A New Orleans house that sleeps 16, without splitting up.
Sixteen is the most common CastleDay group, and it’s the size these villas were built for: twelve bedrooms and seventeen beds mean everyone gets a real bed (at 16 you’re one or two to a room, with beds to spare), plus a heated pool, hot tub and courtyard used by no one but your group.
The short answer
At 16, the villa feels generous, not crammed.
A lot of New Orleans listings that claim to “sleep 16” do it by subdividing a mansion, or by splitting your group across two or three separate Airbnbs that don’t share a pool. CastleDay is the opposite: a single, purpose-built villa where a party of 16 spreads into 12 real bedrooms with room to spare.
Because there are no per-guest fees (just the nightly rate, cleaning and occupancy taxes), the per-person math is simple: the calculator shows your real dates at the live rate, split per person, before you’ve told us your name. For 16 people, that’s a private resort with nobody else on site, and everyone can see exactly what it costs each of them.

Good to know
Common questions
Can one house in New Orleans really fit 16 of us?
Yes. Each CastleDay villa is purpose-built with 12 bedrooms, 17 beds and 8 bathrooms and sleeps up to 30; a group of 16 sleeps one or two to a room with beds left over, plus full common space and a private pool. The Bed Map on each villa page shows exactly who sleeps where.
How much does it cost per person?
There are no per-guest fees: just the nightly rate, cleaning and occupancy taxes. The live calculator shows your real dates at the live rate, split per person, before you’ve told us your name.
What if our group grows past 16?
Each villa sleeps up to 30, so there’s headroom. For larger groups you can open a second villa or take all three villas (up to 90 guests).
