The Beach House

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.

Let’s start with our bedrooms.   The master offers a king bed with a premium mattress.  You will sleep soundly after a day at the beach.  Our dressers and closet will hold your clothing, no need to work out of a suitcase.

Our magnificent tiled bathrooms with quartz countertops make you feel as if you have stepped into a 5-star hotel (you have).  The shared bathroom includes a large tiled shower.  The master bath not only has a large tiled shower, it also has a large bathtub for a long soak after a tough night at the casino.

Your stay would not be complete without a large open space to socialize.  The giant flat-screen TV and ample seating permit family and friends to watch an important game or other entertainment.  WIFI is of course offered free of charge.

For those who would like a glass of wine or other beverage, our bar with seating is a cozy place for an intimate conversation while others enjoy the backyard or watch TV.

Guests will receive a code to use our electronic lock, a great way to ensure that all guests can gain access. The house has of course air conditioning and heating. The kitchen is fully equipped with a stove, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, and of course our coffee service. Pots, pans, and everything you need to prepare meals are available for you.

The private yard is all yours and contains a fire pit and a BBQ ready for your enjoyment. The yard is fenced on three sides away from the street. Parking is available for three vehicles just outside the entrance door. Our property is freshly renovated with all new furniture and updated kitchen appliances.

While this is a brick house, you may be interested to know that it was built in 1880 and has gone through some changes since that time. Your accommodation will be located in one of two ground-level units that are part of a single building (a duplex). Each of the two units has its private entrance and a private yard.

This modern property is so close to the beach that there is no need to drive. Great restaurants are within a five-minute drive as are the Discovery Center and Centennial Plaza. The Mississippi Aquarium is ten minutes away. Several casinos offer not only great restaurants but also entertainment.

We named this property the Least Tern Nest after the Least Tern found on the beach near this property. These birds are protected and their nesting areas are fenced off on the beach to protect their eggs. This beautiful bird reflects what we offer at this property. FYI, this building was built in 1880, that’s 142 years ago. It’s as charming now as it was when it was built and the owners pulled up in their horse-drawn carriage.

PETS:  A small dog is permitted upon request and after payment of the pet fee.
