Central Asia Romantic Holidays

I’ve stayed in several hotels in South Beach and the Pelican is the best. By far the best. The food is excellent and the staff is so friendly and helpful. For the price, it is a superb value. Plus it is a smaller hotel which means it is not overrun with visitors.

The hotel is in a great location but was disappointed in my room. The closet was more like a cupboard and I had to get creative on hanging my clothes. There is no chest for drawers. The lighting switches are confusing but figured them out. Even on the full lighting, the room is dim. The staff was great.

⚠️ FAIR WARNING to anyone thinking about booking a stay at THE LEEF. We stayed for 3 days/2 nights. The room itself is cute, and while there’s no microwave—which is inconvenient—it wasn’t a huge deal. What IS a huge deal is that we found TWO ROACHES in our room on the very first night. I reported it the following morning, but they weren’t able to provide us with a different room. Instead, I was offered cleaning services for that day and one day of free parking (aka $10) as compensation. However, on the next morning - checkout day, we found TWO MORE ROACHES. Four roaches during a two-night stay is absolutely unacceptable. A hotel should be able to provide guests with a clean, pest-free room, and the fact that we continued finding roaches after reporting the issue is disgusting. And don’t expect much when it comes to customer service. The so-called “lobby” is essentially just a screen with a virtual representative. When you have an actual issue that requires assistance, it makes the experience even more frustrating. I genuinely hope no one else has to worry about accidentally bringing roaches home with them after staying here. Do yourself a favor: if you value cleanliness and want a pest-free stay, DON’T STAY AT THE LEEF.
