Our 8 day stay was just what the doctor ordered. House was comfortable, well equipped kitchen generally (needs some skillets replaced), very easy access to beach, good location for dining options. Primary bedroom was very comfortable. Garage doors do not work and openers have been rusted for some time, but wasn’t a game changer for us. Sunset views were amazing.

Reviewer Comments:
Our 4th consecutive year at Life’s A Beach! It works for us, as we come to Pensacola Beach every 3rd week of June for a family reunion of 4 families all staying at the White Sands Townhouses. Best part is the closeness to the beach without the crowds of a high-rise condo. Our stay would have been perfect except for the 4 days of no TV service due to missing satellite dish and sketchy internet buffering off and on. It was spotlessly clean. Kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to cook meals. Outdoor propane grill a definite plus! The house is very comfortable for families and has nice views of both the gulf and beautiful sunsets on the bay.

Thank you for choosing Life’s A Beach for the fourth year in a row! We’re happy it continues to be a comfortable and well-equipped home for your family reunions. We appreciate your understanding about the TV service and internet issues during your stay. We are working on improvements to prevent those problems in the future. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the beach access, views, and the outdoor grill. We look forward to welcoming you back next June.

Wonderful location with super easy (and close) access to the beach.
We’ve rented a few properties in Perdido Key and Pensacola, and this is our favorite! The addition of a small side yard made it so easy with pets. We loved the three floors worth of balconies with a view of the dunes and the Gulf. It was comfortable, relaxing and exactly what we wanted for vacation. Plus the management company were easy to work with and even gave us a lovely and unexpected swag bag. What a fun surprise!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property! We appreciated being able to bring our dog and the dog beach is only a mile away. This house has a hose set up outside so you can wash off your beach toys and shoes before coming inside. This is probably the cleanest house that we have ever rented. We enjoyed eating outside on the porch and we saw the Blue Angels fly by on their return to Pensacola on Sunday. The ease of getting to the beach on the boardwalk is unmatched! Highly recommend this property!

Thank you for your 5 star review! We're happy to hear that you had a great time and we will definitely look into replacing the master bedroom blinds. Thank you for the feedback. We hope to see you again in the near future!
We chose this location so we could enjoy the beach while having convenient access to fishing and it did not disappoint! The staff were friendly and helpful and responded quickly to our questions and requests. The house itself was a great set up for our family. I had thought the downstairs bed would be bigger but it is pretty small so we put our son there. The king bed upstairs is really comfortable. There are many views making the firework experience a 10/10. From the master bed you can see the historic white cross and you can even see the ocean when washing dishes. Everything seemed well thought out. If you have a dog, the dog beach is one mile away. Perfect distance!! To improve the stay we could have used a better vacuum and a mop. The floors are hard to clean and we have a large family. It wasn’t really that clean when we arrived so having these on hand would have helped a lot.

We have a group family vacation planned every year in Pensacola Beach and we have reserved this house for the past 3 years and are reserving again for next year. The house is well equipped and comfortable. You can’t beat the views of both the gulf and the sound. My only complaint is that the realty company that leases this property has increased the cost for one week in June over $500 each of the past years. This is excessive.

This was our favorite rental by far...this location is at end of the building and has an incredible view of the beach. We loved the wrap around decks, especially the widows walk for sunsets and sunrise yoga. We also enjoyed being able to bring along our little bulldog. All appliances were working and the entire house was very clean. The only suggestion is to upgrade the Wi-Fi as connections were unreliable at best. WE WILL BE BACK!

We really enjoyed our stay at 501 Life's a Beach. The house has great views and perfect access to the beach. We loved being able to bring our dog along. The house is very family-style, lots of photos, artwork and cute sayings on every inch of the walls, very fun! Was happy to have a couple boogie boards for the kids to use. Only recommendation would be the upstairs master bedroom to have the white blinds like the rest of the house. The bamboo shades were transparent-so bring a sleeping mask:) Thanks for opening your home to renters!

Thank you for the perfect review and for recommending White Sands Cottage 501 to other vacationers! It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback (and, of course, we'll share your shades suggestion with the owner). Please give us a call when you are ready to plan your next visit to Pensacola Beach.
Only the second trip to Pensacola Beach, this house was well-equipped, clean, bright and fresh. Easy access to all porches and much-appreciated kitchen equipment-stainless steel pots and cast iron pan. Problems with internet connection and wi-fi, but we should have contacted the management company. Beach chairs and toys are in the garage, along with one usable bike ... we rented bikes beforehand from The Fun Store. Enjoyed this end of the island for easy running and biking on paths, as well as easier access to the bay, the parks, and Fort Pickens ... quieter and nicer. No real yard or easy area for the dog, but made do. Grocery shopping off the island is a necessity. Used Publix and Walmart Market on Gulfbreeze. Prefer direct beach access/view, but the house otherwise was perfect.

The location of this property is hard to beat. Great beach access, amazing view from the decks, 1 mile walk to the shops and restaurants and even closer to Peg Leg's. The house was fine but a bit dated. The interior was in better shape than the exterior. Most of the outdoor lights were burnt out, garage door openers don't work, gate is rusted and a lot of exterior touchup is needed (rusting garage doors, rusted gates, etc). Non of this prevented us from having a good time but for the price, I was expecting better conditions of the property.We did have one issue that I raised with the property management and they addressed it immediately. Very responsive and very easy to work with.
