We really enjoyed our stay at Pensacola Beach Resort and would definitely return. The location is convenient to food and shopping, but also far enough from the pier and public beach that it never felt crowded. The beach chair and umbrella rentals were a bit pricy, but this is run by a third party and not the hotel (same pricing regardless of where you stay).

We arrived around 9PM and were happily greeted and checked in quickly. The room was a double queen with a balcony overlooking the gulf. We were only able to stay for one night but the beds were comfy, the coffee in the restaurant was delicious and free if you go early on the morning, the beach was clean and the view was to die for. I would come back again for sure! The only downside was almost $50 in fees and taxes but that's to be expected.

The ocean view from my room was excellent. This hotel is very clean. The bed and linens were very comfortable. The pool was refreshing and we used the Tiki Bar every day for food and drink. We also used the Windrose restaurant for breakfast and dinner on multiple occasions. The food and service were stellar. We also had a very nice dinner at the Salty Rose. This hotel is located at a less crowded location which made for a nicer beach experience. Overall we would stay here again without a doubt! Loved every minute.
