Located a stones throw from the French Quarter and close to Frenchmen Street where you can enjoy live traditional Jazz and excellent cuisine!

We have the perfect solution to noisy, impersonal hotel rooms. Experience the charm of New Orleans from a 'Local's Perspective'.

*****This Unit Will Be Exclusively Yours.*****

******* On-Street Parking in Front of Our House.*******

Guests must be over 30 years old. No children allowed.

Surrounded by lush, vibrant foliage begin your day in the Big Easy with your morning coffee and newspaper to the sweet scent of jasmine and the gentle chirping of the many species of local birds.

Close enough to all the action while being peacefully quiet. The Lofty New Orleans has a Private, Secure Entrance.

Just a few short blocks away: Famous restaurants and watering holes, live music, shopping, art galleries, museums, antique shops, Jackson Square and the Moon Walk on the levee of the Mississippi River, Authentic paddle wheel Steam Boat Natchez, La Petite Theatre, Mahalia Jackson Theatre for the Performing Arts, Audubon Aquarium, Harrah's Casino, plus much more!

The cultural love child of genteel old Europe, the exotic Caribbean and the sultry South, New Orleans' original colonial neighborhood sets the scene for memorable romantic getaways. This is a city that revels in its passions, and for the visitor with an open heart the sensuality here can be infectious. It is also a city where people come to celebrate, whether by joining the massive public exuberance of Mardi Gras and other events or marking personal milestones in the lives of lovers, such as honeymoons and anniversaries. When a couple raises a glass in toast to each other, it can seem as though the entire town is following suit here.

Part of the appeal of New Orleans is its relaxed pace - a key ingredient to any romantic experience - and a leisurely carriage ride for two is a romantic way to get acquainted with the neighborhood at the beginning of a visit. Various types of mule-drawn carriages are available for hire at Jackson Square on Decatur Street. Carriage drivers generally narrate their tours of the Quarter with stories of various landmark properties, but just let him or her know at the start that you prefer to concentrate on your companion's company and you will have a serene cruise past the beautiful architecture and colorful street-scapes of the Vieux Carré. Snuggle under a blanket on the occasional chilly evening or bask in the tropical sunshine during another beautiful New Orleans day.

The French Quarter's many elegant restaurants make ideal venues for special meals with loved ones. But while the city is most famous for its Creole cuisine, it is the Italian restaurants of the French Quarter that offer some of the most romantic settings.

Great Marigny Location, All the Essentials

Carol’s place is in the perfect location in the Marigny, just a few blocks from Frenchmen St, the French Quarter, and an easy walk to the Bywater. The place is small and has everything you need for a weekend in New Orleans. We had a great trip and would recommend you stay here!

Great stay and a great location!

My wife and I stayed over the weekend at this property. The host was very nice and communicative. The room was small, but that was clearly advertised. It was more than enough for us. The location is close enough to everything that you can get there relatively quickly. But far enough away that it's always quiet when you come back.Would stay again.

This property is perfect. It is walking distance to the French Quarter and Bourbon Street and all the activities there. The bed is comfortable. The hostess gave us suggestions on where to eat and as we don't use our cell phone while out of the country even arranged a taxi for us.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Within 5 minutes of being on the property I was having difficulties breathing from the mold and dirt in the room. I called the owner and she started screaming at me about how clean her property is. We took multiple photos of the property. Up to a half inch of dirt in obvious areas. On the phone before arriving we were told there would be parking. There wasn’t any. All the photos of the property on the site are misleading. You don’t see the actual exterior home or the very narrow path to your room. Our room didn’t even have a real door. Flimsy closet double door is not a secure or a seal for warmth. NEVER stay at this property. It is not a B&B or anything remotely worth staying in.

Perfect location!

This was a perfect little spot for my daughter and I when we stayed in New Orleans for The Eras Tour! The rental is small, so I would recommend it for one or two people, max. This made it perfect for my daughter and I. The location was beautiful and a short walk to all of the French Quarter. I felt safe and Carol was extremely helpful!

No better place for the price if you want to be close to Frenchmen St and the quieter end of the French Quarter. The bed is comfortable, the shower is hot with good pressure, and parking on the street all week was never a problem. Great response from host. It's basically the size of a smallish hotel room with fridge, microwave, coffeemaker and basic utensils and dishware. Highly recommended for solo and couples.

Nice place for the price

Pros: Price - good price considering the prices in the area. Clean and amenities - the small room was clean, had mini frig, microwave, and some dishes/silverware to use. Location - the room was in great proximately to Frenchman Street, the market and restaurants/bars which the owner provided lots of recommendations. The area felt safe to walk around in and as the owner did advise we take everything from our vehicle that we parked on the street to ensure we were not broken into, it was left alone. Cons: Bed - The bed was not the most comfortable for us and is starting to feel its age. AC - the AC had to be turned off when not there and set to no lower than 74 degrees. When we returned in the afternoons, the room was like a sauna and took a full 30+ minutes to cool to a relatively comfortable temp. 74 felt hard for it to maintain and for light sleepers, the wall AC unit kicks on/off all night. 2nd floor - note this unit is on the 2nd floor at the back of the owners house, so you will have to climb stairs to access and bring up luggage. TV and Wifi - the TV is not a smart TV so you are only able to access cable channels. The wifi struggled to allow us to watch any videos on our phones and sometimes even bring up simple Google searches, so we just used our data to surf which worked for us. Outdoor area - while it shows a cute little patio area in the photos, that was not there/accessible as the owner has lots of pretty pots / plants filling the tables and chairs now.

Belle cité la Nouvelle-Orleans

L’emplacement de l’appartement est très bien au coin de Bourbon donc nous pouvions marcher et durant ces 5 jours on n’a pas utilisé la voiture, nous avons arpenté la ville à pied dans toutes les directions. Il faut que les gens sachent que c’est très petit comme appartement, au fond de la cour qui est encombré , au 2e étage avec un escalier étroit donc à faire attention. Ceci dit notre hôte Carol est très gentille et s’assure que tout est correct et qu’il nous manque quelque chose.

Over watch

The resident and location were nice and safe. Definitely only big enough for single/couple stay. The landlord is what made my stay uncomfortable. I felt like every time I was entering/exiting the location I was being watched out her back window. I was in town with family who stopped by with me when I checked-in. Later that evening, I received a message from the landlord acquiring about the guest and reassuring me the rules of the lease. I replied acknowledging I knew the rules and they were just accompanying me to check-in. It was just weird and I felt watched the duration of my visit.

About the host

Hosted by Carol

Host profile image
I am a professional who came to New Orleans post-Katrina to work on homes in Chalmette, (Saint Bernard Parish) that were damaged by water and oil spill that occurred from Katrina. I fell in love with this city and the people here and decided to purchase a home and re-locate. I believe in the special magic of New Orleans and it's people and am dedicated to the rebuilding process.

Why they chose this property

New Orleans is the most unique city in the United States with a European 'feel'. New Orleans architecture, history, music, art, and world renowned cuisine attract visitors from all over the world. I chose this property because of its proximity to the French Quarter and Frenchmen Street. Our home is located in the famous Bend of Bourbon where the 'Street Car Named Desire' once traveled. We are surrounded by mansions and homes on the National Historical Registry.

What makes this property unique

We are located in the historic Marigny in a quiet, residential neighborhood, a stones throw from the French Quarter and 2 blocks from Frenchmen Street, where traditional live jazz still reigns king.

Enjoy convenient, free on street parking directly in front of our home.

New Orleans is a walking city and our home is conveniently located to access famous restaurants, watering holes, live music, live theatre, shopping, museums and sightseeing without the use of a car.
