Escape to the charming embrace of our Tiki Den, a cozy hideaway nestled within the lush gardens of our historic Uptown New Orleans home. Here, you can unwind the Tiki way, immersing yourself in an oasis of tropical delight. Picture yourself mixing up a refreshing Mai Tai at your bamboo bar, then reclining in a hammock swaying gently beneath the shade of banana trees. As the day melts away, find serenity in our large garden cool tub, where your cares dissolve into the cool bubbly waters.
Our Tiki Den is adorned with classic Tiki decor, boasting bamboo accents, matting, and other playful touches that transport you to the heart of vintage Tiki culture. Please note that our den is located in the basement, with ceilings reaching a cozy 6 feet and 2 inches. The floors are cool painted concrete, softened by plush area rugs. You'll be sharing our family home, and you may hear the joyful sounds of our young children living above you.
Your bedroom features a comfortable queen-sized bed, a granite-topped dresser, a large flat-screen TV with a game console, a fan for your comfort, an iron and ironing board, and wall hooks with hangers for your convenience. In the den, you'll discover a spacious wooden poker table with four swivel chairs and a built-in snooker game, as well as plush chairs with a reading lamp for cozy relaxation.
The kitchenette is equipped with a full-size refrigerator, a microwave, a coffee maker, a toaster oven, plates, silverware, and basic kitchen utensils – all with a delightful touch of Tiki flair.
Please keep in mind that the Tiki Den is a private vacation rental apartment located on the ground floor of our family home. There is a section cordoned off with shelving for our private storage, and we kindly ask that you respect these designated areas. The courtyard and hot tub are shared spaces with our family and fellow guests.
Additional amenities include a hammock for ultimate relaxation, an outdoor dining table, comfortable lounge chairs for soaking up the sun, and a lush tropical garden that beckons you to explore its beauty. And, of course, the luxurious hot tub offers the perfect retreat after a day of adventure.
As our guest, you'll likely cross paths with our family as we go about our daily routines. We're readily available to assist you but will always respect your space and privacy during your stay.
Check-in instructions, including gate and door codes for self-check-in, will be provided the day before your arrival. Check-in time is at 4 pm, and check-out is at 10 am.
