Shot Gun Style Home - Pensacola Beach has a good selection of businesses that rent jet skis on Santa Rosa Sound. These waters align the beautiful sandy beaches of Pensacola Beach, Gulf Breeze and touch many areas of the Gulf Islands National Seashore.
The Jesse - This house is a quirky mix of old character and new updates which makes it an attractive place to stay.  The neighborhood is beautiful and great for walking or biking.  Nice restaurant nearby. -ALAN
The house is adorable, very charming -Lindsay

Cottage Downtown Pensacola - I loved every minute of my stay at The Jesse! I was in town for a work trip but the downtown walkability and the great decor in the cottage made it feel like a mini vacation. -Marie

About this property

The Jesse: Cottage in Historic Downtown Pensacola

Charm filled 1903 cottage in the heart of the historic district of downtown Pensacola , one block from Seville Square and a short walk to one of America's greatest main streets "Palafox Street". This one bedroom cottage has been completely renovated with modern comfort and style. Walk to great restaurants, local bars, art galleries, the minor league baseball park, and shopping or simply relax on the front porch and greet the locals.

The cottage has a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. **NO Washer/Dryer** A small front porch for relaxing and a small fenced courtyard in back for relaxing outdoors.
The cottage is professionally cleaned after each guest and all linens/towels are laundered and sanitized by East Hill Laundry.

The “Jesse” cottage has a brother cottage next door, the “Blake” which is also available for booking. Many guests have rented both cottages for wedding guests, bride/groom preparation, and shared vacations.

The Jesse
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were disappointed in the condition of the house: no curtains in living room and kitchen. Both sets of locks on front door and back door were very loose and hard to get into. The art work was missing in the living room. Bathroom selves were almost falling off, and toilet paper holder is hanging by one screw. The kitchen oven door was dirty. The floor needed a good mopping. We were never able to park in front of the house, like it said in the ad. The photos in the ad were very misleading. It doesn’t look like anyone is making an effort to keep this property up. And the worst thing is, we were visited by several Palmetto bugs.We believe the pictures of the property do not match reality. It’s our opinion that alittle TLC could massage The Jesse into the charming little home that it can be.Allison and Jeffrey Thompson

Location & Price Worth It
Lots of pros & cons about "The Jesse" but overall the pros outweighed the cons. Pro 1: Location close walking to main downtown & driving to beach. Pro 2: Price for location. Pro 3: 2x Strong Window AC Units. Pro 4: Great on-call customer support. Con 1: Very old property. Pealing paint, squeaking floor, grungy feel, some things falling apart/down, etc Con 2: Extremely sandy floor when arrived. Con 3: Communication all occurred outside of VRBO app (Phone calls, emails). Con 4: Did not receive check in details till 12:30am after having to call 24/7 support number. Generally great for someone who wants to be downtown but does not care about luxury.

Short but sweet stay
Great location to walk downtown, local breweries, restaurants, coffee shops etc. The home was clean and comfortable for our 2 night stay. The beach amenities provided were a great extra touch!

Pensacola Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Although I understand the Cottage (Jesse) we stayed in was 120 years old, it certainly left a lot to be desired. Window frames extremely peeled and weak. Walls needed to be stripped and new sheetrock put up. The cottage was cleaner when we left than when we arrived. It was, however, a convenient location. The Downtown area is a very old area, but the places that were kept up were very nice. Unless you are a beach fanatic, there isn't much to do except go to a bar or restaurant. We would recommend the Hub Staceys or McGuires Irish Restaurant for drinks and food. Will we be .
