It is definitely a Bromeliad. They are not related to succulents but are similar in their care. They require bright light and very little fertilizer. Let it dry out between waterings. If you want more info go to BSI.org (Bromeliad society international) Interesting fact: pineapples and Spanish moss are also in the Bromeliad family!!
