Welcome to Le Petit Retreat- your cozy, dog-friendly escape in the heart of Old Town Bay St. Louis.

Le Petit Retreat features a fully fenced backyard- perfect for traveling with pets- and is tucked away on a quiet one-way street in the "sweet spot" of Old Town… close enough to walk, bike, or golf cart to the beach, shops, and restaurants, yet far enough to enjoy a peaceful residential setting where you can truly relax and recharge.

Designed with simplicity and comfort in mind, this home reflects the spirit of classic mid-century living: a place to slow down, connect, and enjoy time with family and friends while exploring the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

We had such a wonderful week at Le Petit Retreat! The house was clean, comfortable, and cozy, and had so many nice touches like fully stocked coffee supplies, extra blankets for the couch, and really anything you needed that you would find at home but never in a hotel or normal rental. The location is fantastic - walkable to shops, bars and restaurants, and the beach! Amanda was so responsive and wonderful to work with. Would highly recommend, I am sure we will be back again!

Great location to shops, restaurant, and late night life. Neighbors were nice as well. At night, we enjoyed sitting in the front chairs and watching the stars under the beautiful tree. Will stay again

Nice comfortable house within walking distance to everything!

It was a nice and relaxing place to stay! Easy to keep clean and had no issues at all. We will definitely be booking there again in the future! The street is a one way street so the traffic was minimal. Thanks for a great vacay!

Great stay in the Bay

Our stay was perfect! The house is really really cute. Everything was very convenient and clean. We did a lot of walking back-and-forth to the shops in the restaurants. Our dogs also loved the neighborhood during their walks.

Cutest house in the best location!

We could not have been pleased with our stay! The online photos are great but they didn’t do the house justice. So cute! And very well stocked (from ziplock bags and coffee to spices and laundry detergent)! We will def be back!!

Great Location and Host

This property is perfectly located in downtown Bay St. Louis on a street that did not have a lot of traffic which was great for our pet. We met one of the neighbors and their pet, they were very pleasant. The house was clean, fully equipped with pots, pans, plates, utensils, etc. It had everything we needed. The property is walking distance to beach, the marina, downtown restaurants, coffee shops and other stores. A lot of them were pet friendly. Our host was very responsive when we communicated and made the process easy. Thank you so much, we will be back!

Perfect place to stay if you are looking for rest and relaxation.

This property was exactly as described online. My husband and I wanted a brief break from the busyness of our daily routines and we found this cozy place to stay. He likes peace and quiet and I like to be in the middle of things. We found the right balance here. We were just far enough away to not hear the nightlife in the main area of town but it wasn't so far you couldn't walk there if you wanted to. The house was very clean, things were labeled, and the owner is very generous in letting you use the items in the house - spices, cookware, etc. The bed was comfortable and everything worked the way it should. We had no trouble accessing our rental and everything was communicated very well. This is the perfect size for a couple or a small family.
