About the host
Hosted by Beth and Tony
Tony and I have been in the hospitality industry for years, working in restaurants, owning restaurants, and now vacation rental properties. We have been living in our 1930s “starter“ home here on the coast for over 30 years now and have enjoyed the renovation projects we’ve done. We also enjoy boating on our 1929 (yes 1929) Red Bank docked nearby at the beautiful Gulfport Harbor in Jones Park and there’s hardly a trip we take without a pod of dolphins accompanying our journey. So come and stay and play at the Seahorse cottage and safe and happy travels to you and your family.
Why they chose this property
This is a neighborhood with history. Many of the homes here have Survived hurricane Katrina and were built back in the 30s, ours included. The Seahorse cottage is close to 100 years old. Established oak trees, crape myrtles, and coastal palms punctuate the sidewalks. This is a great walking neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
Multiple living areas, comfortable beds, quality linens, and a chef’s kitchen are just among a few things that make me want to live in this house myself.
