Don’t hesitate to stay here. My room was clean and had a perfect view of the ocean. I was able to walk the beach to several restaurants that were fantastic. I also walked to stores and other restaurants all within 15 minutes walk. I’ll definitely stay here again!

Relaxing stay

Everything was perfect besides two things. The tv channels really suck. Yes I know we are there to relax but we like to watch tv to relax as we settle in for the night. The other thing is there wasn't a microwave in the room to reheat food up that we got for the diner there at the resort. Other then that it was perfect

Good experience!

It was a great place! Clean room and friendly people. The restaurant looked nice but the steak was over budget for a roadtrip. My husband was unhappy about the non-smoking grounds, but he could have went on the beach to throw away his cigarettes like others did! That was disappointing because if they had an ashtray next to beach for butts this wouldn’t be a thing. Staff were very respectful and kind…

Great stay at Pensacola Beach Resort! We had to travel do to a death in the family and this was such a nice place to come back and unwind after dealing with the stress. Beautiful beach and good food from the restaurant. I really liked the parking garage as well, it kept us dry when it was raining.
