About the host
Hosted by Gloria
Welcome! My husband and I are new to hosting and decided to buy this landmark home (The Hawkins House, circa 1880) to share a bit of our rich local history, and all that beautiful coastal Pensacola has to offer you and your family.
Why they chose this property
This home was recently up for sale, and we fell in love with it from the moment we walked in the Red Door! We have lovingly decorated the house with warm contemporary furnishing that is fresh, welcoming, and beautiful.
What makes this property unique
We look forward to hosting guests who wish to enjoy our vibrant historic downtown, and special life occasions such as weddings, honeymoons & family reunions. We are a short 15-20 minute drive to our stunning sugar-white beaches along the emerald Gulf Coast.
