Jean Lafitte House
New Orleans, Louisiana
Jean Lafitte, the notorious pirate and patriot of the Caribbean, is the namesake of this New Orleans locale. The two brick buildings, built in 1831 by Lafitte's fierce captain Rene Beluche, have been completely restored, and living areas have been elegantly furnished. Nestled in the residential area of the French Quarter, Jean Lafitte House provides a quiet spot to soak in the whirlpool, and relax before exploring the rambunctious streets of the Quarter. Numerous shops and restaurants await you just a few blocks away. Take a stroll through Jackson Square or visit the Market.
Sit back and listen to incomparable jazz and blues in the neighborhood watering holes. The Riverfront Streetcar, nearby, runs the entire length of the French Quarter. You will love the history and ambiance of the Jean Lafitte House during your stay.
