Top Pelican Plaza Hotel Reviews

El Lago Waters Motel

8/10 Good

"It is a great location. Walking distance to restaurants, shops and beach . They are currently doing renovations which are needed especially the older bathrooms but when finished I'm sure will be nice. Under new management and are very friendly . The price is very reasonable."

Spectacular Waterfront apartment. Best location in The Entrance.

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot. Great view. 10/10 place"

Oaks The Entrance Waterfront Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my stay - easy walk to pubs and restaurants. plus lovely views over The Entrance and all the pelicans!"

Ocean Front at The Entrance

10/10 Excellent

"Simple facilities with all needed, located right in front of the ocean. Extensive walk paths near the water. Quiet for a couple's gateway. We stayed in a room with the spa tub in the balcony and it's absolute heaven. The view from the bedroom is breathtaking. Will surely come back. Coffe shops and restaurants not too far. Recommend booking reservation in the restaurant under the Motel prior to arrive there, it's very busy."

Waterfront Holiday Apartment, north facing, superb 180 deg views, sunny balcony

10/10 Excellent

"The unit was great clean, so close to everything will be going back in the future."

Coast Apartments 7 - Roof Top pool

8/10 Good

"The location and size of the apartment was great. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean and the beds in both bedrooms were clean and very comfortable. Unfortunately there was no bedding for the sofa bed and when we opened it there was a dirty sheet covered in crumbs and hair in the mattress. The floors had obviously been vacuumed and were crumb free however I doubt they had ever been mopped and left our feet black. The table and chairs on the front balcony were so dirty we had to throw away the rags we cleaned them with. The balcony floor tiles, bbq cover and air conditioning unit were black and filthy with bird droppings - not just a days worth. The back balcony was similar. We tried to empty the garbage but the bin rooms in the carpark were locked up ( we left a tied garbage bag with very little in it in the kitchen tidy). It was a no frills apartment in a wonderfully convenient position and we enjoyed the stay. The linen and towels provided were beautiful but as 4 ladies travelling together we needed the sofabed so they could benefit from leaving additional bedding."

The Lakes Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Close to everything that you need, super accommodating as well as polite and friendly staff, not to mention awesome food options downstairs!"

Coastal Family Retreat, Walk to Beach & Lake

10/10 Excellent

"This was the first time I had ever spent a night in The Entrance and the house we stayed in was very comfortable."

The Entrance Backpackers - Hostel

10/10 Excellent
