The Victorian Secret - St. Peter House - Downtown, Entire House! New Reno!

Sitting in the heart of downtown New Iberia, this beautiful, historic Victorian home was built in 1897. It has three bedrooms, and will easily sleep eight people with two queen beds, two twin beds, and a queen sized sleeper sofa. It also has a full kitchen, a separate dining area with seating for six, and music room/parlor. We invite you to enjoy the sounds of New Iberia while enjoying coffee on the front porch or playing the antique piano in the music room.

Situated next door to St. Peter's Catholic Church and three blocks away from the historic Shadows on the Teche, this house is steps away from everything downtown New Iberia has to offer -- festivals, dining, shopping, coffee, nightlife, and even parades. It is also a short drive away from Avery Island, Jefferson Island, and all the beauty that surrounds Acadiana.

If you're visiting New Iberia for a wedding, class reunion, the Sugar Cane Festival, the World Championship Gumbo Cookoff, or just a weekend getaway, we invite you to enjoy the convenience of our home. Special weekly and monthly rates are available upon request. Please note that the rental is for the downstairs unit only.

Awesome !!
The house is beautiful & well maintained. It had everything we needed and even more. The owners are easy to reach & give us restaurant suggestion for breakfast which was greatly appreciated. Due to the location close to the road & the train tracks it is a little noisy but it isn’t disturbing at all Overall our stay was fabulous, ‘’Laisser le bon temps rouler’’

Nostalgic
We LOVED the quaintness of a 19th century home and the location was great for area activities/meals. The house is better stocked than any other I’ve rented before. Especially waking up the first morning and there were coffee products available!! Score = Perfect 10!! The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space for several more guests. The only cons were the front bedroom is extremely bright, noisy from passing traffic and passing trains blow their horns in the middle of the night. However, that being said, the owners provide noise machines in each room and they work fantastic. None of that would deter me as I would definitely rent this home again!

We came down to spend a couple days in Louisiana. The house was convenient, easy to find and perfect for our group. Had everything we needed and it’s definitely in the heart of Cajun country.

We had a great stay at a historic property
We found ourselves in the heart of downtown New Iberia. We could not have had a better location to have as home base. Within walking distance of shops and vendors and no more than half an hour away from swamp tours and Avery Island. The property owners were very friendly and very welcoming. Overall would make the trip again, thanks for a great stay.

Cute house, noisy location
So the house was good, we liked where it was located in that it was close to down town. New Iberia city park is amazing, you must visit . There’s cool restaurants and shopping. But it’s 30 yards from a train that runs all night and since there’s no crossing guards at the tracks, they blare that horn non stop. Especially between 3-4 am The church about 70 yards away has a bell tower that goes off each hour. For some reason , at 6 am it just starts dinging, and not 6 times to let you know the time. It’s the towns alarm clock I guess and it will ding 20 times. Between 6 and 7 am I’d estimate at least 40 dings The house is on a major street and you will also hear thump thump thump of steroes and people gunning their engine I feel like the noise should be mentioned prominently in the listing as it can be problematic for families with small kids and frankly, anyone with ears There’s also an exhaust fan in one bathroom that’s so loud you won’t want to use the light in there I’m conflicted writing this review, the house is cool, its proximity to the things to do in town is cool. And the nightly rate is great. But dang, I need a nap

Authentic old house. Slept everyone perfectly. We loved it. Our only complaint was the very loud exhaust fan in the front bathroom. We all avoided using that one unless absolutely necessary.

Downtown, walkable
Four friends from high school get together in our own back yards to be tourist in our own communities. We ate dinner at Jane's seafood and walked to breakfast just a block away at Victor's Cafe. We walked to the farmer's market at Bouligny Plaza, Books Along the Teche and Fudge it on Main Street. The house has 3 large bedrooms with comfortable bed. It is full of old world charm with modern bathrooms. Central AC made things cool and comfortable. We enjoyed chatting around the kitchen island. Would definitely recommend this home.

Great place to stay for families in heart of New Iberia!
Overall great place to stay in New Iberia. Loved the central location with proximity to Main Street. Loved historical nature of home with beautiful parlor. Soaps provided were a really nice touch. We had to eat in more due to some health issues. And owners thankfully flagged uneven thresholds for our elderly family member along for our trip. Condiments and other cooking items provided. We flagged a couple of issues with oven and toaster and owners were quick to respond and try to remedy.
