Holiday Rental Description

Just a fifteen-minute walk from the boogie-woogie of Bourbon Street and a ten-minute wander to the oh-so-trendy French Quarter, this bright and roomy home is just the spot for kicking off your dancing shoes and relaxing after a day taking it all in. Affectionately known as the Big Easy, this traditional industrial-style home is an ode to the roots of the city. Its floor-to-ceiling shuttered windows, exposed beams and a brick wall will give you a sense of local living from the moment you enter. Rise and shine with a workout in the communal gym, grab a seat on the rooftop terrace overlooking skyline views of the city, and settle down for a big American breakfast in the sleek black kitchen-come-dining area. Flooded with natural light, the living space is perfect for catching up on literature, sipping a cup of coffee, or planning the day's adventure – and boy is there a lot explore. With countless Creole and Cajun eateries, hip bars and jazz clubs, plus the Mississippi River on your doorstep, you'll be swept right off your feet. Good job you're got a cosy place to call home.
