You will know you are on vacation from the moment you walk through the door. Every room is a reflection of life on the coast. Decorated with beach decor and tranquil colors, you will have no problem relaxing. The furniture was custom ordered to ensure a look you won't find anywhere else. With an open floor plan, friends and family can visit with each other while sitting in the kitchen or reclining on the sofa. There is a great view of the Mississippi Sound from the living room. Soft cream hardwood floors flow throughout the house.

Each bedroom has its own unique style. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and 26'' wall mounted flat panel TV and view of the gulf. Enjoy the claw-foot tub & separate marble shower adjoining the master bedroom. The second bedroom has a king size bed, and 32'' wall mounted flat panel TV. The third bedroom has one full size bed and one twin bed, french doors leading out to the deck and backyard.


All three bedrooms have room darkening curtains for the times you want a mid-day nap after an early round of golf, a fishing adventure, or maybe all night gambling. When you are hanging out in the living room enjoy the huge 60'' TV in a custom built entertainment center. We provide wireless high speed internet so don't forget your laptop.



The house is located on a quiet historical street one block north of US90 (Beach Blvd). Most of the effects of Katrina have been cleared away but there are still empty lots that stand as a memorial to the devastation that coastal residents endured eight years ago. If you enjoy walks, this is the street for you. We are one block from gorgeous white sandy beaches and a park is within walking distance with tennis courts and a playground.

.

Spend time outdoors in our landscaped yard, fully enclosed with a privacy fence. Cook on the natural gas grill while kids play on 'hopscotch' walkway. A picnic table provides plenty of room for dining and a covered deck keeps you out of the sun while waiting on your meal.
The Ship Island Excursion docks just two miles from the house. In just 5 minutes you are at the Island View Casino in Gulfport or in 15 minutes you can be at one of the many casinos in Biloxi. Take a day trip to New Orleans 60 miles away.

The golf courses are too many to name. We invite you to stay at the Gulf Breeze Cottage and enjoy the year round fun the gulf coast has to offer! Please note the maximum occupancy of 9 at the Gulf Breeze Cottage.

If you are not familiar with Gulfport there are a couple things we like our prospective guests to know. There are train tracks that run approximately two blocks north of the beaches. You will be able to hear trains run from most anywhere you stay that you have access to the beaches. We personally love the beaches and the water there. Some people though are disappointed since they expect large waves and clear water. This is the Mississippi Sound and the water has a murky quality to it. It is very shallow and you can walk out in it without it getting very deep for quite a ways. We find the beaches peaceful by our house and seldom crowded. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and everyone has their own opinion of the perfect beach.

                        I just returned from my stay at the gulf breeze cottage. My family and I stayed for 3 days to visit with my stepson who is deploying for iraq on the 10 th. Most motels and hotels were going from 80$ to 120$ a nite and you at best get 600 square feet and a microwave. The gulf breeze cottage gave us plenty of space to visit and the decor is beautifull. We were able to fix up all his favorite home cooked meals in the well furnished kitchen.I have stayed in timeshares before and this place beats them all. It seems like everything is brand new. Just wanted you to know that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying again.

                        Owner response: We appreciate all the sacrifices the military families have made for our country and we are thankful we are able to rent a place they can call home for a few days.

                        Beautiful home. It looks small from the picture, but it is not small at all, very roomy and comfortable. There are plenty of little "reading nooks" for your "me time". A welcoming front porch to sit on. Beautiful art pieces from local artisans and some from the owner herself. Short walk to the beach and go just a couple of blocks and you can catch the Ship Island excursion. I would highly recommend McElroy's Seafood in Biloxi for lunch or dinner. They have just reopened after the destruction of hurricane Katrina. But our favorite seafood restaurant was BB's Seafood in Ocean Springs. Just a short 20 minute drive and they are only open for lunch from 11-3. You won't want to miss it!

