This smartly appointed apartment on New Orleans’ famous Canal Street has everything a small family or close-knit group of friends needs to feel right at home. Drop your bags and make yourself comfortable in the open-plan living space – curl up on the sofa with a chicory coffee and watch the world pass by through the large windows. The efficient kitchenette is well-equipped for rustling up tasty Southern-inspired dishes and the two clutter-free bedrooms ensure a restful sleep at the end of a busy day spent exploring the Big Easy. Your pad is conveniently located on the precipice of the French Quarter – you’re a five-minute walk from the throbbing Bourbon Street and fifteen minutes from the Steamboat Natchez and the tranquil City Park. After tucking into authentic gumbo in a longstanding Creole restaurant, head back to your pad for a glass of chilled wine on the patio as the sun starts to set.
