Birthdays · New Orleans
A milestone birthday house in New Orleans for the whole group.
A 30th, 40th or 50th is often the weekend the whole circle travels together. CastleDay gives that group one house with a private heated pool, a dining table for 18, and a real bed for everyone who said yes.
The short answer
A birthday weekend in one house.
Milestone birthdays gather people who do not all know each other yet, and one house works better than a hotel block for that: one kitchen, one pool, one dining table. Each CastleDay villa sleeps up to 30 across 12 bedrooms and 17 beds, with a heated pool, hot tub, courtyard and turf lawn no other group shares. CastleDay is licensed as a hotel: inspected, legal, city permit 24-XSTR-24029.
The birthday dinner can happen at the villa or out. At the villa: the kitchen has double refrigerators and dishwashers, the dining table seats 18, the courtyard holds the toast, and the XL TVs inside and out are next to the pool. Out: the ride to the Quarter or Frenchmen Street is about ten minutes, and the team can point you to restaurants that seat the whole group.
One villa hosted three milestone birthdays in a single weekend: twenty friends, one house, three cakes.
The bedroom floor plans and the bed list by room are on every villa page, so rooms can be settled before the flights land. Outside vendors you book yourself (decorators, bartenders, a private chef) are welcome and come to the villa. A crawfish boil or a brass band for the courtyard books through us. One note: the block is residential, so outdoor quiet hours run 10pm to 8am. The living rooms and media lounge are open as late as you like.
The price you see is the total for the whole stay, before taxes. We don’t charge per guest, so adding people doesn’t change it. The per-person share usually drops as the guest list grows. Pick your dates and the calculator shows the live price split per person before you enter your name.

Good to know
Common questions
Where can a big group celebrate a milestone birthday in New Orleans?
In one villa: one kitchen, one pool, one table for the dinner. CastleDay sleeps up to 30 per villa in the Bywater, ten minutes from the French Quarter by car, with the pool and courtyard used only by your group.
Can we host the birthday dinner at the villa?
Yes. The dining table seats 18, the kitchen has double refrigerators and dishwashers, and the courtyard holds the toast. Outside vendors you book yourself are welcome and come to the villa. A crawfish boil or a brass band books through us.
How many people can stay?
One villa takes groups from about a dozen up to 30, everyone in a real bed across 12 bedrooms and 17 beds. Free queen air mattresses are available if you ask ahead of time; they come with an electric pump, so they are easy to inflate. A bigger list takes a second villa or all three, up to 90.
What will it cost each of us?
The price you see is the total for the whole stay, before taxes. We don’t charge per guest, so adding people doesn’t change it. Pick your dates and the calculator shows the live price split per person before you enter your name.
Can we decorate?
Yes. Banners, balloons and table setups are fine, and decorators you hire come to the villa. Everything needs to come down at the end of the stay.
Can the party go late?
Inside, yes. The living rooms and media lounge are open as late as you like. Outside, the block is residential, so outdoor quiet hours run 10pm to 8am. The hot tub stays open too, at a lower volume after 10.
