I would definitely book this property again. The host was very responsive to all of my questions within the same 24 hours. Matter of fact within 1-2 hours of my questions. They left refreshments for us along with personal hygiene items if needed. The neighborhood is so beautiful and very family oriented. It is very quiet and sheriffs within feet if needed on multiple locations within the neighborhood. They do have security who drives around throughout the night as well. It is within 30 minutes of New Orleans. Stores within 12-15 minutes.
Great location, great for families and/or weekend getaway
Great size property, big enough for everyone. Clean and had everything you could want for a great time in Slidell! Would love to return! Really nice owner!

Thanks for staying with us. We look forward to hosting you all again!
This is an excellent location and we would definitely stay here again. Our host was great with communication. In fact, when we arrived we noticed one of the remotes in a bedroom was missing (previous guest may have taken it). Within one hour of my message to the host, Walmart brought a replacement remote, batteries and also a case of water! I highly recommend this property to anyone coming to the New Orleans/Slidell area
We stayed in this wonderful home , while visiting our daughter and son in law. The house was clean a comfortable and perfect for our family. Communication with the owner was fast and he was very attentive. We will stay again next time we go to visit.

It was a pleasure hosting you. We look forward to hosting you guys again!
We were in LA for a family vacation. (Me and my 2 adult sons). The house is in a great neighborhood for taking walks and is just a short drive to restaurants, stores, etc. We spent time in Mandeville, Slidell and New Orleans and each day, we were thankful to get back to the house to relax and unwind.
Our stay was amazing 👏 .The location and the house 🏠 were great. The house was cozy and felt like home. We traveled with 4 adults and we each enjoyed the spacious house. We certainly would stay at this location again when back in the New Orleans area.
The host communication was seamless and efficient.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. We were so grateful to have all the essentials available. Coffee, snacks, toiletries and so much more. Very quiet neighborhood, the sky views from the backyard patio are beautiful! I absolutely would stay again.

Thank you for those kind words! We look forward to having you guys back.
This was an awesome place to stay while visiting friends. The pictures dont do it justice, as Its even better in person. There was many items left for us like a basket of snacks, waters, sodas and the bathrooms were stocked with toothbrushes, toothpaste, qtips, body wash shampoo. Many items that if you forgot to pack they are there for you!The neighborhood is quiet and family oriented. We went for numerous walks and everyone was super friendly. And its just minutes away from the Highway. Highly recommend staying at this property!

Thank you for the awesome review. We truly appreciate you staying with us and we look forward to hosting you again in the future.
We were in town for a family wedding and traveling with our 10 year old son, our daughter and her boyfriend. Having the kitchen for meal prep was a lifesaver. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the property owner was available for any questions. We have family living in the area, and will likely stay here again if needed and if available 🙂 10/10.

Thank you for your patronage! We hope to have you guys back soon.
5 star stay!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We enjoyed the complimentary snacks and refreshments, and the house was very well stocked with essentials. Very clean and the owners were quick to respond if we had any questions. The area was amazing as we were a little worried about where to stay before boarding for our cruise. Will be back!!

Thank you Oswaldo. You guys were awesome. We look forward to hosting you all again!
I have stayed at some "shady" VRBOs in the past, but this place gave me a new reason to stay at VRBOs instead of a hotel. Plus, instead of price gouging, it was less expensive than a hotel. That is great marketing; then, one can stay longer.
Very comfortable, and the extras were welcomed. Thank you for the great visit!
In our years of VRBO experiences, these hosts take the Best Host award! They were so kind and truly made us feel at home. The house is beautiful, in a very nice neighborhood, and is great if you are a family visiting with children. Large fenced in backyard for privacy. VERY clean with modern amenities and appliances.
We will be back and can’t recommend this property and these hosts enough!!

Great communication with property manager! House was as pictured. Very clean! They thought of everything, loved the welcome snacks. Perfect when coming off the road from a long road trip. Will try to book every time we come to visit family. Close to restaurants, Walmart, and shopping.
Thanks Osahon!
