Flamingo Pad: Dog Friendly, Downtown, Pensacola Beach!

Welcome to our East Pensacola Heights “Flamingo Pad”. A two-bedroom, one-bath cottage that features lots of natural light and original hardwood flooring. Bring along your four-legged friends (pet fee required)- they are sure to enjoy the large, fenced backyard while you relax in our patio furniture and enjoy the gas grill! My brother is the gardener. If you enjoy organic veggies, fruits, etc I can arrange a tour of his pride and joy, located directly behind the Flamingo Pad. Just minutes from Downtown Pensacola where we’re known as the “Festival City of the South”, there is always something to do. With easy access to I-110, be sure to head over to Pensacola Beach and Naval Air Station while you’re here! Please make sure to pay the pet fee of $100; if a pet stays with us undisclosed, a penalty fee of $100 is charged to your account.

East Pensacola Heights is a fantastic neighborhood to walk, run, bicycle. People are friendly. We have Apple Market grocery, New Your Deli, Magnolias and Jerry's (southern cooking). Walking distance to Texar Bayou, to view beautiful sunsets.

This is my personal home, with a Doxie in residence. However, we will not be here when you have reserved the home. Complete fenced in back-yard makes us dog friendly! Huge garden "Food Forest" behind home, belongs to my brother. My Home is Your Home!

Contactless check-in. Don't hesitate to contact me, if you need anything. When I am in town, I will be staying in the mom's home directly behind this cottage.

One bedroom is locked off, as it is used for a home office. The rest of the home is all yours, no sharing with anyone else.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

Loved it! Perfect location, quiet neighborhood, adorable roomy cottage, beautifully landscaped front and backyard- great for dogs and kids. Walk a couple of blocks to restaurants and coffee shop, 5 min drive to downtown, and less than 15 min to Pensacola beach (the drive is beautiful crossing over 3 bridges). Easy check in and out and responsive host. Will be back!

Great vacation memories

Loved our time here! The check in process was super easy, had everything we needed and reasonably distanced from things to do. I also loved it being dog friendly and the home was complete with some dog friendly items, including toys, which we had actually forgotten to bring.
Thank you! ❤️

Cozy and Clean

The house was very nice and the yard was great. Our 4 legged friends loved the fenced back yard and playing with Boots next door. The neighbors were quite friendly, also. It was a nice size for the two of us along with our 2 dogs.

We felt comfortable and the neighborhood was great. We took many long walks and the location was close to the beach, stores, downtown and restaurants. We would like to visit again.

Great weekend and place to rest

Our long weekend in Pensacola, especially during the Blue Angels' homecoming air show, could not have gone better! Checking in and the guidance provided after arriving were simple, straight forward, and Cynthia was readily available for any questions. After a long day out enjoying Pensacola or maybe getting too much sun, this was a great place to wind-down and prepare for the next day! No need to worry about it not being on the beach, its located perfectly to be close enough to everything you'd want. Also, if you hang out in the back yard, you'll likely meet the friendly dog next door, Boots. Thank you Cynthia for a great place to stay this weekend!

Great Little House

My friend and I stayed at the Flamingo Pad for a short weekend sewing retreat. The house had the space we needed for our sewing projects and was overall clean. There were a few small downsides, which are to be expected when renting a private property, that potential renters might want to know about. The hot water ran out quickly and one of the beds was so firm it was very difficult to sleep in. Despite this it was an overall good experience.

Fun beach bungalow

Older but very cute beach bungalow. Comfortable bed, plenty of hot water. TV in living room only. Hostess provided a nice bottle of wine and advised us that early check in was available. A few blocks from Pensacola Bay. Very happy with my stay.

This was a great place to stay with two dogs that require a ton of exercise. The fenced in yard and friendly dog neighbor was great for my dogs as well as the nearby parks and dog friendly beaches. We had a fantastic time and will come again!

This is a beautiful home. Very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood is very nice, and very nice neighbors. We really enjoyed our stay. We will stay again when we come back. I also recommend visiting Cindy's brother's home and touring his organic garden. It was awesome!

Great Location!

What we loved the most about this property was its location. Everyone knows Pensacola has great beaches, but Pensacola has so much more to offer. The beautiful old magnolia, pine and oak trees line the streets. There are beautiful old homes and historic sites. This property was warm and cozy. It was an easy walk to few great places to eat. The owner provided great communication. We hope to be returning to this property in the not too distant future. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Cozy, charming, quaint, & homey!

Met our expectations. We were previously Pensacola residence and very familiar with this area. VRBO home was as advertised. Cynthia was 100% on top of communication and assistance. Her brother lives behind the property and was very pleasant to talk to and was especially helpful after I broke the entry door lock key =) . Had a nice backyard to hangout with grill and patio heater, but we didnt get a chance to utilize it. We were able to enjoy the kitchen after shopping at Joe Patti's seafood. Best part was proximity to Agapi restaurant! Would stay here again.
