License: 24-XSTR-24029 Situated on the edge of the Bywater, our little neighborhood is between the canal, St. Claude Ave, Poland Ave, and North Claiborne Ave. Lowpoint (coffee shop) is the anchor of the neighborhood and the other side of St. Claude Ave (two blocks away) is the heart of the Bywater. The Bywater is a historic neighborhood with colorful homes and lots of great bars and restaurants (Bacchanal, Parleaux, Vaughns, Bj's, etc.) - we recommend checking it out! If the weather is nice and you have comfortable shoes, walking from the Bywater --> Marigny --> French Quarter (stopping at bars and restaurants along the way!) is a great way to spend a day. Furniture and art may vary from pictures. We have 24/7 on-site staff / security - we're in the small building with the CastleDay logo. Guests can stop by for complimentary extra supplies (paper towels, dish soap, etc.) or immediate assistance in the event of a lockout. Per City of New Orleans regulations, this property is equipped with a noise monitoring device. It does NOT record actual sounds or conversations, it simply monitors the noise level (measured in decibels). We know you're a large group - just keep noise to a reasonable volume outside. This device also monitors occupancy and cigarette smoke. For the security of our guests, we have external recording devices (security cameras) located by the front gate and back door of the house. All cameras are exterior only. For the privacy of our guests and our neighbors, drones are prohibited. Please note that our neighbor, the US Army Corps of Engineers, will take legal action in the event a drone flies onto their property. Monday and Thursday morning pool cleaning and landscape maintenance: On Monday and Thursday mornings (between 7:30am-11:30am) our pool maintence tech comes to check the chemicals and clean the pool and our landscaper comes (every other Thursday) to do landscape maintenance. Use of the swimming pool is at your own risk. IDs will be requested for verification after booking. Hurricane policy: If the National Hurricane Center issues a Hurricane Warning for New Orleans covering your check-in date or any night of your stay, you may reschedule without any change fees, and any nights you don't stay can be moved to new dates within 12 months (rate differences may apply). If the city orders a mandatory evacuation, or the villa can't be used, those nights are refunded in full. Watches, tropical storm warnings and forecasts don't qualify, so we recommend travel insurance, bought before a storm is named.

October 2026

We stayed here for my bachelor party and it easily accommodated the 14 of us - most of us had our own rooms and the 8 bathrooms were essential when getting ready with a large group. The pool, basketball hoops, and massive TVs were also a huge hit and made for a memorable weekend! On top of that, the hosts were extremely communicative and proactive in reaching out, which was greatly appreciated. The only very minor "inconvenience" I'd note is the location, which is a little more out of the way, but we were able to get quick Ubers to the French Quarter and there are a few bars and restaurants nearby that are worth checking out. Plus, it was a very private space and we didn't feel bad playing music a little later with fewer neighbors to bother. Overall, I'd highly recommend to anyone thinking of staying here!

This was our second time at this property. The first for our wedding last year and this year for our jumping the broom ceremony. We always have an amazing time here. 10/10 recommend for large groups, small family get together, or bachelor or bachelorette parties.

The host was wonderful and communicated very well. The home looked exactly liked the pictures and the pool area was phenomenal. So many gathering areas, and plenty of room for our party of 20.
