Home Away from Home

We rented Christina’s place for a month, waiting for our first grandchild to be born, and then, of course, spending time spoiling the new baby. The space was so accommodating for our dog, for dinner with the other set of grandparents, and for family that visited in the weekends. It was a wonderful time!

AWESOME East Austin home!

This home is a lovely unassuming property on the outside with really cool Asian motif decor on the inside! Christina, our host, provided excellent recommendations for must see/do in Austin and she readily responded to our inquiries! She was a delight! The home was well-equipped with bottled water, coffee, and coffee creamer as well as stocked pantries though we didn't cook during our short stay. If we did, it would have been easy to whip up a meal in the nicely renovated kitchen! And the AC worked perfectly for the duration!! We highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Austin!! Thank you, Christina!!!

Great house, very clean & welcomingl

This place is great. We were in town to visit family and this place was perfect. We had out dog with us and there was plenty of space for her to run around. There were some cool water bottles in the fridge when we arrived, kitchen was stocked with coffee and the bathrooms had some soap & shampoo. All of the decorations had an Asian theme, beautiful succulants throughout the nicely landscaped yard. Everything about this place was well thought out & well done. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Austin.

About the host

Hosted by Christina Alfonso

Austin native for over 34 years. I wasn't born in Austin (Colorado Springs actually) but I got here as soon as I could (age 2).

Super chill-laid back, creative creator - lover of all things beautiful.

I love authentic, brilliant, considerate, heavily passion-ed food, ideas and people. And of course, I love animals, too. Dogs especially.

I'm a proud first generation American.
My father is from Cienfuegos, Cuba and showed me the beautiful Caribbean ocean surrounding his colorful country.

My mother is from Vientiane, Laos (family from Hanoi, Vietnam) and taught me how to be resourceful and creative in the kitchen.

Inside my home, you'll notice one of a kind pieces & furniture cohesively put together, collaborating my mother & father's cultures with some of my favorite artifacts and decor brought back from both countries - along with Thailand.

I've resided on the east side of Austin since 2007 and never want to leave! I've been hanging out in the Holly Street neighborhood since I was 5, attending Cristo Rey Catholic Church, with my family physician directly next door to the church. I've really watched the city drastically transform over the last 3 decades.

There's always something interestingly new to discover right outside your door. Just step out and experience it for yourself!

Why they chose this property

My vacation rental home is nestled inside of one of Austin's most uniquely beautiful and historical neighborhoods, Holly & Cesar Chavez near Lady Bird Lake.

There is so much to see, taste, cultivate, love, and never forget - during your stay in one of the best cities in the whole wide world.

YES! I know that's saying A LOT. And I stand behind my words, 100%.

Austin is simply Ahhmazing and you'll surely get a true taste of it's authentic home-grown culture while staying at my east side home.

I am very open minded. I love to get wrapped up and lost in deep thoughts and endless conversations. I respect & accept everyone for who they are/want to be in this short amount of time we get to spend on this planet.

LET'S LIVE IT UP, BEAUTIFUL !
