About this property

Bayfront Lodge-Beautiful & Unique East Bay Retreat

  • Beautiful setting directly on East Bay with its own private boat ramp. Bring your boat! This six bedroom, five bath home is located only 15 minutes from the pristine Navarre Beach or 20 min from Pensacola Beach. Everything you need is close, but you are still nestled in a residential neighborhood.



    Private and serene, this beautiful bay-front home boasts the tranquility of a lake house, the recreational potential of a beachfront cottage, endless possibilities for summer entertaining or an engaging winter get-away. The boat ramp offers access to all that East Bay and Pensacola Bay have to offer, including access to the Gulf of Mexico. With multiple layers of lookout decks, covered porches and a dock, this home has amazing sunset views to offer all year long.



    Enjoy watching dolphins swim around the dock while sitting on the expansive patio. There is a fire pit as well as gas, charcoal & electric grills for guests to enjoy.



    This unique home has a beautiful open floor plan with gorgeous natural light and timeless cedar and cypress beams. It is well-equipped with a well-stocked kitchen, dining and family living rooms, and much outdoor seating, all overlooking the water. Featuring two kitchens, two laundry units, and ample space to sleep 24 people on mattresses (w/ 2 additional fold-up twins and a queen), this home is the ideal location for family reunions, conferences, and retreats.



    Ideally flanked by two of the world's most beautiful beaches, Bayfront Lodge not only has it ALL – there’s space to bring EVERYONE! Enjoy captivating views throughout the house! Step on the covered deck & enjoy a warm cup of coffee. Feeling more adventurous? Organize a game of volleyball or take a yak for a spin. As the day winds to an end, wander down the dock to fish, gather around the fire pit, or star gaze over East Bay. Unbelievable sunsets, unparalleled serenity and forever memories await!



    This house can be booked alongside Bayfront Cabin to sleep 33-38 people.

    Bayfront also offers the use of both properties as event venues. For additional information about the types of packages we offer, please contact us. We would love to work with you to help create your ideal vacation or event.

Family Gathering

Once again the Bay Lodge was a perfect place to gather the family. The adult kids enjoyed the water equipment and everything was close by. Our grandson enjoyed his first visit. I would highly encourage families to stay at the Bay Lodge. Thank you Carol and team Bay Lodge!

Family Reunion

Bayfront Lodge was everything we could have hoped for. We had plenty of space and amenities. Our family are pretty serious cooks and enjoyed a well stocked kitchen including quality pots and pans and a wide assortment of tools and appliances. The 3 refrigerators accommodated everything we brought. Paddle boards and kayaks were so much fun! The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. We would definitely return!

Family Christmas 2023

What an awesome property to host our family (17) for our Christmas vacation 2023. The amenities were amazing from the kitchen to the Master suite, upstairs apartment and the crows nest. Anything you could possibly need is right there for your use. The grandkids enjoyed my serenading of Sittin on the Dock of the Bay when I’d head outside. The kids, wife and even myself enjoyed kayaking as well as paddle boarding We hope to book this property again during a warmer time of year.

Loved our stay.

Our families often rent properties all over the country. This was definitely one of our favorites. It’s situated very nicely with the idea of enjoying the outside amenities as well spending quality time with the people you love. It was an outstanding property and we enjoyed it very much.

Amazing vacation for our family!

The house was perfect. We felt like we were in an island of our own. The kids spent hours in the warm waters.....safe for all ages and we had dolphins swim around us almost daily. It’s a perfect place for a big family to enjoy and make memories. We would definitely love to rent the Gulf Breeze Lodge again next year.

This house was the perfect size for our family of 12…..and we didn’t even use 6 of the twin beds. It is located 30 minutes from Pensacola Beach. The house had so many fun activities that some days we didn’t leave the house. The owners communicated very well and were quick to respond. We will definitely stay at this house again.

The property is gorgeous, so clean, has everything you need. We only left the house for ice! The bay is gorgeous and we saw dolphins every day. The rooms are beautiful and spacious. Diana and her team have a strong attention to detail and want you to have the perfect stay! This is my second time at the lodge and we will be going back!

Amazing Place to stay!

This is the second time we have stayed at Bayfront. The first year we enjoyed the cabin. This year we had a much larger group so we decided on the lodge. We were very pleased. It is the perfect location, just a short drive to Navarre Beach and it offers plenty to entertain the family right there at the lodge as well. The house was very accommodating and clean. We will definitely be back.

Celebrating Dad’s Life

Thank you for bringing our large family under one roof to celebrate our Dad’s life. The house accommodated the gathering of his six children and their extended families with activities for the young and old. We would definitely use this property again for our next visit. We highly recommended this place for its quiet, beautiful view so relaxing to reflect.
