Cottage vacation rentals in Pensacola Beach, Escambia County

Couldn’t recommend booking at Lisa’s place more. 10/10. Lisa was so friendly and hospitable. She went above and beyond for our family to ensure we were comfortable and well informed of all the resort amenities and entertainment/ dining around the surrounding area. Lisa was very prompt with n answering my questions and she was very accommodating. Everything about our stay was wonderful and we look forward to booking with Lisa again!

An absolutely outstanding location! The cottage is wonderfully secluded, providing a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. Inside, everything was impeccably clean and well-maintained. I must note, the king-size bed in the main bedroom was incredibly comfortable and you need to experience the master bathroom shower! The hot tub was perfect! Spotless and well taken care of. You can unwind in the hot tub while enjoying the sounds birds and nature. Amber exemplifies the perfect host! She was very responsive and courteous, checking in via the AirBNB chat to make sure we had everything we needed. Our entire stay was flawless! We were sad to leave and return home, but we can't wait to book again! Thanks for having us!

Great house ! My family and I felt right at home. Kids loved the pool and close walk to beach and stores . Great location!

We loved our stay for an all-woman trip to go wedding dress shopping in nearby town and decided to make it a nice weekend get-a-way! We would definitely stay again if we were in the area and we agree the area itself is worth going to for a relaxing get-a-way. The house was absolutely perfect, stunning and perfect for our retreat! Each person LOVED the decor and slept peacefully on the beds - one lady felt she was 'sleeping on a cloud'. Magnolia Springs area was safe to walk around and riding the golf cart and looking at the beautiful architecture was especially nice! 5 Star Stay!

Molly's Place was perfect! It was only half a block to the public access point for the beach, and it was also very walkable to restaurants, including Destin Commons. The house was spotless and clean when we walked in, and every amenity needed was provided. The owner is always very responsive to messages. This was the second time we stayed, and I would highly recommend Molly's Place.

We loved the access to the beach and the Naval Air Museum. Good food in the area especially the Shrimp Basket on Gulf Beach off of Hwy 292 going toward Alabama, excellent fired shrimp. This location is easy to find and really quiet and well maintained.

The house was absolutely beautiful steps away from the Emerald Coast extremely clean. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Perfect place for an extended stay. Literally everything you could need within a 3-5 min drive. Kids had a blast at pool and the adults took full advantage of the $4 beer and $6 daiquiris at the Purple Parrot bar adjacent to the pool(which also has fantastic live music in the evening). The location is so close to the beach it's easy to go multiple times a day. There are lots of restaurants and beach shops to pass the time... all just a fun drive down road that runs along the beach. It did rain one of the days of our stay and we found tons of games in the living room cabinet to play. The house is very well stocked and has super comfortable beds. Plenty of extra pillows and blankets. Plenty of extra towels. Everything is very clean and the are appliances are nice. This property really is a fantastic place to stay.

Overall this was one of the best places we’ve stayed at. So much provided you only needed food. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again.

We had a great vacation in Gulf Shores and David’s cottage was awesome! Great location, super comfortable beds, well equipped with everything you could possibly need and so close to walk to the beach. All the beach equipment and toys were such a great touch… our grandkids loved the pool too! We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the mornings and afternoons as it got great shade and breezes! David was so nice, helpful and very responsive! You can’t go wrong by staying at The United We Sand!

Great house. Comfy and clean!! host was fantastic. Would highly recommend this listing

My husband and I enjoyed our month long stay at Maravilla (March 2025). We had a condo (building 1) last year and chose the cottage this year….more privacy, less noise. We had several guests throughout the month and there was plenty of room/space for all. Beautiful kitchen for cooking our meals. Large table to accommodate our guests. Enjoyed time on the back patio as well. Easy walk to pool, pickleball courts and beach. Beach umbrellas and chairs, which are included, are great. Bernadette was quick to respond if we had any concerns or questions throughout our stay. Thank you Bernadette for renting your cottage to us. We’ll be back because we love this area of Florida.

