“A very short walk to the beach with beautiful sunsets!”
From the reviews
We fell in love with this resort. It's romantic while being family friendly. A very short walk to the beach with beautiful sunsets! In fact we loved Mississippi so much we are considering moving next year!
Room was clean and large. Great view. Small restroom, though. Water park was awesome. Arcade was fun and the restaurants serve good food.
Getting married at Centennial Plaza Resort
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
