Neighborhood

Experience the serenity of Pass Christian's stunning beaches and majestic oak tree-lined shores. Affectionately known as "The Pass," this tranquil community cherishes simplicity and a carefree lifestyle. Immerse yourself in the local coastal vibe by exploring unique shops, friendly restaurants, and unspoiled beaches, or venture a bit further to Historic Bay St. Louis or the lively casinos of Gulfport & Biloxi. Nestled in the heart of Downtown Pass Christian, our property is part of a charming Cottage community, surrounding a picturesque courtyard. Each Cottage contributes to the warm, welcoming atmosphere that defines our community, making it a tranquil haven for guests seeking rest and relaxation. At The Pelican's Nest, you'll be a stone's throw away from the charm of Pass Christian's downtown area. Take a brief 5-minute walk to the beach or explore an array of unique shops and delightful restaurants. With a different restaurant within walking distance every night, your culinary options are vast. For a change of scenery, consider a day trip to the nearby towns of Bay St. Louis, Long Beach, Gulfport, Biloxi, and Ocean Springs.

Guest Access

You’ll have the entire cottage to yourself. Entry is secure—codes are changed between each guest for your safety. While the home is fully independent, it shares exterior stairs with the neighboring cottage. The peaceful neighborhood atmosphere makes this a great place to slow down and settle in.

Such a cute airbnb! we absolutely LOVED our stay! The cottage was so cute and comfortable and everything was walkable. We were blown away with how friendly the locals were and how cute the town was. The host, Caroline, was the best host we have ever had! Super responsive and gave great recommendations that were tailored to our mother and daughter trip. would come back again!

This was our (me and my husband) first time in Pass Christian and this place was amazing. She has an adorable welcome packet (both online and in a physical copy) to give you recommendations, notes about where things are, and general advice. Super helpful. The area itself is super duper walkable. Personally, we loved walking to downtown Pass Christian, the library, and just all the beautiful beachfront homes. It’s a truly beautiful spot. The home had laundry available with pods on hand. No dishwasher, but had soap with sponges. So many bath towels so I didn’t have to constantly be doing laundry. In general, truly spotless. Mattress sinks at the head of the bed, so we doubled on pillows. Loved this! Favs: Shaggy’s restaurant (best with a pet), all the marinas, Biloxi Shrimping Trip, Cat Coffeehouse & Book Shop, kiteboarding (with Cameron from Bending Pines Water Sports!), danish from Beau Rivage Roasted Bean, Roberts Place Cafe Not for us: Escape This Biloxi (and we LOVE escape ro
