What people like about the Village of DeLuna

Tristán de Luna y Arellano led a 1559 expedition of approximately 1,500 people to Pensacola Bay — a settlement that predated St. Augustine, the oldest continuously occupied European city in the US, by six years. The settlement was abandoned after two years, but it was the first multi-year European settlement in what is now the United States. For buyers who find historical character meaningful, DeLuna carries a specific historical reference. For golf, Lowlands Executive Golf Course is in the Village of Marsh Bend, at 197 Marsh Bend Trail.
