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 $400 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 South Austin, this lively and eclectic neighborhood is known for its unique blend of creativity and culture. The area boasts a diverse range of attractions, including the famous South Congress Avenue (SoCo), where locals and visitors can find an array of boutique shops, art galleries, music venues, and a wide variety of dining options. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby parks and trails that offer opportunities for hiking, biking, and enjoying the scenic views of the city. With a mix of historic charm and modern flair, the neighborhood attracts a youthful and artistic crowd, providing a vibrant urban experience. Overall, this part of Austin is a hotspot for anyone seeking to explore the heart and soul of the city's distinctive culture and lifestyle.

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 property at the entrances for added security and your peace of mind. We do not have any cameras inside, 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) Feel free to inquire about bringing your dogs along. We allow a maximum of two small dogs, each weighing 35 lbs or less. Unfortunately, cats are not permitted. There is a one-time pet cleaning fee of $85. Please inform us in advance if you plan to bring a dog so we can prepare the necessary cleaning supplies to eliminate allergens before the next guest arrives. If we do not receive notice at least 48 hours before your check-in, the fee will be $105. While staying with us, dogs must be crated when left alone, should not climb on furniture, and must not be left outside unattended. Owners are responsible for any damages caused.
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

Perfect for me
the location was perfect for access to the Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Park and my workshop at Casa De Luz. The apartment was clean and the bed comfy. While parking is generally an issue in Austin I found there was always a space in the designated parking areas. I didn't use the kitchen but it appeared to be sufficiently stocked with all that would be needed for simple cooking and eating. The hosts were very responsive and supportive.

Expedia and/or Vrbo provided the wrong address on the Vrbo app. The address on the app gave the wrong apartment unit causing us to spend time trying to get into the wrong unit. The support team was able to rectify this by telling us the correct apartment unit.

Great location!
I was in town for work and needed a location near my office. The added bonus was how close it was to the trail system, so I easily was able to get a morning run in too!

Quiet Spot for SXSW Visit
Peaceful spot in a quiet apartment building, good for 1-2 people. Bike share station steps away, just check the route because some parts of the area are very hilly!

Excellent location, modest accomodities
We had a nice stay. The apartment was easily accessible in the building and parking was convenient. We had plans to attend the Trail of Lights at Zilker and appreciated the walking distance to entry. The closet in the bedroom was very spacious and provided a perfect space for our daughter's pack n play that was out of the way, but safe and close. The cleaning brushes provided under the sink (we needed to clean sippy cups/toddler plates we brought) were brown and disgusting so we went and bought our own. The couch is super low to the ground, but comfortable overall. The parking pass does not match the image provided in the arrival instructions, but overall convenience of the location was why we stayed and that was achieved.

Great location, marvelous host, well stocked essentials
This comfortable apartment "checks all of the boxes". The location is wonderful -within walking distance of Zilker Park and short car ride to everything. The host was not only easy to access but also thoughtful - essentials like paper towels, soap, etc. were abundant. Thanks for a great vacation.

Great one bedroom!
Overall, we loved staying here. The apartment is on the ground floor and easy to access. Parking was convenient. The space was clean, comfortable, and the little courtyard outside was cute. The only concern is one of the neighbor's dogs was a bit noisy but, overall, a great place to stay.

Cozy place
The house is very cozy and relaxing. Everything need is provided for daily life. Only one issun is toilet. When I checked in, toilet doesn't flush. Owner tried to solve this issue, but it was solved next day. I couldn't use toilet during oneday. But other than that it was perfect.
