New Orleans visit
Very nice stay for two. Excellent location as it’s close to ferry to take you to New Orleans/French quarter and beyond but much quieter. A few bars and restaurants in area. All good. No check in instructions received though and had to call when we arrived

Clean, modern, well-stocked, quiet
The apartment is light and airy, air-conditioning works fantastic. Nice decor and fixtures, appliances look new and work well. Bed was comfortable. Location is great, only a few blocks from the Algiers ferry. If you’re interested in enjoying New Orleans, but prefer to sleep in a quiet neighborhood, this is a good choice.

Good property. 3 things that frustrated me 1 the bed was hard rock first night was torture trying to get comfortable and fall asleep and it was also small for two tall people like me and my husband, also the covers and the pillow could’ve been better. 2 it was very hard trying to stay asleep or even sleep in after 6-7 am because when someone is walking upstairs it’s very very loud first morning there it was like someone was stomping around with heals. 3rd thing was had a hard time always locking the door every time we left and the window in the living room doesn’t lock like you look it but it will still open definitely kept me the last night I found this out. Other then all of that If you want peace and quiet away from all the craziness this is the place to be. Very convenient! Only a 5 minute walk to the ferry that literally only takes like 5 minutes to get to the other side we walked to the French quarter not far at all but it is a lot of walking ! So make sure you wear comfortable shoes. Taking the ferry was a lot more convenient then taking our car because you spend 30 minutes to an hour looking for parking and traffic is horrible. So if you’re spending your day exploring around the French quarter advise you to take the ferry and walk it.

Very nice VRBO
Perfect for us as we were visiting family and we only had a 5 min. walk. As we have been to New Orleans many times we are very familiar with the area. Very close to the ferry to bring you to the French Quarter or other points of interest in the city. Also if you have a vehicle, close to a supermarket! Bea and Richard very nice people and we certainly enjoyed our stay!

So close to downtown New Orleans. Ferry was not operating but there was a bus that went door to door.

Nice neighborhood close to main sites in New Orleans
We enjoyed our stay here. Algiers is a quaint town just a short commute to the French Quarter. Our unit was clean and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay.

Convenient to NOL
Unfortunately we were, both, under the weather for half of stay. But did enjoy the several trips to New Orleans and riverboat rides. Navigating the streets of Algiers was an experience. Housing was private, comfortable and adequate. All items worked

Not what I expected
Pros- Apartment condo, with separate living, a kitchen and a small patio/backyard . Cons- 1. Smart tv - internet was slow so we could not watch netflix or youtube. The tv did not serve any purpose. 2. Isolated area, it was extremely hard to get a cab to the French Quarter. 3. No hospitality from the host, the man did not offer to help my elder guest with her bag, which is not the norm in new orleans. 4. Came back to the rental to a barking dog who could have attacked me, the backyard should had been private to only our unit. I was scared to access the backyard the rest of my stay. I’m also highly allergic to dogs . 5.I had to wipe inside the drawers clean because of hair and dirt 6. The utensils in the drawer were not clean. 7. After I checked in the dishwasher was full of dishes. Strange. I visited new orleans over 7 times, i will not stay here again.

Unfortunately, we had a very negative experience with this particular guest. She refused to leave at the designated checkout time which is clearly stated in our listing as well as our info packet located in the vacation property. When she finally vacated the property well past checkout, I entered the unit and found bacon grease all over the cabinets, couch and counters. Additionally she spilled hot bacon grease all over the floor burning a hole in my carpeting. The rest of the apartment was left extremely messy with food all over the floor as well as in the bed. When I notified her of the damages she was very rude and told me I had “inconvenienced her”. I’m unsure how I inconvenienced her, as I did several extra favors during her stay, including staying at my house the entire day prior to her checkin, so I could receive and sign for her Fed Ex package. My husband and I try to go the extra mile for our guests, and we normally have very happy guests with many repeat visitors. I personally clean each unit with pride. Anyone who is reading this can see from our prior reviews that our property is very clean. I believe this guest is posting a negative review because I complained to her about damages, food in the bedroom, and was firm about my checkout time. As for the dog, I was unaware that this guest was terrified of dogs, and I truly apologize that my 10 pound poodle scared her. He is very friendly and old, but I understand that some people are fearful of dogs. As soon as she notified me of this, the dog was not allowed in the backyard for the rest of her stay. I would have been more than happy to assist her and her mother with luggage if they had asked me. If you plan on booking with us, please let me know prior to your arrival if you need assistance carrying your bags. Normally people carry their own bags, but I don’t mind helping at all. I am on premises 90% of the time to assist my guests. Fortunately, this has been our only negative experience in our 2 years hosting. Please do not let this review deter you from booking our property :) This guest was one bad apple, the rest of our guests have been pretty awesome!

Great stay
Bea's apartment was ideal for our short stay on NOLA. Anything we might have needed was available and the apartment itself was clean, comfortable and cool, and , boy, did we need the 'cool' when we were there. The location was great for us. Over the road is the levee, which was ideal for a morning walk, and at the other end of the road, a couple of minutes walk away, is the ferry terminal to take you over the Mississippi to the French Quarter. It was $2 each way, (or $1 for those of us no longer in the first flush of youth) taking away the need to drive into the city, and the problems/costs of parking. We were fortunate enough to meet Bea a few times and she was very helpful with local information. We'd be happy to stay here again.

