Great value for the money!! This hotel is a gem. The rooms are outdated, however, the location is unbeatable. It is right there at the beach and walking distance to Pensacola Beach wharf. It offers complementary breakfast, bikes, kayaks and boards. It has a pool and its own little beach. Staff is friendly and accommodating. I want to give special mention to Elizabeth. She has excellent customer services and makes sure everybody is comfortable and well taken care off.
Little own beach with beach chairs and place to take off your kayak or board.
