Where
will Vieux Crescente Resort and Marina be located?
The resort and marina will be located on the point of Biloxi’s
Back Bay, offering views of the Bay and the Gulf.
What is the Back
Bay?
Biloxi’s Back Bay is a large inlet that extends from the mouths
of the Tchoutacabouffa and Biloxi Rivers and empties into the Gulf
of Mexico. It is connected to other parts of the Biloxi area via
bridges and is relatively shallow, except for a shipping channel
to accommodate larger vessels. The Back Bay is home to numerous
islands of sea grass, which forms an unspoiled habitat for marsh
birds, fish, crab, shrimp and nutria. To locals, the Back Bay is
best known for its tranquil waters, wildlife and sunsets.
How is this resort
different from others?
Vieux Crescente Resort and Marina will be located in a very exclusive
and stunningly beautiful area of Biloxi’s Back Bay. It is
the only development currently planned for this area, which is sought
after for its low-traffic and peaceful atmosphere.
Are there other benefits
to living in the Back Bay area?
Yes. In addition to being located away from the busy and noisy beachfront
activities, the resort's location is better protected from weather
events coming off the Gulf of Mexico.
Are beaches available
to Vieux Crescente residents if they want access to the Gulf?
Yes. Beaches are located just minutes away, and are publicly accessible.
What casinos and
other forms of recreation are located nearby?
The Mississippi Gulf Coast is home to twelve major casinos, with
nine of those located in Biloxi. The area also offers opportunities
for boating, deep sea fishing, golfing and various attractions such
as Beauvoir and the Walter Anderson museum. Casinos, including Boomtown
and the Imperial Palace, are located in close proximity to the Vieux Crescente site on the Back Bay. Two more gaming destinations, the
Cuban-themed Havana and Bacaran Bay on Caillavet Street have announced
plans to develop nearby.
How are the residence
units being offered, and how many are available?
Phase One of the development will consist of more than 200 condominium
residences, a final number to be announced when all the design plans
are finished. These are being sold on a first-come basis. Plans
call for the development of a Phase Two tower following closely
behind the sales of Phase One.
Are all the residences
the same size?
No. Purchasers may choose between various floor plans ranging in
size from 1213 square feet to over 1900 square feet. Two-, three-
and four-bedroom units will be available.
What is required
to reserve a residential unit?
To reserve a unit, a buyer puts down a $7,500 deposit, which is
refundable. Preconstrcution reservations will be taken until November,
when contracts will be signed, and a payment equal to 20% of the
purchase price will be required and applied toward the price of
the unit.
