Situated along the pristine shores of Fort Lauderdale, the Pelican Grand Beach Resort is an exquisite beachfront haven that seamlessly blends old-world charm with contemporary luxury. You’ll find it perched right on the beach, providing guests with a front-row seat to breathtaking ocean views.
Each morning, I rose with the sun and took in the beautiful sunrise from the ocean view terrace that’s adorned with inviting rocking chairs. My boyfriend, Matthew and I enjoyed breakfast al fresco at OCEAN2000 that serves regionally influenced cuisine. We visited the resort in late October and the weather was absolutely perfect – it was warm and had a very gentle breeze.
At this expansive resort, there’s a myriad of ways to unwind and revitalize. Guests can bask in the comfort of private cabanas, take a refreshing dip in the zero-entry pool, lazily drift along the gentle currents of the lazy river, or simply take leisurely strolls along the powder-soft white-sand beach. For those in search of a more profound relaxation, the PURE Spa beckons with a menu of rejuvenating treatments tailored to nurture the mind, body, and soul.
Beyond the resort’s boundaries, Fort Lauderdale presents a wealth of attractions and diversions. Thanks to the strategic location of the Pelican Grand, you’re only a short drive away from the city’s top landmarks, shopping districts, and vibrant nightlife.
The resort offers generously spacious rooms and suites, all tastefully decorated with a chic coastal aesthetic. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide panoramic vistas of the Atlantic and many of the accommodations feature separate sitting areas, enhancing the sense of comfort and luxury.
In addition to breakfast, OCEAN2000 also serves lunch and dinner. We dined at the restaurant one evening and watched the sunset while sipping on delightful tropical cocktails. As for mains, my boyfriend and I had steak and lobster accompanied by mashed potatoes. It was a delightful and indulgent meal and we left very satisfied! The service was very attentive and accommodating too.
The Pelican Grand Beach Resort is more than just a place to stay; it’s an immersive experience. Whether you’re in pursuit of a romantic getaway, a family vacation, or a solo retreat, this resort promises a stylish and unforgettable sojourn that captures the essence of Fort Lauderdale’s beachfront beauty.
