Holiday rentals with a pool in Bywater, New Orleans

We stayed at Pool Haven last week while moving our daughter into Tulane, and it was a fantastic home base for a very busy trip. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to Magazine Street, which made it easy to grab coffee, shop, or find great food in between all the moving errands. The house itself was clean, spacious, and had a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The pool was such a nice bonus—perfect for cooling off and relaxation together. Edward and David were incredibly gracious hosts—responsive, thoughtful, and so easy to communicate with. And Marlene, their sweet dog, was truly an angel! She added a special, comforting presence that made us feel right at home. We’d absolutely recommend Pool Haven to other Tulane families or anyone visiting New Orleans. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

My family stayed here for a weekend-long celebration of my birthday, and it was perfect for 10 adults - large well-provisioned kitchen, ample bathrooms, and large comfortable bedrooms. It's worth noting though that 3 of the bedrooms are attached railroad style, which was fine for us. The pool area was also beautiful and chill to relax after a few long days of being out and about. Highly recommend a stay here!

The house was just what our family needed for our trip to NOLA. The location is perfect. It took us about 15 minutes to get to wherever we wanted to go. There are plenty of restaurants and markets close by and within walking distance. The neighborhood was friendly and felt very safe. The house was just as described and was a nice place to come back to after a long day exploring. The hosts supplied so many things that are often forgotten by travelers. The pool was a welcome respite after a long hot day. The house provides plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. NOLA definitely has its own vibe and this house allowed us to feel like the locals during our stay. Thanks for sharing.

Great place to stay! The host’s stay in the other side of the duplex, so they’re on hand to take care of anything. The pool is amazing after walking around the French Quarter all afternoon!

he made sure everything was up to what we paid for and that we were all happy.He answered all calls and text if anything happened and fixed things right away with no questions asked.Everything was clean and well taken care of the pool was a nice plus to have in the heat it was very clean.He was friendly with us like he knew us and treated us like a friend. I would 100% come back. awesome host.

We enjoyed our brief stay at Nick's place in NOLA. For a family of 6, we were within walking distance to a park, and quick driving (or a longer walk) to downtown and everything we needed. We'll be staying here again for our next stay in the city.

Sara & Mark are New Orleans to the core. They keep a lovingly decorated and beautiful historic house, they love their city and they want you to enjoy yourself. So kind, so accommodating, so thoughtful. They're a class act all the way. The house is but a few steps away from one of the most beautiful parks in the country, and well-situated for exploring the most fascinating city in the country. Do yourself a favor and bring (or rent) a bicycle, and pedal all over the area.

This Airbnb is beautiful! We rented this space for a girls weekend and it was truly stunning. The house is beautifully done, and the bathrooms are truly something else with the giant soaking tub. The only catch was that we went to the wrong door initially and then realized the true front door was the one a little further back and to the side. The house is gorgeous, the pool is lovely, and the hosts were really responsive and helpful. We really enjoyed the location, it was close to Magazine Street and the French Quarter but still in a quiet part of town. I would highly recommend this house to stay in!

I echo all of the other reviews — great walkable location, but not too loud or crazy. The place was comfortable for 2 couples and had everything we needed. We went out for our meals so can’t speak to the kitchen essentials. Minor cons were the lobby/hall scent was distinctly unpleasant and when inquiring on early check-in, we received what appeared to be an automated reply that we would be notified on availability and never were despite no bookings for a few days prior to ours. For the price point and location, would recommend

The space was great, exactly as promised. Location is absolutely perfect to experience the French Quarter. Walking distance to street car and bus lines for easy transportation to other places in the city. The space was very clean and had every amenity we could have wanted. One bedroom is street side and can be a bit loud at times but the other room is secluded in the interior and was plenty quiet to rest up. It is a heavy nightlife area so asking for total silence is not realistic, but for the location it was much quieter than we were expecting. Overall a great stay as long as you understand your location and the reality of the area being very busy and pretty loud. Would 100% recommend this stay to anyone looking to experience bourbon street and the surrounding area.

This house was amazing, spacious, clean and had a lovely large kitchen as well as a beautiful peaceful courtyard and pool area. The only issue is that there was a broken floodlight on a lamp post outside the bedroom window that had no covering. The flood light was broken and shined light in every 3-5 minutes at night making it impossible to sleep in the main bedroom. I reached out 3 times about finding some sort of solution (even a black trash bag taped!) but each time I was simply met with, "this is a priority" but it was never fixed. Also since we had such an issue we had hoped for a slightly later check out - which was not granted. Other than that, we had a great experience and luckily the bedrooms where our kids slept were free of issues.

Kevin home felt like home thank you Kevin for everything

10/10 Highly Recommend ! This was my boyfriend’s and I second time staying here. Everything is as pictured and the hosts are very responsive. I’m already thinking about coming back the end of June. Thanks for everything and providing a home away from home.

Easy to find, convenient location, great restaurant directly below us, clean, spacious, extra bedding, the pool was a bonus. Would recommend.

I attended an international meeting at the convention center. I had a great 1.1 mile walk which was interesting (and safe) no matter what route I took. Perfect 25 min exercise each way. The apartment was exactly what I hoped for.

We loved our stay. It is a very cool hotel with a great rooftop and courtyard. The area felt safe and you need a key to enter the building. The place is spacious and clean and we enjoyed the balcony. The area is walkable, no car needed. Chris was responsive and proactive. He was a great host, I would definitely stay here again
