Is there a good amount of people who stay up by the days in and the west side of the beach or do a lot of people just tend to stay where boardwalk and the clubs are..

most people stay either around the clubs....or they like to stay on the main drag of Thomas Drive, generally around where the Shops of Edgewater are. Around that area is known as "The Strip" and has restaraunts, shops, bars, and alot of nightlife around that area. Hotels around there are the MAJESTIC, HOLIDAY INN SUNSPREE RESORT, AND SUPER 8...if you have any more questions, feel free to ask

would 350 be expensive for a 5 person stay for the week at the boardwalk?? or is there a better rate for that place?

for an entire week? that honestly isn't that bad because that would only add up to around 50-70 dollars a night...

What would you say is the best place to stay?

THere is a group of 9 of us coming from wisconsin march 15-22. We are staying in a 2BR corner unit and a 1 BR unit both at the summit. The total came out to 250$ a guy for 7 nights. It is much cheaper trying to find a private renter. We are flying from milwaukee to pensacola and taking a 25$ shuttle to PCB. total trip with air , shuttle and accomodations is about
$500 for the week per person.

as wisco said...try private renters...they are usually more particular about who they rent out to but it often comes out more affordable in the end

Wisco, just wondering where you found that private renters.. or where to look? Like I said im looking for a 5 person place somewhere around the action is and for 250 would work for us.

vbro.com, craigslist.com, and vacationrentals.com. We needed 2 condos so we found a lady who owned 2 of them on the second floor @ the summit. Because we rented 2 I believe she gave us a little discount.

Last year me and my friends stayed at a private condo which was way to far. So we wanted to get a place close to the action, and we knew people who stayed at the Casa Blanca (which is right next to the Sunspree) and they liked it. Well after I booked it, there was mixed reviews and not many people talk about it on here. So is it a bad place or what? If anyone is staying there or knows about it let me know!

People stay all the way down the beach, so don't think there won't be anyone on the west end, b/c there will be and there will be lots of parties down there also.

I love renting from private renters. The rooms are so much more home like and you usually have less hassle unlike the larger complexes.
try to find a studio at homeawaydotcom I have used them in the past.
