Allow the cozy atmosphere to embrace you with your favorite playlist ringing aloud through our blue tooth speaker. Engage in a clever moment with either the mystery surrounding the neighborhoods' historic exploration, or through a quick game of solitaire or backgammon.

Treat yourself to some pampering in the brand new black and white powder and bath by indulging in a warm tub or hot shower with our hand selected toiletries. There is a very good reason that in 1559 the Spanish chose this neighborhood for what we now know as Americas first settlement.

Neighborhood:
Nestled in the historic Luna Colony neighborhood first settled in 1559 lies our Twin Oaks cottage. Situated at the confluence of Bayou Texar and Pensacola Bay, breezes abound in this auspicious location. Explore the tree lined streets with mature plant species in the neighbors gardens and take a short walk to embrace the views of Historic Pensacola Bay and the unforgettable undulations of Bayou Texar.
Exploring Pensacola Beach while you're here? Just a short drive of under 15 minutes during the off-season. Make the most of our complimentary beach bag, complete with a beach blanket, towels, and valuable beach safety pointers for your enjoyment.
Locale Perks:
The walkable neighborhood includes locally owned breakfast, lunch and dinner restaurants ranging in style from diners to fine dining; a precious hometown grocery store offers everything you may need including a gift shop replete with the wares of local artists. Across from the grocery is a CVS Pharmacy, around the corner is a laundry, a nail salon, locally owned boutiques, a beer and wine bodega, pizza and more. Enjoy our locally owned, waterfront bar and restaurant atop the bluffs or our old school neighborhood dive bar. And most convenient of all is the Bayou Texar boat launch only a few steps–but out of ear shot–from the cottage.
Bring your boat, we have free boat trailer parking! Go fishing in Pensacola! Or just walk down to see how serious Pensacola is about getting out on the water on a beautiful warm and sunny day.
