Charming Casita
We stayed at this beautiful Casita for a week. The home is beautifully decorated and equipped. Carla is a great hostess that will help you if you need anything. The location is wonderful and very peaceful. Unfortunately due to the summer weather, we were not able to enjoy the beautiful gardens. We highly recommend this Casita and hope to return. We also recommend Sorento Italian Restaurant, the food is great and nearby.

A lovely home away from home
Carla is a fantastic hostess and her guest suite is perfect! There is a large bedroom with a king size bed, a separate bathroom and dressing area/closet, a nice view of the lush patio and backyard. There is an additional sleeping nook with a writing area. Another half bath is also very nice. The kitchen and comfy sitting area/dining nook also look out on the lovely deck and backyard, complete with a cabana.

Highlight of our 2024 eclipse trip!
The property was delightful - homey, lots of outdoor space and seating, very well maintained and clean. The location was perfect - quiet, but easy access to downtown and the sights. Our hostess, Carla, was welcoming, attentive, and informative, without being obtrusive. We were welcomed with snacks and wine - perfect after a long day of travel! After the eclipse, Carla treated us to special eclipse-themed cupcakes! We’ve stayed at many rentals over the years in many places around the country. Very few could even hold a candle to this. We predict that we will be back!

Charming casita in Alamo Heights
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Darling cottage with exceptional amenities. Master bed was uber comfortable. We had everything we needed and more! Gorgeous yard area for enjoying drinks or coffee and we took photos in that area as we were there for a special event. Close to everything we needed downtown and at Fort Sam. We could have definitely extended our stay if we were able and can’t wait to come back again! Thanks so much for the great bottle of wine and chips and salsa. We enjoyed! Can’t say enough about this lovely home!!

Wonderful Rental, Location and Hosts!
We had a very enjoyable time at this stylish casita! Everything was clean, comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. Communication was easy, responsive and relaxed with onsite hosts. It was the perfect size for the two of us and could've easily slept a few more. It's an easy drive in to downtown activities, pearl district, etc., and then can return home to a safe, quiet and very nice neighborhood (where we enjoyed several walks). We also took advantage of the spacious backyard and multiple seating options to relax and enjoy the treats the gracious hosts had waiting for us. Gretchen also pointed us to some amazing wineries in hill country - perfect outing for a chilly early spring day! Don't miss a trip to the nearby HEB grocery store - "half food / half amusement park" is how they describe themselves :o) Iron Cactus was a great choice for lunch on Riverwalk - try the tamale pops! Alamo and Bluestar brewpubs were fun and for sure make a trip out to 5 Stones Brewery in New Braunfels; you'll love the beers and the outdoor beer garden is huge, relaxing and shaded!

The casita was just as advertised and a perfect stay. Highly recommend this host and the home. I needed to be close to the military base and it didn't disappoint. A short drive from the airport as well. The casita was appointed well for my needs, great coffee and a nice bed! Thank you ladies for the stay, we hope to come back!!!

Great property in a great location!
Our original plans included a stay at a hotel on the riverwalk. At the last minute, we decided not to stay among the crowds. We were lucky enough to find this property open for the 2 nights we needed. I am so glad we changed our plans. This property is everything you see in the listing and more. The moment you walk in, you feel welcomed by the details that go above and beyond what you would expect. The place was immaculate and the location was great, not far from anything, but away from the craziness of the downtown area. After a long day among the crowded tour areas, it was so nice to feel like you were coming home. The bed was outstanding. Seems like a weird thing to notice, but when you are away from home, you miss the comforts of your own bed. I can honestly say the bed was better than the one we have at home, and ours is high end. If you are considering this property, don’t hesitate to book it. You won’t be disappointed.

A great stay in San Antonio!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this property. It was well decorated, and the owners clearly paid a great deal of attention to detail in virtually everything. Simple things like K-Cups were generously supplied. We will make this our base of operations whenever we go to San Antonio.

I am a man of few words but the attention to detail from start to finish for our stay in San Antonio was a perfect 10. The owners were very personal and amazing with communication and making sure our stay had everything we needed. Hands down this property is one of the best properties we have ever stayed. If we return to San Antonio we will request to stay here again. Thanks. John

Visiting Son and family
We truly enjoyed our stay, the host check on us because we had asked to check in early and because of the weather our flight was really late. When we arriver we had a bottle of wine waiting for us and some chips and salsa which was great and on time since we had been on planes and at the airport all day. The next morning the host came to greet us as we were leaving for our site seeing and my husband mention how he had trouble at the airport with the type of mask he was wearing. So when we return they had a package of mask for us. The place was very clean and welcoming.
