About this property
The Red Bayou House, walk to City Park and Jazzfest, mins to the French Quarter
30 Day Rentals Only: LICENSE PERMIT: 20-RSTR-28281, OPERATOR'S LICENSE: 20-OSTR-00138
Bayou St John, in Mid-City, was named the 7th Best Neighborhoods in the World by TimeOut Magazine, 2023.
The Red Bayou House is fully renovated to have an inviting, light-filled, and functional layout, while maintaining the New Orleans' character and charm. Luxury hotel-like amenities, fully stocked kitchen, large dining table, wonderful workspace, comfortable designer queen beds, independent and private bedrooms and bathrooms (not shotgun style), and a wonderful private deck.
The house opens up to a large, spacious living, entertaining and dining space. Ten foot ceilings throughout the house creates an open and spacious setting. The living room has two deep and comfortable West Elm couches, perfect for lounging around. The smart tv has basic cable, HBO, Samsung Plus TV, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc.
Many guests have cooked Thanksgiving means in this fully stocked kitchen. French press, cuisinart coffee maker, coffee pod maker (coffee pods provided), barware, microwave, dishwasher, gas stove and oven, pots and pans, and cooking tools.
The guest bedroom has a queen size bed, luxurious and comfortable mattress, and a large closet. The guest bathroom is located across the hallway. There is a smart tv with Samsung Plus TV, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc.
In between the guest and master bedroom is a wonderful workspace for those looking to get some work done while in town. Flanked by two bookshelves, the workspace has a black granite countertop and a very comfortable Herman Miller chair. Next to the workspace is a perfect, cozy reading room/yoga/meditation/napping room, with a custom twin size bed. This room is perfect for kids or babies, with a pack & play and a ComfyBumpy for their safety. This is my favorite little nook in the house.
The master bedroom located at the back of the house is quiet and peaceful. It has a queen size bed, with luxurious and comfortable mattress, and opens to the back deck through French doors. The master has a smart tv with basic cable, HBO, Samsung Plus TV, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc. The bedroom gets a lot of light due to the horizontal windows above the French doors, perfect for morning people. The large walk in closet leads into the bathroom, with a wonderful glass enclosed shower.
Guests can relax/enjoy the private and spacious deck with cushioned lounge chairs, dining for six with cushioned seats, or lounge out on the sofa. Grill on the gas grill (propane tanks provided) and enjoy the outdoor space.
Please take care of my home as if it were your own. Please respect the neighbors and keep noise levels to a minimum during late night hours. No smoking inside the house. Smoking is allowed on the front porch and back deck (ashtrays provided). Pets will be considered with additional cleaning fee; only if pets are potty and house trained as well. It’s a residential neighborhood and I want to be mindful of my neighbors, so no barking dogs when left alone.
SUMMER DISCLAIMER: Hurricane season and the summers in New Orleans can be very hot and humid. Like most homes in this city, the AC system will have a hard time keeping the house cool at 65 degrees all day. Cancellations will only be allowed for named Tropical Storms/Hurricanes. Please be mindful of this when deciding to book for the summer here in our lovely city.

This house exceeded expectations. Gorgeous property, the pictures do not do it justice. We walked in and couldn't believe it looked better than the pictures.Very comfortable property. Furniture is so cozy, beds were awesome and the showers are incredible!So many small touches all over the house made this an excellent stay.Host was wonderful. Great communication even when I had several questions before our stay. Good location too. Quiet area but not more than 10 minutes from pretty much everything we wanted to do. There's a Whole Foods quite close if you want to order for a grocery pick up.
Our second stay at this property for the Jazz Fest! Host is very easy to work with, property is gorgeous and location can't be beat! Can't wait to come back.
Could not have been happier with our stay and will definitely be back. Both my mom and aunt were raving about it the whole time! Great location and beautiful home with everything you could possibly need. This is the one you're looking for!
We highly recommend this VRBO. It was very welcoming and cozy and clean and decorated with excellent style. Patio and landscaping was very comfortable and relaxing. Very well stocked with everything you could need. The location was perfect. The owner/host was available to answer our questions and also gave great recommendations for places to visit and dine. Our stay at The Red Bayou House was fantastic !!!
We've stayed in many bnb's and vrbo's and have been hosts as well. This property stands well above the others. Besides it's comfort, cleanliness and provisions, it's ideally located for access to all parts of the city.
The home is decorated beautifully and has everything youll need. Very close to town in a nice, quiet neighborhood. Went on a fun swamp tour and Amelie and Cohon a must for food. Celebrated my hubbys birthday at Brennans, home of the bananas foster. Overall great trip.
This was a great experience, possibly the best we have ever had with a VRBO property. Ninh was extremely responsive and helpful, the property was close to everything NOLA but in a nice quiet neighborhood. The property was well equipped and spotless clean. Just an awesome experience, we will be back. Thank You Ninh!!!!
We fell in love with this house. I felt like I was staying at a friend’s house in New Orleans. It is gorgeous and you can tell a lot of care and detail went into this house. City park nearby is a must visit. The host was very kind and gave great recommendations. We can’t wait to come back.
This was probably one of the best rentals my family and I have ever rented. No cost was spared. The house is equip with everything you can think of board games, dishes/silverware,fresh bedding and towels along with complimentary drinks and coffee. It’s located near downtown and just short drive to any part of New Orleans. Definitely recommend!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming home. The house itself is beautiful and creative, but also very comfortable and well outfitted. The location is great. It was our first time staying in this sweet neighborhood, and we loved it. Great bakery (Nolita), restaurants (1000 Figs), and bars (Pal's) within walking distance. Also very close to City Park and other great restaurants (Parkway, Liuzza's by the Track, Gabrielle). We would stay here again in a second! Thank you, Ninh, for sharing your lovely home.
Ninh”s house was exactly as described. It was within walking of many restaurants and City Park. Ninh responded promptly whenever we contacted him. The home was spotless and very comfortable- from the sofas to the beds. Highly recommend!
The Red Bayou House was the perfect spot for a long weekend… Had anything and everything you’d find in your own house as far as amenities are concerned.. Ninh has set the standard for future rentals.. Couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable place to start and end our days in New Orleans.. Very quiet street in a cool neighborhood.. Just book it…
We stayed at this property for the second time while visiting our children who live in the same area. The house is immaculate and beautifully appointed. The host is terrific and responsive. The house is in a great location for walking to neighborhood spots including Bayou St. John. Highly recommend this rare find!!
The place is absolutely stunning and our family felt right at home in this comfy home. This was our 3rd Christmas in Nola and by far our best experience. The amenities and incredible artwork are beyond the listing description and the place immediately feels like home. Our daughter got engaged on Christmas Eve which made it even more special. If it’s available, rent it! We will be back.

