pelican Bay Resort but please fix the ice situation. Great place for families and kids. Awesome pool and trees.

On the night of our arrival, the property lost power in a weather-related incident. The property is unattended, so there was no way to contact anyone other than by using the Booking message feature. We waited for some time to see if the power would be restored, but there was no progress. Oddly enough, the property had a generator running that powered the swimming pool and hot tub. Nothing else worked, though. We had to check into another hotel. I later contacted the electric company and they advised that the power was restored just after midnight; we would not have been able to wait that long. I understand that these things happen, but the property was absolutely unwilling to issue a refund for one day of our stay.The property is old, and it smells old when you enter the rooms. The carpet had not been cleaned for some time and there was a great deal of dirt and debris present. The bathroom had a sewage/septic tank odor for the entirety of our stay. Part of this could have been related to the first night I took a shower. I turned on the shower to let the water heat up and stepped out of the bathroom. When I returned, the entire room was flooded because the shower drain was clogged with an unspeakable filth. Luckily there was a plunger in the room, so I worked on the drain for ten minutes and got it to clear. The smell never dissipated, though. There is no housekeeping, you must strip your own beds and collect dirty linens, and they do not provide amenities such as toilet paper because they are now an AirBNB. There is no mention of this on the Booking site.The final night we were at the property there was no hot water. I should mention that I used the Booking message feature to notify the property of all of these problems--again, outside of normal business hours there is nobody there--but they did not respond until after I had checked out of the property. Do yourself a favor; choose a different property in Rockport. There are plenty of others available.

I love this place! We arrived late and had to leave early but the lady was VERY accomodating and took care of me via phone. The cabins and the mini-suites are so cute. I love that there are quiet hours. We were on the road for a ton of hours and it was nice to get into our room and everything was nice and quiet.

We had the most fun in a long time. The cottages were walking distance to the private fishing pier. The staff was all around friendly and very helpful. We loved it so much, we already booked for next year. Thank you to all that made our stay wonderful and memorable

Cute little cottages with a pool and hot tub. Each cottage has an assigned parking spot with a few spots for guests/additional cars. The 1 bedroom cottage I stayed in was very clean. The walk to the pier wasn't bad and definitely long enough for people to socially distance themselves. There are bbq pits at each cottage, but just didn't have enough time there to enjoy all the amenities appropriately. Only downfall is that it describes the one bedroom as being able to fit 5 adults even though it only has a bed and pullout sofa...so I'm not sure where the 5th adult is supposed to sleep. Other than that, good experience overall. I will keep this place in mind for future visits.

I recently stayed here and it was AMAZING!! They're so kind and so helping as well! The maids were exceptional on getting the things we needed for the pull out bed and the the extra towels and blankets!! The cabin was so clean and had everything we needed as well! I also left my apple watch there and they went out of their way to look for it along with shipping it back to my house. 100/10 service won't ever stop coming here!!

We love staying at pelican bay resort. We have stayed in both the hotel type rooms and the spacious cottages. The cottage is everything you need fridge, bedroom, pullout couch, your own bbq pit. The staff is always available and more than accommodating. Everyone is friendly, and if you need your privacy that is respected too. We caught tons of small speckled trout off the pier. The new lights are more than enough to draw the fish in and seems to be the best pier around.

We enjoyed our stay here this past weekend, it was not our first time here. The rooms had a lot of updates, was very clean which I really appreciate!! Please change out the American Flag that is tattered that was flying in the front of your property.

The perfect cottage getaway! The room was immaculately clean. Kitchen was truly fully stocked. Sponge, dish soap, and paper towels were already in room. Plenty of towels which is always great! Grounds were so clean. Pool and playground area were very well maintained. We spent lots of time fishing on the pier! Brought our 3 year old and they had a great kid friendly area with seating and wood siding about halfway down. The pier was by far one of the nicest piers I've use in Rockport. We can't wait to plan our next trip back!

Nice, quaint little cottages. Dated, decor and furnishing but well equipped. They have a little pool and a private dock on the water just a short walk away.