Clean, bright, quiet, and handy
This condo is just as pictured -- light, spacious, and very clean. Plenty of lights in the bathroom, which is unusual. The owner, Bea, is very busy juggling her rentals, a retail business, designing and creating jewelry, and raising a 6-year-old, but she's still responsive and VERY helpful! Safe, very quiet location 3-4 blocks from the ferry landing.

It was everything promised. Enjoyed the area and accommodations were clean, bright and inviting.
Algiers Point offers the best of two experiences. Stay local for a relaxed, laid back environment or take the ferry over to the French Quarter for that high energy vibe. Both places offer incredible food and music. Excellent and reasonably priced public transportation makes getting around the area effortless. The condo was perfectly located making it easy to ride the ferry or take a leisurely walk along the levee to watch the river traffic. Stop by Bea’s shop to see local artwork, unique jewelry and quirky items. Kudos to Bea and her husband for creating a wonderful getaway place. We would definitely come back again to this delightful spot.

The condo offers a quiet, comfortable place to stay with a quick 5 minute walk to the ferry.
We enjoyed the peace that Algiers Point offers with the convenience of a tranquil ferry ride that takes minutes. Then you pull up to the action of the French Quarter, casino, and Aquarium. My husband and I enjoyed going over during the day and touring the city. We would then return to the condo rest in the peace and quiet before heading back for the evenings excitement. It was a safe, quiet, clean environment that we would return to. The owners were there but always gave us our space acknowledging they were available if needed. Recommend the culinary food tour, dinner cruise with Creole Queen, and Tavolino's Italian restaurant around the corner best food we have ever had.

Wonderful place to stay. Clean and beautiful.
Definitely recommend staying here. It is clean and well kept. It had street parking available so we took the ferry over to downtown. We also enjoyed eating at several restaurants on Algier's Point that were within walking distance. Loved NOLA.

Great base for touring New Orleans
We really enjoyed this place. We were visiting to see the sights (not to party) so this worked well for us. The ferry is very efficient (unlike the rest of NO transit) as long as you don't want to stay later than its last trip at night. The apartment is new, spacious, close to the ferry and adjacent to the levee walking path. The owners are close at hand if you were to need them. The area seems perfectly safe. Highly recommended.

Spacious New Condo! Fabulous Location!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this condo while visiting during Mardi Gras. The location was absolutely perfect for getting back and forth to the main district and French Quarter, as the ferry was mere steps away. We could escape back here at night and didn't have to be in the middle of all the festivities 24/7. The condo was spacious and perfect for the two of us. The bed and linens were comfy and luxurious and everything was fresh and new and really nicely appointed. Bea's shop on the first floor was quaint and offered lots of great items - I spent way too much money in there but couldn't help myself. There were a number of little annoyances that prevented me from giving the condo 5 stars, however. Upon arrival: had to wait in the rain to hear back from the owners to let us in (having the key in the lockbox or letting us know not to use the main phone number provided would have been nice); the TV wasn't working, until we figured out it wasn't plugged in, then the remote wouldn't work, until we found the batteries it was missing and put them in. In the kitchen: had to ask for a fry pan to cook dinner; then had to ask for a can opener; there were no dish towels, scrubbies or wash rags to clean with; couldn't get the coffee pot going the first morning and tried everything, only to discover the outlets needed to be reset (who wants to mess with someone's electrical???) In the bathroom: only shampoo, no conditioner, even though it said toiletries were provided; the full-length mirror was really dirty; and there was painters tape around the drain for the future washer, which didn't look really nice. Bea and her husband were very responsive any time we needed help, but I didn't like feeling I was bothering them. So no major issues at all. Perhaps it's just because the place is so new and they haven't finished up all the little details, or maybe I'm a little pickier because I am an Owner with VRBO myself. But my husband is already talking about coming back, and this will be our #1 choice for a place to stay.

Great little place in a quiet neighborhood!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Walking distance to two or three restaurants. Very close walk to the ferry, which will take you across the river to canal street, the street cars, and the French quarter. With parking spots costing about 40 bucks a day, in the French quarter, it's nice to be so close to public transportation. The ferry going across doesn't run until 1030am on the weekends, which caused a last minute change of plans when we had something to do at 9a in the French quarter. Just something to be aware of! The apartment is very cute and clean. Had everything we needed and was comfortable. I would stay here again!

Great spot across from the French Quarter
A quick walk to the ferry, this apartment is a great place to stay if you want to visit the French Quarter, and have a quiet place to return to. We bought a $7 transit pass for the day, covering the ferry ride back and forth as well as all of the trolleys. It was great being able to leave the car at Algiers Point and not worry about parking while exploring the city. Owners were responsive and helpful. Apartment is new and clean. My wife and I enjoyed our stay, and also enjoyed the local neighborhood of Algiers Point. We would definitely recommend it!