We’re repeat visitors and our stay this time was just as lovely as the last. The Nest offers a cozy place to hang out, bed down, and base from. We love spending time kayaking the sound and watching for wildlife. Beaches, seafood, and all the Ft.Walton/Destin vacation fun is close by, but the Nest is homey and easily fit our family of four. Very grateful for laundry to wash bathing suits in between beach days!

I absolutely enjoyed my stay here! It was perfect and super equipped with everything you need for a long weekend at the beach. I loved that beach chairs and beach umbrellas were provided. The best part was the covered patio and nice sized back yard for my dog. She also loved it! The place is super cozy and makes you feel right at home. Will definitely book again if I am in the area!

Cottage was cozy, clean, and very close to all the Pensacola attractions. It was quiet at night too so we weren’t disturbed while sleeping. Jean was super responsive and helpful with any questions we had.

This property worked very well for our family. The property was comfortable, quiet, and well stocked. It was a bit further from town than I anticipated but we enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and being in nature. It was a short drive to several grocery stores and restaurants. Being able to have my small dog there with me was my favorite part. The shower was very nice and we slept well in the beds. We felt safe in the area and enjoyed spending time in the cottage.

Elise was super friendly and nice! It was very kept and clean. Very welcoming and had everything we needed. We really liked the enclosed driveway/parking area and the patio area.

Great stay! It was nice to visit Pensacola after 10 years away, and the house made it a welcome return. I enjoyed the little details like a Pack ‘n Play, coffee press, extra blankets, portable fans, just to name a few. Definitely worth it when we visit again!

This was a great AirBNB experience. The unit was very nice, had designated parking, and the host and co-hosts were very communicative. There was a little hiccup with parking at onset, but was quickly resolved - a small confusion due to some changes occurring at the property, but as soon as we messaged about it, we got a quick response and resolution. The space was petite, but more than adequate for a quick getaway, and we even had space to set up a fenced playpen for the dogs in the living area so that they didn’t have to be crated when we were away. The parking is very close to the door for easy packing and unpacking. The yard is fenced and separated from other renters, and has a little green space so the dogs had space of their own. Also, Dan was incredibly friendly, gave lots of recommendations, and even gave us some treats for our dogs. Beautiful Florida beaches are a short 15 minute (or less) drive and downtown is about a mile. Great experience.

This is our second time staying in the cottage, and we LOVED it again! My dogs and I walked in, and we felt right at home again this time. Everything was pristine, and it looks like I literally just shut down my own vacation home for a couple months and then came back. It has become my home away from home in Pensacola! In fact, I will reschedule a trip if Susan’s place is not available. That’s how much I love it! This cottage is SO well taken care of, and everything is extremely clean. Susan is incredibly helpful and friendly, and she is always responsive if needed. I’ll be staying again at least two more times this year with my dogs, and we truly can’t wait! Thank you, Susan, for another amazing experience! You really are the best!

Beautiful cabin in a great location! Caught lots of fish off the pier and enjoyed walking the shoreline in the backyard. Very peaceful place to stay to get out of the busy town areas. We will definitely come back again! Dick was a wonderful host and we got lucky finding this cabin.

This place was amazing! They had so many amenities to make trips more enjoyable. They accommodated a last minute booking and even turned the heat on so it would be nice and toasty when we arrived.

The Pastor enjoyed staying in the cottage very much. Very lovely interior and a safe feeling in this neighborhood. The cottage was very quiet, very clean and well maintained. He especially enjoyed watching the Blue Angels Airforce team practice their routine above the cottage area. One aspect he found favorable was the bathroom. Very nice cottage. We give them an overall five rating. We will remember this cottage on our next trip. Rev. Ben Vickers

We really enjoyed our stay! The Oar House restaurant was only 5 minutes away - best food and family friend atmosphere. Pensacola beach is only 20 mins away. The house was clean and had a kitchen full of appliances. I was thankful for the wash and dryer. I also loved that the room with the pull out couch can serve as a 3rd bedroom. The only negative thing about our stay was the AC was locked and we weren’t allowed to turn it lower than 71. We were uncomfortably hot sleeping at night.
