Beyond Pleased

From arrival to departure, I was absolutely pleased. The home was just as listed if not more. The property manager was attentive. The stay was REALLY a home away from home. My family and I truly enjoyed our stay. They supplied materials for a day at the beach along with games for a quiet evening at home. I will definitely be renting again.

Great house!

Everything was just as described! Perfect hpuse for our family of 6. The little extras like the beach supplies and the board games were a wonderful touch. Beds were comfortable. Neighborhood is very nice and quiet. We have not been to the Valley to see family since pre-Covid, and this was soo much better than a hotel. Thank you again! We will definitely be using you again!

Retirement

This property met all of our expectations. We stayed here for one month while vacationing and visiting family in the area. The property had easy access to wherever we needed to go but was located in a quiet neighborhood setting. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our extended stay. Our guest host was extremely responsive, not that we needed much beyond what was already there. I will definitely consider coming back the next time we are in town.

A cozy weekend away

My family and I arrived to San Juan in the evening. Google took a straight to the house was a great neighborhood and very easy to maneuver the house which is furnished well and we have everything we needed to cook a few meals. The house was comfortable and worked well for five of us. The only downside was the metal frames on the bed, every time you turned in the night you also got the antiques squeaking, which was fairly unpleasant. Was a great place to stay and would recommend it for your trip to San Juan.

Truly home away from home!

I could not be happier with our experience at Casa Kenny. We live about 6 hours away and were in for a high school graduation. The home is IMMACULATE. It’s so beautifully decorated. I’m stealing some of decor ideas for my house! It’s so warm. We loved being there! Miguel is an outstanding host. Super responsive and soo nice! We will definitely be back and will hope that it’s available when we visit because we can’t imagine going anywhere else. 5 stars all around!

Very comfortable stay!

We stayed in this nicely located and appointed 3 bedroom/2 bath home for 2 nights as we were visiting more family nearby. The home is lovely, well-organized, clean and very comfortable. Communication with the owners was easy and they were very responsive. We changed our reservation needs from 3 nights to 2 nights (within the allotted timeframe) and they quickly adjusted our charges/fees. Everything in the home is nicely “labeled” (light switches, remotes) and the home was also beautifully decorated for the holidays! It was so nice to have a beautiful lighted Christmas tree to to home to in the evenings! Check in and check out instructions were easy. The home was very assessable for our physically challenged family member (we brought a shower chair for use in the walk-in shower). Everything was clean and with nice, upgraded fixtures. There was a lovely “welcome” basket with treats and a nice note when we arrived. I especially appreciated the use of the garage door opener which was left for use to use (helpful to get our family into the home in the rain, a shorter/safer distance for mom to walk, and I did not have to “jump over” a descending garage door - which I have done in the past at homes which did not leave their garage door opener for us to use. We would definitely recommend and would book this home again. Also, there is an amazing H-E-B grocery store nearby!
