Welcome to Windward, a beautiful waterfront retreat with a private pool located just minutes from New Orleans and the world-famous French Quarter. Offering the perfect combination of relaxation, comfort, and convenience, Windward allows guests to experience all the excitement of New Orleans while enjoying the peace, space, and privacy of a waterfront home.
Many visitors dream of experiencing New Orleans but prefer not to stay in a crowded hotel or small downtown apartment. Windward provides a unique alternative. Located in Slidell, just about 25 minutes from the heart of the French Quarter via Interstate 10, this spacious waterfront home gives guests easy access to New Orleans while offering amenities that are nearly impossible to find in the city itself, including a private pool, waterfront views, outdoor living space, and ample parking.
Whether you're visiting for Jazz Fest, French Quarter Festival, Mardi Gras, a Saints game, a convention, a family vacation, a fishing trip, or simply a relaxing getaway, Windward serves as the perfect home base for your Louisiana adventure.
THE PROPERTY
From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the relaxed waterfront atmosphere that makes Windward such a special destination. The home is situated along the water, providing beautiful views and a peaceful setting where guests can unwind after a day exploring New Orleans.
The private pool is one of the property's most popular features. Spend your mornings enjoying coffee poolside, cool off during warm Louisiana afternoons, or relax in the evening while watching the sunset reflect off the water. Families love having a private pool where children can play while adults enjoy the outdoor seating areas and waterfront scenery.
The outdoor spaces are designed for enjoying Louisiana's unique climate and natural beauty. Whether you're grilling, dining outdoors, fishing from the dock, watching boats pass by, or simply relaxing with a favorite beverage, Windward offers a true waterfront experience.
Inside, the home provides spacious accommodations designed for comfort and convenience. Large gathering spaces allow families and friends to spend quality time together while still having room to spread out and relax. Comfortable furnishings, modern amenities, and thoughtful touches throughout the property help create a welcoming atmosphere that feels like a true home away from home.
The fully equipped kitchen provides everything needed to prepare meals, from quick breakfasts before heading into New Orleans to family dinners after a day of sightseeing. Nearby seafood markets and restaurants make it easy to enjoy some of the Gulf Coast's famous cuisine.
WHY GUESTS LOVE WINDWARD
One of Windward's greatest advantages is its location. Guests can enjoy all the attractions of New Orleans without dealing with many of the inconveniences that come with staying downtown.
