“I'd say this bayside spot has family vacation nailed, especially with those free paddleboards and bikes; location is prime, too, putting guests exactly where they need to be on Pensacola Beach. A bit of elbow grease might be needed with the in-room cleaning, though, and asking for a different room could be the fix if a TV isn't working. All in all, it seems like a solid home base with more than a few perks.”
