Our Journey

Juana's Pagodas & Sailors' Grill has been family owned and operated since 1989. Steve and Juana met while living in Texas, where Steve worked as an engineer and Juana as a school teacher. Together, they shared a dream of creating a seasonal business that would allow them to spend winters sailing.

That dream brought them to Navarre Beach, drawn by the Caribbean-blue waters and sugar-white sand. In 1989, they acquired a jet ski rental business that made their vision possible. As more family members became involved, Juana's began to grow. Ken brought the idea of serving burgers on the beach, while Kevin envisioned nightlife and great live music. Those ideas helped shape what Juana's would become.
From those humble beginnings, Juana's has grown into a destination offering something for every age and interest, while still holding on to its laid-back beach atmosphere and family roots.
