Maison des Amis is a Caribbean/Creole residence overlooking lush
landscaped gardens, which lead to a charming white gazebo that sits
over the legendary Bayou Teche. Built around 1870/1880 and known as
the “Boudier” house, the center portion of the structure - a circa1810
two-room bousillage (adobe mud and moss) is the oldest historic
structure along with the “City Hotel”. The abandoned and boarded up
home was bought and restored in the mid 1990s. Upon completion, the
state historical and preservation department approved its nomination
and placed it on the National Register of Historic Places. Maison des
Amis is located in the downtown historic district of Breaux Bridge;
one block from antique stores, gift shops, restaurants, and cafes.
The inn consists of four guestrooms, each with its own private bath,
antique furnishings and direct access to the porch overlooking the
gardens and bayou. Famous Louisianan designers—Messieurs Peter Curry,
Robert Smith and Joel Theriot—designed and decorated the guestrooms.
Each guestroom has high ceilings and old cypress long leaf pinewood
floors, and is decorated with original art. Guests can relax in or
outside the enclosed wraparound porch, stroll in the lush landscaped
gardens or read the daily paper in the rattan rocking chairs in the
gazebo. Complimentary beverages and daily maid service are provided
with a personal touch. General tour information is available. Upon
request, our manager can create a tailored tour to meet your personal
needs.
