Meet Christal, our Pet of the Week at The Driftwood Inn! 💙

This sweet Chihuahua settled right into vacation mode—relaxing on the back deck, taking in the Gulf views, and finding every opportunity for a treat! 🌊🐶 With a view like that and snacks nearby, who could blame her?

We loved welcoming you, Christal! 🐾
