The house! Just gorgeous and the staff super attentive! So big on details! From the rooms decor and comfort features to the breakfast and snacks. Made our mini getaway feel like we stayed with family. So close to fishing and swimming and a great selection of food close by. Will return!
My overall experience was terrific, owner was responsive and very engaging, just friendly as you would want.
food was good and spot location is terrific to fish or take a stroll by the water, did I mention just a peaceful place, very calming.
Great relaxing trip!

We absolutely loved every moment of our stay here. The hosts are incredible, the breakfast is delicious, and the beds are comfortable. Couldn’t ask for a better, more enjoyable stay!
We were looking for a quiet weekend away from Houston. This B&B had everything we wanted and more: beautiful location on Matagorda bay, cozy and tastefully decorated suite, delightful hosts who served a variety of healthy tasty breakfasts throughout the weekend, and great seafood a couple of blocks away! Paula and Theresa have created a “welcome home’ environment that we so appreciated!

Neat historical property! Excellent breakfast! Friendly innkeeper and interesting helpful owner. Free WiFi. We’ll be back again.
We enjoyed the relaxing stay at the Peaceful Pelican. We stayed in one of the houses towards the back of the property. Theresa was wonderful and made an amazing breakfast. The views at breakfast were serene. We will be going again!!
This is a lovely B&B with a calm view of the bay. Palacios is far from the hustle so it’s perfect for a retreat and this is the place you’ll want to stay at. Paula, the owner, is personable and makes the place homey and welcoming. The cute cats fascinated my family. The breakfast was hearty and delicious. A great way to kick back. The suite on the first floor is quiet and has a bath tub and shower. The king bed was comfortable. We slept like babies. While the place may need some cosmetic touch ups it stays cosy and inviting. I would recommend for couples or singles looking for quiet or for a small family of 3. Lots of fishing spots all around.
This is an incredibly unique property. I happened to be there at probably the worst time of the year--not, unfortunately on vacation, but rather for business, but still found the experience very positive. The home itself is lovely and very well kept. However the most important reason to try the Pelican is to meet the owner, who is lovely. She knows the area, has plenty of great suggestions about what there is to do, where to eat, and the breakfast she served was amazing. If you are heading in this direction, or even if you are not planning to, try the Pelican!
Everything was great about the place. Not much in terms of restaurants or activities to do in the area, but that's not really anything the hotel owner can control.
The residence was in excellent condition with beautiful old fashioned accomodations. Breakfast was very good plus with a little park and the bay right across the street for an early morning stroll. Palacios was a fun little getaway but peaceful town. If we get the chance, we will be back!
