The art-filled home features 11 foot ceilings throughout, beautiful molding, a spacious living room, dining room and kitchen, four and a half bathrooms, a spacious back porch for guests, a front porch on Carrollton Ave, and huge backyard.

The decor strives to be a cozy, funky version of classic New Orleans, with kitsch alongside original art, elegance alongside a feeling of homey comfort. We want the house to be clean and pleasant, but without a sense that guests should be afraid to touch anything.

Living area includes:
* 4 Queen size beds
* 1 Full size bed
* 2 Twin size beds
* Ceiling fans
* Wireless Internet
* Central AC/Heat
* Television (with Netflix, Hulu, ESPN, Fox Sports Networks, & all major networks)

The charm of the building, the convenient location, and friendly, attentive, knowledgeable hosts make the Okra Inn the perfect place for your group to fall in love with New Orleans.

French Quarter Festival 2024
The Okra Inn was a great festival house for our group 7. Some of us ran up and down the stairs (all of the bedrooms were upstairs) and some of us climbed the stairs slowly . . . Every morning we gathered around the roomy island/bar to have fun cooking breakfast and COFFEE TOGETHER. These original NOLA houses have some stories to tell and the Okra Inn was intriguing in that way. It was colorful, clean, and comfortable, especially the rocking chairs on the front porch. The property hosts, Lindsay and Adam, were friendly and responsive. We all loved our time together at the Okra Inn. See you soon, Mercedes

Amazing place
This vrbo was very cute and aesthetic. Lots of space and in a great location to access areas like Jackson Sq and Downtown NOLA. The house had a sweet southern charm and definitely lived up to New Orleans reputation. I was so thrilled with our stay and our hosts were incredibly accommodating and have a very lovely home.

Great spot for a family
In NOLA for a family reunion, staying here with other family at the Iberville location about 6 blocks (walking distance) away, Hosts very helpful and accommodating. Wonderful space allowing for both togetherness and privacy. Near streetcar, shopping for staples, and numerous eating options. We’d do it all again.

Great Location
This is a well maintained, clean, perfectly located Inn. The owners were friendly and helpful. Off street parking on Carrollton just south of Canal made for easy access to all the places we needed to be. Mostly Jazz Fest. Comfortable beds and plenty of room for the 8 of us. We will definitely be back... Thanks Lindsay and Adam...and Bingo
