The Roost Ocean Springs

This is a charming little boutique hotel. The property is just gorgeous and although there are little creeks when walking on the hardwood floors, it really is a joy to be in such a quaint little hotel. The outside grounds are so inviting and comfortable. There's little nooks and crannies you can indulge yourself in. I literally sat by the heated pool, looked up at the beautiful trees and felt like I was in heaven. Minutes away from downtown Ocean Springs MS.and the best restaurants and bars, this location can't be beat. It is also just a short drive to the ******s in Biloxi & a short walk to the Gulf Coast beach. Looking to escape from the hustle & bustle of the everyday life that can clutter your mind? Choose this hotel & relax your mind, spirit and body. I want to personally thank the entire staff including owner Joe, and Cheryl at the front desk. You guys rock. My wife & I truly enjoyed our short stay and would love to come back for a longer visit someday.

Excellent experience at The Roost. Lovely reception at check in and informative escort around the property. Perfect location. We stayed in the "older" part and it was still excellent. A glass of "welcome" beverage was much appreciated upon arrival. Would definitely go back.

The ambience is great, the staff welcoming, the decor refreshing, the bedding comfortable, the shower amazing. Very well maintained and beautiful. Nice pool area and grounds. Good areas to meet with family. Check in was good. Liked that we could walk to the beach or downtown.

I stayed downstairs in a suite very roomy nicely appointed. We have stayed the many times and it never disappoints . It is within walking distance to downtown. The Wilbur Bar is alway fun and the staff is very nice ,Don’t miss it , better book early , they book up early certain times of the year. We always look forward to the next visit

My friend and I stayed here for a fun over-nighter in Ocean Springs. But, the room was no fun. A suite is a room with more space and furniture than a standard room, with only beds. Suites include a living/sitting area, typically with a comfortable upholstered chair or sofa, and a writing desk or small work/dining table. The Sandpiper has two (okay, they were comfortable) beds, two small, uncomfortable studio chairs (not really for sitting), a painted bamboo nightstand, and a TV. The shower was beautiful, but the door would not completely shut. Kitchenette ? Hardly. It’s an alcove with an empty mini fridge, a coffee maker., and a packet of coffee. The sink is in the bathroom, and the microwave sits on the sticky floor of the bedroom closet. Private patio ? No. There is a landing/stoop, with two small chairs you’d never sit in, because the (not weatherproof, vintage cushions) are literally covered in visible mold. Which brings me to the most unfortunate experience of our stay in the Sandpiper “suite”. Mold. Mildew. The stench was overwhelming as soon as we opened the door. Mold colonies were visible on the air conditioning registers. The entire room felt clammy. Our eyes burned, and we both wheezed and coughed throughout the entire night. By sunrise, we had terrible headaches that wasted our plans for the day. No exaggeration. We left as soon as the office opened. We had to wait for the office to open, because we wanted to tell them that the toilet paper holder was pulling away from the wall, the shower door would not shut — and, of course, about the mold problem in the non-suite. The fellow at the desk on departure didn’t offer anything to convey he regretted guest dissatisfaction. So, we won’t be suggesting a stay for the film crew. We are from the deep South , and we know humidity. We’ve never experienced this level of funk, outside of childhood camp. I have no idea what the air quality of other suites may be. Given the photos, the other rooms do appear more suite-like, as far as living space is concerned. We’ll never know. PS — we didn’t have the opportunity to enjoy the lovely pool/garden area, because we weren’t told how to (and couldn’t figure out how to) access it! The office was closed, so we couldn’t ask,

Really Cute Place, Comfortable Stay, and Great Location. They have a Speakeasy/Bar with comfortable lounge and craft cocktails. Highly recommend. I would recommend that management consider providing robes, at least upon request.

My husband and I went to Ocean Springs for a quick weekend; one night trip. The hotel was beautiful and full of Southern Charm. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. We loved the location being that it's a quick 10 min walk to downtown. The bar and live music was excellent! We enjoyed sitting outside by the fire pit with our cocktails. I just wish that we were provided bottled water or somewhere to refill a re-usable water bottle. The coffee and tea assortment provided in the room was great. We will definitely be planning to stay here again!

Great property. We are fans! My wife and I were able to walk to both the beach (amazing sunset) and to dinner in town; it seemed equidistant to both. Just several blocks to each - very doable.

Great stay, nice boutique hotel within walking distance of beach and village. Unique and well maintained. Would stay again!!
