About this apartment rental

This 1840's gem has been painstakingly renovated up to and beyond its former glory, making the perfect base from which to explore New Orleans. Sitting on the 2nd and 3rd floors above Magazine Street, you will feel at home in a tranquil oasis that belies the busy street below. The apartment has completely modern amenities throughout, which blend seamlessly with the grand scale and historic features of a bygone era. Take in the activity of Magazine Street from the generous balcony above. Wonderful living areas flow easily through the layout. A sumptuous Master Suite, including a laundry room off the hallway, awaits on the 2nd floor. Another 2+ bedrooms plus a great room provide a great surprise on the 3rd floor. Steal unobstructed glimpses of the gorgeous (and also newly renovated) church behind us through the rear-facing windows and you'll swear you're on a European holiday! Enjoy the best of all worlds during your stay at Maison de Violette!

The property is great. There is plenty of space, the kitchen is modern, it's very quiet, the beds are comfortable, the outside deck is nice, and it's very well furnished and decorated. It's charming. The location is great too as there are many cool shops and places to eat in this area. And the host is fantastic: very helpful and responsive. As for the bedrooms, there's a nice master suite on the first floor. Bedrooms two and three are on the second floor; they are part of a larger room and are closed off by curtains (not walls). I wouldn't say it's a true 3 bedroom.

My family enjoyed this beautiful home. It was stocked with everything we could have needed, including coffee, wine and some delicious sweet bread for breakfast. Juan's Flying Burrito downstairs is a must-try. We walked throughout the beautiful homes in the Garden District, and caught the street car to visit the the French quarter. What a lovely time.

We've been visiting New Orleans regularly for almost twenty years and this flat was the hands down best place we've stayed. It's been beautifully restored, the attention to detail was fantastic - great art, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, great linens and the space is just open and flowing. The deck overlooking Magazine Street was well used for evening drinks, we cooked several meals in the well appointed kitchen... it was really a great stay. The A/C worked great, with separate settings for upstairs and downstairs. We were traveling with our two children (ages 5 and 3) as well as another family of four (children aged 15 and 17). The Master BR suite is nicely private, down a little hallway off the kitchen... our little kids loved the upstairs where we all had our own bed to use. The private bedroom upstairs was fine for the two teenagers - but that is the only slight drawback is that if you have eight people then six of them are upstairs and two on the main level where the Master BR is. But we're close with our friends and loved it. We were all very sad to leave, really loved it. Plus the location is awesome - cafes, restaurants, boutiques up and down Magazine Street but you can't hear a thing from inside. Can't wait to go back!

If you’re looking for a stunning property, look no further! A walk through the lavender door & you feel as though you’ve been transported to the inside pages of Architectural Digest. The perfect amount of old charm & character with antiques & art that will have you wandering around, just taking it all in room by room. The heavy, custom drapery, old wood floors, bamboo dining table, ceiling height, original art, wallpaper & antiques, you can’t help but fall in love with your surroundings. If you appreciate design like I do, this place is for you, just beautiful!!!! Our family traveled to New Orleans from Germantown, TN & we couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Not only was the property breathtaking, the location can’t be beat! We enjoyed walking to breakfast, lunch & dinner most days, ice cream a few doors down, coffee each morning at a different (walkable) spot & people watching from the balcony. We were even lucky enough to see a bride & groom celebrating their nuptials with a second line band, it was the perfect ending to our trip! If you like to shop, Magazine Street is the perfect place, the neighborhood is very walkable & we always felt safe. Communication from the owners, Tom & Melanie, was perfect & they were SO informative & helpful!! Thank you for your hospitality, we enjoyed the wine upon arrival & our boys were thrilled to have the donuts!! What a special spot you have, thank you again, Tom & Melanie!! As they say in New Orleans, laissez le bon temps rouler!