Beautiful home, great location!
We enjoyed our stay. The owner was very responsive when we had questions about the home. It was nice to arrive to a bottle of wine waiting for us upon arrival. It is only an 8 minute drive to the French Quarter and a short walk to City Park. My only issue was the noise from the construction in the mornings directly across the street and water coming into the master bedroom after a bad rainstorm. Overall, a great place to stay!
Amazing hostess with the mostest! Answered any questions promptly. Accommodated our flight mishap. The house is beyond amazing and the perfect Mardi Gras vibe!! The guest binder is very detailed and informative. The home is just welcoming immediately. Love, love, love!!! We are already talking about coming back.
This house is amazing. Photos don’t do it justice. It has so much charm and character, it’s big but also cozy, and it’s decorated so beautifully! Ninh was the easiest host I’ve ever worked with. Overly accommodating for our early check in and late checkout, and flawless communication.My only regret is that we didn’t get to spend more time in this amazing house because our friends live down the road and we spent most of our time at their place. I really hope to come back and spend more time here. You won’t regret booking this house!
Beautiful, quaint property in New Orleans. I've been to the city many times and this is by far my favorite place I've stayed! Ninh is very thoughtful and welcoming and the home has an artist's touch. I only stayed 3 nights and could happily stay out the month.
We came for the Taylor Swift concert like many others this weekend and we hit the jackpot with this property. Unlikely many hotels, our price was reasonable and didn't increase as the dates got closer to the show.

Ninh’s home was perfect. Our first night we never made it out because we enjoyed the vibes at the house so much. On top of having everything one could need and being impeccably thoughtful and aesthetically appealing, Ninh was an amazing communicator from the moment I booked until the end. I hope the house is available next time we have the chance to visit New Orleans—the bar has been set too high to settle for less.

We loved the rental! Great location. Great house layout and well stocked. The bathrooms and the patio were our favorite features. There was parking directly out front, but Ubers and Lyft were readily available. Nihn, the owner, had a chilled bottle of champagne waiting for us after our arduous trip from Hawaii!. Thank you, Ninh! I would recommend this rental without reservation. PG

About the host
Hosted by Ninh Tran
Real Estate Professional and transplant from the Northeast that chose to make New Orleans home in 2010. Love to travel and entertain guests. I pride myself on ensuring my guests have an authentic New Orleans experience. As a recent guest stated, "it was like staying at a good friend's beautiful house". That is why I enjoy hosting and that's exactly the sentiment I want all my guests to experience.
Why they chose this property
Bayou St. John is the quintessential New Orleans neighborhood. Colorful, vibrant, historical homes that run along the Bayou. Walk, bike, run, or kayak on the Bayou to City Park or down to the French Quarter. Centrally located, within 10-15 minutes to anywhere in the City. Bayou living like the locals, but be minutes from all the action. City Park, Esplanade Avenue, Krewe of Endymion Mardi Gras Parade, Parkway Bakery, Wrong Iron, Bayou Wine and Beer Garden, Pals Lounge, Broad Street Movie Theater, Wholefoods, Bayou Boogaloo, Voodoo Music Festival, Jazzfest are all within walking distance to the house.
What makes this property unique
Open, spacious, clean, bright, modern home with all the amenities and luxuries of a hotel stay, but feel at home and live like a local. Get your morning coffee and pastries from Mayhew Bakery, around the corner, and enjoy it from the on the front porch, back patio, or on the Bayou. Quiet but vibrant/colorful neighborhood. Close to it all (within minutes) but far enough away from the craziness that can be Bourbon Street, that you still get the full local experience. As a 5 star host, I want my guests to love the house as much as I do and readily/easily available for suggestions and recommendations while in town and make your stay most enjoyable.
