****IMPORTANT INFORMATION***
The condo does NOT have an elevator. Guests must use a spiral stair to access all 3 floors of the condo unit. This spiral stair is narrow and for some guests can be tricky to use if you are disabled, impaired, and/or unfamiliar with spiral stairs. Always use the handrail when on the spiral stairs. Please use caution when carrying items like suitcases, ice chests, groceries, supplies, etc. up and down the spiral stairs. Typically, the smaller the load is to carry up, the easier it is. We highly suggest guests pack in smaller suitcases since large suitcase maybe difficult to bring up 2 flights of stairs. We also have shoulder bags that can be helpful for carrying items up the stairs. Please note that this is not an ADA accessible facility.

Guests are allowed access to the parking area, 1st floor entry vestibule, and 2nd/3rd floors of condo unit. The Bayou Teche boardwalk and waterfront park are both public areas that guests are allowed to access. Guests are prohibited from entry into the 1st floor garage and roof top. Please do not climb the access stairs to roof.

Since this condo unit is attached to an office suite, it is common for the office employees to enter/exit the office through the 1st floor entry vestibule during normal business hours.

Arrival is self check-in and you will be provided with check-in instructions prior to your arrival. We live only a few minutes away from the home and work in the adjacent office suite next door. Should you need to reach us, we are always available by phone 24/7 for questions or recommendations. Also, you will have the entire home to yourself, however there is a shared entry vestibule with the adjacent office next door.

    We had an amazing stay! The bed was super comfy and the shower was awesome!! Super cute place to stay with great views of the bayou. Make sure to try out Lizzie's for a yummy dinner and the Church Ally Cafe for great coffee and breakfast.

    Clean, classy, and cozy. Tensas Tower was perfect for our stay over the Thanksgiving holiday. We truly enjoyed everything about the condo and its location.

    First, the spiral staircase that takes you from the ground level entry door to the 2nd floor living area, and then from the 2nd floor to the 3rd floor bedroom and full bath is narrow and steep. I had no problem, but any bag larger than a backpack stayed in the car. We absolutely loved every minute at this property. The apartment had everything we needed. Coffee maker worked great, ice maker in the freezer was full of ice. Pots to cook, salt, pepper and cajun seasoning. My son slept on the sofa downstairs and the king bed on the 3rd floor was very comfortable. We enjoyed the patio immensely, and spent the evenings out there. There are a few good restaurants walking distance and a family member of mine with a boat picked us up at the dock out front and took us for a ride. We plan to rent again!

    My husband and I took a weekend trip to New Iberia for our 21st wedding anniversary. He is a big history buff and has been wanting to visit the tabasco plantation. We had a very relaxing time. The place was neat, clean, and intriguing. We lad a lovely time.

    We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The condo was just as described. Great location. Thankfully I read the reviews and prepared myself for the narrow spiral stair case. Pack smaller bags and not too heavy or large size luggage. We will absolutely book again when we are back in the New Iberia area.
