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

The cottage is a great place for a beach getaway. We had our own bedrooms. We enjoyed hanging out and talking in the living room. The place is very clean. It is close many eating places and the ferry for Ship Island.

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!!

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.

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.

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!

This is our second time staying at Gulf Palms Cottage. Super close to the beach with everything you need for your stay. We love to stay on Long Beach and this house is perfect for our family of four!

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.

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. 👍

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!

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.

A totally AWESOME vacation house!
Renting this house was effortless!!
We changed our dates, which was absolutely no problem! We had lots of communication with the owner of the house! The house is beautiful, spacious, has a beautiful screened in porch, everything you would need for the beach, lots of room for playing in the yard, and very close to the beach! It could not have been an easier, more relaxing experience renting this vacation home!!

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 vacation
Overall a beautiful cottage just minutes from the beach. Everything was all ready for us when we got there and we had no worries at all. Just rest and relaxation. You are minutes from away from restaurants, casinos, parks and shopping.

Our stay at Harold&Claire’s place was great!! Location was good. They were quick to answer any questions before and during our stay. I loved the French touches in the house. The yard was great and tables perfect. We noticed the fire pit too late to enjoy it but the shed is a cavern full of treasures. We had a blast and definitely recommend the place to y’all and will go back. Thanks, merci Claire and Harold!

Great stay!
Spotless! Has everything you might need. Cottage is exactly as pictured. All nice sized rooms. Felt very much "at home." In a nice neighborhood. Walked the dog to the University area or the other direction to a nice park area every day. HUGE front yard. Harold was promptly in touch for any questions. Caretaker lives a few blocks away. Beach is 3 blocks. Winn Dixie grocery is also a few blocks. There are only a couple bar/restaurants open in that area of the beach. Several are closed for repairs from hurricanes. There are several others within 3-6 blocks of the cottage and one block off the beach. Walk or drive. It is a quieter area. So if you are looking for a low key, relaxing area, this is nice. If you are looking for more action, you may want to be closer to Gulf Port. But it would be busier!

Thanksgiving get away
Needed a place for a small Thanksgiving get away, and this place was perfect. Place was great and near the beach. Nice small coastal town.

Wonderful and Quiet
We highly recommend staying at this cottage! Great neighborhood, quiet, plenty of space indoors and outdoors, kitchen fully equipped, and very clean. Harold and Claire are great people to rent from! We enjoyed sitting outdoors in the breeze while the kids played in the big yard. There’s plenty of beach toys and chairs in the shed, too. We always love visiting Long Beach, and our family and friends who live there! If we have to rent on another trip, we will definitely stay here!

Perfect Cottage for Vacation
This cottage is perfect for your family vacation. Located between Gulfport and Pass Christian, it's just a few blocks from the beach in a very quiet neighborhood. The beds are comfortable and there is plenty of space in the living room and kitchen. The kitchen has everything you need during your stay. The storage shed has additional beach chairs if you need extra for your day at the beach. Howard provides excellent communication regarding your stay--by far the best I've received when making a reservation. We had a great stay and will certainly book again!

Thoroughly pleased!!!
My daughter and I were both very impressed with all of the thoughtful items that were at the house. She is 18. The location was perfect for us and everything we wanted to do. We will definitely be reserving this again in the future, and bringing my 7 year old son next time. Highly recommend for any age or dynamics. Prompt communication and very kind informative owners!

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.
