Bayou Grande Casita offers a fully remodeled oasis at the end of a cul-de-sac only one block from Bayou Grande, with covered boat parking, large backyard, a detached game room with ping pong, darts, TV, kayaks, bikes, and horseshoes. Enjoy the screened porch for coffee or after-dinner drinks, and the open floor plan for meals and relaxation with a chef's kitchen, including 75" smart TV and additional smart TVs in each bedroom. Ring cameras and floodlights are provided on the exterior only. We spared no expense so you could truly feel at home away from home. Be our guest in the historic, waterfront community of Navy Point, with three miles of walking paths that weave along the waters' edge with swimming spots, sandy beaches, a public boat ramp, a playground, and where we gather together to watch the Blue Angels practice overhead. 2 minutes from the Naval Base, 10 minutes to downtown Pensacola, and less than 20 minutes from the beach. Welcome!

Great stay at Bayou Grande Casita!
My wife and I enjoyed staying at the Bayou Grande Casita while vacationing in Pensacola. The house is tastefully decorated and we both enjoyed the neighborhood and also having a boat launch less than a block away. Quick access to restaurants and a vibrant downtown. We hope to stay there again soon! Thank you Katie and Chad for being such great hosts, keep up the great work!

We loved this place!
This place was outstanding! It has so much character and charm without sacrificing comfort or convenience. It was clean and well-equipped. Although we didn't have an opportunity to take the kayaks or bikes out for a spin, we did enjoy the game room and the walking trail along the water. We really loved everything about it, and would love to stay here again if we visit Pensacola again.

Great Stay!
My husband and I were in town for a week taking care of some business. The house was in a great location for us to get to all of our meetings. It has a great set up and WiFi was very good so we could both work while there. We enjoyed being able to cook some home cooked meals as well as watch some movies at night on the giant TV. Communication with Chad & Katie was top notch! We will stay here again when in town.

We had such a lovely stay at this property! You can really tell how much effort went into this renovation. The art, furniture, and design choices were very unique and gave us ideas for our own place! Throw in the kayaks, ping pong, and bikes and you’re sure to have a great time!

Columbus day weekend trip
Great little property, the house is very nice and cozy. If we go back down we would probably stay there again. A note for the owners you might want to get a roman blinds or blinds that roll up for the screened in porch in the morning the sun is blinding, could also use some non plastic utensils as the gas stove affects there durability, the last thing is maybe a washer dryer combo so guest don't have to find some place to wash their clothes.

Such a cute place to stay!!
I booked this VRBO for a birthday beach trip. The house was awesome! They did a great job renovating the property, it's so cute and clean! The beds were so comfy!! The game room was a hit with my fiancé and brother. The location was great! Close to the Navy base, as well Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key without the traffic of staying near the tourist areas! Very peaceful place to relax after a beach day! Definitely would love to stay here again!!

Peaceful
This little house is awesome! Off the beaten path and yet it’s close enough to beaches etc., that you don’t have to travel too far. The location is so private and you don’t even have to try and relax as the house takes care of that. The game room is an added bonus as well. We loved our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Katie and Chad Anderson

Host profile image
We are so excited to welcome you to Bayou Grande Casita. My name is Katie and my husband is Chad. He and I work as a team in everything we do, and remodeling this home has been no exception and such a labor of love. We raised three children and are empty nesters now, ready to balance our time between being Realtors, more renovation projects, and anything to do with water and fishing. We worked hard to make sure our guests left Casita wishing they could stay longer, and we hope you will want to come back again and again.

Why they chose this property

We hope you will see the value in Bayou Grande Casita from the first step on the property right to the drive away when you head home. We spared no detail in quality of granite, furniture, bedding, television, internet speed, games, and amenities. You have use of bikes, kayaks, ping pong, darts, cards and games, a gas stove, luxury granite island, and fully tiled double head shower. Casita is a block from Bayou Grande and it's three mile walking/ biking path that weaves along the waters' edge, 2 minutes from the Naval Base, 10 minutes to downtown Pensacola, and less than 20 minutes from the beach.
