English was also named a Best New Chef by Food and Wine Magazine. Next on our itinerary was a romantic dinner at the Magnolia House by Kelly English, a James Beard Award semifinalist. Jim relaxed and meditated during a 50-minute massage while I treated myself to a manicure. Guests are invited to arrive early and unwind in the wet room or aromatherapy/sauna prior to spa appointments. The hotel has a fitness center next door to the 16,000-square-foot Bellissimo Salon and Spa. One of the advantages to a Southern destination is the mild temperature in the fall and winter. Our fourth-floor windows overlooked the Gulf of Mexico and the outdoor heated pool, where guests can lounge in cabanas.

The large bathroom equipped with a roll-in shower provided ample space for a power wheelchair. Additional amenities included a wet bar with a mini fridge, two bathrobes, an in-room safe, free WiFi and coffeemaker. The sofa sleeper and chairs can easily seat five. Each side of the suite featured a 49-inch, flat-screen television. An extra-long credenza separated a king-sized bed from a seating area. We planned a leisurely 24-hour visit that included a stop at the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art, currently showcasing the works of the Mad Potter of Biloxi.Īfter exploring the museum, we drove less than a mile and checked in to our wheelchair-accessible suite at Harrah’s Gulf Coast. The sunlight sparkled on the water as we drove into Biloxi.
