You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Sun+Sand=FUN at Sandy Feet Retreat, 4 BR beach home sleeps 8 in beds!
Sandy Feet Retreat is a rare 4 bedroom 2 Bath Beach Home in historic Pass Christian a block from the beach. It is simply perfect location for your group to use as a launching spot for vacation activities!
For over a century, Pass Christian has been the town where folks from New Orleans came to escape the heat of the summer. Now, a new generation has discovered the beauty, quiet life-style, and escape that is Pass Christian! Sandy Feet Retreat is a short walk to the beach on the eastern side of "The Pass", as locals refer to it.
Lovingly restored to fit the family's needs, this home was chosen to be their escape and they are sharing it with you!
It has been cleaned, painted, furnished, and new sod laid in the large yard in the Spring of 2021 and is now ready for guests.
The living room has comfortable seating and a large screen TV for streaming your most recent binge series. You can gather there and plan the day's activities or simply decide to just hang in the shady back yard or walk to the beach and spend the day being lazy on the sand beach and dipping your toes into the warm gulf waters.
The dining area is adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen where you can cook your catch of the day while seeing who can tell the biggest fish story! Or, if the fishing wasn't successful, simply purchase from the boats some fresh shrimp and have a shrimp boil. For those meals where you wish not to cook, there are a myriad of restaurants and pubs within just a few minutes drive that offer all manner of food varieties and styles.
The bedrooms are configured with a king bed in the master with its own private bath and with a flat screen TV. The remaining 3 bedrooms offer a queen bed and two bedrooms with 2 twin beds each. The second bath is located adjacent to these bedrooms.
The large rear yard is completely fenced with a privacy fence. There is a large patio where you can sit and enjoy the evening gulf breeze. The owner has provided a cover for the rear porch, so you can escape the sun or rain while still enjoying the huge, nice yard. AND, there is a new BBQ grill that has just been added.
As previously mentioned, the Coast offers a ton of activities for all ages and group sizes. The Coast consists of a 26-mile fully public beach area connecting Biloxi, Gulfport, Long Beach, and Pass Christian. The quaint towns of Ocean Springs on the east and Bay St Louis on the west are bookends for the Coast and offer many tasty restaurants, pubs, boutiques, art studios, and historic areas.
Just a few of the many things you can do is visit one of the following: a brand new Aquarium, a huge model train museum, a NASA space museum with hands-on activities, the Mardi Gras museum, The Maritime Museum, and Lynn Meadows Discovery Center-a nationally recognized children's activity center. Or, you can go golfing, boating, sailing, charter fishing, pier fishing, wade fishing, visit the Gulf Islands Water Park for a fun day of water activities, and take the Ship Island Ferry for a day trip to historic Ship Island and its wonderfully blue water and Civil War Fort. Then there are dolphin watching trips, a paddle wheel river boat excursion, Biloxi Schooner sailing trips, outlet shopping, boutique shopping, antique shopping, a myriad of artist studios, a presidential home and presidential library, beautiful historic homes along the beachfront, and 26 miles of almost uninterrupted sand beach with views all the way to the horizon. The beach is public, has free access for the 26 miles, and has an unlimited view of the gulf as very limited building is allowed on the beach side so that everyone can enjoy the view. This protection of the view is unlike anything along the beaches on the Gulf and the Atlantic seaboard. It is one reason that the Mississippi Gulf Coast is so special.
Sandy Feet Retreat is the perfect location for your vacation where you can relax or enjoy all the Coast has to offer. Make this your sand beach getaway and see why Sandy Feet Retreat is the place for you!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

House smells like mold and mildew, Don’t Stay Here!!! Complete health risk
Checked in, immediately smelled mold and mildew, exterior of the house has green mildew all over it and interior has black mold growing inside. Contacted the The host via the number I was supplied, but they’re not available after 5 o’clock, so I left them a message and texted and let them know. We cannot stay there because the awful smell and went and checked into a hotel asked to cancel my reservation. They refused to refund we did not stay there one night and they charged me full price no refund I have pictures to prove And VRBO did nothing to help spent hours on the phone with thier call center and was a complete waste of time…

Wouldn't stay at sandy feet retreat a second time
The property was OK, but would not stay at same house again. The showers were not clean. Hair and dirt had to be rinsed down before using them. The bath mats were dirty and needed to be washed. There were cobwebs throughout the house. Other than that, the house was decently clean. Our main complaint was that the house was hot. The air conditioner was not strong enough to actually cool the house. That part was miserable because we were out in the heat during the day and really wanted to come back to a cool house to relax and sleep. We reported the air conditioning problem and were told that they'd had trouble with the air conditioning in the past. The unit needs to replaced6 with a

This property is spacious, nicely decorated, clean and comfortable, with a great backyard. It is located in a quiet neighborhood and is only a half block from the beautiful white sand beach. We definitely recommend this as a great place to spend a vacation.

Quiet and Quaint
We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was well stocked with kitchen supplies and towels. There were also some essentials like hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, dish soap, trash bags, etc. it is in a convenient location to a store and the beach/highway.
I did find hair in my shower, so I cleaned behind the cleaning service. There were a few cobwebs as well. That is a bummer given you are charged a cleaning fee with booking.
The A/C was also not functioning. Fortunately the weather was cool and this was not a problem. The ceiling fans also helped. I called the “non-emergency line” but we didn’t not hear back from them. I did not try to call the emergency line.
Hopefully the property managers will correct the issue and your stay will be even better.

Pros & Cons
Con: When we arrived at 3pm, the temperature in the home was 80°, the thermostat was set at 74. It literally took the rest of the evening & all of the next day to get the home to drop in temp. We set the thermostat to 69° & Within a 24 hour time period the temp had only dropped down to 78° at the lowest. Thankfully we brought fans.
Pros: The home was very clean, well stocked with just about everything you could possibly need, & beds were so comfy, also less than a minute from the beach & Walmart.

suggestions. You need fly swatters. full size mirrors in bedrooms. Extra toilet paper
We really enjoyed our stay. I would say that it is more than a block from the beach.
Closet door fell off glides, first time opening it.

Great place to stay! We were 15 min away from Biloxi which was perfect so you’re not dealing with the massive traffic and crowds of the casinos. House was perfect for us as we had 4 adults and 4 kids with us. Endless hot water. Comfortable beds. Tons of towels as well. Full size washer and dryer. Back patio is concrete and has a hose so it was perfect was hosing off the sand. The beach is right down the road it’s off of but may be a bit far to walk if you have littles as you have to cross a 4 lane road. The beach was beautiful and clean as well. Shaggys was a great place to eat and Walmart was a minute away.

We spent Thanksgiving at this property and enjoyed the beach-inspired interiors, top-of-the-line appliances, and short stroll to the beach. The large backyard was perfect for outdoor dining and playing outside.

Family Fun at the Rodeo
The renting process was fast and easy. Beautiful, clean home. Lovely decor, spacious. Plenty of space for a family of 8. Lovely backyard and patio furniture. Great location. Very short drive or walk to the beach. Nancy is a gracious host who communicates well with her guests. She made sure my family and I were comfortable. We will definitely rent again. Highly recommend.

Consider this before booking.
The house was what we expected. It was a newly renovated house in a friendly neighborhood. It looks exactly like the pictures, but there's way more trouble than you would think.
The air conditioning barely worked.
The lawn was not cut when we arrived.
The backyard is infested with flies.
The kitchen sink does not drain at all!
The couch had stains all over it.
The hose in the backyard was always leaking water.
Besides all the problems listed above, it is a nice place to get away for a couple of days.
