Pelican Beach Hotel

We stayed here 6 nights, and we had a rental car. The location is very good, close to the beach. The staff was invariably friendly and helpful. Gracie really stepped up and rescued us when we foolishly did not realize until the day prior to coming here that the last ferry would leave the same time as our United flight landed. She helped with getting a private ferry and a car rental. It is great that the barracuda bar and restaurant is on location; perfect for an evening drink or dinner. We ate here twice and liked the food a lot. The pasta was very well prepared and the grilled snapper sandwich was fresh and tasty. I saw some reviewers complaining about the food: but everything we ate was freshly prepared and tasty. Perhaps the cheese burger, which I did not try, feels more bland since it is probably frozen meat. I didn’t try the breakfast but the macchiato and the espresso were top notch. Our room was very nice. Yes, this is not a luxury hotel (and they make that clear on the website) and the bathroom is certainly dated, but the room was quiet, clean, and comfortable. Finally, if you spend several days on the Caicos islands you really should rent a car. And it was one thing that was not much more expensive than in the US. The car allows you to go to some other great beaches and restaurants.

This little hotel tucked away in Whitby, North Caicos is a dream. Highly recommend staying here. You will be off the beaten path but close to the hotel restaurant and bar. The beach is spectacular and steps from your room. Grace is a wonderful manager and Wilinise is a fantastic server at the restaurant. The Pelican Beach Hotel is a local gem! We will be back for sure!

I stayed here for five nights in early January. On the plus side, the location is indeed superb—right on the beach—and most of the staff were genuinely friendly. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives ended. The owner, whom we met on the last day, wasn’t friendly at all—no smiles, no asking how our stay was going, and no “safe trip” wishes when we left, which felt quite cold. The room itself wasn’t properly cleaned—beyond finding a dirty makeup-stained towel, the floor had black hair everywhere and clearly hadn’t been swept well. The food was a major letdown: everything tasted like it came straight from the freezer, from breakfast through dinner. Given the isolated location, you’re pretty much stuck eating on-site unless you rent a car or pay around $200 round-trip for a taxi to go anywhere else. Also, be warned: the beach directly in front of the property is not the classic calm Caribbean water you might expect. Because this part of North Caicos is exposed to the Atlantic Ocean currents, the water was rough and unswimmable—at least when we were there. Add in the sargassum seaweed that they never cleaned up, and about 80% of the beach was unusable. On top of that, no one warned us about the sand flies, and I ended up covered in itchy bites for days afterward. For the price we paid, I expected a lot more care and basic maintenance. In short: lovely location, but a lot of preventable issues. I wish I’d known these details before booking.

Pelican Beach Hotel was a fantastic little hotel. Now it does not have the amenities like a larger hotel but that being said it didn’t disappoint. Donna was absolutely brilliant and took care of any needs or issues we had. She set us up with a local guide to go snorkeling, recommended beaches to go to. Bambarra and Wild Cow Run were definitely highlights. Due to it being the off/shoulder season, We were the only guests at the hotel so it felt like we had the island to ourselves. The hotel had better WiFi than the bigger resort (Tuscany) we stayed at on Provo. The Barracuda Beach bar had some of the best food on the island. The fettuccine was really quite tasty (Weird but true). Breakfast was served every morning and was delicious and simple. Kay gave an absolutely amazing massage. Definitely a great experience.

This property was clean and quiet. The staff was very nice and the restaurant on the property had very good food.

My trip was a beautiful experience I feel blessed to experience the paradise Nice people very safe and pleasant 10/10 Returning!

