Our visit was Oct 12 - Oct 21, 2008
Many, many thanks to Joe, Lori, Greg, & staff- to Eliazar, Cesar, & Santos for their dedication and seeing to it that all our wants and needs were met... and then some.

For such a young independent country, the service was extraordinary! Lots of fun things to do - just ask any of the staff at Pelican Reef and they will arrange it all!

Joe and Lori "have it going on" in Belize. We couldn't be happier for them and Greg. they work very hard for your respect - and they deserve it.
The Beachfront villa was wonderful...CLEAN and very nicely furnished. Loved the Washer/Dryer and the Granite counters very nice...very nice appliances also!
Good snorkeling right off the dock.
It was rainy season, but we still enjoyed plenty of sun.
Apply bug spray for those "evenings" out.
All the staff are always accessible and will turn themselves inside out to please!
We loved it!
Lori arranged a golf cart rental for us and we enjoyed it all week!
Lamanai Boat Tour by "Searous" (arranged through Pelican staff) was great!
Ziplining at Jaguar Paw was FABULOUS too!

This place is fantastic! The common grounds and pool area are beautifully manicured and spotless, the service was even better than expected, and the beach was something out of a magazine!

We enjoyed many evenings out at the end of the pier watching the sunsets and taking in the serenity of lying in the beach loungers and gazing out over the torquoise seas. Ahhh, it was truly paradise!

The interior of our villa was stunning and the mattresses were so comfortable! We had daily housekeeping, which was superb(!), and took advantage of the breakfast and lunch menu daily, which was also great(!).

We booked tours at the activities center and enjoyed both the snorkeling and fishing excursions. Cesar was extremely helpful in our activities planning and gave us some great tips on things to see around town.

We rented a golf cart and drove into town nightly for dinner. We loved Blue Water Grill, Sunset Grill, and Elvis. The drive into town was a bit bumpy (cobblestone streets), but well worth it to stay south of San Pedro! We liked the location because of the privacy on the beach. We found the time share salesman and other "entrepreneurs" to be annoying in town and were extremely happy with Pelican Reef's location. It took us 10 minutes on the cart to get to town, which was fine by us.

Lori and Greg (the managers) were wonderful, always helpful and always smiling! They have 2 precious dogs that we enjoyed playing with on the beach. So cute!

If you ask, "would you go back?" We say, "Yes."

If you ask, "would you change anything?" We say, "No."

It was fantastic and it was nice to be out of the hussle and bussle and truly enjoy the "laid back charm" of Ambergris Caye and Pelican Reef!

We returned from Pelican Reef about a month ago and are ready to go back! It was a wonderful vacation - great place to visit and an amazing resort. The location is perfect - just a short drive from town and right on the beach. The rooms were very clean and well maintained. We stayed in a 2B/2B condo which was the perfect size for my family of 4. The pool area was our favorite spot... with delicious drinks and a great bar menu. We spent all of our afternoons there. The staff is so friendly and helfpul - they planned a few adventures for us (I recommend the fishing trip with Oliver), told us the great places to eat and made sure all our needs were taken care of. We highly recommend visiting San Pedro and Pelican Reef - we look forward to our next vacation there!

I recently stayed a week at Pelican Reef Villas and had an amazing vacation. The location is unbeatable - the perfect distance from town and right on the beach. Our condo was very nice, clean and comfortable - and the perfect size for us. The staff was incredible - educating us about the island, setting up our fun day trips and giving up tips on great restaurants (loved Wild Mango's!). They took care of us from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. The pool and pool bar were gorgeous and we enjoyed many afternoons there sipping frozen drinks made by Eliazar. We also had fun taking the kayaks out to the reef and snorkeling from the end of the pier. The owners and managers live on-site so they are there to make sure you are happy and are a lot of fun to chat with. I highly recommend Pelican Reef and can't wait to stay there again!
