Our stay here was a HUGE disappointment! The floors were so dirty, our white socks turned black. The oven door was broken. The bathtubs had hair left in them. We found a used condom on the floor in one of the bedrooms. We had wash the dishes and utensils upon arriving, because they were unclean. The pool was unusable because it was not heated and littered with leaves, etc. The doors stick, so there is a lot of pulling and slamming to get them to open and shut. None of the windows could be opened to let in any fresh air. The manager only responded to our requests half of the time. The pillows and mattresses are old and smelly. If this level of cleanliness is acceptable by management, then I would recommend a new manager. We have never been in a dirtier vacation rental as this one!!

Good location , plenty of room to spread out , big back yard ..within walking distance to most places or a 8 dollar Uber ride anywhere you want to go for the most part. Locals around the house were nice and no problem… we walked and felt safe …
Only negative feedback was the back yard ( all concrete) could use some cleanup. Empty pots and over grown flower beds. We really enjoyed the space and the pool but there were sticks , leaves etc gathered around like it hadn’t been swept or cleaned up for awhile. Fountain wasn’t working either and there was a ton of mosquito larvae in it. The house could use some deep cleaning ( baseboards, behind doors in the bathrooms , windows etc) other issue was we set up a ride to and from the airport with Shinda and pickup was great but after no one showed to take us back to the airport we called and text several times and finally got a call back saying she was stuck in Baton Rouge and couldn’t get us but was sending her son. So we were 45 min late leaving the rental for the airport. From what we gather we were forgot about. No text telling us the plans had changed etc. we had to prepay for that service also.
There were several homeless people who we did see using the hose spigot in front by the main entry door to the house to shower etc. and who camped out on the front stoop overnight.
The people at The small people bar just a block down were friendly and a lot of fun. They were all locals , overall a good experience

House is everything you'd expect from an older New Orleans home, turned vacation rental. Great place for a bunch of grown men to have their own space. Pool is small but deep, was really fun to turn into a whirlpool lol backyard could use some love/powerwashing, but it was a very nice spot to relax.
2 things, if you're a woman I would not walk back here unless you're in a group.
Also, need to take the fountain out, or get some mosquito dunks. It is just a massive breeding ground for larvae and it made the bugs extra thick in the backyard.

This house is a historic older home. It is located in an ideal spot for the French Quarter and the JazzFest. The house is divided into two duplexes. Each has a kitchen. As in many VRBOs - many of the beds are placed in rooms without doors. The kitchens were well stocked. The only disappointment part was that the back yard area needed maintenance. The fountain doesn’t work and there was some mold. The most outstanding part of this property however is the property manager, Shinda. There were 10 of us and she transported us everywhere. She would arrange for as many cars as we needed. She picked us up from the airport. She was ALWAYS on time, very nice, and made sure we were ALL taken care of. I would rent this property again. Great place for a family New Orleans stay. But- only with Shinda!!!!

The location and backyard were excellent. Interior of house was barebones and in need of a deep cleaning and a refresh of linens/pillows/towels.

This property is ideal if you are traveling with responsible teens or 2 families. It's almost like they have there own apartment next door. Location was excellent. Vibrant Treme!

We had a good time in New Orleans and enjoyed our stay at Kreole Kottage. I was surprised that the units didn't connect from the inside. The back yard was beautiful and the boys enjoyed the pool.
Minor issues - coffee maker on one side was marginal. Bathroom bulbs out when we arrived. one side code did not work on the way in. Both sides codes shut off at noon the day before we were scheduled to check out, so we spent the next few hours packing, cleaning, starting dishwasher, etc., and wondering if we were going to have to make alternative plans. We had changed flights to leave that evening and VRBO finally acknowledged that it was an error on their side, but it was a pretty stressful last day.

I had my bachelorette party stay here (11 women) and we had the best time. The backyard and pool area were a favorite hang out. I definitely recommend this VRBO for a large party. The area a couple blocks away is a little dicey but we didn’t have any issues. The hosts were very timely and helpful with communication.

We enjoyed our time at the property! It’s a couple blocks away from a pretty sketchy area but we didn’t have any issues. It’s about a 10-12 min walk to bourbon street.

