Friendly meetup

This was a short meet-up with a friend from Texas. Pass Christian was a convenient mid-way meeting point. February is a really nice, relaxed time to be there. We loved the well-appointed kitchen, the comfortable open plan of the kitchen/living room area, and the privacy of the two bedrooms. A perfect place for hanging out, and then walking along the beach or Scenic Drive.

Dreamy coastal getaway!

Our 3-night stay at pelican’s nest was amazing. The cottage was very neat, clean and cozy. The property was easy to access with plenty nearby restaurants and shops. It was also a walkable distance from the beach. Caroline was such a great host! We truly enjoyed our visit.

Cute coastal home

My husband and I decided to take a long weekend trip to visit our son who is in tech school at Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi. Through a good friend, I was referred to stay in Pass Christian while there. I can’t wait to return! It is such a cute area and this home was central to everything that we did! Caroline was awesome in her communication and the house was clean and immaculate and had everything that we needed. We will definitely, stay here again the next time we come to visit! 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was Perfect

Everything was perfect. The beds where super comfy and so was the couch. The kitchen was super nice. We did bring a folding table to use instead of the coffee table but thats because we needed a bigger game table. It was definitely the right place to hangout with my friends. Perfect amount of space. Will keep this in mknd for furture trips.

Lovely getaway!

Book this cottage and get away from at all! Such a quaint lovely place. You feel like you’re living your Pinterest dreams in this cottage! Caroline has thought of everything from coozies and coffee to detergent pods and shampoo! Such a great hostess with great communication skills and obviously a very considerate, accommodating property manger! Can’t wait to go back and stay longer!

Very clean and cute!!

Hesitating to write this review. Want to keep it a secret! Perfect distance to beach. Quiet neighborhood. Very clean cottage. Have never cooked in VRBO. Always find things that gross me out. We cooked here! Also very clean. Under beds and sofa was swept. All well kept!
