There’s a lot of anticipation around our big addition in the Big Easy. This is a brand-new destination for our team members, Club members and guests. As the official opening approaches, we want to make sure we share with you why we’re so excited about it. That’s why today, we’re highlighting five great reasons to add a New Orleans Resort stay to your travel plans.


Our New Orleans Resort building
  1. New Orleans is our first urban location

    This iconic city, at the mouth of the Mississippi, is known for a festive personality built on a blend of historical influences. You’ll find vibrant live music, round-the-clock nightlife, immersive museums and spicy cuisine all around you here.

    At the end of a day exploring New Orleans, you can settle into these spacious, luxurious accommodations with a hint of cosmopolitan flair. And we happen to think the views of downtown are pretty incredible.

  1. You’re steps from the best of New Orleans

    It’s all about location. We’re just a block from the historic French Quarter and Bourbon Street, for starters. And it’s only about a 5-minute walk to the riverfront, or a short streetcar ride to see the oak trees and mansions of the Garden District.


Pubs and bars with neon lights in the French Quarter of New Orleans
  1. Mardi Gras is just the beginning

    New Orleans always has something going on. Join the party at a big event like Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest or Satchmo SummerFest (in honor of Louis Armstrong). Or book a walking tour on anything from history to food to ghosts.


Delicious beignets donuts with jam on a table
  1. Beignets (need we say more?)

    If you haven’t tried one yet, you’re in for a treat. There’s nothing like sinking your teeth into that first beignet. It’s a warm, doughy treat of powdered-sugary New Orleans goodness, so savor the moment. Our favorite spot for this sweet treat is Café Beignet.


The list goes on…

There’s always a new reason to be excited about New Orleans. Keep watching for updates as we get ready to let the good times roll!
