“A Wonderful First Visit”

Reviewed 4 June 2013

We went to PH on a corporate event but stayed an extra few days on our own following. The facilities are all above first class, and with the right bungalow, the views are magnificent. We thought the food, both at the events and on our own was well above average, but didn't always justify the price, but then that is... More

“Excellence Defined by the Resort at Pelican Hill”

Reviewed 3 June 2013

This is far and away the best resort I have ever set foot in, and to date, the only five star review I have given in spite of having stayed at numerous high end resorts in Europe and North America. As I have stated in reviews prior, there needs to be an objective standard for overall excellence and the Pelican... More

“Montage vs. Pelican Hill”

Reviewed 31 May 2013

I've been a big fan of The Montage for years, but decided to try PH this time because I was going to be in Corona Del Mar and Newport Beach a lot. I have to say I'm very surprised by all the 5 star reviews because our experience there was far from perfect. I'd give it 3.5 stars if I... More

“Stunning resort”

Reviewed 29 May 2013

Pelican Hill Resort is a perfect getaway for just a day or an extended stay. Conveniently located along the Pacific Coast between Newport Beach and Laguna Beach, it is a great base for seeing many of the sights of Southern California. It's a short drive to Disneyland and just over an hour to Los Angeles. The resort itself is not... More

“5 Stars, but not Newport”

I am fortunate as I grew up in Newport. So, after watching the evolution of Newport Coast my wife and I decided to experience the Resort at Pelican Hill. We booked a Villa Which is essentially a very nicely appointed tract home. The views are spectacular, overlooking the 1st and 18th holes of the North Course. The villa pool and... More

We stayed for four nights in April. The weather was actually cold and rainy most days, which was too bad. Other than the weather, the trip was fantastic. We were unable to upgrade our bungalow to one with a view because they were booked. But even with no view (other than tree's / secluded) the terrace was nice and relaxing.... More
