About The Pelican Post at Anna Maria Island Inn
The Pelican Post at Anna Maria Island Inn offers a convenient and affordable place to stay near the beach and local attractions. Guests appreciate its great location, being within walking distance of Bridge Street, shopping stores, restaurants, bars, and the fishing pier. The rooms are generally clean, spacious, and comfortable, making it suitable for families and solo travelers alike. The property features a nice pool and hot tub area in the center, which many guests enjoy, although some found the hot tub not to get hot enough during their stay. The pool was recently updated and is well-maintained, providing a relaxing spot to unwind. The outdoor area, including chairs and a grill, is a favorite feature, offering a nice breeze and enough space for families to sit and relax. However, some reviews mention that the outside lighting is too dark at night and suggest adding grab bars in the showers for added safety.
Service experiences vary; while check-in is reported to be easy and staff generally helpful, there have been issues with the room key locks, causing delays and frustrations for some guests. One guest experienced a 50-minute wait outside their room due to key issues, which negatively impacted their stay. Maintenance staff was friendly and quick to assist in resolving problems, but communication from management about these issues was not always satisfactory. Additionally, some guests noted the sofa bed was old and could use replacing, and the cleaning crew could improve by cleaning outside areas and the pool/grill area more regularly. Despite minor setbacks, most visitors found their stay to be positive and expressed willingness to return, appreciating the value, location, and overall environment of The Pelican Post.
Excellent location to enjoy restaurants and bars in bridge street area. Walk across street to the beach and then come back and get in the hot tub and pool. Clean rooms. Easy check in and key wristbands waiting for you at the door. Very responsive to any questions Definitely coming back
