Great place to rest and relax. Great views of the Gulf and very low traffic area. Sandwiched between two great shopping areas (Bay St Louis & Ocean Springs) Will definitely return next year.

Shell House is the epitome of southern charm. We began our stay in the bungalow, which was "Southern Living Magazine" adorable. After the first night, our host graciously offered the pool house to us in anticipation of fence construction near the bungalow. The pool house was larger with a full kitchen, lovely decor, and easy access to the pool. The walk down the front drive to the beach is dreamy. We even spotted an eagle! Thank you, Lydia, for sharing your lovely spaces with us.

This was our first VRBO experience, so had no idea what to expect… was a little nervous, BUT, what an enchanting place it was to stay. Large green lawn under old live oaks. Full view of bay from front yard. Complete privacy. Detailed decor throughout. Will definitely go back.

Great spot. Enjoyed the privacy, in spite of multiple guests on the property. Found the property as advertised, and we thoroughly enjoyed the week. Everything straightforward, and up front.

Great location. Private Beach was great.

What an awesome place and property! I would recommend it to anyone. Wish we could have stayed there longer. Thanks

The Bungalow was very beautiful, clean and comfortable. It was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. We certainly enjoyed our time there.

Great property. Very Quiet and restful. Our cabin was well-furnished and beautiful. We found some very delightful restaurants nearby and Mary Mchoney, Beloxie, should not be missed.

We really enjoyed our stay! Such a beautiful experience for us. We would definitely stay again and recommend it to orthers!!

Beautiful property! Right across from the beach. Beach area not crowded AT ALL! Just what we wanted! Our little bungalow was nice and private.We really loved the covered patio area with the outdoor cook top. We made breakfast out there both mornings we were there. There was great amenities. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash in the shower. Q-tips. Laundry pods for the washer and dryer. Dishwasher tabs for the dishwasher. We had our own beach stuff, but there was a ton available for use. Beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, sand toys! Pool was beautiful and had many chairs to sit at and floaties and toys to use in the pool! There was extra “fun” stuff that we didn’t get a chance to use, but was available such as a ping pong table, bean bag toss, croquet, boche ball, and more! Lydia was great at responding to any messages I sent through VRBO. She also came out and introduced herself and said to call her if we needed anything. Other than that meeting, hardly noticed her there so she definitely was not intrusive at all! Would HIGHLY recommend! It was small and cozy, but PERFECT for 3-4 people and MUCH nicer then staying in a hotel room!!

This property checked all the boxes for our trip. Beautifully decorated and incredibly comfortable.

The accommodations were superlative and the grounds.were madnificent>

This was a unique and beautiful property. Lydia was so kind to our daughter, and even brought out new yard games for her.

Great host! Loved the property. The outdoor patio was wonderful and we enjoyed a relaxing evening around the fire pit. The views from the pool were spectacular - Just the perfect southern setting. The location was a plus too!

It was such a cute place to stay and be close to great dining and only steps from the beach. The outdoor space was even better than expected. Lydia was easy to communicate with and was a great host.

The place was great, very peaceful and quaint. Note to others...there is a brown book by the door that has info about things like wifi, trash, etc. Would def stay again!

Our first time to the Gulf coast and we loved it! The bungalow was so charming...everything about it. The surrounding lawns and gardens were so beautiful & picturesque...and the location is perfect. A few steps to the beach and close to shopping & restaurants. We look forward to going back!

Regarding the property as well as Lydia, We were very impressed! Even when I spilled my coffee while enjoying our last morning, Lydia was understanding (coffee on a white couch probably wasn't smart for me) I will stay again! Jason and Brodey

This was the third time we stayed at this property. Great as always, we will definitely be back!

A great spot with all the amenities you'd ever want!

We did not stay at this home, I booked this home the first week on Aug 2022 and on Oct 20 the home owner reached out to me and said VBRO over booked and that she needed to go with the first booking and moved me to her daughters house. I reached out to VRBO where I was told no that is not true. The daughters home was cute but not what we paid for. I think this home owner had a chance to rent out her pool house and her cottage to one person so she went with it. We were not compensated for our inconvenience. We were in Mississippi for a event, a birthday celebration and ours friends wedding. Hugh disappointment. This home is listed on VRBO and another site and I believe she did not update either site and this resulted in this issue or something. The daughters home was beautiful, the daughter was pleasant to deal with. Can not answer anything about the above home. Would not recommend this listing as this situation could happen to you. We were coming from Fort Worth, Tx if I would not had reached out to home owner the morning before leaving about bringing my friends she wouldn’t had know (supposedly the double booking) we would’ve arrived and had no place to stay.

Cozy, lots of extras (games, Wi-Fi, tv, etc.). Beautiful property. Will definitely stay again.

We loved it Nice size for us and loved the location and we will be back. I glad that we got a change to stay there.

This bungalow is very nice! Close to most of what the MS gulf has to offer. Extremely clean and homie. We only got to stay one of our two planned nights, but I can definitely see staying at this spot again.

Property is absolutely gorgeous, located literally steps away from miles of pristine white sandy beach. I visited from 8/7 - 8/11/2022, the weather was warm and sunny with occasional rain showers. The rain usually cleared quickly. I was able to enjoy daily runs along the boardwalk which lined the beach, right off highway 90. Everything was located minutes away. Entertainment, night life, multiple casinos, fine dining, shopping, beaches, all within a short drive or walk from the property. Check it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed!

The bungalow was our perfect mini getaway. Wonderful amenities and a very kind and accommodating host. The property is beautiful and we can not wait to return

We loved this tucked-away hidden gem. Southern Living styled bungalow was cozy and full of fabulous decor with a great porch and access to the home's pool. We only stayed one night and wished we had stayed longer! It's a great find full of charm.

COULDN'T BEAT IT WITH A STICK
