Beautiful Lakeview New Orleans Home!
It was an awesome place, clean,comfortable beds , well stocked and great location. I definitely plan on staying there again in the future !!!

Bywater 4-Bedroom, 2 stories, 2 bathrooms!
Such a great place to stay. Ian even let us check in early! Which I was extremely thankful for. The house had all the amenities we needed, was clean, & had a nice homey feel with a lot of character. It was a short drive from the French Quarter, giving it a good location. Definitely a great stay for our first time in NOLA!

2 br ON streetcar line!-Uptown-near Oak St
As senior citizens we were delighted with our 2 week stay in this shotgun house in a lovely neighborhood. The home is lovely with wood floors and soaring ceilings. The location is perfect for nearby restaurants, grocery shopping, neighborhood walking, and sitting on the front porch watching New Orleans flow by (including the street car!) We always had a parking place right in front of the house. We knew Blair was available should we need any information. We would definitely return.

TulaneUniv/Pool-3 ppl + if family- No parties
Deborah was great, flexible with our timing and located close to our daughter at Tulane. We will be back!

Desire Street Comfort
Great place for the price and perfect ambiance to NOLA vibes

Uptown Home on Streetcar Line, Walk to Restaurants
I had a work meeting in this part of town and was so glad I stayed here. Airbnb is as advertised. Super clean and checkin very easy. Would stay again for sure. I didn’t have any issues w the streetcar noise. Would note for guests that two of the rooms are not attached to a bathroom but that’s nbd.

Expansive Modern Luxury Home - Streetcar Adjacent!
We stayed here for a bachelorette trip and it was fantastic! Walkable area with lots to do in any direction. We loved this beautiful home & greatly appreciate how friendly and helpful the host was from booking the trip all the way through check-out instructions. Thank you so much!

Canal DOWN |Streetcar Line MidCity| Add More Space
this airbnb is truly a hidden gem! the location is prime, with the trolly stop steps from the front door! the place was clean and the location is quiet! we had some issues with a sink, but Issac was quick to respond and quickly got it handled! the upstairs neighbors were nosy while walking around all hours of the night, but that was to be expected as a downstairs guests. I wouldn't recommend this place enough to anyone wanting to stay in new orleans for the proximity to everything around! we even talked about booking it for a family Thanksgiving soon! thank you for letting us stay!
Apartment rentals in New Orleans

Trendy Marigny Apt with Balcony on Frenchmen
Great location and beautiful apartment! Loved the floor to ceiling windows and balcony! Right on top of the action on Frenchmen Street and easy walk to many other areas; right off the quarter. As stated, it’s not quiet but that was expected. You’ll definitely hear the music, possibly a parade and locals late at night but we were prepared for that. Would definitely recommend.

Artistic 1B in lively mid city
Jas was a wonderful host! She was quick to respond to questions and provided great restaurant recommendations! The neighborhood was cute, peaceful, and felt safe. The location near the streetcar was convenient and made transportation around the city easy. The decor of the unit was very cool and interesting! I would recommend Jas and this Airbnb to anyone visiting New Orleans.

Gorgeous studio — historic oak-lined Esplanade Ave
I had the opportunity to stay at Sarah’s home to visit Nola for the first time with my best friend. We appreciated the beautiful neighborhood greenery and style of homes. Sarah and her husband were very hospitable during our stay, and their home is beautiful. We also felt very safe walking around enjoying the neighborhood. We are so happy we got to call this our home during our stay!

Private 1 bdrm apartment with kitchen in Kenner 💥
Just as pictured. Clean! And a responsive host. Zero complaints. Would stay again .

Historic: Esplanade Ave, City Park, Jazz Fest Apt
Alex’s home was a perfect place for our New Orleans weekend. The tree lined street is beautiful as well as all the gorgeous architectural homes. The home was clean, comfy bed & every thing we needed to make a quick breakfast every morning. Alex stopped to greet us when we were having coffee at the cute outdoor table & chairs. It was walkable to restaurants & groceries. We walked to Katie’s for dinner based on recommendations left by Alex. It was a short Lyft ride to Frenchman St for music as well as the French Quarter. We would definitely stay here again.

Irish Channel, Uptown Apartment: Private
We enjoyed our stay here when we were in town for a wedding! Excellent location right near magazine st and all the bars and restaurants it has to offer. Brian was very communicative and it was easy to check in and out. Defintiely would recommend staying here!

