Wonderful stay
Location perfect! The park nearby was beautiful and such a great place to walk our dog. Everything that we needed was provided in the house. The cleanest place we’ve ever stayed in! And our dog loved running around in the fenced in backyard. Would love to stay here again.

Nice property
We really enjoyed our stay here. It’s cute and cozy. Plenty of kitchen utensils to make meals. Friendly neighborhood. Close enough to the beach. If any feedback I’d say better quality bath towels and the entry door takes a few seconds to unlock and lock. We would definitely stay here again.

Will stay again!
This property was exactly as represented! This home is close to everything downtown Pensacola has to offer and you can walk or bike everywhere. The home was exceptionally clean upon our arrival, it has 2 parking spaces, was well stocked with all the basic essentials, has a lovely fenced backyard and upper and lower porches to enjoy, and the host is very responsive. We will most definitely stay here again!

Everything we needed and more!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Pensacola. The house was in pristine condition and supplied well with cooking utensils, toiletries and snacks. We enjoyed the back covered patio and the convenient location to all the amenities we wanted to enjoy. Very walkable to downtown.
Kathy was really great and she communicated well. Her home is even better in person. We loved it! We will definitely come stay again.

Great property - location
This property over delivers in all aspects. You can walk downtown, Blue Wahoo’s stadium or stroll the neighborhood. All bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen were very clean at check in. Nice snack basket was included in the kitchen. We travel with our small dog and the house was perfect. Kathy was very accommodating and easy to work with. I fully recommend this property and will be staying here again on our next visit to Pensacola.

Very clean nice conveniently located home. Just wish check in was earlier such as 3pm and check out was a bit later like 11am. Hotels across America have check in at 3pm and check out at 12pm. However, we liked the home very much.