I had an amazing journey on this trip. I actually cried when I got on the airplane to go back home. I have been treated with nothing but love and kindness my entire experience from the front desk and the owner to the staff the my two favorite people Ms.Willis and Mr. Kenneth were amazing. The food was excellent customer service, top-tier and the serenity on this beautiful paradise Island and I Love it!!! Many people were intrigued from my photos I shared on social media and they wanted to know where exactly I was. I will only tell a few vetted people who I believe. I deserve it for this Paradise and quality care. I can go on for days about how beautiful this experience was and also I would like to thank Michael for connecting to everything I needed to make the cherry on top of my vacation. this place gets 100 stars. I feel truly blessed that God allowed me to land on this hidden gem that I call my new Paradise I love y’all. and thank you Mr. Kenneth for teaching me about different parts of the world that I’m interested in traveling too soon. Take care. Stephanie Demorcy

Donna and her staff are the most attentive and helpful people I know. One night my husband asked about the coconuts hanging from the trees and the next morning a staff member showed up at ou door with two of them. If you get the chance to reserve the Sea Fan room do it. It is actually an apartment with a spectacular view of the ocean and cost less per night then any other hotel rooms.

Donna and the staff went over the top to make our stay enjoyable. The cracked conch at the restaurant/outside bar was sooo good - definitely fresh! We will be returning !!!

The property is beautifully maintained with a quiet, clean beach and friendly staff, perfect for a peaceful getaway. However, if you're looking for a location with easy access to food and entertainment options, this may not be the best fit. The hotel advertised breakfast as included, which is just a small bowl of fruit, a piece of pastry, and a glass of juice. There is only one on-site restaurant, and it operates from 12 PM to 8 PM, limiting dining flexibility. Taxi services arranged through the property are very expensive ($25 one way), even for short trips to restaurants. While I enjoyed the tranquil beach, the lack of food options and high transportation costs were very disappointing.

We had an enjoyable, peaceful and relaxing stay, just what we needed.The food was excellent, the staff and service was superb. A real special place.

A great beachfront property on a beautiful quiet beach

Great Location to relax!

Beautiful small quiet place, Donna was amazing and helpful ! We will definitely stay again!

This place was perfect for me...right on the beach, great staff, very relaxing!

The hotel has the best beach on North Caicos! The room is located right by the ocean only a few steps away with an amazing view of the beautiful turquoise water 24/7! We felt like we are on our own private island... There is a bar/restaurant only a few steps away, which is the best restaurant in the area. The staff are all super accommodating and friendly, especially Grace who went over and beyond to make our stay enjoyable and unforgettable. The hotel is owned by a very nice local family who were also extremely friendly. The hotel served breakfast every morning delivered to the room with an abundance of fresh fruit. I already miss that beautiful place. Will certainly be back!

The best view and beach front property! Perfect for couples and introverts :)

Lovely staff...nice accommodations. Wow...what a BEAUTIFUL location.

Everything was great! Friendly staff, they arranged the taxi from and to the ferry. It was very convenient that the restaurant is right at the hotel!!

This place is a solutely Heaven on earth! The staff is so friendly and helpful. This is not a luxury hotel with all the frills, but you can't get any better than this place! It is so serene and relaxing! Family owned,small and quiet. You literally feel as though you have the whole place to yourself! WE WILL BE BACK SOON!!! I know I am using a lot of exclamation points, but they are well-deserved.

Perfect place for a tranquil getaway. You can walk for miles on the beach and not see another person. Maybe add some screens to keep the bugs out but other than that perfect paradise.

Staff at pelican beach was awesome. They have everything we needed for the week or we're able to get it for us. The whole island is very remote. We visited 7 different beaches each with their own unique properties from sand bar, hidden beach, snorkel, etc and barely saw anyone else all week. Locals on the island were all friendly.

We had a wonderful stay at the Pelican Beach Hotel. The property is incredible - right on the beautiful Whitby Beach. The rooms are cozy, clean - and the staff makes sure you have everything you need. They went above and beyond to give us a full island life experience. Plus, we loved the complimentary breakfast tray delivered to our room! Barracuda Beach Bar also has amaazing drinks and delicious food - make sure to try the conch! We will definitely be back.

Front Desk Ladies..Grace and Donna were awesome..Housekeeping and ladies that delivered breakfast were great

Nice and quiet. No people on the beaches. Great snorkeling at Three Mary's Cays. Staff was excellent. Grace, in particular, was very caring and helpful. Look forward to coming back!

