After almost 3 weeks on the road, we were thrilled to arrive at the Diving Pelican Inn. We were made to feel like family, or old friends, rather than paying guests. Michelle works tirelessly from sunrise till sundown. She’s always looking at ways to improve her very inviting and comfortable atmosphere. She organized a new kitchen during our stay. She... More

We just had our second visit to the Flying Pelican in three months. We just love this place. Michelle is a wonderful innkeeper and she has a great staff. The food is excellent and the cocktails are the bomb. Try the Monkey LaLa.
