Pet Friendly! Beach View! Steps to the Beach & Old Town Bay St. Louis

Escape to Bayside Bungalow, your idyllic beach retreat nestled just steps away from the sandy shores and the historic charm of Old Town Bay St. Louis. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of this newly renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow, boasting 600 square feet of contemporary design, inviting furnishings, and breathtaking beach views.

Please note, there is no oven due to limited space. Essential cooking utensils, dinnerware, wine glasses, coffee mugs, a Keurig coffee maker, a frying pan, and mixing bowls are provided.

The guest bedroom features a cozy queen-size bed and an armoire for convenient clothing storage. The adjoining guest bathroom boasts a walk-in shower, an LED mirror, and built-in shelving for towel storage.

Step outside to the screened-in deck furnished with comfortable outdoor couches and a dining table. Rinse off under the outdoor shower at the back of the home after a day at the beach.

Bayside Bungalow in BSL
My husband & I enjoyed our stay at the Bayside Bungalow in Bay St. Louis. The weather was a little cool in December to fully take advantage of the spacious screened-in porch and the outdoor sitting area around the fire pit. The house has offers a beautiful leather sectional with plenty of blankets to curl up & watch a movie. The house is quipped with a modern farmhouse sink in the kitchen with updated appliances. The bathroom offers a backlit mirror with a fog-less option and updated shower. The bedroom is big enough to get around the bed with two night side tables and chest of drawers to store your belongings. We enjoyed trying several local restaurants and bars, along the with Silver Slipper Casino over in Waveland. We hope to stay at the Bayside Bungalow again on a return visit to Bay St. Louis. J.A.

Great Beach getaway
Great place to stay. Location to beach and Gulf view from screened porch was great. Walking distance to restaurants etc. Bungalow was very cute and nice and well decorated. The bed was comfortable but the linens could be better and fit the bed. The fitted sheet constantly had to be put back on. The bathroom faucet is cute but not practical at all. The stove was inoperable and should be replaced if it's so difficult that it needs instructions it's just stupid to put in a rental property. There was no grill but it was mentioned in the amenities as was a spa/hot tub. Summers on the Gulf are very hot and the air conditioner was not adequate it rarely kept temperature and had to be cut down at night in order to keep a decent temperature during the day. The place is small so there must be a problem with it. We did enjoy our stay but when you stay a week these things became annoying. The fact that we had to eat out for every meal was not ideal either.

Great home, great location.
Beautiful home, well stocked with everything you need. The screen porch was the best part. Large, water view, gulf breeze, and no bugs. Vacant lots on either side and behind make it feel less crowded and a bit quieter. The only thing this place needs is instructions on how to operate the complicated thermostat, the unique touch panel 2-burner glass cooktop, and how to work your way through the TV setup to actually access something. Every time I turned it on, it seemed to start somewhere different. Otherwise, I would stay there again.

Perfect little house for two. Nice outdoor spaces with view of the Gulf. Walking distance to town and restaurants! A few helpful tips for owner/management: put lamps on bedside tables; add a 2 qt. pot to the only fry pan in kitchen; replace faucet in bathroom… spray too strong for size of sink. Otherwise, excellent stay and very responsive management.

Hot
House was what we expected. Being a small house, it was well designed to utilize every available space. The screen porch was the best part. The only negative was when we set the AC, someone or something kept increasing the temperature. Not sure what that was about. In August it’s hot and to increase to 75 was not good. My husband has breathing issues so he likes it cool so he can breathe. Being on 70 to 72 it’s not so bad. I have an app on my phone to adjust my settings at home, so I’m wondering if the home owners has that too. And kept raising it up. Not sure but the amount of money we paid for 3 days should have covered the cost of AC

Amazing space for a (small) family holiday
For my birthday this year, I wanted to go to the beach in a quieter vacation spot, and my son, daughter, and 4-year-old grandson joined me. Kristin, the manager, touched base with me after reservation to make sure we knew sleeping was somewhat limited, so that was a good touch on management's part. The house is as advertised: small, lovely, and easy beach access. The bed was extremely comfortable (some of the softest pillows and sheets I've experience while traveling), and son and grandson said the couch was comfy as well. We all loved being able to eat out on the screened porch and get just a bit more beach in from the view (I think my grandson would have slept out there if we'd let him). There were plenty of towels (regular and beach towels) and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes. There was sufficient soap, trash bags, dish pods, and laundry pods Honestly, the only thing missing from the advertisement was that there were no toiletries, but we all had our own, so we didn't miss out there. We stayed for two nights, and the house will definitely go on my favorites list for a future mother-and-daughter trip back to the area. Bay St Louis is a pretty little town, very quiet and everyone we encountered was as nice as can be. The beach is extremely shallow for a considerable distance, which was perfect for my grandson to enjoy. We managed to squeeze in a trip to the Audubon Aquarium in New Orleans since it was so close by. All in all, a great weekend at the beach.

Not perfect, but close to it!
The cottage was adorable & just right for 2 adults. The location/proximity to the beach & water is even better than the pictures represent, and the screened porch is amazing. I would absolutely make this my regular spot in BSL! That said, there are a few things potential renters should be aware of - to start, there is not 1 single closet in the cottage. There is a piece of furniture in the bedroom which has a handful of drawers & a side with a hanging bar that I guess is intended to take the place of a closet, but it is too short & too shallow to be useful. The drawers do not stay on the tracks at all, so they’re not useful, either. I travel regularly for work & basically live out of a suitcase, so it didn’t bother me, but If you can’t enjoy vacation without unpacking, this will be an issue for you. This coupled with how small the cottage is…I’m not sure it would be comfortable for more than 2 adults & 2 small kids. It was good for 2 adults and would be perfect for 1 couple w/or w/out a baby or toddler, but definitely not for 2 couples. Also, the description indicates the couch becomes a queen size “bed” with the ottoman…I’m not positive it’s as big as a queen - seemed more like a long double - and I definitely wouldn’t describe it as a bed. However, I didn’t find it uncomfortable to sleep on, and it would be just fine for a couple of kids or an adult who can sleep most anywhere. Finally, no toiletries & no trolley that we saw. Again, just FYI, all were non-issues for us!

Sweet little Bungalow
We loved that the home was less than a block away from the beach and a very short golf cart ride to restaurants and shopping. The house includes a wonderful screen-in area to read and enjoy our morning coffee. A special thanks to Kristin, the property manager, she was easy to contact and was able to meet all of our additional needs. Which is always a big plus. All and all the fit was great for our 3 day weekend. We will be back.
