The Pensacola Beach Resort

Pensacola Beach|0.62km from Pensacola Beach Gulf Pier
We stayed here in 2016 shorty after they opened and came back this year Oct 2022. Let’s start off with check in. At first it was easy enough however when we got to our room the room was already occupied so we had to go back to the front desk. They said they just gave us the wrong room but did not do anything else other than say sorry about that. We got our correct room and upon first inspection this is what I noticed. The chair in the room had a stain on it, the bathroom shower floor was dirty. And I don’t mean stained dirty I mean it looks like it wasn’t cleaned. Don’t get me wrong the room is nice but for the amount you are paying for the room I would expect a bit more attention to detail. Something else I will note is that half the outlets did not work. Also there are very few outlets and tho there are outlets on the lamps themselves the plugs do not fit into them at all. We had to rotate who charged their electronics. Room cleaning, if you want your bed made or your sheets changed make sure you have ZERO personal items on the bed or they will not touch the beds. Make sure you are not in your room or near your room when they are on your hall. If they see you walk in your room but not see you come out (even if you do come out) they will skip your room. Also, they do not replenish the shampoo and things like that unless you ask. Cleaning services are every other day so if you need anything between then you will also have to ask. On that note. We stayed for 7 nights. They cleaned our room on the second full day and didn’t clean again until our last day even though I asked on our 3rd day to have cleaning services everyday because we had kids with us. I believe the only reason our room was serviced this day is because we had a stopped up toilet and I had to call down for service on the stopped up toilet. The reason I believe this is because they did a full clean. The floors and everything. Prior to this I had to ask for more toilet paper twice and more towels a few times. We had to take our room trash down to the parking garage trash cans because of the lack of cleaning staff coming to our room to do refresh. We even made it a point to stay off our floor when the cleaning people were on our floor expecting to come back to at least replenished amenities like towels and toilet paper. Because we had to keep asking for towels and no one ever came to replace soiled towels we had an abundance of soiled towels under our bathroom counter. I just expect more attention to details than we received and it was October so not a very busy time. In fact almost the entire week was low key. Our last day there was a BMW convention in the hotel so it was slightly more busy but still pretty calm and chill. One last negative note. The phone only worked part of the time. I had to mess with the receiver several times to get it to work. I also want to note even though service was bad, the staff was very polite and the convenience from Beach to pool was nice. Also, towels

Surf & Sand Hotel

Pensacola Beach|0.63km from Pensacola Beach Gulf Pier
It’s a motel. That said, it’s super cute. The location is beyond perfect. Literally walk across the street to the gulf and just steps from your room is their private beach on the bay. You cannot beat the location or the people. Standard two Queen room, with mini fridge and microwave. Three pillows per bed. Regular shade and blackout shade on the window. Don’t like sand on the floor, bring a broom. If you leave the room, you will bring back sand. It’s a beach town. The staff is AMAZING! Front desk was very kind and helpful. Little shop in the lobby is well stocked and reasonably priced. Decor is nice, paint is fresh. Elizabet, the breakfast hostess, is engaging and makes perfect waffles during the complimentary breakfast (be kind, tip her!). They provide kayaks and paddle boards during the day at no charge. The pool has toys to use. It also has a chair lift to get in/out of the pool, if needed. Several umbrellas between the chaises. Two covered seating areas. They have beach cruisers to use. (No charge) Guest laundry $2 wash/$2 dry - desk has quarters. Nice machines. Ice machine is in laundry area. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in shower. Hand soap and lotion (nice!) by the sink. Highly recommend bringing your beach towels, they just can’t keep up with the demand for towels. I just washed our towels and swimsuits overnight. We Uber’d in, but if you’re parking, they charge $10/day. The landscaping is kept up and very pretty. I want to tell you it sucks so there is always a room available for me, but it is a tremendous value, safe, clean, with great people and amenities. It’s the place to go for serious fun and relaxation without breaking the bank. Make sure you enjoy a few of their sunsets on the bay.

