It doesn’t take long to cross from side to side and is very easy. But there is a silver lining! A breezeway connects the Beach View Hotel to the Island View Hotel. Can you imagine the walk from there? Whoever thought of this, was not thinking straight. HaHaHa If that area fills up, then you have to park in the garage. Our room, had a really great view of the city (Gulfport) and outside parking area. There was a mini-fridge and writing desk / chair in the room. But you’re at a casino! Spending time in the room made me want to sleep and watch television. All of this is great, if you came just to relax. Have you ever tried them? They’re really good. There were Bath And Body Stress Relief toiletries in the bathroom. For some reason, I felt there should be a bit more of it (maybe that entire side of the wall). I loved the chic and sexy tile (strip) inside the shower. If I was the designer, I would’ve done something a little different. Usually casinos want to hype you up! They want you to go downstairs and gamble. The room is so peaceful you will want to sleep all day and night. Although appreciated, I was a little shocked that a casino would go for such a look. It seems Island View’s aim was to go in the same direction. Wellness hotels are very popular right now. The aesthetics were minimal, clinical, pure and clean. HaHaHa Island View could at least provide a shuttle service or something. Be ready to do so! Many older people patronize this casino. Because that is what you will be doing! Park and walk. So whatever you bring, be sure you can roll or carry it all. HaHaHa So my reservations were on the Beach View side.Īs of right now, the resort doesn’t offer valet parking. This was my first time visiting the resort, so I didn’t have such clout. Due to high demand and limited availability, members/players are offered first dibs to stay on the Island View side. Pictured below is the Beach View side (newer addition located across the street alongside the water). Pictured above is the Island View side (original portion of the casino resort).

Island View Casino & Resort has two sides. I started off at Hard Rock Biloxi, stopped at The Reef Biloxi Seafood Restaurant and then headed to Island View Casino & Resort in Gulfport, Mississippi. I celebrated my birthday, by taking a week long vacation to the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
