The 209-room beachfront property is ideal for leisure, business, and family travelers, offering the Gulf Coast’s largest lazy river, modern and spacious fitness center, fast wifi, central AC, complimentary breakfast, delicious on-site dining, and much more.
PENSACOLA BEACH, Fla. — Soaring 11 stories into the Island’s clear blue skies, the all-new Fairfield Inn & Suites Pensacola Beach (fairfieldpensacolabeach.com) officially opens today.
The 209-room, $75 million beachfront property — a collaboration between Gulf Breeze-based Innisfree Hotels (innisfreehotels.com) and Dallas-based RREAF Holdings (rreaf.com) — stands on the site of the former Best Western Beachside Resort, a beloved Pensacola Beach hotel that was razed after sustaining severe damage from Hurricane Sally in 2020. Rebuilding the space as a brand-new Fairfield Inn & Suites has allowed the Partners to create a safe, modern, fun, and inviting property that is perfect for vacationers, families, and business travelers.
“In many ways, this milestone opening of the Fairfield Inn & Suites Pensacola Beach marks the final piece of the Island’s recovery from Hurricane Sally,” said Ted Ent, President and CEO of Innisfree Hotels. “We’re proud to once again provide the community with a new, robust hotel that has incredible accommodations and amenities to attract locals and visitors for many years to come.”
Among the new Fairfield Inn & Suites Pensacola Beach’s highlights:
“Having been here for the Best Western days and now being part of this Fairfield Inn & Suites project, it is truly rewarding to introduce our community to this amazing new property,” said Seth Fagan, General Manager of Fairfield Inn & Suites Pensacola Beach, adding that the hotel created about 200 local jobs. “From the lazy river to the fitness center to Fish Heads to the guest rooms, there is not one detail we overlooked, and we cannot wait for locals and visitors to experience it all for themselves.”
“Our collaboration with Innisfree Hotels brings together our collective strengths in both commercial real estate and hospitality to create a remarkable experience for guests,” said Mitch Provosty, Chief Financial Officer of RREAF Holdings. Provosty also noted, “Through this partnership, we are not only offering something new and exciting for residents directly in the area, but are also helping to attract outside business to Pensacola Beach, creating a steady opportunity for financial and community growth.”
The hotel is located at 16 Via de Luna Dr., Pensacola Beach. For more information and to book a stay, visit fairfieldpensacolabeach.com or call 850-932-1889.
