In the picturesque town of Porto Ercole, on the southeastern shore of the island of Monte Argentario, is Il Pellicano. This truly beautiful resort, situated romantically on a cliff overlooking the sea, is a gem of Tuscany, Italy. With simple and elegant style, each room is designed with flowing architecture reminiscent of a charming old Italian cottage. Brightly lit, with pure white walls and warm brown stone floors, the atmosphere is airy and open with large double doors leading to the warm coast. The rustic luxury of this hotel is sure to enchant and delight, and when you step out in the early morning to view the sun rising over Tuscany, you may never want to leave. This is life at Il Pellicano, and falling in love with Italy has never been so easy.

A beautiful resort and a true special treat. The grounds are lovely, rooms well appointed and staff delightful. The food is very good although on meatless Monday limited choices for people who dont eat fish. Lots of billing mistakes so double check. Either way, we loved the experience and highly recommend.

The hotel is aesthetically pleasing; however, the service provided is merely average and the costs are exorbitantly high. The shuttle service to a nearby village, located just 15 minutes from the hotel, is priced at 120 euros, which is quite unreasonable. Spa treatments exceed 300 euros and do not offer anything extraordinary. I have experienced superior spa hotels worldwide, none of which were as costly as this one. Moreover, the presence of bees poses a significant inconvenience, as they prevent guests from enjoying breakfast or lunch at certain times. The bathroom is excessively humid and lacks proper ventilation, resulting in it becoming drenched after showering. Furthermore, the beds emit a damp odor. Given the premium pricing, the margin for error should be nonexistent; unfortunately, this standard is not met.

I traveled to Il Pellicano with my 2 adult daughters. We stayed in a garden suite that was so spacious and comfortable and had a beautiful courtyard too. This is by far my favorite hotel. The service is exceptional. You don’t feel like you’re staying in a resort, but in your own villa. Within the first day the servers remember everything, what type of water you drink, what coffee you prefer, what sun lounger do you like? I mean, everything. The food is incredible. From the apertivo bites, to the beach side found to the restaurants it’s all delicious, fresh and expertly prepared. We did a cooking class where Chef Paolo taught us how to make pasta. We had the help of our server Christian who translated for us and we had so much fun. I hope to return here…. Many times !

Great experience. Lovely rooms Staff cordial Great gym Pool v small. Long way down to sea side. Make sure you book a chair Had a massive run in with staff after I was given a chair by a staff member but then got told to move because someone else booked that chair!! I had to move No one used the chair!! Very expensive food so be ready but quality v good Last hour was very sad. Booked a transfer to Rome 500 euro. Small Mercedes came - couldn’t fit bags Massive blow up with manager who said it was my problem They wanted to charge me another 500 to move bags in seperate car! After spending thousands on hotel I found this ordinary Anyway - nice but wouldn’t go back
