Location: Marigot Bay, St. Lucia, Caribbean

Accommodations:  Villa, 3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths (Sleeps 6)

Situated on the exclusive north side of Marigot Bay. The Pelican House offers you an unsurpassed Caribbean vacation. From the spacious, 70-foot veranda you can experience spectacular views of both the bay and the ocean.

Watch the sailboats and yachts enter and exit the bay, and then experience the breathtaking sunsets all from the comfort of the veranda. If boat watching is not your thing, then perhaps the show put on by the hummingbirds constantly flying around the lush gardens will excite you. If relaxation is what you crave, just lie back in the hammock and watch the world go by. If more active pursuits are your pleasure the beach is a two-minute walk down the hill and diving, sailing and other watersports are practically at your doorstep.

For your dining pleasure, there are many fine restaurants within a ten-minute walk from the house, or you have a well-appointed kitchen in which you can cook up your own masterpieces.

Marigot Bay is centrally located midway along the islands west coast. You are about 15 minutes from Castries the capital city, 40 minutes from Rodney Bay with its resorts and activity, and about one hour from the beautiful scenery of the Pitons and the old French capital of Soufrierre. No matter what your desire is, from dancing the night away, to hiking the Pitons - Marigot Bay offers you convenient access to it all.

The house is comfortably furnished with all locally made furniture for the true Caribbean feel. The veranda has a large dining table, which seats eight, and there are comfortable chairs for up to ten people. Each bedroom is complete with comfortable beds, linens, and private bath with shower. There is one king-size bedroom and two rooms with two singles, this makes it the ideal house for families traveling together.

  • Our family of four, including two teenagers 16/19, stayed the week of Feb 14/09 at the Pelican House. We had a great week. The house is unique and fun with its open (literally) concept. It was great to open your bedroom door to the beautiful views of Marigot Bay. Location is fun with restaurants easily accessible. We were glad we had a car to travel around to keep the kids entertained.

  • Pelican House was the perfect home base for a true "island experience." St.Lucia is a unique and special Caribbean Island with mountains, rainforest, coconut palm shaded beaches, snorkeling, boating and interesting local food and culture. Pelican House is perfectly located to see and do it all! (Or nothing at all). Pelican House is a great home base situated high on a hill overlooking beautiful Marigot Bay (one of the prettiest harbors anywhere) surrounded by bouganvillea and cooled by tropical breezes. The kitchen is very well equipped for any kind of culinary adventure-for us it was a great pleasure to sit on the porch and have breakfast taking in the beautiful view. One evening Julietta the housekeeper prepared a tasty St. Lucian meal which was a lot of fun. We explored the entire island and we were so glad we chose Pelican House.

  • Pelican House was a delightful property. All the conveniences of home with a FANTASTIC view and warm weather to boot. Stayed for a week and enjoyed every minute of it. Great central location for the main island attractions, nothing more than an hour away by car or taxi. The resort provided all essentials such as restaurants, gifts and groceries. House accessible via lift/tram which saves on LOTZ of stairs. Only disappointment was no internet and noisy neighbors for several nights. Would give it 8 out of 10 stars and highly recommended!!!

  • I had a great time in St. Lucia and the Pelican House was fantastic. Marigot Bay is beautiful and the Pelican House has a lovely view of the Bay. The large porch was great! We enjoyed every minute of our stay and would recommend this place to anyone. I have travelled to other Caribbean islands, but St. Lucia and our stay at the Pelican House have been by far one of my favorites! My goal in life is to visit as many Caribbean islands as I can, but should I decide to return to St. Lucia, I will definitely rent the Pelican House again.

  • We (husband, 15 yr. old son, and I ) had a wonderful time in the outdoor house, views were spectacular all the time, all the conveniences of home, an extremely relaxing house.There are lots of things to do if you wish, water taxis or regular taxis are the easiest way to go, if you have a car, get very specific directions as there are very few signs to locations..The best way to describe our vacation in St- Lucia is, a great adventure.Local food was great, Restaurant Mygo across the bay was delicious,lots of fresh fruits and vegies,mangoes on tree in backyard a real treat!. Local people friendly, water warm and clear, scenery spectacular.There were no bugs during the day but bug spray at night is recommended as the little devils hide out in dark places and come out to get you at night.Had a blast, it's a great place!

  • The Pelican House was a wonderful place to stay! The views from the deck were great. Julietta showed us some local places to shop near Marigot Bay. The availability of fresh produce and fish at the market in Castries was impressive. The roads are narrow, but we found the local drivers to be very courteous. Jim (the house owner)was great to deal with. We had to spend an unexpected night in Puerto Rico on the way down and Jim was very helpful in coordinating with Julietta to meet us at the house at a different time to let us in. Marigot Bay is one of the prettiest bays that we have seen, and the weather was perfect. We highly recommend staying at the Pelican House.

  • WE loved this house. Except for sleeping the entire living space is outdoors on the long deck where there are 3 separate living areas, great views and steady cooling breezes. The kitchen is well-equiped and open air with the same terrific views. The closeby swimming and snorkling leave something to be desired, but still a refreshing swim is only a short distance away - and better beaches are only a short water taxi ride away. No need for a car - and driving is a nightmare anyway - just hire Smally and let him do the work. Biggest drawback is the noise from all the tourboats with loudspeakers during the day and from the live bands in the bars (but only a couple of nights a week) at night. Maid service is efficient and not at all intrusive. If we ever return to St. Lucia we'll definitely book here again.

  • Yes now we are back home in the cold Denmark. A happy new year to you too. To you and your wife: Thank you for having the Pelican house – so it was possible for us to use it for two weeks. All 7 in the family have had a fantastic holiday in your house. Holiday is: Touring the island, and the wonderful beaches, – sitting on the veranda watching the ships sail by, walking slowly through Doolittle’s to the beach, having a chat with the local guys saying Jaa Maan. We went to our local village near the airport down south. They were all there after 20 years. Lots of tears, drinks and local food. But also a bit hard to see, that in those 20 years they have only become poorer, with bad health and no money for medicine. The development has only been in the north part of the island. In Laborie and Wieux Fort everything has closed down – and people seems lost. The farm we managed for two years is closed – so again no fresh milk on the island. But being a guest on the island is fantastic. Marigot Bay is probably one of the most beautiful bays in the world. So thanks again, we will tell all our friends around Copenhagen about this wonderful holiday and we will of course tell the same story on homeawayconnect guestbook. Thanks again – and best wishes Henriette and Morten Krohn + Zia, Nilas, Aske, Ida and Albert (all of us is almost as black as the locals)

  • We really enjoyed staying here. We took a ferry to the other side of the bay where we were suprised to see a motorized historic mining cart waiting to carry us up to the steps of the Pelican House. The accomodations were nice: large beds, three rooms w/showers, nice view of sunsets and a pretty cool paint job. We thought a screen would be nice around the deck, but after staying at another house just down the hill that has a screen we realized that all a screen does is trap bugs in, prohibiting you from even turning a light on. Trust me having an open deck is the way to go! Another awesome thing about this place is that there are about 5 restaurants that you can take the ferry to, right in Marigot Bay! Pelican House is a really fun/relaxing place to stay. We spent sleepless nights drinking Marigot Sunsets and we spent quiet nights watching the Marigot sun set. I think the house is a great place to escape the more common St. Lucian all-inclusives. Experience island culture!
