Pelican Lakes Motel

8/10 Good
"The motel room was clean. We had a room with 2 twin beds. It was outdated, but very clean. No real amenities to speak of. Beds and a TV. No A/C and don’t expect them to call you if you leave a message asking if there is A/C because they do not respond and they don’t answer the phone. However, if you are just looking for a room to sleep in, you can’t beat the price, Beds aren’t great and no extra towels. It worked for what we needed. Probably won’t stay again though."

The Lodges at Breezy Point

The Lodges at Breezy Point

8/10 Good
"This is a timeshare place that’s on breezy point property. We did not realize that. It was like a blast from the past! Very early 90s feeling style/furniture wise. There were some stains on the carpets, the towels are old, no toiletries provided, mis matched and lacking cookware, etc.It is definitely not where you want to stay if you want a modern place. That being said, we had an amazing time. The swimming beach is beautiful and clean. The restaurant was delicious, and the gift shop and candy store were great too. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the condo so it wasn’t too bad. Also note - there were no windows to the outside in the actual condo, and while we were there the high village pool wasn’t working, there was another pool to use though. Overall we probably won’t be back but it was a good experience for only being there a few days."
