This is the same exact home and host (myself) as the one imaged above, one of the most popular homes in the city with a 4.98 rating and over 100 review.. I started a management company, Metis, and I was unfortunately required to start a new listing.

About this property

Historic 2BR Home, Perfect Getaway or Fest HQ

Summary:
You'll love staying in this beautiful home in the Mid-City neighborhood of New Orleans! Live like a local as you enjoy:
- A newly renovated historic home originally built over one hundred years ago
- Delicious local NOLA restaurants and bars that are within walking distance
- Easy access to the historic French Quarter - The street car, bike rentals, and the Lafitte Greenway are all within 2 blocks of the home
- Direct access to beautiful City Park
- High speed wifi, perfect for remote workers

The Space:
The home is nice and open with plenty of space to relax. The home includes central heating and A/C, a washer and dryer within the home, super high speed fiber optic internet service, high pressure shower, ceiling fans in both of the bedrooms and living room to keep cool, and much more. The living room and kitchen are nice open spaces with plenty of seating and space to relax and eat. Both of the bedrooms have brand new carpet floors and closets to keep everything cozy and organized.

The home was originally built around 1910 and recently renovated, but we maintained many of the historical elements of the home including: Trim work, the original wood floors (refinished), and the original doors and windows maintaining it's New Orleans feel. Also, the front porch has plenty of sun light and is a great place to relax and have a drink.

This location is a tri-plex with three total homes on the location: this home is the two bedroom unit on the right side facing the front yard and there is a long term tenant in the one bedroom unit immediately next door and a three bedroom unit in the rear of the property. It's a beautiful home and in an amazing location.

Guest Access:
Guest will have access to the home through a smart lock on the front door. To ensure safety, each guest is assigned their own four digit code which activates at their scheduled check-in, and deactivates after their check-out. The front porch is shared with the home next door, but they will have their own space with a table and chairs to be able to enjoy the nice weather.

Parking is super convenient, the street directly in front of the house is very well lit and has free parking on both sides, as do all of the surrounding streets. Aside from big events like Mardi Gras day you won't have a problem finding a spot very close to the home.

Other Things to Note:
MARDI GRAS: The home is one block away from the parade route of the biggest Mardi Gras Parade in the city - Endymion. This is one of the most convenient homes you'll ever find to be able to experience the thrill of Mardi Gras like a true local without having to worry about getting around town or finding a bathroom (a common issue people have when they have to travel to get to the parade route).

JAZZ FEST: The home is about a mile away from Jazz Festival, making getting to and from the concerts extremely easy. Door to door it's about a 25 minute walk to get to the festival, or about a 7-8 minute bike ride if you want to grab one of the pay per minute blue bikes (blue bike station is located about 2 blocks from the house). If you decide to walk there are plenty of good bars and restaurants along the way so you can enjoy a drink while you stroll to the festivities. It's just far enough away from the festival to be able to enjoy peace and quiet while at home, but close enough to be able to avoid driving and the insane traffic without having to miss any of the music.

Interaction with Guests:
Guest satisfaction is our top priority. Please message us if you need anything or if you have any questions and a member of our team will be able to quickly get back to you ASAP. And if there is an emergency please give us a call.

Fantastic stay - Home away from home.

The property was exactly as described on the website . Really nicely decorated, spotlessly clean , with all comforts of being at home. Larger than expected with lots of nice touches like coffee maker , bottled water water , toiletries , cooking spices etc. Laundry appliances allowed us to catch up on a bit of washing along with a fully equipped kitchen which again allowed us the choice to cook a few meals and eat in. Air-conditioning and fans through the property so staying cool in warm weather wasn’t an issue. Quite neighbourhood, with shops , restaurants nearby along with downtown bus and tram stops within a short walk. Although property is adjoined to another , never heard any noise or had any issues neighbours. When we chose to catch an Uber downtown, depending on time of day , fare was as low as $12 . Additionally only 15 minutes from airport. Communication with the host was really easy . always responded quickly to any queries. Gaining entry also really easy , we just followed instructions provided. Overall great stay and great value for money.

Perfect stay at Devin's house

Our daughter who lives in New Orleans recommended this house for us because of its location on a quiet street and close to City Park, the streetcar and a grocery store. It was the perfect place for us. It was quiet at night. The beds were comfortable. We felt safe. We loved the location.We would stay here again!

Location, location, location!

This place was exactly what we needed for our family of four. There's a grocery store, CVS, coffee shop, streetcar stop, and basically everything else within 2 blocks. City Park is just down the street. Comfortable accommodations within a classic shotgun house for a New Orleans feel, but not so fancy that you feel like you can't make yourself at home. Devin was quick to respond when we needed help with the streaming services, too. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice Stay

We enjoyed the location. It was very close to restaurants and grocery stores and minutes to downtown New Orleans. For the price it was well worth it. The neighborhood was safe and our area was very quiet. Comfy place to sleep. The duplex was well stocked with everything we needed. Our host was excellent in every way, from our first connection, until after we departed. He immediately communicated with us every time we needed him. He communicated very timely via text and e-mail. We found it a little challenging to to park right out front but there was always multiple places to park. Enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic Stay!

