If you want to actually experience New Orleans as opposed to just visit it, this is the best you’ll ever find. The house is amazing, but that’s only the start… The best breakfasts I’ve ever had (and I own 4 cafes…). Lyle had family and friends around when we stayed, and we were welcomed to join in an array of events that included live jazz on the patio, dinner prepared by a local chef and a crayfish party. The area is one of the most interesting and vibrant in the city - local independent bars, cafes and restaurants abound, and it’s a leisurely 25 minute walk along the river to the French Quarter.
I’ve been lucky enough to travel a bit, and this was the best AirBnB experience by some distance. In an age where you barely get to meet your host, this is a throwback to the essence of what hosting should be like.
Independently minded, jazz loving inquisitive adult travellers, you’ve found your nirvana!
