Pelican Grand Beach Resort Launches The Holiday Suite


In Partnership with Draper James and King of Christmas, a one-of-a-kind suite experience bringing holiday nostalgia and timeless style and festive charm to Fort Lauderdale’s Coast 

Ideally situated along the pristine shores of Fort Lauderdale, Pelican Grand Beach Resort is set to introduce The Holiday Suite — a one-of-a-kind, limited-time experience that transforms the resort’s premier rooftop Sky Suite into a festive coastal escape. Launching Dec. 1, 2025, through Jan. 3, 2026, The Holiday Suite was developed in collaboration with Draper James, the lifestyle brand founded by Reese Witherspoon, and King of Christmas, known for its iconic holiday trees and décor. The suite offers an unparalleled holiday experience that blends seasonal elegance with coastal charm.

“We are thrilled to be the host location for this extraordinary collaboration and to welcome guests to The Holiday Suite,” says TJ Pierri, general manager of Pelican Grand Beach Resort. “Creating unforgettable experiences and lasting memories is at the heart of what we aspire to do. We are truly honored to partner with these memorable partners to bring this experience to life.”

The suite reimagines cherished holiday traditions with a chic coastal twist, inviting guests into a festive retreat where King of Christmas trees sparkle beside plush Draper James holiday bedding, and every detail is adorned with elegant garlands, ornaments and Southern-inspired touches.

Guests booking The Holiday Suite receive an all-inclusive, luxury holiday experience featuring festive décor, curated wardrobe pieces, pampering spa treatments, and exclusive amenities designed for seasonal celebrations.

Package highlights include:

  • Sky Suite Accommodations: The rooftop Sky Suite is fully transformed with Draper James holiday bedding and décor, accented by festive touches from King of Christmas.

We’re thrilled to bring our signature Southern style to the Pelican Grand — offering guests a chance to truly live the Draper James lifestyle in a setting as beautiful as the season itself.” said Piper Parsley, vice president of brand marketing and eCommerce, Draper James.

“At King of Christmas, we love bringing the magic of the holidays to life. This year, we’re so excited to spread that joy to Pelican Grand Beach Resort. In collaboration with Draper James and Pelican Grand, we’ve designed the perfect cozy coastal Christmas suite – and we can’t wait for everyone to see it!” said Rachael Thomas, head of partnerships at King of Christmas.
