We absolutely loved this place. It was so nice to have our own house vs. a hotel room but still have the accommodations of a resort. Very safe and clean. The staff couldn’t have been any nicer.
Extremely nice. The home was beautiful the entertainment was amazing. The staff was top tier. I will be returning.

Love Margarittaville places. Staff were super kind and helpful. The room needed a little deep cleaning - walls were marked up and stairs were dirty. We also found drink tops under the nightstand. Otherwise, it was a fabulous place.

Worth every penny!!!
Our family of 3 enjoyed everything about this property that we never needed to leave and we will only stay at Margaritaville beach cottages for future trips to PCB. The staff was so fun and attentive Stephanie at the front desk made us feel welcome and excited and was helpful when we wanted to extend our trip because we were having so much fun. Manager Polly, bartenders Monique, Shadane and pool attendant Akeem made our week so fun and special. The cottages are clean and decorated so thoughtfully with everything you will need to have a comfortable stay. The restaurant serves delicious food and beverages. The pool bar also serves tasty food options and drinks with a different menu. The pool, slides and lazy River were clean and the water was warm. We walked across the street to enjoy the beach. You can checkout towels and body boards and they have a little shop with a cafe to purchase drinks and snacks. The gym had great machines and equipments options. The arcade was great to have on property for the rainy nights in with a hyper 9 year old. We can’t wait to visit again and again. Thank you everyone at Margaritaville for a fun and memorable family vacation! :)

Cottage was beautiful and open space in side! We stayed in a 5 bed/5 bath cottage. Plenty of room for our family of 7!
The bad:
The kitchen fridge leaked water inside from the drink dispenser (we kept a towel inside to help soak it up).
The floors were extremely dirty when we arrived! The bottoms of our feet were black from walking around inside. We mentioned it to the office and we were told there was a broom and mop in our cottage supplied for us! We had checked for these items and only had a mop and a bucket. They delivered a broom later that evening. Wasn’t looking forward to cleaning the house immediately on vacation.
The good:
Plenty of space.
Beds and pillows were very comfortable!
Showers had body wash and shampoo and conditioners ☺️
Anytime you need extra supplies (toilet paper, garbage bags, dishwasher tabs, ect.) the office will have more supplies dropped off to you.
The pool area was AMAZING! Heated lazy river was superb!
We loved the Shirley temples from the bar next to the lazy river!
Plenty of activities to keep kids busy!
Staff were friendly!
The cafe had delicious coffee, however, the kids were not a fan of the hot cocoa.
All in all we would definitely go back! Great location and the pros outweighed the cons!

The property itself is amazing. Both the pool/amenities & house was beautiful and clean.
Unfortunately the on premise service does not meet the same standard. Check in was 4:00, which is on the later side. We arrived at 2:00pm and the said they would text us if our room was ready early. 4:00pm hit and no call so I went back to the front desk to check in and I was told my room was still not ready. Long story short, we finally got in at 4:45, so day one was pretty shot… if you are planning on a short trip (say a couple nights) I could not recommend this place due to the check in issues.
On Friday night I went to the restaurant at 5:30 for dinner. We waited at the hostess stand for 10 minutes to just wait - no one came. No staff to serve dinner…? We had no choice but to get in our car and drive somewhere…
On Saturday afternoon we decided to head over to the pool bar and watch college football. We headed over at 4pm and the bar already closed for the day! 4pm on a Saturday - pool bar closed…
There is another bar just outside the pool that’s connected to the restaurant (the one no one served us the night before). We decided to try it again. We asked them to turn on the TN football game. It took them 20-30 minutes to try. Once they tried, they flips through a few screens and said, “sorry, we don’t have it.” We left, walked to our room, and watched the game inside our room…
In summary - beautiful place, very clean, but non existent guest service.
We LOVED this resort! Not only great for kids but parents as well. The cottages and facilities were amazing and clean. So many cool perks to this place. Book it!

The property is new and exceptional. For families wanting more space and an elevated experience from large hotels there is no better option at the price point. Also great music and margaritas - try the perfect margarita!

While the property is relatively new, it is already showing noticeable signs of wear. In the loft bathroom, part of the wall near the sink was peeling, and the main floor bathroom door would not open beyond about 60 degrees, making the space feel cramped and awkward to use.
The overall service experience was also disappointing. Staff came across as cold and unwelcoming. For instance, when we asked for pool towels, we were simply pointed in their direction without any verbal response or courtesy. On another occasion, after reporting that we repeatedly found spiders in our bed, we overheard a front desk staff member respond over the phone with, “What do you want from me?”—which was both surprising and concerning.
Additionally, the quality of the towels and paper products did not meet expectations. Several towels appeared stained, which raised concerns about cleanliness. We were also disappointed to find that the main pool with the water slides is not heated, resulting in most guests crowding into the heated lazy river.
Overall, the experience fell short of what we anticipated, especially given the property’s relatively recent opening and the price.
