Pelican Pointe Resort  

On Clearwater Beach, just steps from the sand and the Beach Walk. This family-friendly beach hotel sits about 200 ft (150 m) from Gulf waters and is within walking distance of Pier 60, shops, restaurants and nightlife along South Gulfview Boulevard.

Beachy, clean rooms and studios project a relaxed tropical spirit across 61 individually decorated guestrooms. Many units are efficiency suites with kitchenettes (microwave, fridge, coffeemaker), cable/flat-screen TVs, hairdryers and ironing gear; garden-view suites show dark-wood furnishings and lively tropical bedspreads.

Take a dip in the year-round heated outdoor pool set on a furnished sundeck, or stroll straight to the beach for sunset at Pier 60. On-site perks include a ping-pong table, guest laundry, complimentary self-parking, 24-hour coffee in the lobby and easy access to fishing, boating, parasailing and cruises — wake up to sea-breeze mornings.

Complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property and a 24-hour reception make short-stay work easy. Elevator access and limited onsite parking are available.

A continental breakfast is served each morning and the lobby keeps coffee brewing around the clock. Rooms include coffee/tea makers for early beach runs.
