It is a beautiful venue and the staff was really nice. Halfway through I had to change my heels as my feet couldn't handle the hard packed sand any more. The food was very good. Salad, chicken, rice, meat. Unfortunately, after they cut the wedding cake they invited everyone to come to the dance floor and the cake was taken away. So hardly anyone got to eat the cake!

Stayed in the Conch Villa as part of a pretty large wedding event. The first impression when…read moredriving into the place was, "What could possibly be back here that is going to work for a wedding?" However, the answer to that was surprisingly great. The villas have separate rooms with common areas and the one I was in had three bedrooms. The bedroom situation was similar to a hotel room. A nice comfortable bed, a private bathroom, generous closet space, and - most importantly - a good stable temperature even with the thermostat being out in the hall. A ceiling fan helps with circulation, which is great too. The only real downside I can think of is that two of the bedrooms are on the second floor, and you need to take this into account with your luggage as there are no elevators. Well, that and the fact that the finish of the stairs blend into the floor at the bottom so if you are older this might make for a physical perception problem as well. Anyway... Parking is a little tight when the place is full, but the location worked out really well for the wedding ceremony. Out on the point you can see the sunset across the water in the evening. Manatees frequent the dock which are a sight to behold. Across the dock there was a nice flat area on hard sand that was perfect for the reception. Yes, there are water activities including dolphin interactions across the boarder from what are the villas, but I can't make any comment on that part since I didn't manage to even visit over there.

Beautiful place, but I would never stay here again. I rarely…read moreleave negative reviews, but this experience was bad enough that I feel people should know what to expect. There were four of us staying at the villa, and we all left disappointed. The property is beautiful, but the owner/manager's attitude toward guests is a major problem. He constantly bothered us and reprimanded us over different things, and the entire atmosphere felt uncomfortable. We were celebrating my husband's birthday. We were never told that music was completely forbidden, yet we were made to feel like even enjoying music was a problem. I completely understand respecting quiet hours and other guests, but there is a big difference between reasonable rules and making guests feel like they cannot enjoy their vacation. I was also charged $225 for supposedly smoking inside the room. I do not smoke, so I found this accusation and charge extremely unfair. The breakfast was another disappointment. Calling a pastry and poor-quality coffee an "included breakfast" is misleading, especially considering the price of the stay. The property is gorgeous, but you are paying a lot of money for a place where you don't feel comfortable. If you are looking for somewhere to relax, celebrate and actually enjoy your vacation, I would think twice before booking this place. I would not return, even for free.

I've been coming to the Pelican for lobster season for quite a few years. My husband actually has…read moreeven more history here--he used to come when he was younger and later returned with a buddy to sell a boat. Back then, before COVID, the property had large tiki huts on the dock, and they even served breakfast in the mornings. After COVID, things seemed to go downhill. During our last trip to the Keys, we actually chose not to stay here because it just wasn't the same. This year, though, we decided to give it another chance, and I'm glad we did. You can definitely tell they've invested a lot of money into improving the property. In previous years, the air conditioners were so weak that we actually packed multiple fans every trip just to stay comfortable. This time, the air conditioning worked great and kept the room nice and cool. That alone made a huge difference in our stay. Another big improvement is the dock. For years, there was a large hole where the old tiki hut used to be, making that area feel unfinished. After more than six years, they've finally repaired the dock. While I do miss the tiki hut, it's nice to see the space usable again. There were also several smaller updates around the property that didn't go unnoticed. Overall, I'm really happy with the improvements. This visit completely changed my opinion, and we'll definitely be staying here again. The only thing I still wish they had is a pool, but that's a minor inconvenience--we usually just head elsewhere for a day pass when we want to swim. It's great to see this place heading in the right direction, and I'm looking forward to returning next lobster season.

But here is where things didn't quite come together. We were given room 202. When we checked in, we were told that there would be someone at the front desk 24 hours a day. At 1130 pm, we realize that our toilet didn't flush very well, and just needed a plunger. I had to ring the desk several times and finally did get someone around 12:15 AM. I requested service on the toilet the next day, but that never came to fruition during our two day stay. We did get a plunger. In the meantime, there were several other issues with our room - general aging with a lot of rusty metal parts, furniture falling apart, a non-functional toilet paper holder, no extra toilet paper, no hand soap, a shower handle that was extremely loose with a large nail hanging out of it, missing lightbulbs, and peeling paint. The beds were decently comfortable. The housekeeper was nice. The property has a very small pool. And some good shore access. Can go fishing on the dock. Strange local family hanging out there like it's their backyard. No breakfast. Nice coffee/drink maker. Would not choose to stay here again.

She told us repeatedly the RV tank dump person would be there Wed (22nd) but she suddenly wanted us to leave a day prior? 2 She said I had 30min to get back, before she had it TOWED. I repeatedly told her the rv keys were in it & she could move it if needed. 3 I told her we were 90min away & were coming back to move it & luckily it had not been towed yet, but she had to have CUT THE POWER to the rv the day prior when we took the jeep out (& got held up that night & did not come back go the RV) bc $200 of meat & cheese rotted & left a blood puddle in the fridge from the beef that had defrosted in the freezer & the food made my driver sick. 4 In addition to the TOWING, she said she was still CHARGING us for the ADDITIONAL day but that we could not stay there?! She told Airbnb she had another booking but NO ONE was there in those spots & we were even in a an adjacent parking lot for 4 hours disinfecting the fridge from unplugging us... NO ONE. 5 The listing was also $111 to park your own RV, which she raised to 139 for hookups, which we said we did not need but since wd were charged for them, we used them. Then she RAISED IT again to 147 for a clean up fee. (No clean up needed at all). 6 When I told her we got caught in traffic on the only road for 2.5hrs & had to pay to stay in another key & were not there to move it in 30min she said she did not care. She said she didnt know why we would go knowing we had go knowing we had go leave?! (Didn't listen that it was not planned & well documented on my FB wall). I had till the 25th according to her & would have paid more if required. 7 I tried to reach her on each of the #s she texted me from & she SCOLDED ME for using the emergency phone?! 8 When my phone was not working, she scolded me for using my drivers phone & said she was REPORTING IT ?! to AirBnb but said she had been trying to get ahold of me for hours.
