Hotel Vela

Make Yourself At Home

A seductive boutique beauty set a stone’s throw from Gulfport’s beaches and blackjack tables, Hotel Vela ushers in a new way to stay in the Mississippi Gulf Coast’s largest city. All new, yet rooted in a bygone era of sultry jazz and secret speakeasies, our 16-room hotel is tucked in one of the city’s most historic buildings, channeling the port city’s legacy as the Gulf Coast’s undisputed boomtown. You’ll feel it in every original brick and floorboard.
