Downtown retreat by the Bay, Bruce Beach, Blue Angels, parades & fish market!

Welcome to Nauti-Cola, a stunning home in the heart of downtown Pensacola, perfectly situated across from Pensacola Bay and Bruce Beach. Just a 10-minute stroll away you’ll find incredible restaurants, vibrant nightlife, and Wahoo’s Stadium. From the balcony, enjoy peekaboo views of the bay, spot dolphins and birds, and even catch the Blue Angels practicing overhead. We are just 5 minutes from Pensacola Yacht Club and 15 minutes from Pensacola Beach! Pensacola does parades like nowhere else and you can watch the floats drive by and cheer them on as they “pre-party” before lining up hours before each parade! It is a blast!

The well-appointed kitchen is perfect for preparing fresh seafood from Joe Patti’s, only a 5-minute walk away, or mixing cocktails to enjoy while watching the post-game fireworks from the balcony. Relax in the sun on the balcony or unwind in the backyard, surrounded by a nautical-themed interior that’s both stylish and functional.

With three spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, Nauti-Cola is the ideal getaway for extended stays. And when you’re ready to hit the sand, Pensacola Beach is just a 15-minute drive away. This is coastal living at its finest!

Wonderful stay

Overall this place was a wonderful stay! The description of the property was accurate- it was very clean. There’s a small access to a small beach across the street but the drive to Pensacola beach was about 20 minutes. A quick walk to many restaurants and things to do!

Excellent property for a group!

Excellent overall. Having 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms was very convenient for our group of 5. The host was very quick to reply to questions. Main Street is a busy street but noise was not too bad. We sat on the porch and watched the people go by!

Clean & Convenient

Two requirements we have for VRBO stays: Must be clean and orderly; and convenient to local restaurants and activities. This unit met both with 5 STARS. This property is relatively new, very clean and organized. On the western edge of downtown Pensacola and very convenient. Great stay. Since we go to Pensacola often, we'll gladly stay again.

Family Celebration at NAS Pensacola

We traveled to Pensacola to attend son's promotion ceremony at NAS Pensacola. Chose to stay at Nauti-cola due to its proximity to the base and its excellent reviews. We weren't disappointed! Lovely... new... clean... and great communication by the owner. We definitely plan to be repeat visitors over the next 3 years while our son is stationed there!

Watched College Baseball At Wahoo Stadium

This property was within walking distance of the baseball stadium and Joe Patti’s Fish Market. We had been to Pensacola one time before and never left the beach. This was a great chance to see the adorable downtown area. Saturday morning Art and Farmer’s market was amazing! The house was immaculate, and just as pictured. The only very small negative would be the amount of traffic’s noise on the front bedroom if you are a light sleeper. But we solved that by trading rooms. Great stay!! Would go again. Loved our visit to the Air Force museum!
