The Resort at Pelican Hill – Newport Beach
COASTAL SPLENDOR AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE
Perched upon 504 acres of unrivaled coastal beauty, Pelican Hill® is set apart as a world unto itself, offering a feast for the senses and a blissful summer retreat for family and friends. Our private Villas and Bungalow Guest Rooms & Suites are all spacious and casually elegant, with an attentive staff there to anticipate your needs at every turn. Resort amenities are designed with you in mind, providing all the comforts of home with the activities and ultimate relaxation of a vacation away.
From the moment of arrival, you’ll experience a place like no other. The relaxed comfort of Pelican Hill® takes inspiration from the work of 16th century Italian architect Andrea Palladio, best known for his grand homes across the Venetian countryside. Like the Mediterranean, the sun-drenched climate of Southern California allows for indoor spaces to open up to the outdoors and panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean.
ARCHITECTURE
The architectural style of the Resort is inspired by the works of Andrea Palladio, an Italian architect from the 16th century. The beauty and harmony you feel is the result of thousands of small details- from the Italian plaster finish that enhances with age to the hand-made terra cotta finials sculpted by a master ceramicist.
LANDSCAPE
The overall vision was to create a Northern Italian environment. Groves of olive trees, rows of lavender, cypress, fig and pine trees plus 45 foot Canary palms grace the Resort, evoking a timeless, authentic landscape. A natural setting that relaxes and invites strolling throughout the grounds.
Each detail of the Resort’s timeless, classic appearance has been created with the utmost care and attention to detail. From placing 1.1 million hand-cut glass mosaic tiles that line the bottom of Coliseum Pool to planting 100 year old olive trees to add authenticity to the Mediterranean landscape, each piece of the Resort is thoughtfully crafted to create a timeless, classic look inspired by the Italian renaissance.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is about ensuring a positive future. These changes will not help you make a putt or give you extra yards off the tee, but you’ll rest easy knowing that sustainable decisions have been made so that Pelican Hill will be available, and in great shape for future generations.
Each one-story Bungalow Guest Room or Bungalow Suite features a limestone fireplace, private terrace, most with ocean views, hand-hewn wood beam ceiling, marble bath and adjacent parking. They are a spacious 847 to 1,634 square feet.
Our Villas are set in an exclusive, gated enclave and are a more intimate way to enjoy The Resort with a private clubhouse and pool, butler service and dedicated staff. Ranging from 2,193 to 3,581 square feet, The Villas offer two, three or four bedrooms and expansive ocean-view terraces.
