This is an awesome property. It comes with amenities like paddleboard or bikes to cruise the beach. This is a go to stay every time I visit Pensacola. The location alone is enough to justify spending the money, which was reasonably cheap for being on the beach.

Beachy Bay Stay!

Perfect location at an affordable price point! This hotel had extremely friendly service, and offered an excellent free breakfast with an incredible staff! Walkable to the pier and many restaurants. However, I opted for door dash and the fire pit area to enjoy the amenities at the hotel. It was a perfect, relaxing stay!

The staff wore orange, you could tell that they worked as a team and took customer service seriously. Room was beautiful, nice and quiet. Great view. They let us rent bikes for free which was very convenient. Next to the beach and food was easy to get to. Highly recommend. We were all happy with our stay!
