you could be put in either one. you will find out once you get to the airport i should imagine and if not you will find out once your there. they are both really nice so you shouldnt be too botherd. and i dont think by just emailing them (after booking if im correct) you will get a pool view... you might of had to request on booking for this.

I have booked with globespan for ocas/pelicanos, last time we went we were told which hotel we were allocated when we arrived, unfortunately, that was a room which overlooked the indoor market so this time I have e mailed hotel and asked for a pool view and they have replied saying that they will do their best to comply with our request.

Make sure you ask for a reply when you e mail

I have been to this hotel twice, and was allocated the Pelicanos both times, most people with a family where put in the Pelicanos when we were there in June last year. I wrote to the hotel and emailed them as i wanted a low floor, i had a reply by letter saying my request had been noted, it did no good what so ever has we were given a room on the 14th floor on arrival. We were moved the next morning after asking for a different floor. We spoke to people who had been put in the ocas and asked to move to the Pelicanos, most had to wait days before a room was available. I dont think there is much difference between the hotels, but there are only 2 lifts in the Ocas so if you are on a high floor could be a problem. It is an excellent hotel and even if you are in the ocas it is not too far to the pelicanos pool. Just get there early for the sun beds.
