This older quaint home away from home is both cozy and convenient. Located near the beach and downtown it is close to some of the best eating places in the area. Hope to stay again.

Thank you for staying. Glad you liked the house. You are certainly correct, the area is in need of multiple improvements post storm and in beach vicinity as noted in description. Fortunately, the area has vastly improved since I purchased house. For $46 a person a night less than 2 blocks from beach and right near the gorgeous Island View Casino, I hope you found the very reasonable charge logical. I hope you can find a better fit next time.

The Diamond Sparkles!

My sons and I completely enjoyed our stay and Lilly's renovated Diamond Bungalow. Near the beach...just a short drive up the coast to Biloxi....cool and comfortable. The train was actually comforting as childhood nostalgia. We had absolutely no issues whatsoever! Thank you Lilly!

Lovely Place, just absolutely lovely

Lilly, the owner calls this property The Diamond. It is called that because of the many windows, but really it’s a fantastic property in the middle of a neighborhood that is recovering from all the hurricanes. It’s so charming and sweetly decorated. It’s near everything you could need or want to do. We took our kids to the beach at night and during the day, 2 mins away. We also went on a dolphin cruise (4 mins away), gator ranch in Moss point (40 mins away), the discovery center (10 mins), and has lots of fun just hanging out with each other and eating most of our meals in this adorable cozy house. Loved it!

Loved hosting this kind, fun family who found the Diamond after a long year with the Pandemic. So glad timing worked out.. Communication was great and they upheld rules and suggestions. I enjoyed hearing that the kiddos liked the bunk beds and the near-by beach. Welcome anytime.
