Just wasn’t what we were expecting as we like more upscale accommodations but I guess it did have an old Florida feeling if that’s what you’re looking for? No pool which I should have realized at time of booking! Glad we only booked it for 1 night

Bloody q-tip on window sill, I go politely and say multiple brown stains or smears on towel with a fowl smell, what appeared to be blood stains on blanket, AC unit was loud and made noises all night, and didn’t even cool the room temperature. Alerted the staff in the morning and expected some sort of contact or something, just a well look into it and nothing. Was looking at this hotel as a possible recommendation for wedding guests for an upcoming event, is definitely going on the do not stay list.

For the price, it was great! We did get the smaller room which was much smaller than I thought. However, it was perfect for my husband and I who really only needed the room for getting ready and sleeping. The room was very clean, and we loved the little porch we had connected to our room. The property was beautiful with its tropical trees and beach. However, unless you get there first, space on the beach and chairs on the dock are limited. But the property is located close to many great restaurants and coffee shops as well as many places to snorkel. Over all, great stay!

This was our 3rd time staying at the Pelican Key. We love that we have a walk in beach and the docks which are great for fishing or just relaxing and watching the sunset. Staff is very helpful but this time we did not like our room. We stayed in room 206 which was smaller than anticipated being we were traveling with a child. The beds were not comfortable at all and the kitchenette space was small. We would come back despite this but we will make sure We don't get this room again.

This was a great find in Key Largo. Has private beach where you can swim and snorkel a bit and see some fish. Has kayaking as part of staying here and very close to State Park where you can take a Snorkeling boat trip and other things to do there. There are restaurants within walking distance, and all have great sunsets. We appreciated that there were plenty of towels and we had parking space and small table to sit outside. Overall awesome place to stay if you plan to visit Key Largo. The gentleman that checked us in as well as staff was very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay extra days next time.

The rooms are small but clean. It is an older property. I've been going here for over 20 years. The outside is why you go here. The beach area is cleaned daily with amazing sand, docks, and the best water to relax or snorkel in. Kayaks are included, too! This is a great place. They also have a communal washer/dryer to clean clothes; it takes quarters.

We. Absolutely LOVED staying here. The staff was friendly and helpful. We got discounts on local food and a pamphlet on things to do in the area. The rolms were clean with working A/C in both rooms. Worked so well we were cold in FL so that was nice. Private beach was beautiful to watch sunsets and water was clean perfect to swim in. We swam alllll day! They had floaties and boogie boards (which we left one there for others to use!) Cbaora on the docks and plenty of seating. They come out early to fluff the sand and clean up the grounds. Their cleaning staff was on top of the rooms and the location was center to everything. I dont have any complaints but if I could suggest anything it would be to make the bathrooms a little bigger and add the second half of the shower glass to the shower so water doesnt get everywhere.

Thus is an amazing stay and I highly recommend! (Kid approved too!)

The office closes at 9 PM and they have an emergency number to call, not your traditional hotel. The rooms are very small but cozy. Take a look at the rooms, it may or may not suit your needs. Property has access to a boat ramp and that's really good if you own a boat.

Property has no pool, there is, however; access to a small beach which is great. I feel the price is a bit higher for what the property has to offer.

We had a wonderful stay at Pelican Cottage in Key Largo. The views of Florida Bay were absolutely beautiful, especially at sunset. The waterfront location provides a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere that is hard to beat. The property offered excellent value for the price, making it one of the best deals we’ve found in the Keys.

One of the biggest advantages is being on the bay side rather than the Atlantic side. During our stay, there was no sargassum seaweed to deal with, which made enjoying the shoreline and water much more pleasant. The bayfront setting was clean, scenic, and perfect for relaxing.

