Regency Cabanas #B1

Agree with many of the reviewers' comments here. We had a blast and were impressed with several things about the property:
- Proximity to the beach (the balcony from the kitchen/dining area is actually elevated and not ground-level. Photos may not show this clearly). Even as the beach access is shared, because the main level is actually on the second story, noise from people passing by was never an issue.
- Spacious garage: could easily fit 3 cars in series. There's a garage door on the side facing the beach that can be opened as desired
- Personal elevator: makes unloading/loading a breeze
- Views facing the beach are incredible and we utilized the patio space frequently

Given COVID and the increasing number of cases in FL, we heavily researched properties that would accommodate safety. To this end, this property was a perfect match -- between the private entrance to the property (no elevators to share with other guests), location in a more residential/less-touristy part of Pensacola (less crowded beach), large kitchen (we stayed in and cooked for almost every meal) and dining areas (including the patio!), we felt a level of reassurance that allowed us to enjoy our time together with confidence.

Suggestions for improvement:
- In the evening, because there are no shades on the windows on the main floor, anyone walking on the walkway from the beach could easily see inside. Not an issue during the daytime as windows are tinted. Property owner could consider adding privacy shades/curtains for the evening.
- Bed linens could be upgraded/replaced -- we noticed a few stains on bed covers in the room with two beds
- Second bathroom upstairs could use a few towel hooks (there's only a single bar above the toilet)
- Dryer may need a tune-up as it took longer than expected to dry an average-sized load of laundry

We love the white sands and gulf view of Pensacola Beach. We were pleased with the social distancing on the beach. We cooked all our meals and avoided going out. If you use good judgement, you can safely have fun.

Location very good Good access to beach. Enjoy Elevator.

We started taking our family to the beach for vacation four years ago, and have now found the place we want to return to every year. The location of this condo right ON the beach couldn’t be more convenient, literally just steps to our beach tent. But the real game changer for us is the huge garage and elevator. We take three vehicles; two full-sized pick up trucks, and a full-sized SUV, and easily parked all three inside, then unloaded our stuff into the elevator. It was awesome!! The condo was clean, and beginning to show some wear, but all in all, we were very comfortable and content with our accommodations. Enough so, that we have already booked it again for next year. We have 7 adults, and 6 children, and never felt crowded.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Regency Cabanas B1 and hope to return again next summer. Four generations of our family (with only 2 young children) had plenty of room to spread out and have our own spaces in the bedrooms while having spacious common areas in which to gather together. We were pleasantly surprised to be able to park all of our three cars in the basement garage, and it served as a great staging area in preparing for our time at the beach each day. The gas grill was great to have whenever we wanted. We loved having an elevator in which to move our luggage and groceries (as well as our matriarch and toddler children) up from the garage. We all commented to each other how comfortable all the beds were. Some of the living room furniture is getting a little worn, but the balconies were fabulous and we spent a lot of time out there enjoying the view. We could have used a few more kitchen utensils, but we were able to make things work just fine. The afternoon before we left, we noticed water dripping from the ceiling onto the dining room table. The management company was going to look into it. We loved our vacation, and it all started with this amazing townhome.

This was our 3rd year at this location which we love! The beach is beautiful and the condo is perfect for our family ! We noticed this year however it’s starting to show its age! The main sliding glass door to the balcony was very hard to open and limited our use of it which was a shame. Looking back at the condo from the beach walkway, it could use a coat of paint and some refreshing as it’s all peeling on the door and needs a good wash! Sad to see such a great unit in disrepair! We did enjoy our stay however! Thanks to PBP and the owner for sharing it with us!

This is our 5th yr at re gency cabanas B1. You cant beat the location and the condo is huge! My family loves all the conveniences! Pools are nice, beaches never crowded, quiet area, the views, dbl garage doors, just wonderful place. We hope to go back again next year. Its starting to need some tlc. We absolutely love this place so we are willing to overlook things but I hope the owners do some,repairs before major issues arise. Thank you for sharing this little bit of paradise with us!

Manager's Response

From the minute we stepped in to the time we departed was amazing! The people at Paradise Beach Rentals are so easy to work with and were happy to help with a minor problem we had after check in. The home was clean and well stocked. The beach was steps away and not crowded. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely return!

We rented Regency Cabanas B1 over Thanksgiving holidays for our big family. We had more than enough room. The elevator was a hugh amenity for our 92 year old mom. Highly recommend Paradise Beach Homes!

We love Pensacola and visit any chance we get. This property is amazing. You literally walk out onto the beach from your back door and being able to leave all your beach gear in the garage and not track sand in the house is amazing! Having the elevator for sending stuff up and down was very helpful. The only thing I was kinda disappointed about was I thought the top level shared the balcony but you could only get to it from the master (and we didnt have the master this time). However I found that we didnt use either balcony much since the beach was just across the boardwalk. PBH was very helpful with everything. We definitely recommend this property and cant wait to visit again!

Keep up doing the great job, see you next year!!

Due to a renter backout , we were very lucky to have been offered this location.
It was more than we could have hoped for! The unit was beautiful and the location on the beach amazing! Thanks to the owner for making it available to our family.

