Quaint hotel

Reviewed By Teessideviewer1

Quaint hotel in a lovely small coastal town well away from hustle and bustle. Really enjoyed sat on the front balcony watching the world go bye. Great way to end a road trip. Hotel is very clean and well kept with great aircon and ample parking. The area feels very safe with numerous restaurants within walking distance.

Collina Plantation Inn

Great gem off the beaten path

Reviewed By lesliekB3944NH

We stayed here one night as we made our way back home from a cross country trip and went off course about 30 minutes and boy was it worth it. Beautiful old Greek Revival home with lovely furnishings, welcoming garden, great breakfast and excellent host in Scott. If you are looking for a change up from your typical interstate hotel, or traveling more of the backroads of MS, this place is for you!!!

Sunnyside Bed & Breakfast

Antebellum Home Sunnyside

Reviewed By yachtcru

The best part of Sunnyside BnB is the owner, Colleen Wilkins. Genteel, friendly, and accommodating, Colleen welcomes you to her antebellum home. The home is filled with unusual items that Colleen has collected through the years, and she has wonderful stories as she takes you on a tour through her home. Her Christmas tours, called "Do You See What I See?", are amazing with 34 Christmas trees in the house with some very special ornaments. I held a surprise birthday party and dinner at Sunnyside for my husband, and it was perfect. The library and dining room are very unique with books on shelves everywhere. There is a grand piano in the library that anyone may sit down and play, and if you are there at the right time, one of the ladies that helps Colleen serve may just break out into song. Besides being a remarkable business woman and BnB proprietor, she is also an accomplished chef. Our Beef Wellington with fresh green beans, twice baked potatoes, and almond cake for dessert was just as delicious as the sumptuous breakfast you receive in the morning. You sink into the canopied beds for a great sleep. Her gardens are well cared for, and Colleen will give you a tour of them also in the spring when everything is blooming. She uses her own flowers and greenery from her gardens in Sunnyside depending on the season. The party and dinner were a huge success, and the overnight stay was relaxing. We are planning on sending everyone to Sunnyside for a magnificent Southern experience.

Clyde and Marie's Bed & Breakfast

INCLUDES ENTIRE HOME DURING YOUR STAY!!! Take a step back in time and come home to this old charm home in a quaint southern town. Enjoy a glass of southern sweet tea and remember how times could have been way back when before all of today's current technology. Remember when people used to sit down and just talk to each other. Enjoy having breakfast outside on the front porch and then have a cup of coffee and read a book while enjoying a beautiful sunset and read a book. Come on home to Clyde and Marie's Bed and Breakfast!

Magical stay!

Reviewed By Mildred5404

Two of my sisters and myself experienced (visited) Clyde and Marie’s B&B over the weekend. From the time we arrived until we left, it was a magical experience. Every amenity was provided right down to make up remover. I could devote a small book in describing the house and it’s furnishings so rich in history. We sat under the oak tree and had a bonfire. My favorite time was sitting on the veranda watching the rain. Ms Shellie is a true southern hostess.

Very nice lodge

Reviewed By disfam15

We enjoyed out stay. Only a few blocks from the beach. Business class room was very nice and clean. Queen and sofa bed, microwave, fridge and very large bathroom. There is also a kids playground next door. Breakfast was good (waffles, sausage, bacon, boiled eggs, bagels, fruit, oatmeal, snacks) as well a very nice food attendant. Lodge is in a quiet area. Cons. Walls are VERY thin, which was super irritating. I could hear the next room holler, talk, pee, shower and TV :(

Air Force Inn Keesler AFB

Can't beat the location and price!

Reviewed By TravelLover59

We were in town for a concert at Beau Rivage. We didn't want to spend an arm and a leg to stay in Biloxi. Since my husband is retired Air Force, it was logical for us to consider Keesler AFB. You can't beat the location. The gate is literally one block from the beach and Highway 90. We were less than a 5-minute drive from Beau Rivage. To check in, you must go to Tyer House adjacent to the hospital at the end of the main road. It was still only a mile or so from the front gate. However, our lodging was at Shaw House, very close to the front gate. Lucky us (NOT), we were chosen for a random vehicle inspection. That is just one of the things you must accept to stay on a military base. You must return to Tyer House to check out of lodging, too. That was mildly inconvenient. The room was small, but well-appointed. It was all we needed for an overnight stay. The bed was comfortable. The room was clean. The electrical outlets could have been more plentiful. Next time, we'll probably take a power strip to help. The closet was huge! The room had a refrigerator and microwave, desk, and easy chair. The bathroom was small, but adequate. The BX is close by, if you need to purchase anything. This particular property, unlike Tyer House, is a bit older and it shows. The elevator is small. Some of the features, like carpet, are a bit worn. There are not amenities on every floor. We had to find ice and vending on the first floor, though we stayed on the fourth floor. Still, despite the few flaws, we will stay here every time we visit Biloxi. The many positives outweigh the few negatives. One thing to remember, you can only make reservations. 3 weeks out or less. I thought that might cause some problems in the middle of summer, but we had no issues.

Passing thru Christian Pass

Reviewed By Benskie46

Location is directly across from marina. Great views of coast and boats. Bacchus restaurant is across the street- great atmosphere and decent food. I thought I would hear the noise of the restaurant or road, but nope. Best sleep I’ve had in a while. I walked the small town and then came back up the beach. Quaint area for a relaxed trip. The room is equivalent to an apartment without a kitchen, very spacious and nicely decorated. Sitting out on the porch watching people and the boats was enjoyable. Self check in- grab your key at the desk and go. There is also an elevator- which I didn’t expect.

Good luck!!!

Reviewed By Sunshine48153816974

Good luck in getting anyone on the phone. I booked this through their Facebook page and three days into I’m still trying to get hold of someone. Finally tracked down the persons personal Facebook page and she said oh we don’t book through that site anymore. So I ask how to book with no answer. Sounds sketchy at best now. No thanks and will spread the word. Would hate to get there and need something. Doubt you’d be able to get hold of anyone.
