Just one block and mere steps from this mecca of eclectic shops, top-notch restaurants, and the quintessential Austin experience is your luxurious and quiet oasis. Your private entry to your suite is via a spacious deck shared with the onsite proprietors where you are welcome to read and relax under a lush canopy of ancient pecans. Once inside, you’ll be welcomed with amenities including chilled Topo Chico, Shiner bock, wine and filtered water, coffee/tea bar, and thoughtful treats. Your suite envelops you in serene luxury only steps from the lively bustle of South Congress. Your hideaway features an adjustable Tempurpedic mattress, luxury linens, two robes, a microwave, coffee maker and mini-refrigerator, free Google fiber wi-fi and flatscreen television. Walls of windows outfitted with built-in plantation shutters illuminate sumptuous design features including a sparkling Austrian crystal chandelier, exquisite Italian and Dutch antiques and art, and gorgeous mid-century modern furniture that grace the spacious suite.

Park and play
Lovely accommodations, well thought out arrangement for a small space. Had everything we needed and a few unexpected treats. Hosts were quick to respond to questions and provided helpful insight to enjoying local attractions. Perfect stay for the couple that wants to stay close to the action yet have a quiet retreat to return to.

Simply wonderful!
I can’t say enough about this place. Great location, close to everything and very walkable. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated. So many thoughtful extras that I’ve never experienced in any other place I’ve stayed. Shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush, shaving cream….all top of the line. The host, Barbara, registered our car so we could park on the street with no worries. Ample street parking and it’s only one block from Congress and it’s just the perfect location. That area rocks. So many great shops and restaurants. Loved it. Plus you have your own thermostat and ceiling fan. Barbara even left us a bottles of wine and a few beers in the refrigerator. Even though she respected our privacy I would’ve loved to meet her. My kind of lady. Thank you for a man unforgettable trip to Austin. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara and Robert Faires

Host profile image
Actors, director, producer, and writers Barbara and Robert have made South Austin their home since 1995. In addition to their innumerable theatrical shenanigans, we enjoy partaking in the singular delights of South Congress, Barton Springs, the hike and bike trail, and welcoming friends and visitors to the glories of Austin.

Why they chose this property

Within mere steps to practical and whimsical retailers, SXSW destinations, the best in live music, our home has been an idyllic place for our family. Walking to the locally owned grocer, barber, restauranteurs, and shop-keepers harken back to neighborly communities of days gone by; meanwhile were at the very center and soul of what makes Austin so unique and such a desired destination.

What makes this property unique

There is simply no better location for entering fully into the Austin experience! South Congress is the number one 'must see' destination for Austin visitors and is ground zero for SXSW and 2 miles from Zilker park, home of Barton Springs and ACL Fest. Despite its unbeatable location one block off of South Congress, Eva Street Retreat is a quiet oasis amid huge shady trees and charming homes that evoke an old-timey, small-town feeling. Your guest parking pass, which comes with your rental for the duration of your stay, ensures you street parking within steps of your door. You'll find sanctuary from your Austin romps in the spacious and elegant suite designed by one of Austin's most noted and respected architects.
