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.

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.

Our stay at The Pelican Inn in Pass Christian was exactly as pictured—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed to feel right at home. The bed was easily the most comfortable part of the trip, making it hard to get up each morning. I absolutely loved the style of the space and even took several pictures for inspiration to bring back and incorporate into my own art deco décor. The neighborhood was incredibly quiet and felt very safe, and the neighbors we met were genuinely friendly. I was pleasantly surprised while walking around to find stunning homes with beautiful architecture—it's easy to see why the area is often referred to as the “Newport of the South.” The beach was peaceful and nearly empty, which made it perfect for relaxing. We laid out our towels and enjoyed the sun without any crowds. The sand was also unique—unlike the sticky sand I’m used to in New Jersey or the OBX, it had a smooth, almost oil-like texture that left my skin feeling soft and moisturized rather than dry. Caroline truly has created a wonderful little home away from home in a beautiful location. If my husband and I are ever back in the Mississippi area, we would absolutely love to be her guests again. I also have several friends back home who will definitely be hearing about this place. Overall, it was a relaxing and memorable stay, and I would absolutely return.
