Besides the two reserved spots in front of the Purple Pelican there is also overflow parking throughout the complex. You can be ticketed if you cross Hwy 361 on a golf cart. The Purple Pelican is pet free, if you bring a pet your reservation will be cancelled.

The best weather source for anybody to use is nhc noaa gov for tropical-related storm information. This government agency
is not in the media business and will not sensationalize the situation as Social Media and News outlets tend to do.

The Purple Pelican is not in the weather prediction business and as we all know these situations are always very fluid and changes happen.

Unless there is a call for a mandatory evacuation of the city of Port Aransas or Mustang Island it is business as usual.

We always suggest that guests purchase trip insurance to protect their investment from potential interruptions.

Great time had by all!

We enjoyed are yearly family vacation at the Purple Pelican. It was roomy enough for 5 children ( ages 1-11) and 5 adults. The pack n play and child cot came in handy. The 3 bathrooms really came in handy. Love the large covered patio/breeze way. Kristin was quick to respond to our concerns. Great stay!
