Gulf Palms Cottage....Walking distance-beach, cafes, town center. Quiet area.

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!!

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

It was a really nice place.

We really enjoyed our stay. This is a really nice little cottage for your family to stay if you go to Gulfport Mississippi. All you need is right there. The beach is close and so is Walmart. We would have and recommend this place to others.

Short gulf Beach getaway

This place was very "homey" we enjoyed our stay as there was plenty of space and plenty of things to do while in the home and plenty of things to do within walking distance of the home. Very nice neighborhood. Great restaurants nearby. The home was very well furnished with everything we would need plus some. All in all in was a great stay. 👍

Close to the beach

Host was very easy to communicate with, the house is as described and in a great location with easy access to the beach. Centrally located on the Gulf Coast. The place is very spacious and we only used one of the bedrooms, nice to sit on the screened in front porch.

Great stay! Poor timing :-(

WE certainly did enjoy everything about the place, but right after we got there, the corona virus became an issue and almost all activities we wanted to enjoy, were closed down :-( On the other hand, the weather and beaches and fishing, were GREAT :-) Jim & Kris B.

All the amenities you could need

The owner was extremely knowledgeable of the area. He was always available for communication. The cottage was just far enough away from Biloxi to have some peace and quite but close enough to be near everything you could possible need. It was a short walk to the beach. Beds and sofas were very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Beach towels, chairs, etc. were available for use. I would definitely recommend.

Seniors Getaway on the Coast

Our vacation started right after Hurricane Ida hit the area. Our hosts were very communicative about the condition of the cottage and area in general. We had a great time. The cottage was very roomy and yet extremely cozy. Aldo well supplied -- we didn't need half of things we brought because it was well stocked with dishes, cooking utensils, towels, etc. And, it was o ky a couple of blocks from the beach. PERFECT! I will be booking with them again! .

Perfect

Great price for: each of the kids to have their own bedroom, lovely cozy screened porch to have my morning tea, well appointed kitchen to cook dinner and breakfast, grill, shed full of beach accessories, and covered outside eating area. Harold, the host, is kind, attentive, and always quick to respond to my questions! Definitely saving to my favorites to try to rent again in the future.

Lovely!

We loved our stay here! The home is in a very quiet neighborhood. There was plenty of space for us and Harold and Claire had provided everything we needed to live comfortably for the five days we were there. The kitchen was well-equipped and had everything we needed to make a few meals here and to store and heat up leftovers from the great near by restaurants. We enjoyed time on the beach (chairs and beach towels are available for guest use at the cottage) and rented a jet ski one afternoon. We had a day trip to New Orleans and went in to Biloxi a few times as well. Harold and Claire made the booking process easy and provided all the information we needed about the home and the area.

Very peaceful.

Everything (except the weather 😢) was great. The owners were easy to work with. The house comes with all we needed for a quick trip to the beach. We loved the the white beaches. Long stretches where we had the whole beach to ourselves. We really liked the size of Long Beach and Pass Christian. We did the Island View casino in Gulfport on the rainiest day. We were able to fish one morning with Joey Garraga. We enjoyed fish from several restaurants in Pass Christian. We’d never been to this area but it’s a destination we’d like to return to soon.

Relaxiing Vacation

It was just my sister and me. We are both senior citizens si we do not do a great deal. We read a lot, and there is a fantastic group of books there. We eat out a lot and we chose restaurants that overlooked the beach. We went to Waffle House for breakfast and Steve's and Shaggys for lunch. I think Shaggys was out favorite. At the house, the screened in porch was so comfortable in the mornings. The cottage itself was comfortable for us. We each had our own bedroom. If we went back to Long Beach, we would stay there again.
