Our stay was very enjoyable. The condo was very nice and clean. The views from the wrap around balcony was beautiful. If we ever make it back to Pensacola Beach, I would stay here again.

My wife and I just spent 3 nights and 2 days at this wonderful condo. It is dead on with EVERYTHING you need. No need to bring anything but your clothes and food. The condo is well equiped with a panaramic view; staff is friendly and entry onto the property and into the condo is without issue and oh, did I forget to mention the weather in FL, spectacular ! You have the gulf as well as the sound side and the local food is great as well. WE WILL BE BACK & thank you !

The place was spot on. Very comfortable place. Pictures were accurate. Huge wrap around balcony with views in every direction. Although not directly on beach, it was extremely close and I felt a better variety of vantage points. Fully stocked with all that you would need. Nice big flat screen. Owner is very responsive to email and it is so easy once he gives you the codes to enter. No need for check-in or key exchange. Very easy and convenient. Would stay here again for sure.

We highly recommend this beautiful condo. Had a wonderful week with gorgeous weather. The views are most beautiful at sunset, and if you are lucky you see dolphins in the bay area. Thank you for sharing such a treasure!

We can not say enough nice things about our stay at this property. The property was even nicer than the photos. It was very clean and well maintained and the views from the balcony are wonderful. The owners are both very nice and easy to work with. They stocked the frig with soft drinks, bottled water and even a nice bottle of white wine. The activities were more than enough to keep you occupied and there are several nice restaurants with great food to choose from. I would and already have recommend this property to friends and family. Thanks for the GREAT VACATION!!!!

This condo was absolutely amazing and the view from the wrap around balcony is breath-taking!! The condo was very inviting and cozy. Everything that would need in a condo is there and we had no problems. I believe this is by far the best condo on Pensacola Beach - by far!! We did not want to leave!! In fact, we are already making plans to visit again this year and next year. Highly Recommended!!!!

The condo was in a good location.The only thing better would have been on the beach,however we really didn't have time and the water was too cold. We loved the large size of the condo and double balcony.It easily slept 6 people.It was very well maintained.We have never had welcome drinks available which was a nice surprise.Also having dishwasher liquid and washing powder was also a plus. I would stay here again without a doubt. The pool was large but again too cold to swim.Would be great in the summer.We also made use of the grills near the water and the electric grill on the balcony. Would recommend this condo.

Recently stayed in this condo in Tristan Towers. We have stayed in condos for years all along the Gulf Coast and this is probably one of the best. It is everything that is advertised, plus some. Very clean and well maintained. Close to anything you would want. Pool area and views are excellent. Owners are 1st class and easy to work with. We would recommend this condo to anyone! Thanks for a great stay!

The property was everything that we expected. It was clean, comfortable, and overall quite nice. The pictures for this property were accurate. The views were beautiful with the wrap around balcony overlooking the Bay and Gulf that could be taken in at the same time. was a real bonus. The rooms were spacious, light and airy, and very comfortable. The ammenities were inexpected ie. the refrigerator had condimentsand wine that were appreciated. The kitchen was well stocked with utencils for every need. The computer and sound system was a nice addition. Our experience was very very wonderful. Will look forward to staying here in the future and would highly recommend it to anyone. Thank you for your generosity and sharing this dream place.

Third Vacation at Tristan Towers, #21617

Over the past several years, we have thoroughly enjoyed this roomy, well equipped, updated Tristan Towers unit. It is clean, comfortable, gated community and a most comfortable, relaxing place for your getaways. On the side balcony, you have a great ocean view (nice for watching the dolphins feed and play, as well as enjoying the various kinds of watercraft and planes. On the sound side balcony, you can watch the fishermen, sailboats, barges, jet skis, etc. (You may just get to see the Blue Angels practicing as well.) The owners of this unit provide you with their contact numbers in the event you have a problem or need. Now, we must add, "We have never had a problem or need." Give this unit a try...you will want to return, just as we have!

This 2 bedroom condo at Tristan Towers was absolutely fabulous! It had everything you could ever want and more. The photos don't do it justice. We were there for a little more than a week and never was without something to do. We thought we would want to swim at the beach most of the time but truthfully we enjoyed swimming in Santa Rosa Sound becuase we could lay out in the calm water all day if that's what we wanted to do. And the swimming pool was beautiful too. We will be going back to this exact condo next year. There's no way any other condo could have a view any better than this one. We had the Gulf on one side of the balcony and the Sound on the other side. We walked to Peg Leg Pete's a couple of times but enjoyed cooking on the balcony more than going out to eat all the time. If you rent this condo you will not be disappointed! The Hightowers were fantastic to work with and were very accomodating. Thanks for a great time.

We spent 3.5 days at this wonderful condo and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The view was beautiful, the weather gorgeous and the accommodations were stupendous. Highly recommend this particular unit to anyone traveling to the Gulf area. The owners were great to work with, allowing for a trouble free rental. Highly recommend visits to Fort Pickens as well as the lighthouse in Pensacola.

My fiance and I had a great time on our trip and this Tristan Towers condo was very clean and comfortable. I am really glad we found it and hope to be able to stay here again later this year! It was VERY quiet and the premises are really secure with plenty of parking. The double balcony view is very nice as well! Thank you for taking such good care of us!

My parents and I wanted to get away for the Fourth of July weekend. In a last minute attempt, we were able to book this great condo. We really had no expectations, since it was last minute. However, we were delightfully surprised with the condo and our entire stay. Had we not had prior appointments, we would have liked to extend our stay another day. The condo's view has to be one of the best in the area. Beds were very comfy as was the condo's couches...great TV's. Unfortunately, there were some oil spots on the beautiful beach and strong winds that kept us away from the beautiful gulf waters, but that did not keep us away from Tristan Tower's awesome pool and taking advantage of the private beach access to the Santa Rosa Sound. We definitley would love to come back.

Our group of 4 visited Pensacola Beach for Memorial Day Weekend 2010 and had a wonderful time and staying at Mr. and Mrs. Hightower's condo made our weekend even more enjoyable and relaxing. The condo was very clean, the beds were so comfy, and the views from the condo are amazing!!! The place is also very quiet. We did not hear one sound the tiime were were there. In addition Mr. and Mrs. Hightower were always very courteous and responded to our e-mails promptly. I would highly recommend this place. I will certainly visit again. Thanks again Mr. and Mrs. Hightower for a wonderful stay.

We totally enjoyed our week's stay. The balcony affords a view of both the bay and the gulf - it is very comfortable and breezy sitting on the balcony. Even though the outside temperature was in the 90's the balcony and was very comfortable. The condo was very roomy and clean. The linens and towels were luxurious and I felt like I was staying in an upscale hotel. Everything we needed was there - the owner even provided quite a few extra amenities that often we do not find when renting. There was a large flat screen TV in the living area and a smaller flat screen TV in the master bedroom. We would definitely recommend to our relatives and friends and will likely want to come back again next year. We only frequented a couple of restaurants in the area but my favorite was Hemingway's. There is a very large pool and since I'm a swimmer, I was able to use the pool for lap swimming. The bike paths and trails are wonderful - I brought my bike and did a lot of biking as well as running and walking. We really only spent most of our time relaxing and we were able to do that, although I think we picked the best week since traffic was low. Overall a nice complex with a lot to offer, great locations and the owner was very easy to work with and highly communicative.
