Bird-of-Paradise Studio: peaceful + easy parking

Unwind in a stylish, secure guest studio located within our historic family home. Set in a beautifully preserved early-1900s architectural gem, this private retreat features its own entrance, a queen Tempur-Pedic bed, a full bathroom with shower, and a cozy kitchenette. Thoughtful amenities include blackout curtains, a smart TV, and ample free street parking. Ideal for guests seeking a quiet, comfortable place to recharge after exploring the vibrant energy of New Orleans.

Your private retreat is located on the ground floor at the rear of our home and features its own separate entrance for easy access. Enjoy seamless self-check-in via a secure keyless lock—simply enter through the gate on Jena Street to reach your cozy home-away-from-home, tucked beside our lush backyard. Maintained with care, the garden is a plant lover’s delight, featuring birds-of-paradise, orchids, bromeliads, fragrant plumeria, and sweet olive trees.

My family and I live on the upper level of the home with our young children, so this suite is not suitable for parties or events. We kindly ask that guests observe quiet hours between 9:00 PM and 8:00 AM. While we are mindful of noise during these times, you may occasionally hear footsteps from above or the sounds of children playing in the nearby backyard. Additionally, the ground floor of the property also houses our working pottery studio, operated by my husband and me during daytime hours.

I’m available if you need assistance during your stay, but equally happy to respect your privacy.