The Pelican Beach hotel is a little known jewel on North Caicos. One of the best things about it is their customer service. Each staff member, from Grace at the front desk to Kay at the spa and everyone else were so helpful and easy to work with. They accommodated all of our needs well. Another great thing is the location. Our hotel room was right on the beach. When we stepped off of our small patio we were amongst the palm trees and sand of the beach, just ten steps from the water's edge. It was also very quiet and peaceful. We felt as if we were the only people there, and sometimes on the beach, we were the only people on the beach. This hotel does have pool, a great beach front bar and restaurant, and a spa, but if you want a big resort with a gigantic pool, three bars, a disco, jet skies, crowed beaches. and parasailers, then North Caicos is not for you. North Caicos is as beautiful unspoiled Caribbean island. This hotel is perfect for a couples getaway, a honeymoon, or just enjoying the benefits of a great Caribbean island.

Wonderful staff, magical location, and accommodations and amenities perfect for a small beach front hotel!

Pelican Beach Hotel was exactly what we were looking for - clean, comfortable, quiet and relaxed. Our room was literally ten steps from the beach - and after spending some time on North Caicos we think it was the most beautiful beach on the island. The hotel is not a luxurious resort, but it has all the comforts that you will need - a clean room, huge bed, nice breakfast delivered to your room and a swimming pool. The owner is super nice and very helpful. For other meals you can either drive to one of a very few restaurants on the island or go to the Barracuda Bar on the property. Luckily, the Bar serves one of the best meals on the island and you will probably meet most of the tourists and many of the locals there. One thing that needs to be underlined is that North Caicos is really not a touristy place. „Many tourists” here mean meeting more than five people per day. The beach in front of the hotel is usually empty or there is a couple of tourists walking around. If you need clubs, fancy shops and restaurants to have a good time, stay in Provo. On the other hand, if you like to actually relax and distance yourself from a big city, North Caicos is the place to go. Renting a car at least for a part of the stay would be advisable - Al’s rental car company can deliver the car to your hotel or you can pick it up from the port, where the ferry lands.

We stayed a week at this little very well run hotel. The ferry crossing was quick and easy and met by taxi and taken to hotel. On arrival was given cold towels and a rum punch. A good start! our room was very clean and we saw that after each stay of visitors it was deep cleaned with a steam mop. In the room there was air conditioning, plus ceiling fan, fridge, coffee maker [refills given every day) iron and hair dryer. You are literally 20 paces away from the beach so sitting on sun loungers on your porch is idyllic- listening to the waves. On site is the Baracuda Bar and here you can have delicious cocktails and great food - we ate here most nights. Each morning a breakfast tray arrives, with juice, fruit cup and a hot breakfast, we were there 6 days and every breakfast was different. Omelettes, pancakes etc. They now have fabulous swimming pool on site. we did hire electric scooters one days and toured the island again a great service from twin e bike tours. We had a fab stay and would go back. Thank you.

While this property is older, they have done a great job with making it look nice, welcoming, and appealing. The staff was so friendly and would make it a priority to say Hello when they saw you. The bartender and waitresses would remember our room and drinks to have ready for us when we asked. The view from the oceanfront rooms was breathtaking. You can sit on your private space to read, enjoy the sound of the waves just beyond, or even take a nap. They have a little tub of water to help clean off your feet before going into your room, and a mat just inside to wipe your feet on too. Breakfast was served to our room daily at the time we’d request, and they were always on time (even on the days the time was changed by us). The food at the Barracuda Bar was delicious, freshly made, and was convenient to just have charged to the room. The only place I’d recommend some updates is for better water pressure for the shower, but I understand theres only so much that can be done about that. I was very thankful for a hot shower to take nightly. I’d also recommend a little rinse off station after coming off the beach, and not just the tubs at each of the rooms. But again, I’m thankful they at least had that option. Overall this was a 5/5 for my wife and I. This was our first trip to the islands and it was very nice go have a place where there weren’t a ton of people, it was quiet, and you truly could peacefully relax all day.

The Pelican Beach Hotel is amazing. It is quiet and the views are beautiful. The staff are amazing. Super nice and personable. Be sure to stop in and get some spa services from Kay. She is so sweet and does such a great job.

