SNOWBIRDS, LONGER STAY RATES ARE AVAILABLE AT THE BEACH HOUSE, ASK US

Welcome to the Beach House located in beautiful Long Beach, MS.  You must stay with us and enjoy all of the amenities this terrific home exudes.  Completely remodeled, it reminds you of a new model home except that model homes are not as well decorated or outfitted with everything you need for a great stay on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Sea the View

 

Spend your vacation or weekend by the beach.  Our property Sea the View townhome is a perfect getaway.  Two bedrooms will accommodate four people.  A queen bed in one bedroom with two twin beds in the second bedroom. Each bedroom has its own bathroom.  You will be blown away by the beach views from the balcony.

If you like the balcony off of the bedroom, check out the deck off the kitchen, a great view of the beach.

About our rates:  This property is the owner’s second home as such, they have decorated it with original art and beautiful furnishings.  This is not the typical vacation condo with dollar store furniture.  You will notice the difference when you walk through the door.

The first floor contains the living area, kitchen, laundry, and 1/2 bath.  The second floor contains bedrooms and full baths along with a balcony.

You will love the original art hanging on the walls.  The “beachy” feel of the Sea the View is great in large part due to the owner’s attention to detail in their decorating and choice of furnishings.  We believe that you will have no issues giving us a five-star rating.

Cook your meals right in our great kitchen fully stocked with cooking and eating implements.  This townhome is an open concept so you can cook and converse with your guests unless, of course, they are out on one of the decks or patios.  For those who can’t find enough things to do around the area, we have flat-screen TVs and free WIFI.

A large porch by the front door affords views of the beach but the best is the back deck where you can watch ships in the distance and the Least Terns fly around the beach.  You may be lucky and see a passing dolphin.  Our property is located in the lovely city of Long Beach.  A small town with the friendliest people on earth.

A BBQ is located near the clubhouse and is available for your use.

Locally owned restaurants serve seafood, cajun, and creole fare along with traditional Southern food.  Walk around downtown Long Beach or take a short drive to Bay St. Louis and catch some jazz.  12 casinos are available for your entertainment pleasure.  All of the casinos have restaurants along with live entertainment venues.

Love fishing, so why not?  Just walk across the street to the beach and cast a line.  During certain times of the year, you can catch flounder with a long stick right in the shallow water near the beach.  Of course, there are many things to do along the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  Check out our “Activities” page.

Free parking just outside of the unit.  Please book on this site or you can book on Airbnb or VRBO.

A good reason to select this property is that Christies Gulf Beach Rentals management live and work in the area.  We are not remote managers nor do we hire cleaners to manage the property.  You can expect prompt communication from individuals who know the area and can assist you with all of your needs from finding a local restaurant to an auto repair shop.
