Diamondhead Resort
Stay at the Diamondhead Resort and you'll be less than 50 miles from New Orleans and about 15 minutes away from the Silver Slipper Casino in Bay St. Louis. You can get meals at the the hotel restaurant, Jade's Grill and Bar, and can dance and order you favorite libation at Club Nvee. For a snack, Dairy Queen is at the resort. Take a leisurely swim in the on-site pool and after a round of golf, rest those travel-weary muscles in the hotel's spa tub. Room amenities include Internet access and cable television, with a microwave available on request.
