About this property
Prime Location w King Accommodations Near Downtown
Charming space within this character-filled 1912 home! With everything you should need during your stay, this space offers you comfort and privacy in a great location. Just minutes from so many of Austin's best, you will have no problem finding endless entertainment nearby!
We have an expansive 360 tour of this space - check it out by scanning the QR code in the image gallery. You can use the floor plan or the navigation bar at the bottom to explore the house. Also, if you go to an outdoor space, look up, and click the cloud with the arrow, then you will also get a tour of Austin! Enjoy!
This rental is a small space perfect for two and is the perfect launching pad for your Austin adventure! Please note that this space is beneath the main family home and the walls are thin given it was built over a century ago! The family that lives upstairs has a toddler that generally wakes up around 7:30 AM and goes to bed at 8 PM. They try to be quiet in the morning, but you will likely hear them moving around upstairs during your stay.
We recently redesigned the entire space including a brand new rain shower! You get the character of the old home but the perks of an updated space! We made sure to include all the essentials for you as well to make you as comfortable as possible. With a mini fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and more, it has plenty to offer you! We have also included a cute yellow bistro set outside for you! It's such a great spot for enjoying your morning coffee.
After a full day of exploring, kick back and relax in the extremely comfortable memory foam king bed that is fitted with luxury hotel quality linens that are seriously comfortable.
Please note that the ceilings in the space are not super high in the bathroom area, making it feel a little low for someone who is taller. Please keep that in mind when booking.
Work from home or be entertained with high speed wifi and large smart TV. Stream your favorites on Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+ and more!
There is plenty of free street parking nearby if you have a vehicle, although not needed when staying in such a location.
Here are some distances to major attractions from the rental:
UT Stadium - 3.1 miles
Texas State Capitol - 1.6 miles
6th St. - 0.8 miles
Convention Center - 2.3 miles
South Congress Shopping - 2.6 miles
Lady Bird Lake 4.0 miles
Zilker Park/Barton Springs - 2.4 miles
Austin Airport - 5.0 miles
This is an attached, but separate basement portion of the house. It's accessible from the side of the main house. Guests will have access to the entire studio space plus the yellow bistro set outside. Your stay is completely independent, with no need to interact with the household above.
If you need recommendations, we'll be available to provide them otherwise you'll have complete privacy. We'll provide you with access information before you arrive, so you'll have super quick and easy entry.
After booking you'll be provided a link where you can purchase upgrades to your booking such as early check-in and late check-out, additional cleanings, and more that will make your Austin experience even better!
We don't charge a security deposit! Where many hosts charge over $500, and where you as the guest risk them not returning your deposit – Austin Vacay remains guest-centric by charging a one-time, non-refundable fee (already included in your booking price) which provides up to $1,000 of coverage towards unintentional rental property damages (subject to plan terms and conditions). This means a lower cost to book, and because accidents happen, protection against costly charges. Plan terms and conditions provided by request after booking.
Austin Vacay is proud to be able to service Austinites and travelers during these uncertain times. We have taken extra precautions to care for our guests and employees by introducing zero contact entry, enhanced cleaning protocols, and strict covering requirements for employees. We encourage our guests to review Texas and Austin’s travel guidelines and restrictions before making a reservation. We must work together to ensure a safe environment for everyone that enters our properties.
Located in the upscale neighborhood of West Austin, this area is characterized by its elegant homes, tree-lined streets, and well-maintained parks. Known for its serene and sophisticated living environment, the locale offers attractions such as local art galleries, high-end boutiques, and gourmet dining establishments that reflect the affluence and refined taste of the community. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the close proximity to Lady Bird Lake and other recreational areas, offering opportunities for hiking, biking, and watersports. With a harmonious blend of luxury and natural beauty, this part of Austin provides a tranquil yet vibrant lifestyle, making it a sought-after destination for those seeking both relaxation and urban excitement.
Scooters (Lime & Bird) as well as Lyft and Uber are the best ways to get around Austin, especially this close to everything. However, there are also a lot of public transportation options in this area (see CapMetro's website).
We have security cameras outside of our home at the entrances for added security and your peace of mind. We do not have any cameras inside of the home, respecting our guests' privacy.
1) No smoking allowed (of any kind) ($350 fine)
2) No loud noises after 10 PM per city ordinance
3) No events or parties
4) No Pets Allowed
5) The cleaning that you pay for is to clean the home prior to your stay. If you do not pick up after yourself sufficiently when you check out, you may be charged an additional cleaning fee - price depends on how long it takes to clean up after you. We don't expect you to scrub the home, but simply pick up your trash and put everything where you found it
6) Minimum age requirement is 25
7) If you do not check out on time (11AM) you will be charged an additional night
8) Please see the House Manual emailed to you a few days before your stay