                        We stayed for 6 nights during spring break, and it was perfect. The house is as depected in the listing, and looks even better than the photos. The interior was designed to have a relaxed beach feeling, so you feel at home the moment you walk in. The kitchen is fully equiped, we always found what we needed, and having a washer and dryer meant we did not have to pack for 6 nights. We had two adult couples and two middle aged children, so the three bedrooms with 4 beds was perfect for us. The beach is only 1 block away, so a very easy walk. The attractions we liked best were the Daufin Island and the Cajun swap tour outside Slidel, LA - both were a bit of a drive, but worth it.

                        What a professional remodeling project and interior design scheme to a veteran cottage of the Mississippi Gulf Coast!!! The home is a perfect example of beach style decor, with beautiful tall ceilings, crown molding, wood floors that begged for bare feet, and an open floor plan that made the cottage seem huge. A cozy front porch for watching the gulf waves, and a back porch complete with views of nesting bluebirds. Even our teenage son enjoyed every minute here, especially the huge flat screen TV for his X-Box games. Professional appliances and a fantastic outside grill. We were even greeted with a beautiful arrangement of fresh-cut flowers on the living room table. Ceiling fans everywhere kept things cool. Everythng was immaculately clean, and the owners went out of their way to make our stay memorable. Only later did we learn that they had even left the cottage a day early (staying in a downtown Biloxi casino), so that our family could have the house for the whole length of our vacation. Now that's what I call Southern hospitality!!!

                        We just returned home from Mississippi. The pictures of this home don't do it justice. It's even better than the pictures. The house was a great place to stay. It was very comfortable for two couples. The property is very well maintained and clean. When you first drive up you think it may be quite small but once you step inside you see that it is very spacious and welcoming. If we ever return to the area we definitely would stay at this property again.

                        Untill last year my husband and I had stayed in area hotels. We had talked about how nice it would be if our children could come down and experience the festival. I found this cottage on VRBO and now we believe it's the best option for us. Donna is the nicest most accomodating person to deal with! The cottage was immulate and "like we walked into a magazine." A few of our kids and gk's did make it down and it was so perfect. Two of our girls were so in love with the decor that they took pics and are being "copy cats" redecorating their bedrooms... We hope to be back this year.

                        We've rented from many vrbo owners and Donna is just excellent. Everything is as promised - no surprises really and this home had lots of careful details that other places we've rented lacked. The set up is perfect for two small dogs and the things I liked the most were living room seating that can easily accomate 4-6 adults and I liked the neighborhood the house is in. It's a picturesque, quiet residential area and the living room can comfortably seat at least 7 with ease because of a very large TV that gives everyone a good seat. About the only thing we weren't expecting was the unseasonably warm heat at this time of year - but it was good beach weather, the casinos were fun and the house AC worked beautifully. Thanks Donna and we will definitley rent again here. Our "babies" thank you too.

                        Hi Donna, Your house is amazing! We loved it and took care of it like it was our own. I will pray that every tenant that you get will take special care of your home because all of the work and love that you have put into it is very evident. We loved the view and the peaceful backyard. We drove by the treehouse cottage and wished we had seen the inside. My mom especially loved her room with the big King bed and I loved mine with the soaker tub! I just can't say enough about how beautiful your house is. We noticed every detail, from the hand painted tiles on the backsplash and the corian counters, to the bosch appliances. Top of the line throughout--my mom really appreciated the quality of the linens! Thank you for letting us enjoy your wonderful vacation home! I can't wait to bring my husband there to see it! Blessings,

                        This house is exactly as advertised. Virtually everything in the house is new. The location is perfect: near the beach and in the center of the gulf coast. It is also located in a great neighorhood with a large park several blocks away.

                      Year Purchased: 2009

                      About the owner: My husband and I enjoy this area so much we bought a second home here. We lead busy lives but this is our chance to catch our breath and just enjoy life a little because it sure is going by fast.

                      Why the Owner Chose Gulfport:
                      We looked at several locations along the coast but kept coming back to Gulfport. The beach is just a block away and the house is close to everything else we enjoy doing on vacation.
