This is the cleanest property we have ever stayed at. The neighborhood is extremely quiet. The pool is a huge plus. It would be nice to pay an option to heat it about 10 degrees more.

Prior to our trip we contacted our host with numerous questions and he was always pleasant on the phone, answered our questions and even sent us pictures of the high chair and pack n play. The house definitely met all our needs; it is very clean, spacious, comfortable and well stocked with bath towels, toiletries and the kitchen had lots of dishes, utensils, etc. The pool was everybodies favorite place and we spent mornings, afternoons and evenings playing in the water. It was a very hot week while we there so the pool and ocean were our go to places. If we are ever in the Pensacola area we would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a very fun vacation and being our home away from home! ##### Dennis D.

The pool was perfect and being able to link my computer to the tv on the lanai made it possible for me to watch my work conference while being with my daughter as she swam. My 16yo son loved having his own room with smart tv where he could escape from his parents. 😁 Wayne responded promptly to communication and offered suggestions for nearby beaches. This is an FYI only…bring your own baggies, aluminum foil, etc. The kitchen was nicely stocked with seasonings and we managed just fine with the pans that are provided. 💯 recommend and hope to stay again in the future! ##### Melanie H.

Pool had some dead algae that had been treated a couple days before bc of surrounding trees. Called host. He had someone there taking care of it early next morning. Would definitely stay at the property again. ##### Cindy R.

Exactly as described, excellent communication as needed with owner, pool is amazing! It was nice to be so close to the zoo, Naval museum and beach….and not have to deal with being around a ton of people in a hotel or share our pool. Highly recommend! ##### Kristen B.

The natural lighting and layout were comforting. It was clean, felt secure, and the neighborhood was quiet and friendly. The host was very accessible and helpful, extremely quick to respond, and greatly accommodating. The location is very central to Pensacola to the north and the beaches and entertainment to the south. Only a 35-minute drive to the military bases and airport, and well off the beaten path. My family and I would definitely stay again and we look forward to our next visit. ##### Jason M.

This home is nestled in a beautiful neighborhood close to many stores and restaurants. And most importantly a quick drive to the beaches. This home was equipped with everything from kitchenware, towels, games, puzzles to laundry detergent and shampoo/conditioner. Plenty of beds and multiple areas for dining. My family and I enjoyed the swimming pool, and loved the additional tv on the patio. This home was perfect in every way possible. We would love to stay here again in the future. ##### Jeffery W.
