Host was welcoming and took care of everything I needed. A super crazy cold front came through for the weekend I was there and Cindy provided me with a space heater, and extra blankets! Would stay there again.

Excellent location. You’re a 15-minute drive from pretty much everything you’d want to see and do. Property was spotless and very comfortable. If you like a bathtub you are out of luck but I’m a shower guy so

Pensacola stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was clean and well stocked. Very spacious and quit neighborhood. The only complaint I would have is the stairs sway when you go up and down them. Would definitely stay here again.

The check in process was very easy and the location is great! Very close to downtown Pensacola and comfortably houses 3 people. The property was also very clean and had a good sized kitchen. Only a 15 minute drive from the beach!

Lovely stay, and very considerate host

My mother and I stayed in Pensacola at the Gulf Coast BNB. Everything was clean, and we had everything we needed to enjoy our time. Only minor negative was that the balcony faces a very busy, noisy road.

Cute but old/historic

Its a cute apartment and very convenient to downtown. The apartment is old and could use some upgrades. The neighborhood seemed pretty safe. The check in process was very simple no complaints.

Exactly what we were looking for!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was super cute! The porch was very spacious. Only negative was it was on a busy main road so not as quite as I would prefer. Was able to walk down town for dinner each night. Was about a 15 minute drive to Pensacola beach which was perfect! Overall great place for a fun couples get away!
