Holiday rentals with a pool in Gretna

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.

We had an amazing time here! The house and hosts were amazing! Everything was clean and comfortable and we felt very taken care of. Highly recommend!

If you are ok with something close to everything, but not in the middle of anything, then rent this place. It is lovely, Deborah was lovely. It was comfortable, it was easy, it was great place to spend the weekend. To be clear we were not there to party and did not want to be in middle of the French quarter. So if you are, then maybe this is not the right place for you. But we were never more than 10-15 minutes from anywhere we wanted to go, and for us it was perfect.

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.

We loved Alleshia’s place and she was a great host! This was our second time staying here and we would definitely stay here again the next time we visit NOLA!

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!

This was our second time staying at one of Thomas' properties, and we had another great stay. The home is beautifully decorated and maintained, and has everything you need for an easy and enjoyable stay. Thomas was very accommodating with check-in time and our last-minute request for a pack n' play -- a fantastic host! We found the neighborhood very friendly, and enjoyed the proximity to the Lafitte Greenway (access is just a block away -- we didn't even realize this when we rented the place!) and local businesses like Flour Moon and the Broadside. Highly recommend!

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.

I absolutely loved the house. Very spacious, clean, and comfortable. I love that it was close to a local neighborhood and in walking distance of familiar late night restaurants. Thanks again for opening up your home to me and my family.

Great place to stay of you look to be around the main areas like the French quarter, the French market and canal st. Very clean space with everything you need. Had a great stay and would definitely come back.

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.

I loved this location did not want to leave perfect for our mom's weekend staycation

OBSESSED WITH THE POOL!!!!! (Only downside was that there were no railings so it was tough for my older mom to get into but overall the outside space was AMAAAAAZING!!!! Spent the majority of our time out there. The apartment itself wasn’t anything to write home about but it was definitely sufficient for our needs. Lots of mirrors so if you’re getting ready for a wedding like we were there was enough space. Book this place if you love spending time outside. Talked to the cleaning crew who kept the outside in top shape and they were so nice! Loved our time here and the hosts are very responsive and accommodating!

Couldn't be happier with this location. Its close enough to walk or take a 10 minute rideshare, but far enough away from the hectic New Orleans nightlife when you are ready to wind down. Would recommend this location to anyone looking to travel to New Orleans. WWII museum is a 5 minute walk. Great time and great memories made.

Nice, quiet location — approximately a 15 minute uber from anywhere in the city you would want to visit. Very clean and the pool was a great plus. Only note is that the kitchen is not fully stocked — you have to buy your own oils, spices, coffee, sheet pans, etc.

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.