If you want some place quiet and beautiful .. It is the right place ♥️

Wow, if you want a quiet relaxing get away with a beautiful view and even more beautiful hosts this is your place. It takes an easy ferry ride to get there but is so worth it. I would recommend renting a car if you want to see the island. The restaurant on site is delicious and has very friendly staff. We will definitely be back!!

Very friendly staff and our room right on the beach.

The room was clean but a little dated. However, we had sea view right from our room. It was breathtaking and amazing. I especially want to shout out K for helping us feel at home. But all of the staff were great. You must have a car to get around because there is not much around the hotel. Loved this place. There was an on site restaurant but with limited options.

Property was nice but could use updates in the bathroom area also breakfast could be better they don’t offer anything to drink with meal but staff was excellent!!

Friendly folks, can’t beat the view and beach! Just lovely.

What you see is what we get and it was delightful for us to wind down. The staff is very friendly and we didn’t move for a day and a half. Donna helped us get a rental to visit other beaches and eateries. We had a great time keeping it simple with beautiful beaches, great food and no crowds.

We loved our stay at Pelican Beach! They have such a cute set up where you truly are right on the beach. The accommodation were clean, comfortable and private and it is amazing to be less than 20 steps from the water. You can hear the waves from all of the property. The barracuda beach bar is part of the hotel and has amazing sunset views. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The little breakfasts each morning were good and homemade. If you are looking for a place away from it all for relaxation and disconnection, this is definitely your place!

My stay here was amazing! I truly loved how quiet and secluded it was. I was traveling alone so I was a bit worried about safety but there weren’t too many ppl at the hotel and staff were VERY kind and helpful at all times. Although this is not the most updated hotel it is still very clean and neat. It is a bit of a trip to get there from providenciales so you will need arrange all transportation which Kay from the hotel was able to help with. Kay was truly the best and I recommend getting a massage while you’re there!

Our family loved our 4 night stay. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were nice and clean. AC worked great. The beach was phenomenal. Good food at the on site restaurant. Just be careful with all the mosquitoes on the island. Pack bug spray!

Best staff we’ve ever experienced. I strongly recommend staying here for a peaceful and friendly atmosphere.

Our stay at the Pelican beach hotel was awesome. We received great hospitality; Anything we requested for they provided for us including water refills in the room. The hotel is steps to the beach. Breakfast is brought to your room which when you are on vacation is what you need. We were late to catch the ferry one morning and the boss lady literally took her car and rushed us to the ferry. The taxi driver who services the hotel is another great man. I recommend the pelican beach hotel.

All was good, Kay was excellent & helpful…all was friendly, however was pissed, I told Donna I don’t like anyone in my room, she wanted to take the dirty towels, I bring my own towels/face clothes. I came back to my room & new towels was in my room….after I told her NO! I was not happy…& left the hotel. I’m going to ask for a refund for the two nights.

Quiet when doors closed, staff was nice, had a great tour, very attentive. If you didn't like something or needed something they made sure to accommodate. Will recommend and would stay here again

Quiet and picturesque beach side hotel on North Caicos. Great food, wonderful staff!

So close to the beach (private) come out of your room and walk a couple of steps and the beach is there🏖️ room was comfortable but old Bathroom needs a make over water pressure (none) DO NOT drink the water faucet in tub loose Towels changed daily but not the sheets they had rust stains which was not changed for the 4 nights we were there Also the beach towels also had rush on them Breakfast comes to your room daily have coffee and tea but don’t use the water buy bottle water no room service can only eat from 12-8p at the on site restaurant after it closes that’s it until the morning small store walking distance from resort quite expensive but if you want snacks water drinks that’s were you go

