The staff at this hotel were absolutely amazing and super friendly, the room was in poor condition (ceiling paint falling, floor was filthy, left my feet black walking on them and air conditioning couldn’t keep up, door did not lock which in turn did not make me feel safe) due to your wonderful staff that would be my only reason for returning

We love the location, the amenities included in the rate, the views, but most of all-the friendliness of the staff. Everyone there always has a smile and an offer of help if you need it. This will always be our choice when staying in Pensacola Beach. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Amazing hotel

We had such a great time! Staff is friendly, informative, and accommodating. Only wish we could’ve stayed longer. We were most impressed with the variety of amenities. Having so many options at our disposal was convenient. So much to do so little time! We will definitely be coming back!

The hotel staff was the BEST! The location is amazing and our stay was great. They offer a lot of extras. The only downfall is the comfort of the beds. My 25 year old daughters back didn't mind them, but my back was screaming at me.

Great place to vacation

The hotel was very convenient to everything in the area. Could walk or bike (the hotel offers bikes to ride or golf cart rides). It was very comfortable and gave the whole beach feel to my vacation. I really enjoyed it.

Location, location, location!

An older motel with the best staff and perfect location. The a/c was cold, the showers were warm and the beds were ridiculously comfortable after a day in the sun. We took advantage of the free kayaks and paddle boards at the hotel’s little beach and then walked across the road to the Gulf at the public beach and missed all the traffic and parking issues. A great little gem!

Great hotel and reasonably priced. 4/5 only because the Gopher transportation cart wasn't reliable, and never picked us up after Day 1.
