About this property

Seabird Shack: Dog Friendly, Downtown Pensacola!

Welcome to the Pensacola bungalow “Seabird Shack”. A spacious 3-bedroom, 1-bath historic home that features amenities, linens and hardwood flooring. Bring along your four-legged friends (pet fee required) so they can enjoy the fenced-in backyard while you relax on the patio. Pensacola is "the oldest city established in America" and it all began downtown. Enjoy our rich history and beautiful white beach while you visit us. Just minutes from downtown, this spot also features easy access to Pensacola Beach, Naval Air Station, and many other Pensacola hotspots! 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!

Tearing down the old homes and building new shotgun style homes are all around our Seabird Shack. The downtown Pensacola area is changing. Lots of new restaurants, bars, attractions and a minor league baseball stadium. Home to the Navy Blue Angels precision flying team (watch them practice on Tues/Wed am), 2017 Southern Champion Blue Wahoos Double A professional baseball team, and plenty of special events will keep you busy while you are here.

Fantastic location to our downtown Pensacola area. Historical to New homes, make sure you visit Joe Patti's' Seafood Shop, catch a Blue Wahoos baseball game or learn about the history of Pensacola while strolling the downtown streets. Of course, you are about 15 mins to our famous White Sandy Pensacola Beach. We Live Where Others Vacation.

Great stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was amazing, the only issue we ran into was the washer was unbalanced but that was the only issue. The beds were comfortable and check in and out was easy as pie

Great place for a great price!

This was a nice place for us to stay, we enjoyed the little porch and the inside was comfortable. There were cute kitties across the street and the location was rather convenient as we wanted to be downtown, close to NAS Pensacola and the beach. We did ask about an early check in and were told we would be allowed in asap. We did not get in until after 4. That was a bit disappointing but we figured it out.Overall, the space worked for us as 3 adults, it was clean and check out was easy-sweep and lock up.

Located conveniently close to downtown, and not far at all from the beach! House smelled wonderful and clean when we went in. Cosmetically a little outdated, but was just fine for us.

Enjoyed our stay.

House was well kept and clean. Communication and check in was a breeze. House was stocked with everything needed. Beds were clean and comfy but two are very very squeaky. Neighborhood is quiet with a nice park a block away. I would book again and recommend.

Evacuated from Hurricane Helene

We quickly evacuated from Hurricane Helene and booked this trip the day before we needed to leave. The property manager was very responsive and allowed us to get in early. The property was fine for what we needed and the manager was very accommodating. Wished there had been a few more pots/pans to be able to cook meals. If you plan to stay and prepare your meals, you will need to bring a baking sheet, aluminum foil, etc.

Great place!

Great place, clean and had lots of fluffy towels.. great place for people with pets like us! The host is very responsive and nice.. only thing I would change is the bed situation. The coolest bedroom had a full size bed and the box springs was broke so it sunk on the middle. But for the price it was a excellent place with a great location to downtown and only 15 minutes away from the beach!

We had small difficulties during our stay. They were addressed or management's reached soon to address or try to address them. We had no problems except for the issue with cleanliness, some clothes being left behind in the dryer and the dishwasher quitting working on our second day there.

Checking out Pensacola!

This property served its purpose for us. We were close to downtown, Perdido Key, and Gulf Breeze. We were wanting to familiarize ourselves to the various neighborhoods in the area as we plan to buy a house there. This house is actually in between 2 houses that are in very poor condition. However, you find that a lot in this area. We had no problems with it.

The beds were great! and I had everything i needed when it came time to cook. So I think I will be a regular, as I am in Pensacola all the time. Cynthia was great and communicated well!

Fantastic Location

When we first got there we could not enter because the lock box combo had been changed. Unbeknownst to our host, LOL! Anyway, she was there in a heartbeat and figured out the problem quickly. We really appreciated that and also the suggestion she gave us to go to Perdido Beach rather than Pensacola Beach on that Saturday because of the crowds. And we greatly appreciate that. Due to our son is special needs and crowd loudness is very hard for him to endure. That being said, food is all super close, pubs, the downtown historic village area. Seriously a great location. Anywhere you needed to go you could be there in 2 to 7 minutes. Gave us a great home base to go exploring, eat at some great restaurants and be able to bring leftovers back with us. We all slept well. We really did. Definitely will be rebooking when we find ourselves in the area again. Highly suggest. The house is much larger than what you think. More than enough room. But do know there is only one TV in the house and it's in the sitting room. So bring your tablet or phone for bedroom viewing.

Clean & Tidy

The house was clean and well stocked with necessities. There was even wine! However, it wasn’t quite as close to downtown as we had hoped. Also, since it was just my husband and I we had plenty of places to sit comfortably, but if we had more people with us it wouldn’t have been as comfortable.

Lights Out

We went to have a great time and we did. It was the wedding of the century at the Pensacola Yacht Club. Everything was fine however the lights throughout the house were a mess. Worked occasionally or not at all, likely a safety hazard. Regardless, the place was clean and ok. Accommodated our German Shepard very well and she behaved well.

Centrally located to all my interests.

The property was clean and inviting. Many things were provided that we needed. Roomy house close enough to downtown, beaches, and the naval base. We had a wonderful time and the house made a great place to rest to go out and do it all again every day we were there. When we weren’t running around collecting shells we hung out in the backyard. Great place! I will be returning. Thank you!
