There’s
still no place like New Orleans—the music, the
food, the art, the architecture. And when you visit
the Big Easy and discover its past, its present and
its possibilities, Akwaaba in the Bayou is your perfect
home base. After a day of people watching in Jackson
Square, bargain hunting at The French Market, marveling
at majestic oaks and million-dollar mansions on St.
Charles Avenue, and savoring the flavor of the French
Quarter and nearby Frenchmen Street, return to your
restful retreat that is Akwaaba. Take a swim in our
heated, in-ground pool or soak your cares away in the
outdoor hot tub. Relax in a lush garden with banana
trees and a tropical fish pond, or have a swing on the
porch of our 1860s inn filled with gracious charm and
modern room amenities, including cable TV, CD player,
wireless internet, and telephones with private voicemail.
Located a five-minute drive from the
famed French Quarter, Akwaaba is a luxurious landmark
in the Bywater, a bohemian historic district voted by
MTV as America’s most interesting neighborhood.
Featuring six guest rooms and two cottages, each with
private, in-suite bathrooms, individually controlled
central heat and air conditioning, mini refrigerators
and antique or artsy furnishings, Akwaaba in the Bayou
offers our signature hospitality along with a hearty
breakfast. We’re open for group bookings year-round,
and we’ll help you plan an awesome itinerary for
your reunions, business conferences, girlfriend getaways,
couples retreats and social, civic or church outings.

room reservations are welcomed for the following New
