Beachside Wedding

I can only think of two complaints: one, the size of the bathroom, and two, the fact that you had to pay for beach chairs. The bathrooms were very small but there was an additional vanity with a sink and mirror outside the bathroom you could use to bet ready at. You did have to pay to rent chairs on the beach. After paying so much money for a flight, car, and hotel paying for a chair seemed like kind of a rip off. The rooms were great-all gulf views! The service was extremely friendly. Wonderful continental breakfast!

Just at the end of the road is Flounder's restaurant. They have the best key lime pie! It's huge so be prepared to share or take lots back to the hotel with you!

Great view, great place, would return

The only drawback to this experience was the fact that my stay was too short. Beautiful view, clean comfortable room, acommodating while not intrusive staff....hated to leave.

Stay there a lot

This is the third time we have spent our vacation here. Great overall....When booking on this website, not guaranteed of getting the room we wanted. The staff on the next day, went over and above to help and moved us to a higher view level.

Nice Long Weekend

Had a great time, staff was great and breakfast was perfect for me. Location was on the quiet side which we also liked. Staff kept us up to date on incoming hurricane which we appreciated very much. If we return to Pensecola Beach I would stay at this hotel again. My best to the staff going through the next few days with the weather.

Great Beach Weekend

We planned a quick weekend getaway and were able to check in 2 hours early. The room was clean and had a nice balcony with two chairs and a great view of the beach. Liked that there were two sinks in the room - one in and one outside of the batroom. There were plenty of beach towels and it was very easy to get down to the beach. We rented chairs and were able to go easily between the hotel and beach all day. It is not walking distance from any restaurants or bars and requires a short drive. Overall the hotel was very clean and updated, not musty like how other beach hotels can get. There was also free wifi and an extensive breakfast. I would stay here again.

it's a short drive to restaurants and shopping but if you're here to spend time on the beach this is the perfect place. The beach as not too crowded and the area was clean.
