Hope to be back in the future… Great setup on the beach…pool time or beach time…close to several local restaurants and ten minutes from downtown…
Always a nice place to stay, rooms are always clean and spacious, friendly staff. The pool was out of service which was a huge bummer but the indoor pool and hot tubs were functional and we could use our neighbor hotel pools
I checked in last minute as the hotel I booked was in an unsafe location and was actually missing the external door. I was traveling with a pet, and the staff were so nice. They understood what happened and were very sympathetic. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. It was clean, safe, I had no problems walking my dog at night.
Everything was wonderful. The front desk staff was amazing & the staff at the restaurant and bar outside were amazing. Pool and beach were great, favorite place! Will return as I do every year.
This was my wife’s and I first time in Pensacola. We got in a little late. I don’t ever think I’ve seen such happy people just doing their job. Even the waitress at the restaurant was so nice. The hotel was very clean and the lazy river was awesome. I would definitely recommend this hotel especially if you have kids. Just very easy access to the pool and the beach.
Everything about this place exceeded our expectations. Impossible to run out of things to do. The best staff. Awesome rooms, drinks, food and activities. Highly recommend!
Room was amazing with amazing views! Loved being close to the beach. The lazy river and the 2 hot tubs were ideal after a day at the beach and we wrapped up the night either swinging in a hammock or sitting by the fire pit. Best vaca in a long time

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The smell of marijuana on ninth floor was extremely annoying - uncomfortable to sit on the balcony at night and smell it .
Families filling the pool and lazy river with their own floats / tubes / boogie boards/ kid toys was in the way of patrons trying to relax
