'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 wehave 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.

    The house is beautiful, well-appointed, and in a convenient location. We were 16 people, 8 adults, and 8 kids who ranged from 4-18 years old. There was plenty of room for all of us, including an alcove of three rooms for our teenagers and loads to do, including relaxing in the pool and hot tub- even though it was January.

    Beautiful renovated property in the Bywater. Great place to stay away from the crowds and busy streets of New Orleans. Try The Joint BBQ down the street, some real nice folks in there.

    What a wonderful celebration at the most magicl place! Our good friends suggested Mazant after spending Thanksgiving there last fall. We were celebrating our 50 th wedding anniversary with children and grandchildren and could not have found a more perfect place. We did leave the property for a special blessing at St Louis Cathedral, a visit to the French Quarter for beignets, a little shopping and jazz music, but time at the Mazant was the best part of our stay. The pool, the side yard for badminton, the patios for enjoying homemade pizzas and a shrimp boil were amazing. The house itself is even more beautiful than the photographs. Every room functional and beautiful. Comfy beds and sofas, nice bathrooms and kitchen and formal dining spaces were all appreciated. The books, games, art and historical documentation were enjoyed by everyone!

    Came with a large group of friends, and had the most wonderful time. House was large enough that no-one felt on top of each other. Renovation was very well done, and the decorating was very thoughtful. Loved the neighborhood as well.

    The Mazant couldn’t be more wonderful! It was a perfect location with many walkable restaurants nearby and the house has plenty of room for everyone. Can’t recommend enough.
