Great Home in Amazing Location
We just finished our stay at Palm View, and it was wonderful! Debra was amazing with communication, and her home is the perfect beach getaway. Located close to great food and a short walk to the ocean. The view from the porch is so relaxing and the kids loved running around the downstairs space. Highly recommend!

Fabulous Visit
We absolutely enjoyed our stay here! The house was very nice and just a short ways away from the beach. Great food places around and the trip to “Ships Island” was a definite must do! Debra was great with communicating with us about our stay there and we won’t think twice about staying here in the future! Thank you for a very peaceful and enjoyable “fall break”!! We will see you again in the future!

Wow!! You’re going to love Palm View!!!
Palm View is beautifully renovated and felt like our home away from home. Plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. Morning coffee on the porch with the view of the Gulf was a perfect way to start our day! We loved that we could walk to the beach whenever we wanted to without needing to drive there. Palm View is centrally located to the casinos, restaurants and attractions in the area. At the end of our days of exploring, it felt great walking into a beautiful place to hangout and relax.

Vacation Getaway
Where to start. Communication with Debra was always timely. She was also accommodating with all our requests. I think if Debra could resonably do it, she would have clothes in the closets to fit each guest, since she had everything else you could think of for a guest's convenience! Close to the beach and close to downtown Gulfport. Quiet neighborhood. This is definitley my go to spot in Gulfport when I bring my dog!! Thanks for a great stay!

Lovely location, fantastic porch!
The location & layout of this house was perfect: it is pleasantly situated outside of the hustle & bustle, and feels safe, is so quiet, and has easy, direct access to the main roads… A nice view of the Gulf… Short distance to the casinos & fantastic restaurants! Such a truly great spot! Also great for families that travel with their dogs: the yard is spacious & fenced, safe & secure. The owner, Debra, is very friendly & approachable. After all was said & done, I can honestly say I feel like not only did we have a nice stay, but we also made a friend in Debra, for the long haul. That’s a rarity & a true gem, in this world, and sets her miles ahead of the rest. 5 stars!

Weather Horrible, House and Property Manager Wonderful
To start I know there is nothing that can be done on the weather, but the property is everything advertised. It was spotless, the outdoor area was great and everything was provided that if the wind wasn't blowing 40 knots most of the time we would have really enjoyed. Neighborhood does not look great at first glance but the neighbors are very nice and the beach is a block and a half away. Easy walking distance to the Island View Casino. The house is very secure and we will be back.
