The 99-room Travelodge Pensacola Beach is a no-frills, budget hotel on a private stretch of sand in Little Sabine Bay, across the street from a beautiful public beach. The property has an outdoor pool, a small bar, and a barbecue deck on the beach. Guest rooms have mini-fridges, microwaves, and coffeemakers, though are not always clean. Breakfast and Wi-Fi are free. Both the on-site and next-door bars tend to get rowdy, especially during spring break, making this property better-suited to partiers than families. For a quieter, more family-friendly atmosphere, guests could try Hampton Inn Pensacola Beach, which has somewhat higher rates.

The first hotel to open under the Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville brand, the Margaritaville Beach Hotel offers a relaxed, tropical atmosphere right on a beautiful stretch of sandy coastline. The hotel's white and blue color palette, wicker furnishings, and palm trees add to the beachy atmosphere, as do the seasonal live entertainment, and a poolside Tiki bar. Rooms are sophisticated, clean, and airy with huge balconies, flat-screen TVs, and free Internet. The sweeping views of the white sand beach and Gulf of Mexico, viewable throughout the property and from the sleek outdoor pool, are a highlight. This hotel is definitely unique for an area full of chain options, but some guests complain about jellyfish on the beach.
