Gulf Hills, MS

Tucked along Bayou Puerto and Old Fort Bayou, Gulf Hills is a quiet residential community nestled between Ocean Springs and St. Martin. The area began in the 1920s as a resort getaway, drawing visitors like Elvis Presley to its historic waterfront hotel and golf course. Today, it has grown into an established neighborhood where winding, tree-lined roads curve past mid-century homes, shady live oaks, and peaceful bayou inlets.

Because Gulf Hills sits along a gentle coastal ridge, the neighborhood features rolling terrain that is uncommon for the Mississippi Coast, alongside easy access to boating and fishing. Families are zoned for the St. Martin school system, and the Gulf Hills Civic Association helps keep the community connected through local events and neighborhood upkeep. Commuting is simple, with Interstate 10 nearby, Biloxi just a few miles west across the bay, and the lively shops and restaurants of downtown Ocean Springs right down the road.
