About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Heated Pool Home. 7 Mins to the Beach! Arcade. Perfect retreat rain or shine!
Gulf Breeze, the gateway to Pensacola Beach, is the perfect location for spending the day at the beach and the evening in downtown Pensacola! Ride your bikes along Gulf Breeze's tranquil loop path before breakfast, lounge at the beach through the afternoon, and take in the night-life of Pensacola's Palafox Street in the evening all while enjoying the private luxury of this mid-century gem nestled within this pleasant coastal community. Of course, you'll have no reason leave this amazing pool home complete with it's own arcade which is bound to keep you and your family entertained, rain or shine! You can even enjoy the pool year round! In the chillier winter months, it can be heated for an additional fee or you can simply curl up by the gas fireplace. This home is perfect year-round for the Florida Panhandle!
The Emerald Coast water and white sand has no comparison, but you'll find so much to enjoy here beyond the beaches. Visit dozens of museums and historical sites in America's first city ranging from living history exhibits in downtown Pensacola, the imposing remains of Fort Pickens on Pensacola Beach, or the National Museum of Naval Aviation at NAS Pensacola. Embrace the finer things in life as you catch a symphony performance at the Saenger, a heart-rending love story at the Pensacola Opera, or an avant-garde experimental play at the Pensacola Little Theatre. Or take a hike along the start of the Florida Trail which stretches more than 1,500 miles from the Gulf Islands National Seashore through Big Cypress Preserve far south in the Everglades. The anglers in your family will appreciate the rich waters surrounding Gulf Breeze's Fairpoint peninsula with easy access via the fishing piers at the General Chappie James bridge, Bob Sikes bridge, and Shoreline Park. Or bring your boat and launch it at Gulf Breeze's boat ramps at the General Chappie James bridge or Shoreline Park. Whatever your interests, whatever your passions, you'll find more to explore and enjoy in beautiful Gulf Breeze.

Perfect place for the family Spring Break!
We all enjoyed the house and area! Hours were spent in the heated pool by all of us! The fenced backyard space was great for the grandkids and dogs. The house was spacious, the grandkids especially enjoyed the arcade room! One of the most relaxing Spring Breaks we've had!

Awesome Stay!
This house was absolutely perfect!! House, pool, grounds were in perfect condition and was just like the pictures. Our family of 3 generations had the best time!!! 4 grandkids LOVED their room, arcade and of course the pool - so did the adults. The added plus was the Airstream wasn't there so there was a large concrete lot, which equaled our own personal skate park!!! I would give 5 stars across the board but we had an issue with the key pad and couldn't get in BUT one message to Caitlyn and she helped us remotely. Caitlyn has been a fantastic host - answered questions before and during our stay, helped with getting in - EXCELLANT host!!!
The grandkids want to know when we'll be back - they had the best time! Oh and the grandkids - 7 year old triplets and a very active 5 year old...they were NEVER bored during our stay.
Thank you Caitlyn for an amazing weekend!!!!

Good time had by all!
We had an amazing stay at this house. The house itself was beautiful and very clean, with all the amenities! The host, Caitlin, was very responsive and friendly. We had a water shut off and boil order while we were there and Caitlin went above and beyond and brought us bottled water. If we ever come back to the area we will definitely seek out this property to stay again. We would also recommend it to others.

A perfect fit for families with kids
We have stayed in numerous rental homes over the years but this was easily the most pristine, beautiful, well-appointed home we have enjoyed. The kitchen was perfect for hosting Easter dinner and had everything we needed including a double oven and a like-new dishwasher and gas cooktop. The bedrooms are beautiful and the kids' room was a big hit. The pool was lovely (and cleaned while we stayed) and the arcade was a fun way to wind down after a busy day at the beach, the zoo, or visiting the historic district in downtown Pensacola. Caitlen was quick to respond when we had questions, and it is clear that much care and thoughtfulness goes into making this home welcoming and inviting for guests. We hope to stay here again!
