About this property

Come On Down To Where The Winter is Balmy and the Living Is Easy …

Plan an escape to the Gulf and stay in this mid-century modern vacation rental in Biloxi. Set mere blocks from this historical harbor town, this superb unit sits within a private compound and is all about comfort. It includes premium linens for the comfortable king bed, a unique bathroom with shower, a kitchen full of cookware, good cuttery, and dishware.
Spacious , tastefully appointed living and dining areas and a wide, three sided balcony with Gulf views, vivid sunsets, sea breezes complete with a porch bed for afternoon naps. Everything you need and more than expected.
When you're not relaxing on the sugar-white sand beach watching the shrimp boats go by, you can let your taste buds explore our world famous restaurants that feature "bait to plate" seafood, a little New Orleans with a little Southern fare. We have interesting, unique shops, 6 casinos, within walking distance and others just blocks away. Great museums, and many eco trips for the nature lovers.
Your host are available to answer questions, make suggestions and tell you about this diverse, historical town. This is located within a private, gated, compound, quiet and private, though right in the middle or very close to everything. No one under the age of 18 and the renter must be at least 25. We do ask for verification of this.

Magical getaway

My husband and I got married in New Orleans and stayed at Carol's property for a short honeymoon getaway by the beach. Carol was so welcoming and friendly! The apartment was perfect! It had everything you could think of to make any stay enjoyable. My husband and I both loved the vintage feel and the the bed was so comfortable! Wish we could have stayed much longer! Thank you Carol! We would love to come back some time!

Awesome Getaway place

This place was perfect for me and my wife on her Birthday outing and our first trip to Biloxi. We walked to the beach that was about a block away (Perfect) and then got breakfast at Waffle house (next street over, Perfect) plus the scenery was amazing. Our host Mrs. Carol made sure everything was good for us and was very helpful. We will definitely come back to this place when we venture back to Biloxi. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you¡!!

This is the cutest little place with such a cool vibe! Carol is the most accommodating host and we look forward to visiting again! Close to casinos and food where an Uber ride is quick and cheap but also away from the action so it’s nice and quiet.

About the host

Hosted by Carol Vaughn

Host profile image
I have put hard work and love in designing, furnishing and preparing this vacation rental though this is my second. I bought this property in 2016 and have worked on it until our opening on September, 2017. At one time, we understand, this apartment was occupied by the valet (driver) for the couple that owned the property for many years before me. The driver's job was to take them to New Orleans every weekend so they could enjoy the cultural events, have martini's and then be driven back. I instantly envisioned this space as a vacation rental. When the doors are all left open and the sea breeze flows through, you'll feel as though you're staying on a boat minus the rocking!

Why they chose this property

This space is airy, lots of natural light, surrounded by greenery and sea breezes. The location could not be more perfect if you want convenience, a very cool sixties decor with an amazingly comfortable bed and linens. This space is over a three car garage, used for storage at this time. The building is within a gated, private compound though the neighborhood is quiet and safe!

What makes this property unique

The balcony surrounds the apartment on three sides and are covered in fabric awning for your comfort. The ceilings are tall and the floors are unique. There’s a very cool “ vibe”! But, best of all is the location. Perfect!
