Great, but couldn’t see out of some windows. Pool was awesome. Hot tub only at 86 degrees. Asked to borrow some wine glasses, but not allowed? Bed comfortable and loved the fireplace. Great to have a fridge and microwave.

Always good to go back to Pelican Cove on beautiful Moonstone Beach. The room was great and can't beat the view!!!!! Service was excellent and we enjoyed the relaxation.

The bed was comfortable and clean. The view of the ocean was nice. Close to the boardwalk and Cambria. The furniture was old and dirty and the shower head was clogged with no water pressure. The drain line for the shower was clogged and drain very slowly, so by the time you finished your shower you were standing in dirty water. Disgusting!!!!! Can’t believe the maintenance guy was not aware of this problem. Easy fix. At $250 a night I was expecting a nicer room.
