Golden Nugget Biloxi
151 Beach Blvd, Biloxi, MS 39530
Golden Nugget Biloxi sits right on the beach at the foot of the Biloxi Bay Bridge, where the old Isle of Capri used to be before Landry's took it over and rebuilt it top to bottom. Nearly 1,200 slots and nearly 50 table games keep the floor busy around the clock, and a DraftKings Sportsbook covers game day. Morton's and Bubba Gump anchor the dining, and the H2O Pool + Bar draws a crowd of its own on hot afternoons.
Getting There
Golden Nugget sits at 151 Beach Boulevard, right on Highway 90 where it curves past the Biloxi Bay Bridge toward Ocean Springs — the last stop on Casino Row heading east, with Point Cadet and the small-craft harbor just across the road. From Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport it's about a 15-minute drive west on Highway 90, easier than fighting through downtown. Valet parking sits at the main entrance under the porte-cochère, and there's a free self-park garage behind the hotel tower if you'd rather skip the tip. Uber and Lyft drop right at the casino doors, same as the valet line.
On the Casino Floor
The gaming floor holds close to 1,200 slots and video poker machines, in denominations from a penny to $100, with more breathing room between banks since Landry's remodeled the place. Table games run in the mid-40s to about 50 on a given night — blackjack, craps, roulette, mini-baccarat, Pai Gow, Three Card Poker, Mississippi Stud, and Let It Ride. A dedicated poker room spreads cash games and occasional tournaments, and a separate high-limit room keeps bigger bettors off the main floor. Mississippi still permits smoking on the casino floor, which non-smokers should plan around — it's the one recurring gripe in an otherwise modern space.
Dining & Entertainment
Morton's The Steakhouse handles the special-occasion dinner, and Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. covers the family table with fried shrimp and a menu built around Forrest Gump references the kids won't get. Lillie's Asian Cuisine and Saltgrass Steak House round out the sit-down options, Michael Patrick's runs as the sports bar with games on every screen, and Starbucks handles the morning coffee run. Live music plays most weekends at Rush Lounge. Outside, the H2O Pool + Bar is the property's real draw in summer — a swim-up bar, twelve cabanas, ten daybeds, two fire pits, and a hot tub, with hotel guests getting complimentary admission and everyone else buying a day pass.
Our Take
Golden Nugget earns its regulars mostly on the pool and the rooms — ask around and you'll hear the H2O deck and the Gulf-facing views mentioned before anything about the tables. It's a fair pick for a couples' weekend or a summer pool trip where the casino is secondary to the beach and cabana life, and Morton's makes a legitimate date-night dinner without leaving the property. Serious grinders looking for a bigger poker scene or a smoke-free floor will find better matches elsewhere on Casino Row. Book a Gulf-view room if the budget allows — the parking-lot-facing standard rooms don't carry the same appeal, and the difference shows up fast in the reviews.