We are a party of 4 adults who have stayed in 4 other Vrbo houses prior to our arrival in New Orleans. I can honestly say hand on heart that this was by far the best one! The house was immaculately clean and the location was perfect with a pharmacy and supermarket only a 3/5 min walk away Plenty of bars/restaurants within walking distance. Great bus/trolley car transportation links.Devin the host was amazing, very attentive,accommodating and supportive when one of our party required medical treatment. We would definitely stay here again if we were to revisit New Orleans! We highly recommend this beautiful home!

All the comforts of home

My disabled 75 year old husband and I stayed for three nights. Devin, made sure that all the little extras were there so we would feel at home. The home was clean, well maintained and decorated nicely. We felt completely safe in the neighborhood. The only problem was the street/sidewalk right in front of the home was torn up making parking a bit of a challenge. I realize that is not Devin’s fault but a heads up would have been helpful. This however did not affect the way I felt about our stay. Thank you Devin!

Amazing!!! We couldn’t have asked for more!

This was an amazing trip from start to finish. Our host was unbelievable. He recommended local restaurants and was very communicative. The location was perfect. Centrally located but not in the middle of downtown. Very easy to get around and plenty of great places within walking distance. I couldn’t have asked for an easier or more organized stay. The home was just perfect. It looked exactly like the pictures and I was very impressed the minute I walked in the door. The place was spotless and the beds comfortable. We had a small hiccup towards the end of our stay and our host responded almost immediately and came right over to fix the issue. Things happen that can definitely destroy a vacation. Our host attitude was awesome and he did everything he could to make sure we were comfortable on top of addressing and fixing the problem. It turned out to be a fuse that probably flipped during a storm we had when we were there. I would book this spot in a minute and that is actually my plan for the next time we visit! Thank you so much for all the restaurant referrals. We’ll be back to finish off the list!!

We had a great time while staying here while visiting New Orleans! The home was exactly as pictured, beds were comfortable and the whole place was very clean (even by my very picky standards!).

New Orleans weekend fun

This house was very nice. It’s so close to everything, but far away enough that if you want to be away from the action of the city you can be. It’s nestled on a 1-way street that doesn’t get much traffic. And the trolley stops just a street away, so you don’t have to drive to Bourbon Street if you don’t want. The parking downtown is pretty rough anyway.The owner communicates clearly and as often as you need. The dining suggestions were spot on. My friends and I really enjoyed staying here! The stacked laundry area was the icing on the cake. No dirty clothes to take home 🙂. 10/10 would recommend. I’m booking here every time I visit.

About the host

Hosted by Devin Regan

Host profile image
My name is Devin - a proud New Orleans local who fell in love with this city back in 2010 and have lived here ever since. I loves sharing the magic of this city with visitors and helping others experience everything that I've come to love about this city. My passion for hosting inspired me to start Metis NOLA, a management business dedicated to creating exceptional stays throughout the city. I’m thrilled to help you experience the best of NOLA!

Why they chose this property

This location is AMAZING. Within just a few blocks you have: two giant grocery stores, CVS, some of the most popular bars and restaurants in the city, the Lafitte Greenway which is a bike path that goes directly into the French Quarter, City Park, multiple gyms and fitness centers, the famous Street Car, and bike rentals. You literally never have to drive or Uber/Lyft anywhere if you don't want.

And for big events and festivals, it doesn't get much better. This location is only one block away from the biggest Mardi Gras parade route (Endymion), just a few blocks from City Park which throws a ton of festivals throughout the year including Voodoo Fest, and less than a mile from the Fairgrounds which is home to Jazz Fest and other large events.

Our street is closed at both ends, so the only people that go through are other locals and guests who live on the street making it one of the safest and quietest streets in Mid-City.

What makes this property unique

You can walk or bike just about everywhere. The Lafitte Greenway bike path leads directly to the French quarter so grabbing a bike and heading that way is a fun way to see more of the city. There is a Blue Bike station only about 2 blocks from our house immediately off the greenway where you can grab a pay per minute electric-assist bike to easily ride into the quarter (costs $0.15 per minute of use). If you are looking to drive, Uber and Lyft are both very easy and cheap throughout the city. We also have the streetcar only a block away which is easy to hop on and off anytime.

Security:
To help keep our guests protected, we have a security camera installed on the front porch which records 24/7 video for the protection of our guests. It covers the front porch, front yard, and part of the street.

Parking:
There is free parking immediately in front of the home and throughout our entire neighborhood. If you have a car, parking on our street is very easy and safe.
