Great place. We will definitely come again. Close to everything. My only complaint is that check out is at 10am. It’s hard to get a family up, fed, packed and out the door that early.

We enjoyed the stay in the Main Suite. It was the perfect place to stay in Ocean Springs. Everything was supplied in the suite. It was close to everything which made it convenient. It was very clean. Our pup was with us and could go to the beach with us. We will visit again!

The property and neighborhood are beautiful. We have stayed here multiple times. You can hear a bit of traffic at night leaving the beach but it is not horrible. Easy to walk to the beach. Golf carts are available for rent on Government Street to cruise around the area. Plenty of eats, shops, and parks.

Great location!!

The location of this property was perfect! Especially if you are looking to stay somewhere with kids. It was within walking distance of the beach, close enough that our little ones made the walk easily, and the return walk gave the kids enough time to dust off the majority of the sand. The washer and dryer was a must when taking the kids to the beach. There are two parks just a short walk away as well that my children loved visiting. Overall, the property was beautiful and we had a lovely stay!
