9:30am It’s time for a swim, so round up the kids, grab their floaties and a good book for yourself, and get to the pool STAT!

12:00pm After a big breakfast, snack throughout the day on goodies you picked up at the grocery store… just one of the many perks of staying in a vacation rental!

5:00pm After some more beach time, head back to your condo and get ready for dinner!

6:30pm Head over to The Fish House in downtown Pensacola for dinner. Overlooking Pensacola Bay, the view won’t disappoint and neither will their famous Grits a Ya Ya!

DAY FOUR8:30am Take in the morning from your balcony and sip on a cup of coffee to awake your senses. Then have a quick bite in the kitchen. Yogurt parfaits are an easy treat.

9:30am Sinking your toes into the sugar-white sand never felt so good. A relaxing morning at the beach is exactly what’s on the agenda!

1:30pm No trip to Pensacola is complete without an afternoon of shopping. With lots of boutiques and shops, Downtown Pensacola has something for everyone! Grab a souvenir.

5:30pm Return to your condo to relax and unwind or maybe take a dip in the pool. But don’t do so before stopping at the Palafox Market for fresh produce, live plants, baked goods, fine art and antiques.

7:00pm Did someone say pizza? Papa’s Pizza specializes in famous New York Style pizza as well as many other traditional Italian favorites… and they deliver!

Insider Tip: Takeout’s a perfect way to relax in your rental and chat about the day’s best moments.

8:00pm Grab some after-dinner refreshments (in plastic cups of course!) and head down to the beach with the crew for a memorable post-sunset stroll. Don’t forget your camera!

8:30pm Not ready to call it a night? Head across the street to the Historic Downtown Pensacola area. You’ll find live music and delicious libations served late.

Insider Tip: Don’t forget to check out Palafox St.

DAY FIVE8:00am Grab breakfast at The Ruby Slipper Café and then get ready for a day of adventure!

10:00am Visit the National Naval Aviation Museum, the world’s largest Naval museum and one of the most visited museums in the state of Florida. There is so much to do, you’ll want to stay all day and explore.

Insider Tip: Admission is free!

11:00am While you’re at the museum, visit the Giant Screen Theater to take in one of their immersive and educational flicks, or stop by one of the Flight Simulators for some excitement.

1:00pm Don’t stop the fun! Grab lunch right onsite at the museum at the Cubi Bar Café.

Insider Tip: The Café’s décor and layout actually duplicates the bar area of the famous Cubi Point Officers’ Club – a major source of enjoyment for the Navy and Marine Corps squadrons, ships and units.

5:00pm After a day of touring the nearly 350,000-square-foot museum, you’ve probably worked up an appetite. Luckily, you’re not far from the famous Flora-Bama Lounge and Oyster Bar. It’s a must-see when visiting the Pensacola and Perdido Key area.

DAY SIX8:30am It’s your last full day at the beach…soak up all the sunshine you can! Start with a quick breakfast, pack your cooler and snacks and head to the beach.

11:30am It’s time for lunch and you just can’t get that fresh seafood off your mind! Set out for the Casino Beach Bar & Grille at the foot of the Pensacola Beach Gulf Pier. Its beautiful panoramic views of the Gulf and friendly staff make for a fantastic meal.

Insider Tip: Order an Island cocktail made with hand-squeezed fruit juices.

2:30pm Work off some of your meal with a nice stroll on the Florida Trail at Fort Pickens.

6:00pm After a day in the sun, it’s time to think about dinner. Head back to your rental and get ready for one last delicious night out!

7:30pm A short drive to Downtown Pensacola gets you to Nick’s Boathouse. Located right on Pensacola’s Bay, their menu is sure to excite, offering a variety of fresh seafood and steaks with a Cajun flare.

9:30pm If you missed out on seeing the Pensacola Blue Wahoos play Minor League Baseball at their stadium right on the bay, make sure you check the schedule and plan your next trip around a game.

DAY SEVEN

7:30am Sadly, the day has come to leave The Gulf Coast. But don’t fret! Make the most of the day. Grab a quick breakfast and get moving!

8:45am Once you clear out the kitchen, head to the beach for some last-minute sun or bring the kids to the pool and wear them out before the drive or flight back home.

10:00am It’s time to clean up, pack up and head out of your rental. ResortQuest’s mobile app lets you simply get in the car and hit “check-out” when you’re ready. But you may want to visit the local office to secure the property for your vacation next year!

Insider Tip: Current guests have first right of refusal on their condo or home for the same week next summer.

11:45am On your way out of town, make one last trip downtown for delicious eats and souvenirs to help you remember your stay in Northwest Florida.
