*There is NO Washer/Dryer in this home* Located in the Historic North Hill District of Downtown Pensacola in a century-old Victorian home, “Shore Break” is full of charm. From our original hardwood flooring to the bright green bathroom, this space is cute and quaint, great for a getaway. Just minutes from Downtown Pensacola and walking distance to the bustling Palafox Street, you will have plenty to explore! This spot allows easy access to I-110, Pensacola Beach and Naval Air Station. Providing you with a fully stocked kitchen, toiletries, linens, and beach supplies, you’ll likely have everything you need for your vacation in this little apartment! Be sure to check the Pensacola event calendar - we are known as the “Festival City of the South” and there is always something going on.
This stunning cottage is steps from the very best Pensacola has to offer. We are located within the downtown Historical area. The cottage is at the back of a Victorian home located on a busy, Pensacola street. There is potential for traffic noise. Great antique stores, wine bars, beer brew pubs, restaurants, boutiques, and shopping are all a short walk away. Within a 20 minute walk straight down Palafox to the water (Bay) and marina. Stroll the area, or catch Uber to downtown! Welcome to your home away from home.
It’s likely you won’t see me during your stay, which allows you more privacy and convenience. However, I am here anytime you need to reach out. If you need anything or have questions, just send me a message via Airbnb and I’ll be quick to respond. My real estate company is located in Suite A, with people there during office hours. Sometimes I am actually staying in Ste A to the front of the big home. Drop by if you need anything.

It’s a great little spot to stay if you’re not wanting to pay for beachfront. The owner is great and the location is really convenient with a lot of cool restaurants nearby. I’ll 100% stay here again.
We had a great time! The area was nice and we were within walking distance of a bunch of neat restaurants. Plus it was only about 20 minutes from the beach! You can’t beat it for the price!

Reviewer Comments:
The property is exactly as pictured. It was a great stay for a month. The location is great with easy, quick access to Downtown which is host to many wonderful restaurants and bars. The property manager was easily accessible and provided great service.
For a mini vacation this rental was good. Couch is very uncomfortable and the tv did not allow for many channel access. But overall we enjoyed our stay.
Couldn't reach host by phone upon arrival. neighbor was in the parking lot and said host was out of town. However, we were able to get into the apartment. Apartment was clean and spacious.
I've stayed in many rentals, good and bad. The rental although small was well kept, clean, and located in a walkable area... perfect . I was very impressed with the amenities. There was no need for me to bring all that I did, hair dryer, coffee, wine, soap, etc., because it was all there to include beach toys. Thank you for taking the time to make sure your customers were comfortable and taken care of. GOOD JOB!
This was our first time staying in this apartment and we loved it. The room had lots of space and the bed was super comfy. Lots of closet space also. We will definitely stay here again!

It was our pleasure to host you and we're delighted that you had a great stay. Thank you for your kind review and for being such a respectful guest!
Over all the place was nice and cozy. The water pressure was very weak but ok. TV was very limited channels to watch unless you have a Roku account. Maybe I could have reached out to owner and got a pass but I didn't. Also the dinning room ac would start about 30sec and then would cut off for awhile but never reached out about that either because it wasn't to bad in the place. The bedroom ac worked great. Cute quite little place. Enjoyed our stay.
We loved the area and our unit was perfect. The host was really great and shared some great spots to eat that did not disappoint! Perfect location to walk to Palafox.

We look forward to hosting you again! Thank you for the review!
Very convenient to downtown and not far from the beaches, though Pensacola is pretty compact. Property was clean with all the necessary amenities. There is a small outdoor seating area that’s fine for a glass of wine after dinner, but I would’t plan on grilling or having dinner out there.

This is a super cute, quiet location close to everything! I loved the welcome book with some history of the cottage—so cool! We even had a bottle of wine waiting for us! The bed was very comfortable as well! Highly recommend!

Happy to hear that you enjoyed Shore Break - and found the charm of the history here. Come back anytime, Erika!
The location is great and communication with the property manager was exceptional. The furniture in the living area was different than pictured on the website, but it was okay. Being from Pensacola, we were only their to sleep and shower. Location, Location, Location.

Great option instead of a hotel. Clean, quiet, had everything we needed in the kitchen. Will stay there again if we find ourselves needing a place in Pensacola.

Happy to hear that Shore Break was just what you needed. Come back and visit!
This is the perfect property for single or two guests. Good decor and super convenient to everything! Easy to get Ubers immediately and only 15-20 minutes from the beach. A bottle of moscato and wine glasses waiting upon arrival was a nice touch! Loved this one! I will be back!
