We adore animals at the Creole Gardens! Unlike most “pet-friendly” hotels and B&Bs, we don’t have a mandatory restriction on how many fur babies you can bring or how much they can weigh. Large and overweight pets like to travel too!
Lagniappe is a Louisiana expression meaning “a little extra” and it sums up our philosophy of giving guests a little more than they expect.
At Creole Gardens we have loads of lagniappe, including:
Complimentary breakfast daily
Mornings at Creole Gardens are easy, welcoming, and one of the most memorable parts of a stay with us. Guests often describe breakfast here as a real highlight, praising both the food and the friendly atmosphere that comes with it.
We serve a complimentary freshly prepared breakfast daily, with eggs cooked to order and a rotating lineup of hot favorites. Guests may enjoy dishes like shrimp and grits, cheese grits, creole sausages, Creole potatoes, 3-egg omelets, biscuits and gravy, and hearty breakfast bake casseroles, along with self serve lighter options like fruit, yogurt, granola, breads, pastries, coffee, tea, juice, and milk.
Served in our charming dining or step out into our courtyard, breakfast is about more than just what’s on the plate. One of the best parts of the morning is the chance to chat with our staff and connect with fellow guests, swapping stories, sharing local tips, and easing into the day with that warm, personal hospitality.
