The Resort at Pelican Hill

The Resort at Pelican Hill is on South Pelican Hill Road in Newport Coast. It is a fifteen-minute walk from the Pelican Hill Golf Club and twenty-five minutes by foot from the trails at Crystal Cove State Park.

This hotel prioritizes seclusion over proximity to the local commerce at Fashion Island. While the rest of the coast leans into the bustle of urban retail, the property uses a sprawling layout designed for isolation. It trades the constant motion of a city hotel for a series of private villas and a central pool. It is the better choice for those who prefer their commute to be measured in garden paths rather than traffic, especially when the alternative is fighting for a parking space in the crowded lots closer to the water.
