This was an absolutely gorgeous resort. My daughter and I enjoyed our quick one night stay on the way to Gulf Shores. Customer service was incredible. My daughter left a small but valuable purse and they immediately responded as housekeeping found it, and they arranged to ship it back to us. We are so grateful!!

Amazing Place!

This was our first stay at The Pensacola Beach Resort and we will definitely be back. The property was clean, the food was great, and the staff were all amazing. The resort wasn't too crowded and there was plenty of parking in the garage as well as the outside lot. We were able to walk to the pier, restaurants, and the boardwalk area which was nice nice when it was busy on the weekend.

Great resort with beautiful beaches

This property was the Old Margaritaville... But the new property was fantastic. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We went in the off season, so there was plenty of parking and the beach was beautiful. Rooms and hallways were clean. The food there was above average. Highly recommend eating there. The Dirty Martini pasta was delicious. The heated pool was beautiful.
