Great stay
A great experience! The cottage was a right fit. Suggest maybe an explanation on entry process, I.e. opening the key box . Suggest on coffee table place a notebook binder showing : how to contact host, instruction of tv and internet. Places to go. Will help new folks to area. 👍 Highly recommend this place.👍

Location was perfect!
My husband and I stayed at Mina's property for a week and loved it! Everything was tidy and the property was accessible to everything we wanted or needed! There would be plenty of space for a small family. The only thing is the TV does not come with very many channels so if you happen to get stuck in the house, make sure you bring games or a small DVD player for movies.

Cute house
Redone older home. Charming. Drawback-train two blocks away that blows its whistle as it goes by, day or night. Luckily, I believe there is only one train late at night and one EARLY in the morning. The others don’t matter, even though you can feel the house vibrating-interesting experience that. It is only a 4 minute walk to the beach on which you can walk for miles if you want. Great restaurants for lunch and dinner, not much for breakfast. Lots of local art and museums to see. Casinos abound, if you are into that. Ocean Springs is a must see!

Disappointed
The neighborhood was trashy looking and the porch needed to be cleaned. Very little to do unless you wanted to gamble at the casinos. The inside was nice and clean.

Lil Cottage
Mina’s lil cottage is lovely on the inside with restful colored decor. We enjoyed the back porch and birds in nearby trees for our morning coffee. It is a short or drive to the beach. Mina has beach chairs and camp chairs for your use. There is noise from trains, planes and traffic but the little street the house is on has very little traffic. There is a nice walk a few blocks away to enjoy on good paths. The cottage is located near grocery stores, shops and restaurants.

3rd visit for me
I’ve made a tradition of staying at this same wonderful little home away from home at the same time every year. The home is clean and stocked with everything I need to be comfortable. I love walking the neighborhood with my dog and it’s just a short stroll to the beach. There’s a close grocery store and restaurants surrounding. I love enjoying the swing on the large front porch and the neighbors are friendly. Mina is a wonderful host and I recommend coming for a visit to soothe your soul. (Just not my week) 😁

Short walk to the beach. Near several great restaurants. Owner personally met and greeted us.
Recently remodeled and refurbished 1940’s style beach bungalow. Spacious kitchen with generous counter space. Open floor plan. Two nicely appointed bedrooms with a shared bath. Great private WiFi and cable. Laminate floors or tile throughout. Awesome covered porch with swing, great reminder of simpler days. Parking for two vehicles. Kitchen view of the beach. Plan to go back again next winter.

Perfect
Our week started with 100% chance of rain for the first three days, normally would have been a bummer..... HOWEVER, this cottage was perfect for a few rainy days of relaxation! We sat on the front porch, was able to get out in between storms. The weather turned great later in the week...again, the cottage was perfect to "come home" to after a day at New Orleans or Ship Island. We will definitely be back. Thanks again from making your home, ours for the week Jimmy, Carla & Emma

Awesome!
Just as advertised-clean, nicely decorated, close to the beach. This was a great place to rest our weary heads after hanging at the beach. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed swaying on the porch swing in the mornings. The kitchen was nice and had everything we needed. The house layout was convenient with the bathroom and laundry facilities in a small hallway between the bedrooms. We appreciated the extra towels and washcloths in the bathroom. The beach chairs were handy to have so that we didn’t have but our own. Check-in was easy and wi-fi worked great. They mowed the yard while we were there but were kind enough to wait until mid-morning in case we were sleeping in. We would definitely stay here again.

A wonderful place to stay!
Mina's cottage was so lovely. It was clean, spacious, and felt very comfortable. She is very thoughtful in her details, considering everything you may need. From beach chairs to boogie boards and sand buckets. She has you covered! The neighbors are so friendly and welcoming. I loved being able to see the ocean view from the kitchen window , yet being far enough away to avoid hearing all the traffic. I loved my morning and evening walks to the beach with my best furry friend. I will be back to stay. It was just good for my soul. Thank you, Mina

Overall good
At 74 and 83 yrs we found the streaming tv frustrating and lacking in local programming. Yes, we spent time on the beach, in the casinos and eating in local restaurants but remained interested in local news on our off time. Went to the Jones Park Christmas light event, the Mississippi Aquarium and Model Railroad Museum all of which were delightful! The king bed was too firm for our liking, and a few amenities could have been included ( i.e. Salt, pepper, minimal), sugar and kleenex. The view of and accessibility of the beach was as described and enjoyable and we were able to enjoy walks to and fro with our see 4 legged friend!

Great cottage and location in Gulfport
This is a great 2 bedroom 1 bath cottage located off Courthouse Rd in Gulfport. The cottage has been renovated with updated appliances and furniture and soothing grey and blue colors. The cottage is spacious enough with an open floor plan in the living room and kitchen and 2 spacious bedrooms. It is located across the beach with about a 5 minute walk to the beach, pier and boat launch. The neighborhood was very quiet with no disturbances. The owners are very attentive and responsive. The first day we were there the internet and the TV in the living room were not working. The owners responded right away and brought in a brand new TV and the internet was fixed by the next day. I would highly recommend this cottage and will rent again in the future.

Great outdoors and indoors!
We had a great vacation time staying it this immaculate well-appointed place. What a gem it is! A couple of short blocks to a long stretch of pristine groomed beaches and a boat launch, a short car drive to exciting Biloxi or Gulfport attractions and restaurants. With our dog, we had explored several hiking trails and dog friendly beaches of neighboring Hancock and Jackson counties. This property lies in Harrison county where dogs are officially not allowed on beaches, even though we saw some. At Solemar, we enjoyed relaxing at night watching movies and having a breakfast on the back porch watching the Gulf and new home construction in progress. With a railroad and a runway being nearby, be prepared for some train and airplane noise which is mostly infrequent and unobtrusive, and easy to get accustomed to. The neighborhood is safe and quiet, the house and beds very comfortable and the host extremely accommodating. We had everything we needed for a perfect early March vacation, including the weather, although a blender availability would be nice. Consider yourselves lucky being able to stay at the beautiful Solemar. We will surely return at our earliest opportunity.

Phenomenal Home & Beach is right behind you
Mina’s, home is so beautifully decorated it is amazing what’s hiding behind the front door. The community is outstanding super pet friendly, walk friendly, bicycle friendly, talk to the locals walking the community they will tell you stories of Katrina. We loved the neighborhood we felt like we were back in old Metairie La. We are born and raised from New Orleans relocated to NC 20 years ago. We came for Mardi Gras. We chose to stay in Gulfport so we could have the best of both worlds the beach and Nola only a short drive down I-10E. There are lots of places all around you a Mall, shopping, food, casinos, etc. We especially loved morning sunrises with coffee and seeing the beach everyday and night was so so nice! The owner is more than attentive to your every need, she is fantastic. We ate at the restaurant down the street from the house DON’T waste your money! It was frozen seafood and small portions for the price it’s nothing like the reviews again we are born and raised in NO we know good seafood !! We went to the casino that is 7 minutes west of the home they have two casinos you choose smoke free or smoking. If you go to the players club counter you’ll get a players card, you get $15 free play and $15 food credit your buffet is 1/2 off. We walked out of the casino after 15 mins on slots with $165 we came we saw, we ate, we won! bye now LOL. Go to the casinos they are gorgeous. We will forever stay at Minas home ....unless we are already moved there by this time next year. I love my home NOLA, but what I really loved was how safe we were in Gulfport! No car break-in fears, no worries etc N.O. is very dangerous. Save your money for experiences and stay just outside N.O.