Courtyard Views at Maison Mouledous
I have stayed at many airbnbs and this was one of my favorites. We stayed with our 3 kids under 5 and we felt right at home. Walking to the nearby coffee shops and the saint charles street car was super easy and very beautiful. The Azeleas were blooming and all the houses around are beautiful. We felt very safe and thought this was the best location from a time we came 2 years ago. We ate dinner at Superior seafood one night and it was delicious and a quick walk. One night Lori made me a delicious cocktail because she saw me with all 3 of the kids and could tell it had been a long day on the french quarter. She was so accommodating and sweet! Would love to stay here again next time and will tell my friends! Thanks again Lori! The kids love the stuff animals you passed along and kept saying how kind you were.

Home of original Po-Boy near Bourbon & Frenchmen C
Comfortable, clean, and well-stocked historic apartment in Marigny. Robert, the host, was very friendly and met us at the apartment with snacks and bottled water which was a nice touch. The apartment has been fully modernized and has everything you could possible need for a nice trip. Definitely can recommend.

UPTOWN BEAUTY ON MAGAZINE ST.
Cute little place, accurately described, and shown in the photos. Ash is a very responsive and accommodating host, I really appreciate him & look forward to staying again.

Location and Luxury! 3 bedroom 2 bath condo!
This place is in a great location- walking distance to restaurants, bars, live music, and parade routes. You won't need a car if you'll be mostly in the garden district and French Quarter. Easy walking and plenty of Uber/ Lyfts/ taxis. The beds were comfortable. Two of the rooms did not have windows so they were especially quiet and dark (if that's what you want after being out too late).

Gorgeous, Sleek Condo at The Moderne
One of the best hosts I’ve stayed with on Airbnb. The place was as described and perfect for our trip. Will be back!

Festive Luxury Condo Near the Quarter with Balcony
This neighborhood was amazing. I was a little worried about staying in New Orleans but I was so surprised at how amazing the neighborhood was. Very liberal artsy vibe. We had a fantastic time

Steps to Streetcars | Lower Garden District Condo
We stayed at Gigi’s place for a Mardi Gras trip and couldn’t have asked for a better location. We were right in the heart of all the action with our own balcony to retreat to whenever we wanted! Plenty of restaurants and shops, and the streetcar picks up right outside. Gigi and David were very responsive and were even able to provide recommendations on where we could park our car for free during the parades. This is a stay that’s worth every penny!

Charming 2BR Condo Near French Quarter New Orleans
Exceptional apartment with a great layout for two couples and everything you need to relax and feel at home. Location was superb and close enough to walk to the French Quarter and downtown. Very quiet spot and we would most definitely recommend to others.

Downtown Delight-Gorgeous Private Courtyard Condo
We had a great stay! The space was quiet and super walkable to the French Quarter along with the Central Business District. Patricia was also great and gave us an earlier check-in and later check-out!

2BR Condo Steps to French Quarter
Great place to stay, close enough to the French Quarter without the all night noise. Condo was exactly as advertised. Check in process was very easy and the host was quick to reply with answers to my question. Would recommend.

Your guide to New Orleans
Introduction
New Orleans offers a round-the-clock festive spirit 12 months a year. Live music, particularly jazz, rings through streets lined with buildings dating back to the early 1800s. That’s when the city’s trademark Creole architecture, a mix of influences from the French, Spanish, and Caribbean was developed, adding a distinctly New Orleans touch. While the lively French Quarter gets all the attention, also explore the Marigny and Bywater, which have a more artsy vibe, and Audubon — surrounding Audubon Park — which is known as the University District thanks to Tulane and Loyola Universities. If you’re looking to visit more of the New Orleans metro area, Metairie is just to the northwest, Chalmette about 10 miles east, and Slidell about 34 miles northeast.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in New Orleans
February through May is prime time to stay in one of NoLA’s vacation rentals, when highs are in the mid-60s to mid-80s Fahrenheit and lows hover between the 50s to 70s — it’s also perfectly timed to celebrations such as Mardi Gras and the French Quarter Festival. December and January are also pleasant months — with the bonus of fewer crowds — when highs are in the 60s and lows typically don't fall below the mid-40s. Summer and fall can be more challenging, as stifling heat, mixed with humidity, reaches the 90s. June usually has the highest precipitation, and hurricane season lasts from June through November.
Top things to do in New Orleans
French Quarter
The legendary Bourbon Street is the most popular street in this historic neighborhood, and indulgence is a way of life here. But the district is also known for its majestic Jackson Square (where local artisans often display their work in an open-air market), jazz clubs, steamboat cruises, and fresh beignets with chicory coffee.
Garden District
A streetcar ride away from the French Quarter is a visual juxtaposition to the French Quarter — a chill suburban neighborhood dominated by grand mansions. Also stop at Lafayette Cemetery No. 1, which houses the tombs of early settlers from Ireland and Germany, or opt for one of the city’s cemetery tours to learn more about the history of this great city.
Mardi Gras World
Experience New Orleans’ most famous festival any time of year at this facility, where 80 percent of the Mardi Gras floats are built.
