Non smoking area doesn't stink like smoke! A big issue for me. I just can't do the smoke. Got some great play time with the money I spent. Won the hot seat and came out ahead. The food was the best I had while I was down here. Would absolutely come back!

Always a fun place to go! Fast friendly service! Beautiful casino with so much to offer! Fun for couples or friends,and family to go out and have a good time! You get Freeplay on your first visit! There are only a few casinos that do that now! Always clean ! Love the available games here! The food is always delicious!

Had an enjoyable experience here this morning. Played slots and then blackjack. I like the assortment of colorful games, and the casino floor is wide open with options. They have different games that you dont see at other casinos. I played $5 blackjack with a $102 thousand dollar progressive, which is hard to win, but makes it more fun. I only got to spend a few hours, but I was lucky and able to win some nice hands and pulls on the slots. When you get hungry, there's an array of food options, many open 24/7. The staff were friendly and helpful from the players club to the blackjack table. I like the atmosphere too. I highly recommend stopping by.

Casino itself was nice...but the buffet was terrible. It was $30, which was expected since it had seafood...but it was not worth $3, much less $30. Even though we arrived only 30 minutes after it opened, every single item, except for the crab legs, was stale and cold. There were NO exceptions. Fried foods were cold and soggy... inedible. Chicken in the stir fry...rubbery and inedible. Boiled shrimp were so over cooked and waterlogged that you could not peel them...inedible. Chocolate mousse had a thick rubbery skin...inedible. Yeast rolls had been brushed with butter, but, again, were cold, dry and stale...inedible. Nothing tasted as though it had just been cooked or even cooked that day. I could understand that if we had come in at the end of the evening, but not right after they opened. We left an all you can eat buffet hungry!

Very nice. The new location across the street does not allow smoking so made it even more enjoyable by far. So far I've been pleased with the atmosphere and gaming options. Still want to try the Sports Book

The stuff here were all awesome. They sent a shuttle to our hotel to pick us up and from there on, everyone was great. All you can eat seafood buffet with endless Snow Crab! Normally $30 per person but we got it free from the hotel. Lots of very high tech slot machines. Nice that smoking and non smoking gaming were completely separate. Shuttled again when we were ready to go.

Service needs much to be desired. Potato Soup had crab seasoning in in. Food was cold. Employees walking around with hands in pockets. Was told they didn't have pickles for burger but was on menu and management said they did have them. Wasn't told Thanks, come back or anything by Hosting Staff. They were to busy talking about other important life issue.

Editing my original post: Due to the island views new addition [smoke free gaming floor] my wife and I have an extremely convenient choice for a smoke free atmosphere! We went there the other day not to gamble though but for the begniet shop and dang it was worth it! Made fresh in front of you and were able to eat at a clean smoke free environment. It made for a break from the norm at my home at a very affordable price. I would definitely bring my entire family back again including the children!

Wonderful place to get away for a few days. Food is super good and the hotel is top of the line. Casino is large enough that you do not feel crowded. The comps are also great ..There are comps for food, free slot play, kiosk comps, and many others. My wife and I prefer this Resort over all the others on the Mississippi Coast. If you have a chance to visit Island View, do so. You will not be disappointed.

I really love it. The beach tower and the hotel rooms on that in are awesome and so clean. There is a small fridge in the room which a lot of hotels are lacking nowadays. They have a pool on both the beach side and casino. All pools now have a age requirement of 21, but there is beach access for everyone. There is no smoke smell. Awesome dining choices. CG grill is great with huge portions. An amazing experience each time we visit.

Had the Sea food dinner buffet a little pricey but excellent food and lots of choices. Then walked into the Casino and was treated like I was someone special. Just Loved this place. Very fun and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend you visit

Allergy sufferers beware! As a non-smoker and an infrequent gambler, I normally do not visit casino hotels unless I am attending business conventions. I am very familiar with the unpleasantness I experience while walking through the casino to my room. However, in the six or seven casino hotels I’ve stayed at previously, the allergens never permeated the rooms. I would like to point out that many, many people have no problem with air quality… but I feel it necessary to warn anyone who suffers from allergies or asthma to avoid this hotel. Enjoying a road trip with my sister, we decided to stop here for a couple of nights. The building itself seemed clean and the staff was friendly. However, there were hairs left in the shower and for some reason the valet employees do not open doors, greet, or help with baggage. Out of the four times we used the valet, only the gentleman at our departure assisted us. I wasn’t sure if it was company policy to not help and we got a good one… Or it is company policy to help, but all the other times we got bad ones. Had the only exceptions been the shower hair and valet, I would not be writing this review. However, their air quality is such that we cut our road trip short and I am returning home a day early to recuperate.

The food was fabulous at Carter Green's. We sat at the bar for dinner, as we always do. The girls behind the bar had some serious bad attitudes going on. No smile, little eye contact, no interaction.... just, well, nothing. It was actually kinda funny watching them go out of their way to be grumpy. We've not experienced that anywhere so perhaps they were having a bad night. A really bad night. So your best bet is to have dinner in the restaurant and skip the bar. We will be doing that next time.

I'm a frequent visitor and current V-card holder and Island View is my favorite casino on the coast. However, my visit last weekend was very disappointing. 1. My hotel room (5069 casino side) was located above the daily garbage pickup which occurs at about 5:30 am! And you can't sleep through that approximate ten minute process! 2.The refrigerator leaked all over carpet and maintenance could not repair and there was no replacement available. 3. They relocated me to a room (5013) where the toilet ran continuously and that refrigerator freezes everything! 4. Went to the Diner for lunch to get Saturday blue plate fried pork chop and was told they ran out of them by 12:30. Really?!? 5. I thought I left something in room 5069 when I changed rooms and contacted housekeeping and security for assistance and was informed that Lost and Found dept was only open a few hours a day and that I would have to wait until the next morning to get help. UNACCEPTABLE for such a large casino to have this policy! I look forward to hearing that these issues have been addressed.

The best casino in Mississippi! It is privately owned by Rick Carter and Tom Green. The casino gives the most comps in the state to New players as well as old. The staff is exceptionally friendly and the accounting are excellent. There is an abundance of places to eat from casual to fine dining. Two fabulous pools and a number of bars at this location. Entertainment is excellent there and ranges from little known artists to well established stars. The owners provide allot of assistance locally, as well as in other states for disaster relief.i frequently hi to Mississippi and always stay at Island View Casino Resort even though I have rooms comped to me at many other casinos. Definitely the best bang for your buck.