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Pelican Beach Hotel on a weeklong vacation in Turks & Caicos. We stayed at Pelican Beach Hotel on North Caicos for the first four nights of our trip. We took a ferry boat from Providenciales, then rented a car and drove to the hotel, the only resort on the island though there are some rentals. We were greeted kindly and guided to our room and asked when we would like breakfast delivered. The breakfasts were delightful and we enjoyed them on our porch looking out to the water. It was the second week of December, and initially we were the only ones there, but then there are only about 6 rooms. The hotel is directly on the beach, very clean, nice landscaping and gorgeous views of the turquoise water. The hotel is family run, now operated by Donna Gardiner, the daughter of the original owners. The staff take pride in their work and provided helpful information whenever we needed it. The Barracuda Beach Bar was steps away and is also right on the beach. An open air bar with friendly staff and wonderful food and drinks (try the I-Ain Ga-Lie beer from Turks Head Brewery or the Rum Punch, as well as conch fritters and lobster.) Bring strong deet insect repellant to keep sandflys at bay (trust me!). Absolutely gorgeous sand beach and plenty of other beaches nearby. We had some windy weather and some rain but mostly sun or sun/clouds with 80 degree temps consistently. Highly recommend staying at the Pelican Beach Hotel. In fact, we returned to Provo for the last few nights of our trip and stayed in a luxury hotel on the beach, and we kept saying how we missed Pelican Beach Hotel and wished we had stayed there the whole time!

The beach here is beautiful. As nice as I have ever seen. The resort is not fancy. But they do a great job of taking care of you. Ask and you will receive. Their slogan is “we may not know luxury but we know island living.” That is this place in a nutshell. We will be back. It is beautiful and peaceful.

Perfect place is you want just relax … The property was very nice. Well Kept. You need to take a ferry to the hotel. The ferry runs only certain times so make sure your flight comes in early enough to make the ferry times. The staff was really friendly and super helpful. I was surprised no phones in the room but I guess this helps to give the relaxation aspect. Caution….mosquito/sand flies will eat you alive … bring bug repellent!

Staff was very accommodating and couldn't have been nicer.

Quiant hotel tucked away in North Caicos. Great staff,Kay was very welcoming, always has a smile on her face and gave my wife and I great insight on how to maximize our experience! Highly recommend this place to anyone who prefers a quite,secluded experience.

Wonderful little gem of a hotel for a couple nights exploring North and Middle Caicos. Loved the direct beach access, yummy breakfasts brought to our room, and convenient bar/grill on site for evening dinner and drinks. Donna at the front desk was delightful and gave us helpful tips on what to see and do while on the island.

Perfect location for a full immersion in a Natural Paradise. Staff and owner extremely kind and welcoming. We needed a week of total relax and we found this little treasure. A small Spa and a small Beach Bar that serves lunch and dinners completed the experience. Thank you for your excellent hospitality.

Donna and K work very hard to provide an experience to remember.

The hotel is located in a remote, quiet area. The grounds of the property were well kept. The beach is absolutely beautiful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be the beds in the room. The beds and pillows are awful!! It was like sleeping on the floor with rocks as pillows. The beds were very noisy and moved with the slightest motion. I really tried to make it work. Even placing a few towels over the pillows didn’t do anything. We had 6 pillows in our room for the two full size beds and they were all the same. It was disappointing spending such wonderful days then having to come back to such uncomfortable beds at the end of the day.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Pelican Beach Hotel. The beach right in front of our room was our favorite spot to relax on the island. The hotel staff were friendly and accommodating. The included breakfast and the meals we purchased at the bar and grill were very good. We have no complaints and would definitely stay another week here. I would suggest reviewing the ferry schedule before booking your stay since it is the primary way to get to Middle Caicos.

Pelican Beach was a great place to stay and relax! The beach was literally at our doorstep, clean room and grounds with excellent service. Kay made our stay extra comfortable, she was prompt and friendly with any requests. Breakfast was brought to our room every morning at our requested time, which was a great perk. The Barracuda Beach Bar had good food and drinks onsite. We hope to return in the future!!

The most beautiful perfect spot on a gorgeous beach. Amazing. Lovely staff, all very kind, especially Kay. Delicious breakfasts every morning, brought to your room, different every day, terrific. The room is basic, older but clean. The location on the beach is the reason to stay here. Very peaceful.

We stayed at Pelican for 4 days, and it exceeded our expectations for an island-style beachfront hotel. We chose the "Sea Fan" suite, so can't comment on the other rooms. We found the staff to be friendly and usually efficient. Owner Donna is interesting to speak with. No problem with the pick-up from the ferry. Loved the Barracuda Beach Bar – perfectly located and provided a chance to meet some locals. The only downside is that the kitchen's menu is pretty limited. While tasty, it can seem monotonous after the first three days. (North Caicos doesn't have good supply lines.) And, yes, sandflies and mosquitos are a hazard anywhere on North Caicos, especially at dawn and dusk on windless days. Long if narrow beach is good for walking. We would go back.

