About this property

Walk to the Beach and Downtown Restaurants, Bars, and Shops!

The Space:

The Benton Beachside is YOUR new home-away-from home. Sunny, comfortable and spacious, this home has everything your group is looking for during your stay including a new oven and fridge in the kitchen as well as a new grill and patio furniture. All beds in the 4 bedrooms are very comfortable.

The Neighborhood:

Located in quaint historic downtown Ocean Springs, The Benton Beachside is steps from the beach and Gulf of Mexico. A short 15-minute stroll through picturesque streets lined with mossy oak trees will take you to the heart of downtown where many restaurants, bars, and shops are located, among other things waiting to be discovered. (Don't miss the Farmer's Market at the Depot on the weekends!) For the more adventurous, located next to the house is the entrance to the 1.7-mile walking path across the Biloxi-Ocean Springs Bridge - ideal for anyone hoping to get in some exercise while on vacation or for catching a glimpse of the stunning sunrise or sunset over the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Or - enjoy a morning walk on the 1-mile boardwalk along the beach which starts at the Yacht Club and ends at the Harbor where you can buy fresh shrimp right off of the boat! On the other side of the bridge are casinos and all of the nightlife that Biloxi has to offer.

Check out my guidebook for recommendations on things to do in the area!

- Downtown Shops & Restaurants less than 15 minute walk

Great family spot

Plenty of space for hanging together or separate, like when the kids just wanna watch YouTube Minecraft videos, and the parents wanna be close enough to keep an eye, but far enough to have a sane conversation. We all look forward to coming back.

Wonderful weekend getaway

My family from Mississippi and Alabama gathered together for a wonderful weekend in Ocean Springs. We loved the house and the location. The house is close to downtown and the beach. The thoughtful touches at the house (king cake, toiletries in the bathroom, binder and information about the area) were great and we hope to stay here again.

Great place and close to the beach!

This is our second time staying here and will be our first choice to book every time we come back. We race our catamaran at the Ocean Springs Yacht Club 2 min down the street 2 times a year. This home is so close, plenty of room for everyone, clean and the hosts do the small things to make us feel very welcome here. You will not regret booking here. Very convenient location to downtown for dinner and the beach. Greg

Amazing place. All the little things

This is our 3rd stay here. The host has been amazing. House is perfect. Spacious, 4 bedrooms, clean. But sometimes it’s the little things, bathrooms well stocked with towels, soap, shampoo, extra toilet paper, kitchen stocked with delicious homemade bread, bottles of water, extra trash age, laundry soap, literally everything to make it feel like home. I’ll book this house every time I come back to Ocean Springs!Greg

Spacious house great for family with kids

Our 6yo daughter lives the kids bedroom and the swing in the backyard. She was also a big fan of the hanging papasan chair in the den/TV room. The house was adorably decorated for the holidays and we enjoyed to local restaurant recommendations provided by the hosts and the complimentary snacks for our little one. Overall it was a great place.
