Come enjoy not only a vacation but a way of life on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The Gulf Palms Cottage is located on a quiet and safe street in Long Beach just three blocks from the beach and harbor. With huge Live Oaks, the balmy sea breezes and plenty of outdoor space the cottage is situated in the center of everything the Coast has to offer. Our comfortable 3 bedroom, 1 ½ bath cottage is just moments from great restaurants such as Steve’s Marina, Bulls, Harbor View Café and Darwell’s. The exciting night life of Biloxi with its casinos and entertainment is only a short drive down the beach. For the “Salt Life” there is great pier fishing, Charter boats, beach volleyball, beach fire pits and the longest beach front on the Coast are just blocks away. With the free splash pad, City Park that features outdoor movies and music and the developing city center two blocks from the cottage there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Grocery stores and Walmart are a few minutes’ drive with Edgewater Mall , Premium Outlet Mall, Crossroads Mall and numerous boutiques all less than 20 minutes from the cottage. For those that desire more adventure there are several outstanding day trips within an hour from the cottage………New Orleans, Mobile, Ship Island and scores of historical and interesting destinations around the area.

Quiet getaway

Harold was extremely helpful and communicated all information about the house and things to do in the area! The house was located in a nice quiet neighborhood! Great place to just relax! The house has a nice little screen porch where we had our breakfast every morning! Overall we had a great time at Harold’s place!

Sisters vacation

My sisters and I go to the Mississippi coast (specifically the Long Beach area) every fall to get away and enjoy each other. Gulf Palms cottage has been a favorite of ours for the last 3 years. It's a cozy set up and just 2-3 blocks from the beach, as well as being close to good food and entertainment. The hosts are top notch!!

Nice, small three-bedroom house. Very clean. Plenty of kitchen equipment and linens. Off street enough as neighbors can be a little loud intermittently. Good location. Hosts very accommodating.

Great Quiet Getaway

We wanted a relaxing getaway with our family pet do do some fishing with our boat. Weather was fantastic, house was comfortable and relaxing with everything needed to cook and not have to eat out. Loved the screen porch. Reminded me of the many years in my childhood visiting the coast. The host is very accommodating to your needs. Highly recommended

Great property

Very homey feel. Property was very clean and very well thought out. The lot was huge for a residential neighborhood with beautiful trees.The palm tree in front was dropping fruit. We like the fruit too. Harold made sure he covered everything for check in/out. Definitely recommend if staying in the area!

Girls trip

This was the absolute best VRBO experience we have ever had. The house is so cute and has everything you could even think about needing and then some! There are even games, books and movies for entertainment if you don’t feel like going out. So conveniently located near everything we needed. Harold was so communicative and answered all our questions so quickly. Not only that, he went out of his way to check in and give us suggestions for our 4th of July experience! 10/10 recommend this property and this host!!

Decent home, but nothing fancy

The property manager was truly wonderful. He provided all information i could want and more. I really appreciated the whole process of renting this home. It is definitely an older home. One of the doors was off enough that we pushed a couch in front of it to feel comfortable at night. It locked, but barely. The shower also struggled quite a bit, we cpuld either have hot or cold nothing in between. The AC struggled, during the day it couldn't keep up and didnt go below 79 until well after dark. The area is great and the home had a ton of availablt extras on the way of beach equipment, grill, kitchen things, etc. Overall it was a decent stay.
