About this apartment rental

Discover the Sailor Bear Hideaway, an homage to Baylor University's iconic 1950s retro bear mascot. The two-bedroom penthouse condo is crafted by dedicated Baylor alumni who were looking for a tranquil retreat in the heart of vibrant Waco. See what past guests have said, "Great condo! We LOVED IT! Warm and cozy. Clean. Close to everything! Will be back!" & "Absolutely lovely!! Well equipped, elegant, clean and peaceful! Already planning our return."

Sailor Bear has abundant sleeping space for six adults—a king bed in one bedroom, two double beds in the second bedroom, and a queen Murphy bed on the wall downstairs—as well as room for children in a twin bed with trundle tucked under the stairs. There is a reserved covered parking space and additional parking available.

Enjoy the spaciousness and the views. Almost 2000 square feet on two floors, a farmhouse dining table that seats 10, a fully stocked kitchen, and a large den with a 65-inch QLED Roku TV and Bose soundbar. All powered by high speed (1200Mbps) internet service and whole home WiFi. And beautiful views of the Silos and downtown Waco and its iconic architecture.

Step into this inviting and serene space curated by Hale Home Design, blending simplicity and sophistication. Even though it is a newly listed gem, don't hesitate to secure your stay. This beautiful condo promises a memorable experience in a prime downtown location that's ideal for families and friends alike. The guest reviews are consistent and unanimous—“amazing inside!” “warm and cozy” “our third stay” “meticulously kept”.

Indulge in luxury with Hotel Collection towels, Nautica & Calvin Klein pillows, Lucid mattresses, and Yogasleep sound machines, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Delight in the convenience of a kitchen featuring TFAL cookware, a Keurig with frother, top-notch appliances like a Cuisinart toaster and blender. Entertainment is at your fingertips with Roku TVs in every room and a Nintendo Switch console in the living room tv cabinet.

Explore the city's charm within walking distance, including The Magnolia Silo District, renowned restaurants, and boutique shopping.
