'The Coolest Airbnb in Louisiana' by Condé Nast Traveler (2021). The Mazant is a historic mansion located in the Bywater arts district of New Orleans - about 1-1/2 miles from the French Quarter (30 minutes walking / 8 minutes by Uber). We have 5,000 square feet of indoor space and 9,000 square feet of outdoor space. Our home is professionally cleaned and sanitized using properly rated disinfectant for COVID-19, as outlined by the WHO. Over the past several years we have renovated the property, seeking to preserve historic details including 13' ceilings with plaster medallions, heart pine wood floors, cypress doors, and a 175+ year old oak tree.
