Great location! My son and I ran the Pensacola Half Marathon that started at Wahoo Stadium, just a few blocks away. It’s also an easy walk to Palafox Street. We made a long weekend out of it and had a great time. The house was clean and cute.

This home is beautiful and well maintained. Extremely convenient location in Downtown Pensacola where you can walk to Palafox area for the night life. Several great restaurants in this area to get local seafood, watch your favorite sports and even a swanky whiskey bar or wine bar to just chill and relax. A new park just down the street on the beautiful water to enjoy. We will definitely be back again.
Beautiful view of front of home
Our guys had enough space to cook us breakfast for Valentine’s Day.

The house was tastefully decorated, well equipped and a convenient drive to everything in Pensacola. The neighborhood was very walkable. The front bedroom with the king bed faces a busy street. If you plan on sleeping in that room and you are a light sleeper, I recommend ear plugs. Otherwise, we had no issues and would stay again!

Wonderful stay

Overall this place was a wonderful stay! The description of the property was accurate- it was very clean. There’s a small access to a small beach across the street but the drive to Pensacola beach was about 20 minutes. A quick walk to many restaurants and things to do!

Great Spot Near Downtown

The Bruce Beach is a nice relaxing spot near Nauti-Cola. Quiet conveniently located near downtown Pensacola. We were able to get to places via Uber quickly. Property Manager was amazing and very helpful in finding places to go, things to do, and where to eat. Overall enjoyable vacation!
