Thank you for your rental business. We have access to both the gulf and sound side. This house will sleep up to eight people with two kings, one queen and the secret room foldout. Please visit again soon. You and your family are always welcome.
Smooth check in and out, host was quick to answer questions, quiet area. We had 5 adults and there was more than enough room for us all. Nobody felt like they were on top of each other. We will return to this property in the future.

My home is a large townhome. I am thrilled that it was a good fit for your group. Please call on me again in the near future. You may enjoy the fall. The crowds are less and the water and temperatures are still warm. Most schools start early, such as August, thus less families travel in the fall. You and your group are always welcome. Please visit again soon.
The host was very attentive and checked in with us before, during and after our stay. I loved the house and beds were very comfortable. We loved the location. My favorite was sitting on the deck. Will be staying here again.

Thank you Stephanie. I hope you had the chance to watch a sunset from our community dock. My location gives you the best of both world, Gulf and Bayside of our skinny island. Please visit us again soon. The fall is a good time. The water is still warm, temp toasty but not as excessive and crowds are less. You and your family are always welcome. We want you back soon.
Great location, we have to be able to take the trolley, love the little local store, Host provided to wagons, chairs, and umbrellas, making it so convenient.
Great stay! House has everything you need and more. Carla was very communicative and a great host! House was spacious and very clean! We definitely plan to come back next summer
We stayed here for a total of seven days from July 5-12 for a baseball tournament for 16-18 year old boys. We were extremely satisfied during our stay. Busy week between baseball, 4th of July and the Blue Angels.

Yes, your visit was during the busiest week of the summer. I hope your team did well in the baseball tournament. The Blue Angels flew Wednesday through Saturday which is always a treat. Please call on me again soon. You and your family are always welcome.
Very nice property with lots of room. Close to the beach and just 2 miles from the boardwalk and restaurants and shopping. Ms Carla is so nice to work with. We would definitely stay at her home again.

I look forward to having you and your family back in the near future. The access to both sides of the island so close is a plus. We are close to the core of the island for fun but just far enough away to get away from the restaurant, bars and shops for some serenity.
The house is in a great neighborhood and the beach is only a few minutes walk away. The bayside is also beautiful.

Thank you for your return rental business! At this island getaway, enjoy the best of both worlds, the gulf side and the bayside of the island. Within a few steps, enjoy the emerald surf and sugar white sand on the gulf or experience a magnificent sunset from our community dock without the additional cost of a restaurant/bar tab. Please return again soon!
Great location and convenient to the beach
It would be nice to have a marked crosswalk for going across the main road
Carla was a great host and was prompt in answering questions and meeting needs.

Thank you so much.I think the location is great too. Having access to both sides of our skinny island is convenient. The best of both worlds, gulf and sound side.
Please visit again very soon.
After vacationing in Florida for several years we finally found a great townhome in Pensacola Beach to rent. It was excellent location near beach, stores, etc. Loved it and could make it our own.

Please visit us again as your home away from home. You and your family are always welcome. We are in a good location with access to both the gulf and the sound!
Thank you for your rental business.
Carla, our host, was amazing. Condo was exactly as presented. Her recommendations for shopping and restaurants were spot on. If we're back in Pensacola Beach, we'll be staying there!

Thank you so much. We look forward to your return. You and your family are always welcome. Please visit us again very soon! You know spring and summer are nice but fall, September and October, are months favored by many. The beach is less crowded, the weather is gorgeous and the water is still warm.
The home was as pictured. We had plenty of room with 2 adults and 3 teens. Owner was able to contact easily and responded quick with any questions we had. She had plenty of suggestions for restaurants. It’s a short walk across the road to get to the beach. And having 2 wagons and umbrellas and chairs was so helpful. We also all enjoyed the bicycles. Would def recommend this home for a great vacation. Would love to stay there again
We have been vacationing in Pensacola for 27 years and this was our first stay on this side of the island. It was a short walk to the beach and the sound was just steps away. The trolley stop was also very close. The kitchen was wonderful for cooking and had everything you could possibly ever need!

Spring and fall are also wonderful times to visit our breathtaking beautiful beaches. We want you back again soon. You and your family are always welcome.
The home is nice with 3 bedroom and a cool little secret room. The kitchen and living room are nice and spacious. The house was clean and well maintained. It's just a few steps feom the Sound and a small walk to the beach. We loved our vacation location. The 3 bathrooms were A.M.A.Z.I.N.G to have.
The best the about all of it was the owner. She is simply the best. She made this a great location!

The beach house was absolutely beautiful and our family enjoyed it so much. The owner was very helpful, very honest and listed everything accurately. I would highly recommend this property. We had a family emergency at the end of our stay and the property owner was wonderful to us throughout the entire time, even checking on us to make sure we got home safely. Thank you!

Thank you for your kind words as well as your rental business. I certainly enjoyed having your family stay in my home. Please return as soon as possible. You and your family are always welcome.
We had a wonderful stay at this house. Some of the kitchen appliances are a bit quirky. And, there should be rrom for groceries. But other than that it waa great.

I have a ton of extras in my home. I built it for myself with high end appliance and extras throught the home. My oven and microwave are made by Dacor, the Miele Italian cooktop is a touch pad, Jenn Air dishwasher and refridgerator plus a Dacor warming drawer. I even have a pot filler. All lights have dimmers and all fans have dimmers and remotes. The latest technology and extras takes a little learning curve but I have a manual on everything in the home plus tell my guest to call in advance and point out that my cooktop may need a bit of instruction. There is room for groceries for a weekly stay for sure. I also have several new streaming TV's.
If you want a beautiful high end kitchen and bathrooms, my home is for you. Nothing is just the basics here. Call me for a luxery stay!
Very comfortable place with recent nice renovations. Condo is away from hustle bustle but close enough. 10-15 minutes will get you wherever you need/want to go in Pensacola Beach or Gulf Breeze. Access to sound. Easy access to beach across road. Carla is a terrific owner. Great communication and she genuinely cares about your stay. We’ll definitely return to stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Carla Kesterson
I enjoy meeting peole from all over. It is fun to help them make a special occassion special. It may be an anniversary trip, graduation trip or simply a get away to unwind from the stressful jobs that most people work day to day to provide for their families.
Why they chose this property
Pensacola Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. It has the whitest sand and is known for the emerald color of the water. Once you get sand in your shoes, you will always want to return.
What makes this property unique
This is my second home, my little bit of paradise. I can't wait to get out of my fast paced city life to recharge at my beach and relax in my large spa tub. I built this for my relaxation. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