Hampton Inn Pensacola Beach

Pensacola Beach|0.64km from Pensacola Beach Gulf Pier
Overview: This is from a Diamond Member who travels over 200 days a year. If you’re looking for a Hilton Property that overlooks a beautiful beach with easy access to the beach and water – then the Hampton will work for you. With only 4 Floors (Highly Recommend 4th Floor – overlooking beach – other side just looks over a parking lot), ample parking and large rooms with fast Wi-Fi, comfortable beds and window a/c’s that push out very cold air (but are also quite loud). This is a very well used property, and you will notice wear & tear if you look around – I saw maintenance personnel every day working hard to repair and replace things. Why 4-stars: Couple of things just didn’t work well – and should when one pays for a service and expects that level of service. Texted the hotel upon arrival (via the app) a couple of times and never got a response. When I checked in (an hour past the time stated by the hotel) the room was not ready, staff did make a change but tried to move me to the 2nd floor w/o asking me (remember I had picked a 4th floor room w/virtual key) so I had to get me moved back to the 4th floor…..and then had to ask if I could have my 2-waters as a diamond member. I get places are short staffed and I was OK with having to remove my own trash and ask for towels to replace used ones….but simple things should be easy to take care of. A few challenges in the room also added to the rating – however still a solid hotel for a beach stay. Next door is a Hilton property if you prefer – but it is quite large so many more guest to deal with this property never seemed busy except at breakfast. If back will look to stay here again – 4th Floor overlooking beach! Tips to Help w/Stay: 8-minute drive to where a Publix and Walmart Neighborhood grocery stores are to grab some snacks (no places on Island – except a Circle K) and the rooms have a decent size frig to hold beverages and a few snacks. 25-minute drive to Pensacola airport. Next door are two restaurants (Crabs & ???) that allow you to walk up in swimsuits and eat. Across the street (easy walk) is Alvin’s to pick up forgotten beach things or grab a souvenir. Early morning walks before the beaches fill up are recommended and either direction offer stunning water, sand, and views. The hotel offers a large breakfast selection (I don’t do these so can’t comment on quality) but it seemed to be well utilized and the offerings (hot and cold) looked OK as I walked by. Finally, there are numerous restaurants within a 2–5-minute walk and many more to choose from via a 3 – 5 drive to either show up in your bathing suit (next to hotel) or get a little more dressed up for a good dinner.

The stay was good. Older hotel but clean and it right next to downtown which was cool. Able to check out The Vynal that was recommended and had a blast. The lady that was cleaning our rooms was really kind. The folks in the office could have acted nicer
Sole Inn and Suites
4.1/599 Reviews
We had such a great stay in Pensacola and all the better for the unexpectedness of it all. We had originally intended to stop in Destin but didn’t much like the look of it so carried on down the road. Luckily I had a guide book which mentioned this brilliant refurbished 1950s motel right in the centre of the city. The bars and restaurants are all within easy walking distance so very convenient for the travel weary driver, and it meant having a drink without worrying. The rooms aren’t huge but the bed was super comfortable, it’s spotlessly clean and we arrived just in time for beer, wine and snacks in the lobby. Breakfast is pretty much a grab and go but everything was available for you, again in the lobby. Yogurts, energy bars, tea and coffee etc. It’s great value and we can’t recommend it more highly - in fact it’s one of the favourite stops along our long road trip.
Hampton Inn Pensacola-Airport (Cordova Mall Area)
3.9/5101 Reviews
Our arrival and check-in with Lou Gomez, the On Dury Manager, was exceptional. Lou offered that service with a smile and was eager to please. It was downhill from there! No more service with a smile from any more employees. We had to initiate every greeting! Breakfast was only from 6 to 9 am on the weekdays, and you get an extra half hour on Saturdays and Sundays. But don't expect any food. We asked about muffins on Sunday morning, and the employee who would have rather been elsewhere answered with a stern “NO” when we asked if they had more muffins. And, be sure to bring your own bananas because they “go bad” at this hotel. And, don’t expect coffee! It’s tasteless and makes you believe you are just drinking hot water. We stayed four nights, and the rate increased each night. We didn't receive good value for our dollars. The air conditioning unit blows over the bed making sleeping uncomfortable. We set up the ironing board in front of the unit and covered it with a blanket, and tented it with pillows to divert the air upward. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable, and we both woke up with back aches each morning. No duvets on the bed, and they only provide one lightweight blanket. You may ask for more. We Diamond members will never return to this location.
Holiday Inn Express Pensacola Downtown
4.5/5101 Reviews
This is one of the nicest IHG properties that I have stayed in. Lobby, amenities and room were all very clean and modern. The breakfast was very good and there was fresh grapefruit every morning. The very best part of the stay, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely friendly and helpful. It seemed that they were all part of an engaged team that enjoyed working together. The location of the property is great- walking distance to restaurants, a museum and good bars.
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Pensacola West-Navy Base
4/586 Reviews
Going to the local Naval Museum, so book there, the airport comes out around the uber20 knife. In the renovation, our room was a bit tasteful but acceptable. The room was very large, the bed was very comfortable, the breakfast was simple but hot and it tasted good. The old lady was very enthusiastic about packing us two cakes for us to eat on the road, the fruits are bananas and apples. satisfaction! There is a commercial center in the surrounding area to go out, but don't expect large shopping centers in small places.