One of the best places we have stayed in and we have been coming to Pensacola for over 30 years!

Perfect location, staff friendly and helpful, just great overall experience! Thank you!

We have used Paradise Beach Homes before and have always been satisfied.

This unit is lovely and very spacious. The view was incredible. We had a great time staying there for our son's wedding. Definitely will return!!!

The house was beautiful. Nicely appointed, with everything you needed - except beach chairs. The check-in/out process was simple and the staff was very friendly.

Our family loved staying here. The kitchen is the heart of any gathering, and this one is big enough to handle cookie-making, even while supper is in the works. The sleeping arrangements were also perfect for us, allowing elderly parents to join the group or go rest, as needed. The elevator made moving in and out a breeze. I highly recommend this condo.

I grew up in Pensacola and come back to stay a week on the beach every summer. This was one of the best homes we stayed in. The location was perfect: directly on the beach, not crowed and very peaceful. The layout of the house was ideal. The main living area was perfect for entertaining our family. The sleeping areas were ideal also because everyone got their privacy at the end of the day. If you do go out to eat Peg Leg Pete's is by far one of the best seafood restaurants on the beach. The only warning I have about this town home is the elevator. If you do use it, make sure that it is completely closed when you get out, otherwise it will not work. I would highly recommend this property to others. It was a fantastic stay.

We loved our week at Pensacola Beach and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Regency Cabanas B1. The home was beautiful and well maintained.. It is in a great location and right on the beach. I would highly recommend anyone to stay there.

The facilities, location, amenities were superb. We have stayed at many condo's, Regency Cabanas are superb.

Fourteen family members moved into a "Big Brother" type condo where dreams did actually come true. The moment we opened the garage door and saw how big the garage was, the excitement was hard to contain. (Yes that does sound strange but with 3 large vehicles and 1 small vehicle, we were very concerned about the parking arrangements. ((By the way, they did all fit in there with room to spare!))) Upon entering the main level, we all experienced an "aha" moment. This was paradise and it was ours for one week! Everything about this condo was perfect. The open kitchen-living room area was awesome and the view of the gulf was mesmerizing. The bedrooms met all our needs, especially the master suite with the peaceful view. The two bunk beds became individual living space for two of our grandsons, which they loved. The bathrooms and the laundry room were the best you could have asked for. However, the elevator was at the top of our kudo's list! What a wonderful addition to an already fantastic beach condo. Our knees are forever grateful! Overall, the condo was beyond our expectations in every way possible. We made lots of memories during our stay, in the condo, on the beach, in the waves, in the pool, around the table for meals, site-seeing, deep sea fishing, shopping, eating at the local restaurants, the list is endless. Pensacola Beach and condo B1 (as in B1 Bomber!) will forever be tied to our hearts. We recommend Paradise Beach Homes to everyone in order for your dreams to come true in Pensacola Beach. They are an awesome group of people.

Great vacation for adults and kids.

Condo was very clean, you couldn't get a better location!

Great

Great

This was hands down the most beautiful place that we have stayed while in Pensacola. Great location, amazing views and wonderful condo!

Condo was absolutely everything we could have asked for. Paradise Beach rentals did a fine job with having our unit ready for us. we had some issues with plumbing leaking in the ceiling and some broken kitchen drawers, but overall the unit was outstanding. very disappointed with construction all around us at times you felt like you were in a construction zone would have appreciated a heads up regarding this. As construction started at 7 a.m. every morning literally feet the bedroom windows. that was extremely disappointing. One of the best beach realty companies we have encountered in our 20+ yrs of renting vacation homes along the panhandle.

We enjoyed staying at Regency Cabanas #B1. There was plenty of room for 7 adults and 6 children. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need. The views from the lower deck and upper deck were beautiful! The elevator worked great for getting everything up to the right floors. The garage was great to park the cars in and there was already beach chairs, beach toys, and a gas grill to use. There is also an outdoor shower so you can rinse off before going inside. The location was great as well because it was next to the stairs to access the beach.

There were nine Bridge Buddies on this trip that had stayed in this unit in April during the week of the floods in Pensacola! We love this beautiful condo! One suggestion we have is to mount more towel bars (holders) in the bathrooms! This B-1 is spectacular!

It was the second year in a row my entire 13 person family stayed at Regency Cabanas B1 and it was as good this year as it was the first year. It was the first time we stayed in a condo that everyone asked to go back to. And they want to go back again next year. It is gated so the kids can ride their bikes on the grounds, everyone had plenty of room, the kitchen and den are very spacious and best of all it is right by the board walk to the closest we have ever been to the beach.
However the Cell Reception is spotty at best and all of us had different Cell Carriers.

This was a great spot for a large group -- 6 adults and 6 children. The large living area and extra large kitchen were perfect. The management company was extremely helpful.

Ideal vacation rental for a multigenerational family. Things to do, places to go, and sights to see. Rental is excellent! Hugh balcony to view gulf and listen to the waves. Would go here again in a heartbeat.

We went to Pensicola for business but this rental totally melted any stress away. Love love love and we will be coming back soon!