Came back to NOLA for the Sugar Bowl and rented both sides of the house for our party of 10 and wound up with beds to spare. House was in perfect location and it was a short walk to the Quarter. We were even able to make the 45 minute walk to the Superdome and avoided using Uber/Lyft altogether. The weather was exceptionally warm for NYE (even for NOLA standards) and we made use of the wonderful courtyard/patio area. WiFi was fantastically reliable. Only issue we found was that we were only able to watch local channels on the cable tv. Wanted to catch a basketball game on ESPN but got an error message every time. We wound up watching on our phones instead.
Lil Dizzy's is a must if you stay at Kreole Kottage. It's a 5 minute walk to the hands down best dining experience we had in NOLA. The fried chicken is no joke!
Would definitely try to book here again if/when the need arises!

Great location from French Quarter & Frenchman street, easy walk to both. Pool was great to cool off on a hot summer day. Patio area was very cool and unique. We had both sides of the house and had plenty of room for everyone.

We had a great stay at Kreole Kottage. We were in town for the College Football National Championship game. The location was perfect, easy to get anywhere quickly. We used Uber the entire stay and never had to wait more then 3 or 4 minutes. We rented both sides and had a tremendous amount of space. All communications with Lorenzo and property manager Shinda were literally answered immediately. We had absolutely no issues and there were plenty of supplies in the house. House is on edge of French Quarter in an area that is clearly in the midst of gentrification. Nice mix of old timers and newcomers and everyone we saw greeted us with a a hello and a smile. Several little corner stores within walking distance that sold just about anything you could think of--food, beer, alcohol, ice, snacks, soap, etc. Breakfast and other restaurants within walking distance as well. There is a little bar that also serves some food about a block down the street and the owners and patrons could not have been more welcoming. Made us feel at home right away and we had a lot of laughs. Based on our experience, we would definitely stay here again, or if unavailable at one of Lorenzo's other properties on our next visit to New Orleans.

Kreole Kottage
This is a great house/duplex! My group rented the entire property for a 5 day stay. Ten people slept comfortably with plenty of options, four and a half bathrooms met our needs, 2 kitchens were fantastic, and the courtyard is a nice relaxing area. Convenience stores, restaurants, historic sites are all within walking distance. Parking can be a little challenging so I would suggest not moving your vehicle once it's parked or you may lose your space. The neighborhood is friendly with a small bar that served us $5 catfish plates. We chose to rent bikes and a golf cart to travel daily into the French Quarter Festival. I love NOLA!

The property was perfect for our group of eight ladies. We all had our own bed and did not have to double up or use the two queen sofa beds. It is a very short walk to French quarter. We never bothered with Lyft or busses. We are all in our 50’s and the walk was refreshing. We always felt safe and the locals were very friendly. Every time we walked we cut over and walk a different street down and home. The home is far enough away from the Noise of the quarter. They are corner grocery stores/mini marts. Lil dizzies was a favourite and we ate their twice. Big E and Barbara picked us up from airport and drove us back. They are both wonderful people and we’re full of recommendations. The house is as advertised. We weee sad to leave our NOLA home. The ladies in our group all agreed were couldn’t of had a more perfect location. Thanks Lorenzo.

Perfect in every way!
Kreole Kottage is a perfect place for any large group! We rented both sides of the property for a group of 13 women and had more than enough room. We all had comfortable beds, and the kitchen easily seats 11. The house is very well appointed -- sheets, linens, hand soap, garbage bags, basic spices, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. -- it was all there! It made it very easy to pop into NOLA for a fun weekend getaway. The owners/managers of the property are also extremely responsive. They answered all of my questions (and there were many!) and provided a Welcome Packet with lots of tips on things to do and restaurants to visit. Additionally, the location was great. I would DEFINITELY recommend this house to others looking for a comfortable, fun place to stay in the French Quarter!

Over all a great stay
Check in was simple. House suited our needs for a group of 12. Decent (15-20 min) walk to Bourbon St.
Only down side was that the heat in the front room kept turning off so it was pretty cold downstairs.
Over all a great stay and would definitely stay again in the warmer months.

Awesome location, perfect house for a large group
Our group of 14 had a great weekend at this property. The house is walking distance to both Bourbon and Frenchman areas and had plenty of room for everyone. The pool and courtyard set this property apart from other rentals we looked at, and management made the rental process easy.

Nice home in a convenient location. Good communication leading up to the trip as well.
