Our favorite place to stay in Gruene! The host is easy to get in touch with to answer any questions and responds promptly. Location is an added bonus. Can’t wait to stay again next summer!
This is our 5th year to stay in this condo and we absolutely love it. Very clean and is stocked with everything you need. Location is perfect and the patio is amazing. Host is very friendly and timely in responding to all your needs. We are already planning our next stay.
We always stay here when we come to Gruene. The location is the absolute best for all activities around the village. Moreover, the pool is a huge bonus as well as the oversized balcony. Furthermore, the condo is super clean and the host, Elisa, is very nice and will take care anything related to the condo in a moments notice.
Location was great! Walking distance to Gruene Hall, The Gristmill, shopping and other dining and entertainment venues! Beautiful views! Best of all, very clean and well-kept condo.

The location is amazing ! Being able to walk half a block in the morning for the best coffee or listen to a band and have a cocktail made for a different adventure each day. Great shopping. The pool is right out the front door, which is great. On the small side but refreshing. The beds were comfortable, I just wish the main bedroom had a king size bed in it. Overall we had a good time.

Thank you for choosing El Patio Grande in Gruene for your stay. The KIng Bed suggestion is a consideration. We will update the listing If so! You all were wonderful guests to host. We hope a return visit is in your future plans.

The condo was PERFECT for our group. Plenty of space, very clean and tidy, great location in Gruene, and beautiful view from the large patio. A definite return rental!
The cloakroom of property is great. All Gruene sites are within walking distance. The property is very quiet and peaceful considering there is a lot of tourist and attraction activity is Gruene.

Thank you for choosing our place for your stay!! I hope you can return again. The Fall through spring are also great times to visit!
We stayed in this condo a couple years ago and loved the accommodations. We come to visit a friend who has a home in Greune and like to catch up with her and each other. We love the location and excellent conditions at El Grande Patio. And we especially appreciate the accommodating patio! This has been an annual trip for us and we hope to rent this condo next time as well!
Host was very responsive to questions! Accommodations were great - only recommendation would be to maybe replace bed in front bedroom by the kitchen! Other than that we were very pleased with everything! Would definitely stay again!
The host was excellent, the property was clean and well equipped with items needed. The location was perfect distance to shops and restaurants in Gruene. We were able to walk to everything. The only suggestive feedback would be to update the listing. The listing says there is an on-site arcade and there is not and it is a bit of a hike to the river for the elderly.

About the host
Hosted by Elisa Racanelli
My husband and two partners are the brains behind this complex. We bought the land itand began development around 2008. Our hope was that families would come and enjoy all of the amenities Gruene and New Braunfels have to offer. A beautiful complex. No need for a car! Walk to restaurants, shopping and tubing/rafting.