The grounds were very nice and the room was cute. However, Beware of the fact that the staff leaves at night, and does not return until after 7:30 the next morning. A circuit breaker was tripped in my room ,and i had to locate the breaker box and reset it to restore power to the room . There were after hour numbers to call however, the lady at the check-in desk told me that I would probably wake somebody up if I called after hours and that would anger them, so I avoided that .
Lastly, a group of people came in and took over the whole beach property during the night, they were loud abusive, and I’m not even sure if they were staying at the hotel. Because there was no one at the hotel this could not be reported ,so I had to go into my room for the rest of the night to avoid these people. The room was very affordable, but obviously not having a night person on site kept the cost down ,not a good trade-off, I won’t be coming back.

The rooms are clean and very comfortable, the real stand out is the location right by a private beach and 3 docks with amazing views of the gulf and wonderful sunsets. Plenty of shade, lots of loungers and chairs to relax in made this a very relaxing and fun stay, thank you. We would highly recommend and definitely return to stay again.

We enjoyed our stay here and would stay again. It’s a very lovely, vintage property on the West side of Key Largo. A person needs to only walk a short distance down to their private beach nightly to catch the sunset. There are three docks with chairs set to watch the beautiful show of colors. We were in the economy size room so expected a small space. We also knew we would be near the busier highway, but that did not bother us. Frankly, the air conditioner, drowned out that noise. So just know the air conditioner is quite loud, but we were able to turn it off and on as needed. Plus, we were not there that much only in the evenings and early mornings. We had a very cute private covered entry. We were there for six nights. Overall, even though there were three other rooms around us, it felt very private. We didn’t hear anybody else next to us. Parking is on site right next to your room pretty much every night. There are walkable restaurants nearby which was a huge perk too. The staff were very helpful, nice and accommodating. I can’t say enough about them really!

This place was wonderful! Great location right at the top of the Keys! Excellent waterfront restaurants within walking distance, 2 hours to Key West. 3 beautiful private docks to relax on, free Kayak rentals, little private mini beach. Huge perk for price is location. It was simple, clean, quiet. No luxury, no daily cleanings. If you need towels or extra soap etc…you have to ask so bring stuff.
Perfect if you are looking for a nice place to relax and rest your head and you don’t like all the tourists and crowds. I myself enjoy peace and light interaction with people making Key Largo perfection. We spent time fishing, Everglades and Key West for the day. Highly recommend. If you want luxury, this isn’t the place for you.

While this property was adequate, there were a number of annoyances we encountered in our 5 night stay. The toilet was clogged upon our arrival. Maintenance guy pulled out a bar of soap. Very embarrassing for my partner who had used the toilet and couldn't flush it. Ants on the counter and table. The staff came and sprayed Raid on the counter and said an exterminator would be there the next day. The film of Raid remained so we couldnt use the counter until housekeeping cleaned it. I asked for NO housekeeping upon our arrival but someone was in the room at least twice and didnt actually clean it but left a few toiletries, took 2 towels, but left the others. AC unit was working but cycled on and off all night which is not great for a light sleeper. On the positive side, they offered free kayaks but it was difficult to arrange for one because the staff weren't sure when they were available. Even though 5 kayaks were sitting on the beach seemingly unused, the staff said that they were being used by someone. 10 minutes later, all of the kayaks were available even though none had moved. The staff was pleasant and friendly but i got tired of asking for situations to be resolved so i gave up and made do. Everyone is expensive in the Keys so the price was OK...$1227 for 2 people for 5 nights. Good parking. Ice machine was free. Laundry machines were available..around $2 to wash and $2.50 to dry but we didnt use them. The beach is OK, grassy bottom, rough sand and 3 docks.Comfy beds

The beach was the only nice thing about the property. Our cinder block room was so tiny we couldn’t even open up our suitcase unless we put it on top of the bed— there was literally less than 12” on each side of the bed. The noise was so loud from the highway that we needed to keep the a/c fan running all night to try to drown out some of the noise. There were 2 chairs and a table outside our room that faced the cement building. This place looks like a throwback from the fifties— but not in a cute way. The place next door with little bungalows looked much better. Big disappointment.
