Pelican Grand Beach Resort Fort Lauderdale

I couldn't wait to sit on the rocking chairs on the sprawling porch and look out at the ocean. The very first night we sat on the porch, we saw 3 rats run from the front chairs to the couches near the wall. I spoke with the front desk and the man told me it was because of the food served on the veranda. The 2nd night, it was just moments before we saw a rat. Again, the front desk dismissed this and said they would call their exterminator, Orkin. On the 3rd night, I screamed and people were looking at me. My son was trying to photograph the rats. Every time I walked back into that hotel, I thought of rats! It is not hard to imagine them in the restaurants and throughout the hotel. It was like being transported from a beautiful place to a dirty subway with rats.
I was mortified and the hotel staff did not seemed concerned about these common health issues. Worst traveling experience of my life.

They have a beautiful outdoor sitting area for the restaurant as well as the hotel. The rooms are very nice and have spectacular ocean views in the more expensive rooms. Nice beach ammenities and and pool areas as well. Great Observation and meeting and event spaces. You can get great rates after April. Ice cream shop, bar, good food and right on the beach in a nice location in Fort Lauderdale
