About this property

The Mazant: Renovated 1880s Bywater Mansion w/Pool

'The Coolest Airbnb in Louisiana' by Condé Nast Traveler (2021).

The Mazant is a historic mansion located in the Bywater arts district of New Orleans - about 1-1/2 miles from the French Quarter (30 minutes walking / 8 minutes by Uber). We have 5,000 square feet of indoor space and 9,000 square feet of outdoor space.

Our home is professionally cleaned and sanitized using properly rated disinfectant for COVID-19, as outlined by the WHO.

Over the past several years we have renovated the property, seeking to preserve historic details including 13' ceilings with plaster medallions, heart pine wood floors, cypress doors, and a 175+ year old oak tree. At the same time, we also updated the layout to more comfortably accommodate large groups:

* 18-person dining room table
* Oversized living room with 75-inch television and Baldwin upright-piano
* 12’ x 24’ heated pool and spa
* Private yard (1/3 acre) with fire pit, six-burner propane BBQ, outdoor table, and hammocks
* Super-fast WiFi (the best tier that Cox offers)
* Front porch (gallery) with historic gas lamps and outdoor seating
* Off-street parking for two cars and ample street parking for overflow
* Viking kitchen appliances 

The house has eight bedrooms with layout as follows:

Downstairs
- Bedroom 1: one queen bed (semi-private bathroom - shower)
- Bedroom 2: one queen bed (ensuite bathroom - shower)

Upstairs
- Bedroom 3: one double bed and one single bed (ensuite bathroom - shower/tub combo)
- Bedroom 4: one double bed
- Bedroom 5: two twin beds
- Bedroom 6: one king bed
- Bedroom 7: two queen beds (semi-private bathroom - shower) and pull out sofa bed (double)
- Bedroom 8: one king bed

There is another shared bathroom upstairs (near the laundry room) with a clawfoot tub-shower combo.

The caretaker’s cottage is not available for rent. Our onsite caretaker is available to handle requests/questions throughout your stay.