This really is a lovely retreat. Very quiet (not for party animals!). The beach is spectacular and the sea is very safe for swimming. The staff were excellent, very efficient and friendly.

Loved it! Basically paradise!

The place is ideally located, the staff is extremely kind and attentive. Food is great! Drinks as well.

Stayed in 12/2023 PROS - Beachfront - Delicious chicken wings - Laid back, private, remote - Very nice owner/manager CONS - Unbearable mosquitoes/sand flies/noseeums - Unbearable mosquitoes/sand flies/noseeums - Unbearable mosquitoes/sand flies/nosseums We were told that the only thing that works is to put oil on your body 🫤

Spent my birthday weekend here. We were quite happy with the service, rooms and amenities. Would, definitely, stay again.

If you want a quiet, peaceful island life experience then you need to go here. The North Island is charming and has everything you need for a week or two away and the Pelican is the diamond in the rough with Donna and her staff making us feel like friends not customers. The onsite restaurant has a good selection of food and everything we ate was very good. The bar is right on the beach and is an awesome place to grab a drink and watch the waves roll in. If all you need is a beach, a clean comfortable room, home cooked food and a friendly atmosphere then this is the place for you…

So if you like quiet and out of the way with amazing seafront/beach this is worth considering. The bar on the beach is splendid and the food fine (although pricey as everything in T&I). Be warned about mosquitoes and other bugs. They are horrid. But the over top reviews are misleading. First, our room was not cleaned when we arrived (found dirty towels and food remains). It was much better cleaned on day 2, but the skanky shower curtain never was. Second, the first day breakfast was shockingly bad: bowl of fruit with stale bread. But again on day 2 we received lovely cakes alongside this. Third, the room walls are paper-thin. Fourth, the beds are falling apart and squuek at tiniest movement. So you will hear *everything* in two rooms.:) If you don't have a car/rental you are kind of trapped, but again for some that's the point. Sixth, the whole hotel lacks mosquitoes nettings on all the windows so you can't leave windows open at night or dinner. The airco is splendid, but shower and other appliances can use a face-lift. We didn't always have warm water. We also didn't hit it off with the owner so we also had some odd interactions, but I saw her be very warm to others so maybe we rubbed her the wrong way. Then again, the dirty room was dirty before we arrived and somehow she didn't arrange for pickup at ferry.

What a beautiful spot off the beaten path for an authentic Caribbean experience. The setting is idyllic and the white sand beach is steps from your room. The rooms are nice, clean, and simple. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The owner Donna is very sweet and attentive to her guests. What a great place to unwind in a beautiful, quiet, uncrowded setting. The Barracuda Beach Bar and Restaurant has excellent food and drinks. The daily breakfast served in your room was a great treat too. Get to North Caicos and have an authentic Caribbean experience. We won’t soon forget this trip!

second time at Pelican Beach. As wonderful as before. I do miss Clifford but his daughter is lovely and so very nice. The location is just like you want, beautiful and very quite. This is what the islands were like, before before the Ritz's came. It is so worth going to north and Middle Caicos and to pend a night or two at Pelican Beach so you can slow down and enjoy.

Beautiful setting and a relaxed island vibe. We were blessed to find this spot. Donna the host has really perfected a low key island stay- tranquil setting and a beach 10 paces from our door. They have also started doing a breakfast delivered to your room. These meals included blueberry pancakes one day and french toast another. It’s a quiet place yo get away and recharge. You will need a car to truly enjoy the notth and middle experience

This is a terrific small beach front hotel. You couldn't get any closer to the beach! Very clean and friendly. They were always ready to help with anything you might need as well as tips for things to do on the island. They also have a great restaurant and bar on the property. We would definitely recommend the Pelican Beach Hotel for anyone looking for a place to stay and/or eat on North Caicos.

