Tristan Towers by Surfside VR

My mother and I take a trip together every year, and this year we decided to head to the beach. Our stay at the Tristan Towers was nothing shy of awesome; so awesome in fact that it will likely become THE annual trip. The hostess was fantastic (we stayed in 10-C via Airbnb); very responsive with the few requests we had and there were so many additional, quite special details and thoughtful treats in the condo that we did not expect, which did not go unnoticed or unappreciated by us. :) During our week stay we visited many surrounding areas including Gulf Breeze, Pensacola, Pensacola NAS, Gulf Shores, Fort Walton, Destin, Perdido Key, Big Lagoon State Park, and Gulf Islands; noting other potential places to stay in the future. We both agreed that our little condo on Pensacola Beach could not be beat. The beaches across the street, down the road to Fort Pickens (awesome, gotta check out the Fort!) and back over to Navarre Beach are all pristine and way less crowded than anywhere else we went; they are very well taken care of (we found some amazing seashells too!). We especially enjoyed waking up and winding down to the incredible view from the 10th floor patio (quite amazed at how well you can hear the ocean waves from up there) and opted to cook breakfast and dinner (fresh seafood from Joe Patti!) each day there rather than going out. Fantastic place, we will be back.
