The Blake was an amazing place to stay! It was very easy to navigate to the house, parking was very smooth and easy with lots of options. I really appreciated that there was a binder inside explaining details, not only about the house, but about Pensacola! Checking in and checking out was a breeze and very fast and very easy which I also appreciate. If you’re looking for a house to stay in for your next vacation to Pensacola, I’d really recommend the Blake!

Very old home
You gotta live with slightly uneven floors and very small bathroom/sink area
But nice home w little back patio/back yard area
It worked well for us

We parked the car on Wednesday and didn't need it again until we left on Sunday. We walked everywhere, the Historic Village, Palifox Street, the waterfront, etc. The house is cute, but if you don't like the roar of 3 window air conditioners, then you may want to reconsider. Also, there is only a small refrigerator, no freezer for ice or cold blocks and don't invite anyone over to share a meal, there are only 3 kitchen chairs and utensils are limited. Bring all you supplies for cooking. There was tp and paper towels and garbage bags. We'd return, but at a time when you don't need to cool or heat the home. PS the cleaning lady is a sweetheart!

Charming cottage in downtown Pensacola. A quick 15 minute drive to the beach where I dug my toes into the sand and enjoyed the sun’s rays on my face. Loved being close enough to walk to downtown Pensacola and enjoy all that it offers. A beautiful time of refreshing my soul and bringing joy to my heart.
