We had an excellent stay! We felt at home in the cottage. It was fully stocked with all the luxuries of home… all we had to provide was our food. My grandchildren loved the pool! The hosts went over and above to make sure our stay was great. Perfect location… just a walk away from the shops, sights, and the beach.

Another wonderful stay at Pelican Cottage! Deb and Ed are great hosts. The cottage is in the best location on Lido—-a quiet street within walking distance to St. Armand’s Circle. It’s charming and equipped with everything you will need. The pool is an added bonus when you get tired of the 2 minute walk to the beach!

Pelican Cottage was amazing! Perfect location, great pool, beautiful beach! The walk to the beach was a little lengthy because of a roped off bird sanctuary. But it helped to keep the beach less crowded. The only complaint we have is with the landscaping service. We were woken up early by blowers right outside the window. We believe such services should be reserved for the day of checkout. Otherwise it was a perfect week and we hope to return year after year!!!

Perfect location to circle and short walk to beach. Awesome balance of shared space and ability to spread out. I loved getting a few hours of work done on the patio by the pool, watching the sun rise. Deb was super responsive when we had an issue with the lock pad battery getting low- and checked to make sure we were good.
