Perfect location for a Wimberly getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Spanish Sanctuary. The location is excellent and the house is clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the deck and watching the sunset. Plus, Hayley does a great job of communicating and responding to questions. Great rental!

Beautiful property on the river

We booked this property for parents weekend at TXST because we wanted to take advantage of being so close to Wimberly and still have a short drive to San Marcos. Very convenient to everything. The home was beautiful and had everything we needed. Love the view from the porch and the swing downstairs. Communication with owner was great and we really appreciated the dinner recommendation as it was fabulous as well!

Wonderful Weekend in Wimberley

This beautiful house sits right on the Blanco River. It is clean and equipped with everything you need. The view from the porch overlooking the river is so peaceful and beautiful. The town is literally a quick car ride across the bridge. Wimberley is the cutest place ever! It was decorated for Fall and Halloween and looked so festive. There are lots of shops and restaurants in the town square. All walkable after parking your car. Thank you for a wonderful girls weekend! We will be back.

Great location and nice house!

Riverfront location was perfect - both shallow and “deep” (4-5 feet) waters that our 7 year old son loved! Rock stairs allowed easy river access. The house is just far enough from downtown (very short drive) to feel secluded and relaxing. The furnishings in the home were super comfy - especially the beds and bedding!!! The kitchen had everything we needed and the bathrooms were very clean with recently renovated showers. We really enjoyed grilling and relaxing on the balcony overlooking the river! A very nice home with extremely helpful and friendly owner/manager. Highly recommend!

Quaint weekend getaway!

We loved our stay at this property. Perfect for a double couple trip since both rooms have king beds and their own bathroom. The tall ceilings make the place feel cozy but not crowded. The river was so easy to get to (only steps away) with both shallow and deep parts for swimming and paddling. Hayley allowed us to bring our fur baby which enjoyed the swim and surround nature too! The deck has some the best views! 2 MINUTES FROM DOWNTOWN WIMBERLEY! 5 minutes from H‑E‑B. I would so come back again! The only thing I would change was that the bathroom towels were low quality and the hot tub seemed a bit older and in need of some fresh water. But overall this stay helped us slow down and enjoy ourselves comfortably :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful stay at this property. The location on the river was ideal with a perfect swimming area in front. Perfect for relaxing on tubes or whatever. And literally 3 minutes from the restaurants in town.

Nice house/pretty property

The house was very nice with a pretty view from the porch. Access to the river was convenient. It’s very close to the bridge and it’s a very busy street. The noise was annoying. We didn’t feel like we’d gotten away from the city. Overall it was enjoyable.
