The space
One of Pensacola’s architecturally significant Victorian homes. The house construction initiated in 1902 by Steamboat Captain James M. Flynn and was completed around 1904 when the Thomas W. Brent, Jr. family moved in. Over the years it has also served as a hotel, bed-and-breakfast, advertising agency, and more. Previously featured in Southern Living Magazine. While this home has served many roles throughout its history, most of the charming historic details remain intact today. This includes the ornate wooden staircase in the foyer, 7 original fireplaces each with a unique hand carved wooden mantel. A favorite detail are the stunning stained glass windows throughout the house!

Reviews

Duffie C. Jun 24, 2025 02:20:15 AM
Summary: We were in town for our son’s wedding. This house was perfect for our family and extended family. It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and very clean. The accommodations in the house were excellent. The host is very attentive to details in the house. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and recommended 100%. The home was absolutely beautiful.
Violet D. Jun 16, 2025 07:32:39 AM
Summary: We had a wonderful family vacation at the Victorian Mansion in Downtown Pensacola. The house was lovely and comfortable. There were plenty of beds/bedrooms, and there was plenty of room to gather, either inside or out on the veranda. There were also plenty of places where you could be by yourself to read or relax. The location was perfect! We were less than 10 min from the beach, but we were also close to historic downtown Pensacola, with all the quaint shops & eateries, so there was something for everyone! This was definitely a "Family Favorite"!
Dean D. May 16, 2025 08:51:17 PM
Summary: This house is a gem. If you want a period house furnished in wonderful antiques that fit the house, this is the place! We slept 11 people in the house and never felt crowed. To the contrary, it is spacious, warm and inviting!
Jennifer R. Apr 9, 2025 12:48:53 AM
Summary: The location of this property is perfect. 15 minutes from the airport, and a 5 minute walk to downtown. We were close by everything and did not have to pay to park.
Laura B. Apr 8, 2025 09:06:13 PM
Summary: Property was exactly as advertised. We had a great time!
Haley T. Mar 13, 2025 12:35:57 AM
Summary: Due to an impending hurricane we were placed under a mandatory evacuation, we luckily were able to stay at this gorgeous home that was large enough for our entire family. Despite the reasoning for our last minute trip and stay the owners were excellent and very accommodating. I would highly recommend this home.
Matt M. Mar 12, 2025 09:40:34 PM
Summary: Our group loved the unique atmosphere and distinct decor. Really great!
Meredith H. Mar 12, 2025 07:19:10 PM
Summary: I stayed in the house with my sisters and extended family for my niece’s wedding. The kids took over the media room and enjoyed their space having fun. The adults were found with morning coffee on the porch and wine in the evening in the parlor. The house was exceptionally clean and provided many comforts. It’s a beautiful home with a quick walk to downtown. I highly recommend it to a large group visiting Pensacola!
Events C. Feb 19, 2025 01:03:26 AM
Summary: Fantastic venue for our corporate event. Everyone truly loved the venue and we will be back. Our host was the best!
Gig C. Jan 30, 2025 03:56:38 AM
Summary: The rooms had their own individual charm. Rooms were huge. We came when Pensacola had a freak snow storm, the host were responsive in allowing us to purchase extra heaters. The old house had a couple of old house issues, but really loved the place
