We had a great time during our stay at Pelican Waters Resort. The room was big and had plenty of space. The beds were comfortable. We also loved the underground gated parking. It was safe and made things very easy, especially when carrying bags. The only small problem was the bathroom sink. It was a bit too shallow, which made it a little awkward to use. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. We’d recommend this place to anyone!

It was a gorgeous resort, but basic maintenance wasn't looked after: the shower was broken, lamps were either missing from rooms or bulbs were missing from them. Half a great view, half a view of a construction site. Would love a breakfast option or at least coffee earlier in the morning. Other comparable hotels include a breakfast buffet. The pools are lovely, dinner at the restaurant was lovely and they catered to our dietaries. Staff were very helpful.

Great for a quiet stay a bit away from everything, and yet still just a short drive to the rest of the Sunshine Coast also. There is a supermarket and tavern within about a 5 minutes drive, or the resort has a nice restaurant bar. Nice sized apartment, and nicely furnished, but the TV's are quite dated in the age of 50" LCD's for peanuts. I had a great view from my balcony over the golf-course waters. Pool is unbelievable and large! You can order drinks by the pool from your mobile, and they'll be delivered a few minutes later by the friendly staff. Prices aren't "cheap" but neither ridiculously priced compared to elsewhere. Underground parking is good, but will not fit a taller 4WD. For those you can park them out the front. Value was great on my rate for a long weekend away. A great place to stay for a few days or longer!
