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 person, plus a private heated pool and hot tub that only your group uses.
The short answer
Twelve people, twelve bedrooms.
A dozen people is where the usual New Orleans options start to strain. A hotel block spreads the group down a hallway, and most rental listings reach “sleeps 12” by doubling everyone up. Each CastleDay villa has 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 dining table and one private pool.
Pricing works the same at 12 as at 30. 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. The bedroom floor plans and the bed list by room are on each villa page, so you can settle rooms before anyone packs.

Good to know
Common questions
Can 12 of us each get our own bedroom?
Yes. 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 and a hall bath. The bedroom floor plans and the bed list by room show every room, so you can plan who goes where.
Is a villa this size too much for 11 or 12 people?
No. Smaller groups 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 room, and if the trip grows, the beds are already there.
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. The calculator on any villa page shows your dates at the live rate, split per person.
