A New Orleans house that sleeps 12: everyone gets their own room.
Most “sleeps 12” listings get there with five or six bedrooms and a lot of sharing. Each CastleDay villa has twelve bedrooms and seventeen beds, so a group of 12 gets a door that closes for every single person, plus a private heated pool and hot tub used by nobody but your crew.
The short answer
Twelve people, twelve bedrooms. That’s the whole trick.
A dozen people is where the usual New Orleans options start to strain: a hotel block scatters the group down a hallway, and most rental listings hit “sleeps 12” by doubling everyone up. Each CastleDay villa runs twelve real bedrooms and seventeen beds, so at 12 every person gets a room of their own, and the group still shares one kitchen, one long table and one private pool.
Pricing works the same at 12 as at 30: the nightly rate plus one cleaning fee, plus occupancy taxes; no per-guest fees. Pick your dates and the calculator shows the real price at the live rate, split per person, before you’ve told us your name. The Bed Map on each villa page shows every bed, room by room, so the group chat can settle rooms before anyone packs.

Common questions
Can 12 of us each get our own bedroom?
Yes: that’s the math. Each CastleDay villa has 12 bedrooms and 17 beds, so a group of 12 sleeps one to a room. (Room 12 is an office-bedroom hybrid with a queen sofabed; the Bed Map shows every room, so you can plan exactly who goes where.)
Is a villa this size too much for 11 or 12 people?
No: smaller groups just get more space. The villas host groups from about a dozen up to 30; at 12 you use the same pool, kitchen and courtyard with more elbow room, and if the trip grows, the beds are already there.
What will it cost each of us?
The nightly rate plus one cleaning fee, plus local occupancy taxes: no per-guest fees, so 12 costs the same as 10. The calculator on any villa page shows your real dates at the live rate, split per person.
