To sum it up, BOOK IT and you’ll be glad you did. Well, just in case you need convincing, how about a perfect location away from the city, next to a cafe that serves great food with customer service to boot. The neighborhood was as advertised, quiet and safe. Everyone kept to themselves. The outdoor table area was nice and provided a great wind-down spot after a bustling day. The bedrooms were spacious, and having independent baths was a plus. The master was incredible, and the bath made you stay longer than normal. The kitchen provided more than basic amenities, with a bar set to top it all off, which was a pleasant surprise. The owner was easy to work with and communicated very well. To sum it up, it’s pinned as one of my favs; do there you have it, BOOK IT!!!

The house was absolutely charming. Just far enough away from the city to really relax in the evenings and mornings, but close enough to enjoy everything NOLA had to offer. Our host was so accommodating! We had to extend our stay due to inclement weather cancelling our flight and she took wonderful care of us! If you’re looking for a beautiful, welcoming home with great food right next door for breakfast and lunch, look no further! Had the best time!!!

Our host was very responsive and helpful. Arriving was very simple and we had zero problems. The house itself was beautiful. Perfect for our group of seven adults. The back and front patios were used daily. The neighborhood was very welcoming and we felt safe walking all over Arabi and Jackson Barracks. Grocery stores were just three blocks away. There is a little store across the street but they were on vacation during our whole visit. Staying at this home made our trip to New Orleans very special.

Great weekend getaway home!

The rental was very spacious and clean. It was a great home for a group of 8 adults - each bedroom has its own private bathroom and the common area has plenty of space for everyone. And the Arabi food store across the street is amazing!

Relaxing Stay

The accommodations were perfect for my trip to New Orleans. It was in close proximity to the destinations that I wanted to go to. It eas also spacious enough for my mother who was using a walker to get around. I also enjoyed being able to sit out on the front porch to enjoy the wearher.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband Paul & I purchased the home in 2019. WE LOVE THIS HOME! It's a so easy to relax and be comfortable. It's a real gem in the Historic Old Arabi District. We also own another vacation rental on this same street. The original owners of the home were Mrs. Debbie & Mr. Mitch and they purchased this home after Hurricane Katrina in 2007- they renovated it and completely gave it a LIFE. I managed it for them as a vacation rental for over 10 years. When she asked if i wanted to buy it I JUMPED ON IT! We love this home!

Why they chose this property

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!! It's only 4 miles outside the FUN French Quarter Area. Our Area is called Old Historic Arabi- It's beautiful, and in a great location. The local neighbors here are so friendly and wonderful! Our local Arabi food store is directly across the street from this house and the Po-boys and breakfast sandwiches are AMAZING!

What makes this property unique

This home has a lot of character and charm. You must come visit.
I know you will love it!!
