Gulfport Secret

We haven’t visited the area since the early 2000’s. We’ve been looking forward to this trip that ends in Florida for a while. Our rental did not disappoint. It’s a beautiful guest house that’s connected to the main house by a walkway. Despite being so close, we had no issues with privacy. It was well appointed and tastefully decorated. We had no issues during our stay. We would definitely recommend this guest house. It’s walking distance to the beach, it has a great kitchenette, great restaurants and shopping are all very close.

Cozy Beach Get Away

I recommend it to anyone: it is a clean place and a great host. We were there for Cruising the Coast, so we did not stay in the cottage. The host warned us the wifi was not great, but you should get out and enjoy Gulfport anyway. The wifi was working, and it did not affect our stay. Thank you for an amazing week. Wonderful place and we would love to stay there again.

Amazing Beach Getaway

This property was stunning. The pool and yard are in excellent condition as was the house itself. It felt like a luxury getaway tucked in a laid back oasis. You can see the beach from the deck and it was an easy walk. The beds were comfy and their were plenty of towels and separate beach towels. Kitchenette had everything we needed and the owner responded quickly to everything we ask and came out to say hello. The owner and his wife were just the nicest people. Didn’t get in our space but were fun to chat with while we were hanging out by the pool. Highly recommend staying here!

Hostile Host - had to leave for safety reasons

Pros: Cottage is beautifully appointed and clean with most amenities one could need. The location is lovely, a block from the beach and a quick drive into town. Cons: Host was verbally abusive and displayed erratic and unpredictable behavior. Host demanded that we pack our bags and leave. We did not feel safe in the cottage so we made other accommodations for the remainder of our trip. This rental is not safe. Timeline: Thursday/Friday daytime we didn’t see hosts. Friday night we returned to the cottage and proceeded to sit on the pool edge and dip our toes in the water as the pool/deck lights were on. Minutes later, one of the hosts appeared on the balcony overlooking the pool. The host inflated a pool float and dropped it off the balcony and walked down the stairs. The host got in the water and walked across the pool and introduced themselves. We introduced ourselves and we all shook hands. The host then told us we were violating pool hours and we needed to leave. The host’s tone shifted from polite to aggressive. The host began to throw verbal assaults at us as we quickly exited the pool area. The host screamed at us and said we needed to pack our bags and leave. We packed our things in disarray. The host stayed in the pool and was staring up at us in the cottage. As we exited the property (together in one trip as we felt extremely uncomfortable), the host began to yell and scream at us again. We opened the gate, backed out our minivan, and left, shaking.

Great location with relation to the beach

Well kept property, we really enjoyed ourselves. Only thing is the pictures are outdated on the exterior which does not show a house between the rental home and the beach but it is there. Nice home. That would not change me going back and staying there in future.

An awesome place to stay!

We loved our time in Gulfport! The property was exactly as advertised. It was super clean, the owners were very accommodating and easy to work with. After a small issue with the pool heat, they were quick to fix the problem. The ocean (with powder white sand) is just a few steps away. I would recommend this property!
