The floors may be a bit creaky and door frames a bit crooked in the old house, but it doesn't matter in the least. Edith, your hostess at The Peaceful Pelican, makes your stay just what it should be - a pleasant respite away from the cares of the world. Her breakfasts are wonderful and the conversations at the dining... More

Several of my classmates stayed at the Pelican while in Palacios for our high school class reunion. We loved it here. Plenty of room for us to spread out and visit. I stayed in the garden room, it was very clean and comfy. Breakfast was delicious and the views are amazing. Thank you for a great weekend!

On our 7th honeymoon celebration, my wife and I totally dug the house, its furnishings, location, ambiance, and history. The breakfast was surpassed only by our congenial hostess’s inspiring tales and wealth of area heritage info.

My girlfriends and I stay at this b&b every year. It is a great relaxing trip. We are in 7th grade and pay our own fee. The rooms are priced wonderfully! Some of the luxuries at the site: hidden hammock cove, benches by the water, wonderful breakfast, and awesome local restraunts! I would recommend Tran's, PMR, and Outrigger for dinner.... More

Edith was an excellent host and we thorughly enjoyed our visit. Our room on the second floor was spacious and had a great view of the bay. I did notice that there was no television either in the common area or the individual rooms -- however; for us, this was a plus. They do have wi-fi so this should compensate... More

Edith, the Inn Keeper is a great host and the place is a 100 year old charming victorian that has been maintained pretty well. The bathrooms were excellent, and the house is kept very spic and span. Palacios is quiet, and the walks on the sea wall in the mornings and evenings was just great. Edith's gourmet breakfasts are out... More

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Not sure if it's clear on their website but they do not have TV in any of the rooms nor in the common area. They do not have radio either so it is very quiet and with five rooms in the house, there is no privacy (if you know what I mean). Also the B&B is on the... More

WOW! We enjoyed it so much! Four of my girlfriends and I stayed here in the summer! It was so relaxing after months of school! DO NOT EXIT This WEBSITE WITHOUT MAKING RESERVATIONS! Tehe!

This old house is spotless, grand, elegant, and fun, with fabulous views of Matagorda Bay. Edith is wonderful with breakfasts and with wine at cocktail hour, and VERY accomodating. Too bad she doesn't do dinners!! I have stayed here several times, and now wouldn't stay anywhere else when I am in the area!! This B&B is the best.

If you are searching for a coastal destination away from the crowds, this is the perfect spot. The B&B is right on the water and all of the rooms and common areas have wonderful views. Edith, the owner, is a fine host. The town of Palacios may not have that much to offer, but it is a refreshing break from... More
