Our stay was so relaxing. Everything we needed was there and it was only a few minutes' walk to the beach. We enjoyed a quiet night by the fire and relaxed on the back patio with the lights listening to music. It was a perfect spot for a getaway. We brought our dog and the fenced in back yard was perfect for him. Everything was very clean and so comfortable! We definitely plan to stay here again! If you want a cozy quiet place to stay this is it!
We had an amazing trip! This is our fourth time staying at this property and, as always, it was clean and welcoming! I will always recommend The Sea Turtle Cottage!
Checking in was a breeze with excellent communication from our hosts. The home was clean and comfortable with historic charm and modern updates. My 2 year old had no issues making himself right at home. We enjoyed the beach that was a short walk away. The neighborhood was quiet and safe.
We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for us and our 2 grandchildren. Close to the beach, Jones Park for fishing and splash pad. Easy drive to New Orleans. We will definitely stay here again if we return to Mississippi.
Comfortable home close to the beaches. Host provided beach chairs and accessories. The back patio and fenced in back yard was a wonderful space for us to relax with our Golden retriever.
The place was beautiful and quite and close to the beach.
It was beautiful I loved the place and I would stay again when I make it that way again. Thank you for allowing me and the family to stay u have a very beautiful place.
We had a blast on our vacation. The house is super cute with everything you need. We enjoyed the cleanliness of the place, and communication with Carolyn was easy.
We spent a very cozy week at the cottage over Christmas. Well equipped and furnished; nicely decorated for Christmas. Very dog friendly-Carolyn even left some toys for the pups! We had everything we needed and then some. Will definitely come back and stay again.
I came to work remote and be close to the Gulf. This cottage was perfect! Less rhan 5 minute walk to beach. Close to fun restaurants. Neighborhood was quiet. I felt very at home! I was able to bring my cat, Benny, and he enjoyed his stay as well! I would definitely stay here again!
Where to begin...the house is just as described but better. All the comforts of home away from home. Highly recommend. Even our dogs enjoyed it. The house is close to everything you need.
As always, we had a wonderful stay at the Sea Turtle Cottage. This was our third stay at this property. Ms. Carolyn is a wonderful host and the property is always extremely clean and well kept. We will definitely be back!
This house has so much personality and everything you will need for your stay. The neighborhood is quiet and only a 5-10 minute walk to the beach. Very clean and perfect for a getaway with your pups. 😎

Beautiful property. The VRBO host was incredibly gracious and accommodating. I needed a last minute late checkout and she kindly allowed. The property itself was just gorgeous.
The property was well-located, easy to find, scrupulously clean and very well-equipped. We would absolutely stay here again if we should ever come back to Gulfport. The host was fantastic about communication and gave some excellence advice on places to eat, as well. Very highly recommended!
Owner has thought of everything in this home! Everything you need, plus nice extra touches! Our dogs loved the fenced in back yard. Awesome location to everything in Gulfport. Would love to stay again!
We stayed a few days for our honeymoon, upon arrival we were greeted with a card and a bottle of sparkling wine. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The host was great at communicating. We would definitely book again.
I have stayed before everything that we needed except food. Close to Walmart and restaurants. Our favorite was Patio 44 in Gulfport. So much to see from Bay St Louis to Ocean Springs.
This was perfect for my husband and I. We had 2 of our dogs with us and it worked out perfectly. While staying there the 2 of us also realized how nice it would work for a small family or 2 couples. Very clean, quiet and close to all the fun activities in the area. We had such a great time.
This cute little cottage was so wonderful! Carolyn truly thought of everything, from coffee and tea, right down to beach chairs and towels! The house was so clean and the back porch with the lights was so peaceful to sit out on at night! Our stay was fantastic and we will definitely be booking again next year!!