We spent one week at this property , the hotel is very modest but presents quite well for an hotel at this price point. The property comprises a single storey block of 6 beachfront rooms and a two storey beach hose subdivided into several apartments . Our initial contact was via the checkin which was friendly and efficient . There of course is not any baggage handling .Our apartment was on the ground floor of the beach house and was spacious but modest and sparklingly clean as is the entire hotel . Facilities include a well equipped simple kitchen and better than average connectivity by TCI standards . There were several maintenance issues as a result of normal wear and tear as per any hotel but these were dealt with immediately in a very efficient and professional manner either by repair or replacement. Sleep quality is adequate and noise is non existent. The bathroom reflects the apartment and is quite simple but functional water pressure is adequate as are the towels and toiletries.Externally the property is set in island style grounds with easy access to the beach and some sun loungers , there is also a restaurant/bar which we felt was not very good having been charged almost $70 for two plates of overcooked dry fish with salad , we subsequently found options outside the property which were much cheaper and considerably better both in terms of portion size and quality. In short all reviews should be taken with regard to the reviewers previous experiences which obviously affect their expectations in our case we travel all over the world for six months a year even in the pandemic and stay in a variety of hotels from the very best 5star hotels to cheaper options when nothing else is available and in our opinion pelican beach hotel offers excellent value for money for this type of property in what is a very expensive location for even the most basic accommodation .

There is a lot of fresh paint and Suzie is back in the kitchen and running the motel again and the bar will be open shortly. The apartment is clean and now has a better view of the beach ! On my October visit found a lot of work going on and everyone was in high spirits and looking forward to the season.

Amazing view from your room. Most relaxing place I have ever been. Cliff and Suzie are awesome. Try the Pelican kiss. You never need to leave the area as you have all you need right there. You can even rent a car or a bike from Cliff.

My wife and I are repeat visitors and we're going back again! This place doesn't pretend to offer any resort-type amenities, but they do offer a place away from the crowd where you can relax and take in the ocean sounds/sights just feet away from your front door. Rooms are clean and comfortable (with AC!) and you won't find warmer hosts than Clifford (owner) and his wife, Susan. Chill at the Barracuda Beach Bar and enjoy the stories (there's a lot of them!) and genuine friendship. Excellent value for the money...I'm betting it's the best hotel value in Turks and Caicos!

Stayed 3 nights at the Pelican beach hotel. We had an upstairs 2 bedroom suite right on the corner over looking the beach. Rooms were spacious, with living room & kitchen combo. Beds were comfortable & clean, the air conditioning in the front bed room was slightly inadequate as there is no glass in the louvered doors, but not a deal breaker for me. Breakfast was supposed to be included in the room rate, but on checkout we noticed we were charged for breakfast daily. Not a big deal, just like to know things ahead of time. Checked out the barracuda beach bar at the back of the property, but being low season the woman that usually runs it wasn't there & the young woman that was there seemed to be inconvenienced by customers. Had a beer & left. Not much by way of marine life right off of the beach, but not a bad place to swim. All in all not place, would prob return.

We stayed at a Sandals resort last year in Jamaica and had a great time. We had an equally great time at Pelican Beach, but a totally different experience. I llike some adventure, and really value safety and good hospitalty. North and Middle Caicos offers some spectacular scenery, so a vehicle is needed to tour these islands. At the end of the we were always very happy to return to our clean room, eat deliciuos Carribean stlye meals and chat with the very friendly like-minded poeple at the hotel. People staying here value an authentic Carribean experience, it is affordable, like privacy but still enjoy a good conversation. The laid back slow pace is a great way to spend your vacation.

Stayed for two nights, after staying in provo, this for me was bliss. No tourists, no speed boats etc etc. Rooms were adequate, felt very safe. Very laid back and that's how I feel life should be!! Personally I wouldn't want a TV in my room, the view outside is enough for anyone! Would recommend if you like tranquillity, peace and quite!!

Just back from 2 days. Fantastic time, great hosts, womderful location. Homemade food was top notch. The barracuda bar was small, fun with locals and Made you fell like you belonged. Will be back next year. 1 things bring bug spray for nights . Make sure to visit middle caicos.
