New Orleans, also affectionately known as ‘The Big Easy,’ is a city in Louisiana well-known for its wild Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) parties, Bourbon Street, and live music venues on Frenchmen Street. Here, one can find the charming French Quarter and the unique creole cuisine that is a delicious blend of French, Spanish, and West African cooking styles and ingredients. New Orleans has humid subtropical weather, which means it can get relentlessly hot and muggy for many months. Hence, it is a real luxury to find a place to stay that is centrally located yet comes with a pool for cooling off. To stay in one of these rare gems, read on for the best Airbnbs with pool in New Orleans, Louisiana.
1. Stylish oasis with outdoor seating (from USD 414)
